  • the banner should complement the profile picture

  • have a precise bio that indicates what your employer would want to know about you which would make you a probable candidate

  • provide some specific links to your work; don't provide linktree as there would be too much info

  • pin the tweet that matters like a project or an impact you made

  • Share the progress of your work in public

  • manage time - aim for 3-5 work tweets, 5 mins each for tweeting, engaging; tweets can be motivational, pain points or educational

  • be social, and helpful, build your network

  • don't be afraid to reach out to anyone, direct message them, state your reason, give them reason for helping you

  • find what fits you, be it blogging, podcast, or video content.

    I resonated a lot with your share. Thank you once again Deni Tech
