Re-imagine Your Elevator Speech
Most of us are probably aware and familiar with this standard and boring format for your 30-second elevator speech to use when introducing yourself. So in order to be different and do things differently, take time to think about the positive impact you’ve had on your employers, boss and co-workers. And what you done that has indirectly has led to greater efficiencies or productivity. So in short, try to use your elevator speech to connect the job you want to, rather than to the job description you have had.

Keep Learning, And Keep Your Skills Up To Date

Although, you might be doing good and maybe you just don’t feel like changing. But if you take this attitude forward, you might lose out on opportunities and be labeled as both outdated and lazy. Therefore, It is important to make your competition look better.
