If you are job hunting, a must nowadays is a profile on the world’s most popular professional networking site LinkedIn.

LinkedIn is not like any other social media, it is not a place to share photos of your latest holiday, your pets or your frolics with your friends about town. LinkedIn is about demonstrating your professionalism to your work colleagues, your boss and even your potential new employers.

Keep your LinkedIn profile up to date with all of your achievements from your work experience, update your certificates and education when you take a new training course, create connections and most importantly get endorsed.

Since you are reading this, I presume you re a student of the English language and that learning and improving your English language skills is probably important to you in your career and promotional prospects.

So, ask your teacher to give you an endorsement on LinkedIn to add to your profile

In this episode, I have a short interview with Tevfik, from Turkey, where we talk about his English journey and OET success via italki. We only had a short time for speaking and writing practice, yet, despite that, he passed and secured a grade B, enough to send him on his American fellowship journey!

KEP Episode 24: Turkish Dr’s OET Journey to Success!

Whether you live to work or you work to live, having a healthy work-life balance is good for both you and your employer.

Here are just a few ways to keep your balance healthy!

Plan
It can help to plan your time, making sure to include social activities in those plans, says Allaya Cooks-Campbell from job coaching website BetterUp.

Even scheduling a night in front of the TV is enough — it will give you a bit of time to switch off.

If you're able to, you could also plan to take short breaks during the day, and perhaps even use them to take a walk or read a few pages of a book.

Use apps to help
Cooks-Campbell also suggests using an app to block distracting websites during the work day — which might include things like social media.

You can then do the same in the evening and block work apps, if you find it difficult to stop checking them.

Be kind to yourself
It's important to be realistic about your work-life balance, and not to get too stressed if you don't follow your plan. That's according to Kate Eby from work management company Smartsheet.

Being kind to yourself, she says, can help you improve your mental health.

Talk to your boss
If you're finding it difficult to get your work-life balance right, speaking to your manager may be a good idea — although not everyone will feel comfortable doing this.

It may be that you have been given too much work to do, or there is a better way to do it — and talking to your boss could help you work smarter, not harder.

However, Cooks-Campbell says different things work for different people — so you have to find what's right for you!
