Privacy Settings: Avoid The Social Media Paparazzi
You know the paparazzi, they’ll take any opportunity to catch a star like yourself doing something a little less than kosher. If you’re looking or have just applied for a job, employers will most likely seek out your social media profiles and they are usually in paparazzi mode. In other words, they are out specifically to find damning photos, errant remarks, and anything else that might indicate to them that you may not be a good employee..
That might sound scary, but this is actually your chance to impress them! On every network you operate on, there are privacy settings to control what type of information is shown to who. You want to give people a taste of who you are as a person, but maybe not all the drunk photos from college.

If you have decided that you want to change up what the world is seeing at the moment and adjust the flow of your information, you’re going to need to go in and mess with some privacy settings. We have attached guides to adjusting your setting on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube.
