You can think of the Hyqoo network as a nexus for collaboration. You can connect with other professionals, collaborators, and potential clients at Hyqoo. You can think of your profile as your first meeting place, where you will introduce yourself and demonstrate your expertise as well as your personality.
First impressions are incredibly important, so you will want to invest some time and energy into making it as professional, polished, and personable as possible. Before you begin, you will want to get organized and write a compelling introduction. Doing so beforehand will ensure that your profile is as accurate and attractive as it can be. In addition, you will want to designate an office space where you can work and take meetings without distractions. With Hyqoo you can expect to be matched with clients quickly, so you will want to make sure you are ready to take video calls before you complete your profile.
Before you begin:
Gather your credentials
Just like a job interview, you want to make sure your credentials are in order. This means having a reliable work email, lists of references, and a solid resume. Once all of that is established, it’s time to get focused on a path forward.
Highlight your achievements
Your achievement highlights should always be in lockstep with the type of work you want to do. Also, the highlights you choose should be notable enough to attract attention. All of these achievements should be listed in your Hyqoo profile and in your video resume so feel free to spend time crafting the best highlights possible.
Craft an intriguing introduction
Writing should always be intriguing but the introduction should be especially spectacular. In truth, we are trying to do just that: stand out. Only by writing something attention-grabbing can you really give yourself a chance. The pools of talent are so large now that personality comes at a premium.
Pose for a professional photo
If you can swing it, getting your photo professionally taken will make your overall profile look more professional and reliable. People tend to trust those who invest themselves as they see it as you taking a bet on yourself. If not, taking a picture with your computer or phone will also work as long as the attire and presentation are professional.
