Method. This article reviews the most important and recent scientific literature on the use of this type of resources designed to promote people?s professional qualifications. Results. The main purpose of this work is to expose the different methodological instruments that have been used to deal with our object of study (online digital tools for professional self-promotion), as well as their conclusions, in order to assess the State of the Art in this subject matter.
