In order to position and grow your personal brand, you need the right relationships and and opportunities to further develop your skills/hobbies/talents.

For example, if you are passionate about working on computers, you should consider attending a free college class on computer science. You can grow your passion by connecting with either the professor or other students in the class. You don’t have to be a current college student to take advantage of free college classes. You can start by searching for free college classes offered at colleges in your area or EdX.

*Bonus tip*: Start a portfolio (physical or virtual) and keep all certificates, awards, registration confirmations, emails, videos, etc.
