Since I don't have any work experience this is such a neat idea! Blogging really does help organizational and writing skills - especially correspondance towards people in other positions. In a way, we do have to be "team players" [blog tours, author posts etc.] LOVE this!N o v a - Z a yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06071319586825957117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-83248536328870051952015-05-21T02:22:46.974+01:002015-05-21T02:22:46.974+01:00I actually hadn't thought of it that way, but ...I actually hadn't thought of it that way, but really it does make a lot of sense.

I have a feeling blogging has a more negative feeling over here, like it's not something they will see as beneficial. It's not that I am ashamed about it, but I want them to take me seriously & I feel like it's not big enough here. I do agree with all your points and I have learned so much through blogging, that I might go ahead and put it on there anyway.Mel@Thedailyprophecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516514938771433319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523741214914719296.post-23480130311796546282015-05-20T15:14:54.024+01:002015-05-20T15:14:54.024+01:00So interesting, Amanda!

There's so much that I've learnt from blogging, all of things that feed into the workforce. As bloggers I feel like we work so hard to build a "brand" if you get me? And there's so much to it--a lot of communication and organisational skills must be developed.

I haven't had a job yet, but you've opened my eyes and made me feel better so that when I do need a resume, I'll be able to list my blog and skills I've learned. So thank you for this! As for skills and achievements I've accomplished through blogging: I've made professional relationship with publishers and authors and I've held blog events and Twitter chats.

I don't know if I'd want to hand over the details to all potential employers, I like keeping my home and work lives separate. But I guess I could think of a way to incorporate what I've learned blogging with what I need to succeed in the non blogging world.<br /><br />Dreams @ <a href="http://adreamfrommyheart.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Once Upon A Dream Books</a> Carrie @ Paper Bindingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07396201503445517599noreply@blogger.com
