To Post Or Not To Post - A Helpful Infographic

 Social Media

The graphic designers at OnlineClasses.org have created a new infographic of what things shouldn't be posted on social media, as well as providing data on how one's profile can affect their employment.  It is helpful advice, even if you are not currently looking for a new job.

How often do you ask yourself if what you are posting on social media is appropriate?  The folks at OnlineClasses.org have provided a new flowchart of what things shouldn't be posted on social media, as well as providing data on how one's profile can affect their employment.

There are 900 million social media users plugged into Facebook alone, and nearly 500 million of them log into the social network every single day. In fact, in just one day on Facebook, 250 million photos are uploaded, and 532 million statuses are updated.

There are also millions of tweets sent, tumblrs updated, and instagrams snapped. With so much personal content constantly being uploaded to the web, it’s no small wonder that so many recruiters and would-be employers are turning to various social networking platforms to determine the personalities of prospective hires. If you’re working toward your online degree, chances are you hope to one day apply for, interview at, and ultimately secure a great job. 

According to OnlineClasses, the first step to preparing for that future job, however, is to stay forward-thinking in the types of things you post, tweet, and otherwise put up online. 

In the information age, when everything about a person is available for scrutiny, the fact of the matter is that one incriminating photo or post can make or break the way people perceive you in the future. Even if your social media habits don’t have an immediate impact on your employment dreams, the laws of social media etiquette dictate that sometimes, people need to think before it impacts their future.
