How Being Data-Driven Can Improve Your Career
How often have you taken the time to think about your career metrics? These are the ways in which you measure your career value… Something you may not think about all too often. After all, you’re s focused on being in the right career and position that the data aspect of it all can fall to the wayside.
But think about this: How do you value your worth? Think about when you go to your boss to ask for a promotion, or when you’re working in a team. They might be measuring your worth differently than you do. In other words, their metrics might not match up to yours.
If you find your best skills aren’t measured easily, you can create your own ways of measuring what you do best. You can use Career Companion’s FREE library of career assets, values, and goals to figure out what skills you have that can and will be measured by companies.
When you use Career Companion, you automatically get metrics through answering career questions, identifying your career values, developing technical skills, and more. The more tangible evidence you have of your career, such as degrees and certificates, the more measurable your career value.
These days, companies are more data driven than ever. You want to make your metrics clear, and have a strong understanding of how employers are measuring your career value. Companies see candidate data as a more reliable way to hire, so you want to make sure your metrics and theirs add up. You want companies, clients, and managers to know your true value, and for your assets to really shine through.
Knowing your value sounds intimidating, but it’s all about figuring out your greatest assets, skills, and knowledge so you can present the best version of yourself not only in person but also on paper. And companies aren’t going to forgo using data any time soon — A Harvard Business Review study found that the companies that are data driven perform better financially. Knowing your data is imperative to boosting your career success, so there’s no better time to get started than the present!
