Write a Personal Presentation

  6 min
Available in 

Being able to professionally write about yourself is necessary in order to build a Job application, CV, Cover letter, LinkedIn profile or when applying for training or a professional certification.

A written presentation is usually named as a professional profile or more broadly “the about” section. Most of the application processes or online profiles require a well-written text that can express the best version of yourself, and most importantly, that can engage readers to hear more about who you are and what you can offer.

Being able to professionally write about yourself is necessary in order to build a Job application, CV, Cover letter, LinkedIn profile or when applying for training or a professional certification.

A written presentation is usually named as a professional profile or more broadly “the about” section. Most of the application processes or online profiles require a well-written text that can express the best version of yourself, and most importantly, that can engage readers to hear more about who you are and what you can offer.

A written presentation can be applied to different contexts so before going specific, think about a generic template that you can later adapt.

These are the aspects you should first consider:

  • Play with words. Make it funny and engaging for the reader to be immersed in your text;
  • It can be a good idea to express your past, present and future. You can start by wrapping up about your background, experience and relevant activities. You can secondly explain where you are currently and lastly you can share with the reader what is your goal, intention or area that you would like to specialize in;
  • End the text with an invitation for a conversation if the context applies. For example - Reach me out, Let’s talk!

Cases / Suggestions

This is an example of different categories that you can consider when writing about yourself:

Industries that you have worked with
International experience/ profile
Hobbies
Side projects/volunteering
Key skills/strengths
Personality traits
How are you as a colleague
Academic background
Work experience
Future goals/What are you looking for
