Social media is often viewed as a blessing
and a curse. Thoughts, photos and videos are shared
instantly and widely— friends, family and complete
strangers receive posts within seconds. In recent news,
we’ve discovered a lingering or residual effect in which
past posts—typically those posted in haste—negatively
impact young people seeking employment or educational
opportunities. Experts in social media know that your
profile is your “brand,” and, therefore, it must be
managed. Here are a few tips and reminders on developing
a responsible philosophy to manage your social profile
online.
