Hyping yourself is about accurately explaining the value that you contribute. It’s about saying, “Here are all my accomplishments; here is what I’ve been up to; here are the ways that I’ve been growing and will continue to grow.” You demonstrate to others why you’re worth it and you show up with the receipts to back every claim you make.
Keep a Hype doc for it.
A Hype Doc is a running list of all your accomplishments and successes. It’s a place where you keep track of your growth, and regularly jot down the things you’re proud of doing.
It includes: technical work completed, projects led or contributed to, mentorship and development, leadership opportunities, blog psots and talks revelant to your work, involvment in recruiting and interviewing, valuable contributions to discussions, kudos and feedback from others, significant moments of growth or learning.
Update it regularly (weekly?), it should be easy to edit and can be shared to managers.
