In 5 years? CVs wonβt mean squat.
Where you went to school? Nobody's checking. Worked at a Fortune 500? Cool flex, but... not the move anymore.
The real problem? Most folks are still out here playing by the old rules.
Buffing up resumes. Chasing big-name companies. Thinking a shiny degree = job security.
But yo β the gameβs changed.
Founders, hiring managers, teamsβ¦They donβt want polished.
They want proof.
π₯ Whatβve you built?π₯ What do you talk about?π₯ What have you launched, shipped, designed, or dropped online?
GitHub. LinkedIn. Substack. TikTok. Thatβs your new resume. Thatβs your real portfolio.
So, hereβs the play:
Donβt just build a career βbuild receipts.
Proof of work. Online. Loud and clear.
Every post, product, or idea you share is a little breadcrumb leading future-you to new doors.
The internet? Thatβs the new Ivy League.
But hereβs the key π
Pick one platform. Donβt try to be everywhere.
LinkedIn for B2B.X (aka Twitter) for tech & startups. TikTok for creatives. GitHub for devs.
Then just document the journey.
You donβt need to be a βthought leader.βJust be real. Share the process β the wins and the Ls.
Authenticity >>> perfection.
Start small: π A landing pageπ° A newsletterπ¨ A design mockupπ A Notion template
Something you can point to and say: "I made this.β
Then stay consistent.
One post a week. One idea. One tiny drop.
Forget going viral β just keep moving. Momentum beats hype. Every time.
Letβs build. π
