Requirements

• A LinkedIn account. Anything from an empty profile to a neglected one works as a starting point
• No marketing or design background required
• Willingness to publish, since a personal brand with no output is a CV with a photo
• English at intermediate level or above, since all lessons are in English
• Two hours a week you can actually protect for this

Description

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

I have spent years on the other side of this. I searched for people, and I decided in about six seconds whether a profile was worth opening.

Most of the profiles I skipped belonged to people who were better at the job than the ones I contacted.

The visibility problem

Your reputation exists inside your current company and roughly nowhere else. When you look for something new, you apply through a form and join a queue of two hundred, competing on a document rather than on a name anyone recognises. Meanwhile someone with a thinner track record gets approached directly, because they published for two years and their name arrives before their CV does.

This is not about self-promotion or posting motivational content. It is about being findable, being clearly positioned when you are found, and having something to read once someone lands on you.

Where this course comes from

A fair share of these lessons were originally recorded for recruiters and for employer brand work. I have kept that honest rather than disguising it, and it is the reason the course is unusual.

The search lessons teach you how people are found — Boolean operators, X-ray queries, the plugins recruiters run. Learn how the searches work and you know exactly which words have to be in your profile. The employer brand lessons give you a strategic apparatus that companies apply to themselves and individuals almost never do: audience research, positioning audits, communication plans, KPI dashboards, ambassador programmes.

What the course covers

Thirty-eight lessons. Six on the LinkedIn profile itself and on search, so you can see yourself the way the algorithm does. Six on brand architecture — positioning statement, messaging matrix, tone of voice, campaign structure, monitoring — the same operating system a brand director would build, applied to one person.

Six on presence beyond LinkedIn: Facebook, Instagram, GitHub, YouTube, Behance, Telegram, and how a consistent identity connects them. Six on content and paid reach: email, SEO, video, Google Ads, remarketing, social targeting, and the analytics that tell you whether any of it worked.

Then eight on brand as a strategy with metrics and a roadmap. And six on the payoff — recruiter logic, CV structure, interviews, burnout, and salary negotiation, because visibility that never converts into an offer is a hobby.
