I am on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Snapchat and Instagram. Of course, I primarily use these to connect with friends and to share things about my day, but since I\u2019ve been at University (studying for a Journalism and Media degree) I\u2019ve thought often about how my social media presence might add to or take away from my chances of getting a graduate job."}, {"text_idx": "#000029", "text": "Using social media is a great way to build professional relationships (especially Twitter and LinkedIn), but it\u2019s also important to remember that posts made on Facebook and Instagram might be around forever \u2013 and could come back to haunt you!"}, {"text_idx": "#000030", "text": "Therefore, it\u2019s important to understand your online presence and how it can impact the views that potential employers have of you each time you post.

Complaining about work, even if it\u2019s a part time job, can look really unprofessional\nDo use photos of yourself that you consider to be professional. Particularly on LinkedIn, and if you\u2019re using Twitter in a more professional capacity. LinkedIn is a network that is predominantly used for business, and professionalism is key \u2013 using a social picture on LinkedIn is not the key to a smart profile!\nDon\u2019t post statuses/comments that you wouldn\u2019t want sharing with potential employers. Don\u2019t swear and definitely don\u2019t be offensive! Avoid sharing overly politically charged statements. If you wouldn\u2019t say something in the workplace, it\u2019s probably best to avoid saying it online!\nDo use correct grammar and spelling. Double check your statuses/Tweets for mistakes.\nDo check the privacy of your Facebook profile. Be mindful especially when posting photos and though you might not be able to control what photos your friends tag you in, you can un-tag yourself from or delete any inappropriate photos that potential employers might see.\n...and do change your privacy settings from time-to-time. Occasionally, if I\u2019m heading for an interview, I will double check that my Facebook is set to private and I might even put my Twitter profile to private. I\u2019ll go over my Tweets to double-check that they\u2019re all professional and delete any that aren\u2019t and may put off potential employers.\nDo get involved with LinkedIn. Having attended a LinkedIn workshop as part of the Cardiff Award, I couldn\u2019t wait to get started and building my profile. LinkedIn is a great way to engage with potential employers and you can connect to those that you\u2019ve met throughout work experience or through internships and this ensures that they\u2019re kept updated with where you are professionally. Always send a personalised request on LinkedIn, adding a message reminding the person of where they met you."}, {"text_idx": "#000034", "text": "How do you make sure that you look professional on social media?
