reflect on the work you have completed so far. Does your LinkedIn profile
contain the following elements?
- Demonstrate your ability to
organize your thoughts and ideas.

ability to confront and deal with problems.
- Present your work in an effective
manner.

positions that are desired.

do not receive a 70% rating or higher on your first submission, please
revise it until you do.
