No red "SOLO" cups.




It's always fun to share posts or photos of last weekends activities on your facebook page. However, what you "share" can affect the possibility of you getting a job. More and more employers are checking social media sites of applicants, but what are they looking for?
Reasons NOT to hire you!
  • bad mouthing other employers
  • drugs
  • alcohol
  • provocative photos
  • poor communication skills
  • discriminatory comments
  • lying

You can learn a lot about a person through social media. Things employers like to see are
  • showing personality
  • professional interest
  • photos that support your professional qualifications
  • a display of a wide range of interests
  • creativity
  • good communication skills


This is the number one way to show red flags. Employers want to know that you are worth hiring.
Remember to keep your social media site clean and professional, but still be you.
