Alright so I forgot to do this yesterday so I’m going to go ahead and do it now. Online branding is something that I feel like a lot of people don’t necessarily pay much attention to. College was really the turning point for me, this was when people really began to emphasize being careful with what you say and do on the internet because future employers may see it.
As far as my online presence is concerned, I have an account on most of the big name social media sites. My buddy, however, was unable to really find anything about me. Apparently there are quite a few people that have the same first and last name as me. I have most of the privacy settings on my accounts, on. I don’t really post anything exciting, just a lot of pictures of my dogs 🙂
My goals for this semester are to start using my twitter more often and posting articles and making tweets that pertain more to my career interests as I see twitter as yet another option for networking with people. I’m also going to create a linkedin page in order to expand my network. So I guess you could say that I really only have one major goal, to network and present myself as professional as possible to be seen as someone that an employer might want to hire.
That’s all for now
