Experts on careers and profiling – Rethinking career paths

Profiles with personality and why CVs look different today

In the past, the ideal CV was considered to be as straightforward and complete as possible. Education, first job, promotion within the company – step by step to the top. But the world of work has changed. Digitalisation, globalisation and new working models mean that careers today are much more diverse.

Today, it is no longer just about titles or positions, but about meaningfulness, personal development and the question: What really suits me? Many successful people do not have a ‘perfect’ CV – but an exciting one. Detours, changes of industry or new perspectives are part of successful career paths.

Career & profiling – recognising your own strengths, making them visible and positioning yourself consciously

In a world full of opportunities, it is becoming increasingly important to develop a clear profile.

• Who am I?
• What do I stand for?
• What skills do I have to offer?

This is exactly where profiling comes in: consciously examining your own skills, values and goals. It’s not just about demonstrating professional qualifications, but also personality, such as:

• Self-reflection and personal development
• Building networks and relationships
• Negotiation skills in conversations and career steps
• Clear positioning in the professional environment

A career is not only built on performance – but also on visibility and communication.

LinkedIn – the modern CV

Whereas the traditional CV used to be the most important career document, LinkedIn now plays a central role. Your profile has long been more than just a digital business card.

A good LinkedIn profile can be:

• CV and portfolio
• a networking platform
• a personal branding tool
• space for dialogue about ideas and expertise

Those who make their experiences, projects and perspectives visible create trust – and are often found by the very people with whom new opportunities arise.

Today, career also means meaning

More and more people are asking themselves a key question:
Why am I doing this job?

Meaning, values and personal development are playing an increasingly important role. Careers are increasingly seen as part of shaping one’s own life and not just as an economic necessity.

Companies that understand this development create working environments in which people can grow, take on responsibility and develop their strengths.

The career of the future is personal

What is the perfect CV? Does it even exist? What is more important is to develop a clear profile, become visible and have the courage to go your own way.

Today, a career is less of a ladder and more of a journey with many directions and possibilities.
