MANAGE YOUR REP
If a hiring manager were to Google your name, what would he or she find? (If you don't know the answer to this, I suggest you try it yourself!) Build your brand by creating a positive digital footprint. Then, capitalize on your footprint! Showcase your skills, interests, and experiences.
Manage your privacy settings. Practice online etiquette, post professional and work-related photos in public spaces, offer advice on LinkedIn's Q&A sections, and reply and give positive feedback to teacher email queries on list serves.
Start a blog. Offer to write short articles for other bloggers. Get your work published on different online communities. Make an e-book. Share slides shows. Make sure that whatever you leave behind always reflects you in the best light!
