In the first part, we are going to focus on what should you do first – create a unique and professional internet identity.
In the digital age, employers are adopting new vehicles to scan and recruit candidates. It is possible that employers will check out your internet profiles, so necessarily, you have to clean up your social networking profiles before sending out your application.
You photos
It is tempting to show the world that you are hanging out with great guys and the unforgettable party you took part in. But some of them is not for you future employers. Try to make those private or subtle photos invisible to visitors.
Don't forget to change your profile photo. Choose the one that makes you look professional or formal but never freaking.
All posts
Go through all of your posts, make sure that all inappropriate content unavailable to your potential employers.
Profile Info
Some social networking website will allow you to post your job and academic background in the profile, seek the chance to promote yourself, including your working history or internship experience, activities at your school and other websites you created or have affiliations with.
Privacy
Check out your security setting. If you don't want the entire network to have the access to your space, we suggest that you can disable your profile picture from being shown in search result and make albums and photos invisible to friends only or you only, and don't accept friends request until you confirm.
De-activate your page
There is an easy and quick way to clean up your internet profile – close it! Just click some buttons and that is it. And you may find it is amazing to be away from networking for a break.
There are some great websites, such as LinkedIn, Blogger and HauteNET, for you to create a wonderful and professional profile to show off your former employers or show your future employers more information about you. Consider setting up an account on them.
