Introduction of your own expertise, 2-5 min.

The goal is to introduce your professional expertise in a convincing way (=with arguments). It can be a generic introduction or meant for a specific company / employer. You can talk about your studies / research, work experience, strengths and challenges and language / communication skills. You could tell what´s especially interesting in your studies / work / field of science. What do you know already and what you´d like to learn. Try to talk about your experience in a concrete way: avoid jargon and use arguments and examples. For instance if you say that you have great social skills, explain what they are and how / where did you learn these skills? If a course / job / something else was a good learning experience, explain what you learned and what does that mean in the working life context? Think about your audience: what kind of information do they need? What´s interesting? If the introduction is for a specific employer, explain why you want the job and what do you have to give especially to them.

You can make a video with just your face and no extra material OR a video with your face + power points or other material. You could use panopto, zoom or whatever you want, we´ll talk about the technical issues on the course.

Try to be clear and use simple language and check the background. (no naked room mates in the background please)
