About Me

I have created this blog to show professionals of all ages that there are certian ways that you need to act, dress, and present yourself when in a professional setting. Too often I come across people that are supposed to be "professional" and I would NEVER hire them to work for me. I just want to make people aware of what I see, hear, and give tips to polish these professionals up so they can be success on their career path. Merriam-Webster defines professionalism as the conduct, aims, or qualities that characterize or mark a profession or a professional person Professional-characterized by or conforming to the technical or ethical standards of a profession (2) : exhibiting a courteous, conscientious, and generally businesslike manner in the workplace

Facebook Social and Professional Use.


Facebook does not only have to be used for social networking, if used correctly you can use it to your professional advanatage and network with other professionals. With that said, if you are on Facebook, Twitter, blogs, or any other kind of social network you need to be aware of who has access to this site and who can see what you are posting and displaying for people to see. People have been know to lose their jobs due to things that they have posted on these social network sites. On Facebook's information page it says that an account is truly NEVER deleted and this could potentially come back to haunt you if a future employee comes across damaging comments, pictures, and/or posts that have been made. Things that are put online are there for life, whether you posted them 2 days ago or 10 ten years ago so PLEASE be careful of what you do with your social networking and as always KEEP IT PROFESSIONAL!
