Facing a job loss can indeed be a setback, and the typical response is to seek new employment opportunities. Marta Puerto, a Product Marketing Manager, followed this path after being laid off from her job. However, when traditional job applications didn’t yield results, she took an unconventional approach: she created a video to promote her personal brand, aptly named ‘Marta.’
In this captivating video, Marta eloquently shared her professional experiences and qualifications. The response from netizens has been overwhelmingly positive, with praise pouring in for her innovative approach.
Marta Puerto took to LinkedIn, sharing her video alongside a descriptive caption: “Meet Marta: The Movie.” Those familiar with me will understand that discussing myself is something I find extremely embarrassing. However, they’ll also know that I don’t easily give up. Job hunting can be grueling.
After submitting countless job applications, I realized I needed a more effective way to stand out. And so, I hatched a plan! Leveraging my marketing expertise, I created a brand-new website and a captivating video. This innovative approach allows people to get to know me better even before we’ve met in person.
Just two days ago, Marta Puerto shared her innovative video on LinkedIn. Since then, it has garnered an impressive 64,000 reactions and numerous comments. The clip is also making waves across various social media platforms, as netizens continue to appreciate her unique approach.
“We bet all those companies that rejected your application now regret letting you fall through the cracks! Wishing you all the best in your selection process,” shared a LinkedIn user. “That’s why I’m a big advocate for people to work on building their brand all the time. It pays off long term,” added another.
“If work this good doesn’t land you the role of your dreams, then there’s a glitch in the matrix. Already excited for the sequel,” joined a fourth. “If this young woman doesn’t get a job from this, then we are all doomed,” expressed a fifth. “This is incredible,” commented a sixth.
“I love this! You’re brilliant and I think you’re more than a PMM. By now, you must have offers lining up for you. But, I would think twice about working for someone else. I’d work for myself. You’ve already built a brand, with one video,” wrote a seventh.
