An employer is not the same as a slave owner

I am now turning to all specialists. The employer buys your time and work results, pays for the functions you perform. He does not buy your experience, knowledge and skills, even if you get them in this position. At work you have to be selfish, think first of all about yourself, and not about the company. Treats himself as a business project and collects all his achievements in a folder, which usually go along with the words: implemented, increased, reduced, improved or developed.

Show off your achievements on your resume, on social media, talk about yourself at networking events, and speak at conferences.

If the company prohibits you from mentioning where you work, what you do, or making comments as an expert, then you must understand and realize that you are missing out on great job offers and income growth. Of course, there may be such rules, but the payment for such vicissitudes should be greater.

I am now turning to companies and specialists who work for themselves

Everything here is the same as I mentioned above. If the client requires anonymity, then this again should cost more. Here the lost profit is directly the profit that you will not receive because did not use the results of work with the client as a marketing tool. Namely, with the help of the case they did not attract other clients and did not earn money.

We worked with the client, packaged the case and published it on the website, on social networks, or took it to industry media.

Yes, at least indicate the client’s logo on the website with whom we cooperate. This is a minimum task. If you understand why are cases needed?, then the cost of their production, which starts from 25,000 rubles, no longer seems too high.

P.S. In the photo I am smiling after having just fallen waist-deep into a swamp.
