7 mistakes made by candidates in social networks

“Keep social networks as if tomorrow you have to look for work,” said the great coach. For sure. Any



// ACCOUNT IS CLOSED

You need to do this so that your profile can be viewed. Otherwise, all your pages will be hidden from the recruiter, which means that he will have the impression that you have something to hide. That is why it is worth "open" your profiles in social networks - VKontakte, Facebook, LinkedIn. This can be done in the settings, which, of course, you already know. Still, everything depends on your field of activity - if you, suppose, a designer, a pr'shchik, then the employer will want to look at your Instagram. We advise you to simply choose for yourself the tactics of behavior based on your requests - the most serious will actively update the page on LinkedIn and expand the circle of contacts there, someone will post posts on FB, and someone will be enough to search for VKontakte.
Important:
Keep all the same distance between personal and professional. Leave yourself a space in which you can remain yourself. For example, Twitter.

// Emptiness

Emptiness can tell little about you as a candidate. Therefore, try to immediately fill in all the blocks with information about yourself - just do not get carried away with the VC, as it was when you were 13. Activity, education, career, life position.

// Indifference

Facebook and LinkedIn (and even Twitter) have excellent functionality - the comments you post, the articles that you’ve posted and so on will be shown as activity in the news feed. You should not have hundreds of updates a day - they will simply unsubscribe from you, but express your opinion on some issues from time to time.


// Excessive friendliness

Why add as friends all those you just met? Keep yourself in hand and do not rush to expand your networking network - look for those who can be useful, who may have common interests and so on.


// Fake

If you have ever bought likes or "friends" - this is not very cool. Right here at all. And if you add to the friends of some left-wing people in order to simply increase the cherished number - think about it.


// Content

It will not be superfluous to remind you how important this is. Scold the boss, the company, endlessly complain or swear at the network - all of this threatens you simply the lack of any reaction to your resume or your application. And remember about the photos - it is generally a separate story.


// No face

Be sure to (!) Add photos for each of the pages on social networks. No giraffe kittens, you need the employer to know how you look. Of course, it would be better if it is a business photo.
