to get a job USING SOCIAL NETWORKS
Internet is a very powerful
tool. It allows you to keep
informed about everything
happening in the world, to
connect with other people and
to show yourse l f , your
interests and your skills. Now
we are used to have a public
profile in a Social Network,
like Facebook, and we share
our life with our friends and
acquaintances. These Social
Networks could also be useful
to be visible in the laboral
market and to connect with
e m p l o y e r s o r w i t h
entrepreneurs. For that
reason you can decide how to
use the Social Networks and
then show the part of yourself
that you want to be visible
and hide the part of yourself
that is only private.
facebook?WHY
WHO IS IN MY SOCIAL NETWORK?
How do you want to use your facebook profile? Think if you want to use the social network to have fun or on the contrary, to get into the laboral market. If you choose the first option keep your profile more private and accept only your family and your close friends. If you choose the second option you can accept as friends as many people as you want, but you should update your status and upload pictures more carefully. It's always your decision!!

Your image in the social network is the face you show to the world. It's not you, but the public part of yourself.
It's a good idea to think twice before you upload a picture, you update your status or you post a comment! It's very easy to do it and very hard to delete it.
Your private life still remains private if you don't show it on the internet. You can always decide who is going to see your picture, but you cannot choose what is going to happen after that.
The moment you send a picture by your phone, it isn't yours anymore.
It's nice to see you among your friends, having fun and showing your hobbies and skills :). Don't be afraid, but choose your pictures before you upload them.
E-MAILYour e-mail is your first letter of presentation. If you wrote your address thinking about having fun with your friends maybe it's not the perfect mail to put in a CV or to give to an employer. Think about having an easy to remember, clear, and recognizable e-mail for the labor market.
