Creative Consultant

This job, a job focused on areas of personal branding beyond writing resumes, can be done on your own, as a freelancer, or within another company. There are temporary agencies that could help you get started on this path, but you have to be very specific in letting the agency representative that you talk to know that you would like to be considered as a creative consultant. Make sure that your resume is tailored to support your needs in searching for this type of job. If you’re going to give this day job a go on your own, once again tap into your social circle. Whether it’s for a fellow artist or a young professional looking to climb further up the corporate ladder, if you are good at looking at the bigger picture and advising others on how to present themselves and their talents to the outside world, you can make a difference in this day job, while being able to concentrate on your own talents and skills without feeling guilty.
