How can a blog be used to professionally present yourself in a job interview?

There are many ways a blog can be used to professionally present yourself in a job interview a couple of those ways are to show the interviewee how well you communicate and write. Everyday we hear that one of the most important skills you need to have are how you communicate and how you write. With any career you go into you will have to communicate with customers, clients, coworkers and your boss. Also, you might have to write up reports, proposals, emails, or memos.

A blog if written with all 5 c's can help present yourself professional in an interview by showing the interviewee how you write and it shows them that you have the grammar skills people are looking for when hiring a person. I was attending a guest lecture for one of my courses and the women said the first thing she looked for in a resume were grammar mistakes and if one was found she would throw it out and not even finish looking at the resume. This shows how important a writing skill is to have.
