I am a firm believer that interpersonal skills are crucial in order to succeed in a professional setting. I think that one of the easiest ways to develop these interpersonal skills is by using social media, specifically, linkedin. While a lot of people might not realize, social media and the internet are very present in todays society. This includes in the professional field. When applying to a job any employer can type your name in on google and what most likely will come up first is your facebook, followed by your linkedin, instagram, twitter, etc. No matter how private you keep your social medias someone, somewhere on the internet will be able to access them. While this is a scary thought, it should not be. A great way to show a company who you are is through these platforms. Therefore, as linkedin is a professional platform it is important to keep it updated and solely professional at all times. In regards to the social media platforms, it is imperative to keep these healthy as well. What I mean is that while you do not want to put out fake content, it is important to keep in mind that what you post will be there for the entire world to see at all times. Therefore, keep all posts respectful and clean. That way, you will set yourself up for success when you are networking online.
