Get a Free, Professional Headshot: The #WayUpTour

Presentation matters, especially when it comes to your online presence. When you make an account anywhere — from social media to job-seeking platforms — your photo is featured at the very top of your profile. Because it’s the first thing employers and recruiters see before they review your credentials, they’ll be able to make a snap judgement: do you look like someone who could be the next face of their company? Or do you look like someone who couldn’t care less about your personal or professional brand?

Let’s be honest here: your selfies are always on fleek but they don’t exactly scream, “I’m a quality and qualified candidate.” Employers are only going to take you seriously if you put time and effort into presenting yourself professionally: we’ve found that candidates who upload a professional headshot to their WayUp profiles maximize their chances of landing a new position–and studies have confirmed the same results outside of WayUp as well. That’s why WayUp is coming to your school: to get you hired.

WayUp is the largest website for college students to find employment – from one-time gigs to part-time jobs & internships to full-time opportunities after graduation. Because our job is to get you a job, we’re introducing the 2015 WayUp Tour: we’re visiting 25 universities to give students like you a free, professional headshot, which you can use to impress the 6,000 employers on our site. At some schools, there will be hair and makeup touch-ups–and for guys, we’ll be providing quality button-down shirts from brands like Calvin Klein. We’ll also hand out incredible prizes from Zipcar, Jet.com, and more, and there will even be a station to take your own custom .GIF’s because, well, we’re just that fun.

So leave the selfies for Instagram and come join us on tour. We’ll be visiting 25 universities, and our first stop is Colby College. Check out the schedule here and make sure to RSVP – this is a tour you won’t want to miss!
