people will find when they search for you. More and
more, we hear that employers are Googling candidates
to learn more about them. When you have your own
website, you have an opportunity to demonstrate a
portfolio of information about you and to provide
further information (via links) so employers can learn
more about you.”

7. Essential job search tool for both academics and
professionals
“EPortfolios or personal websites provide students the
opportunities to showcase their best work and demonstrate
in meaningful ways what skills and knowledge they can
bring to potential organizations. The electronic identity
adds another dimension to the resume and cover letter
because it contains tangible examples that potential
employers can see.”
—Lisa Meloncon, Associate Professor
University of Cincinnati

Create an ePortfolio
…over half of hiring managers would rather see
a candidate with a personal website than any
other form of personal branding, although less
than 10% of candidates actually have one.
