The Creative Strategist - 2013 Edition

MY NEW CV FOR 2013

What does this mean?

I have purchased a domain name befitting my brand: www.thecreativestrategist.com.au

It was not a difficult decision to make, but more so of needing to do more and continue to leverage.

 MOVING FORWARD

It has been a year since I have been looking for my dream role in Advertising as a Strategy Planner, but to no avail. I have had the great pleasure of making new acquaintances and getting my name out there. I have gone to the extent of claiming a spot in the digital space linking two aspects of myself:

The Creative Strategist & Daniel-Jacob Santhou

A SMALL CHANGE CAUSED THE BIGGEST OF REACTION

I noticed that on my LinkedIN account, my name and title were shown as:

Daniel-Jacob Santhou
Creative Strategist 

I thought to myself, that making a statement doesn't necessarily cause a chain of reaction or a desire to contact me or notice me as a person. I decided to try something small:

Daniel-Jacob Santhou
Creative Strategist - Looking for Opportunity   

LO & BEHOLD

I have since received a fair bit of attention. In fact, an approximate 70% increase in users viewing my page - taking a sneaky peak.

Head Hunters, Recruiters, CEOs, Managing Directors, Juniors and curious George's all began to chance upon my LinkedIN page. It was overwhelming and very rewarding.

Since then, I have had a lot of interest from predominantly media agencies, possibly seeing potential from my past experiences as an added advantage to their current arsenal.

I look forward to hearing about more opportunity. And I look forward to leveraging on them, to find what the best mutual fit might be between my future employer and myself.

I can promise this:

If you think I'm worth it, I may think likewise.

Cheers,

Daniel-Jacob Santhou
