Your Career Is On the Line If You're Not Doing This Simple Thing Having a solid online presence accelerates your career and gives you optionality. Yet, many knowledge workers are getting left behind because they're not investing in it.

2022 will go down as one of the most brutal years in tech history. It was the year when large swaths of employees were laid off, countless startups were on the brink of death, and venture investors saw billions of dollars wiped off their portfolios. Even large, seemingly strong companies like Apple, Meta, Snap, Amazon and Stripe have been impacted by the uncertain economic conditions.

That's unfortunate since many laid-off employees have to go back to the drawing board to figure out what's next for them. This is a grueling process for them, especially after they've given their valuable time and experience to a company only to be included in a round of layoffs.

Employees across the board are now waking up to the fact that their jobs are temporary and unstable. An effective way to future-proof your career is to build an online presence around something you're passionate about.
