How to Brand Yourself
In this day and age, potential bosses or college admissions use social media to scout out their candidate. Here are some simple tips and examples of how to look good for the ole boss.
Step 1: Google Yourself!
Check if any bad images, posts, etc from you appear. Most of the time, there's something outshining us like a movie star (like me), but not everyone is that lucky.
***If a "bad" thing appears, try to delete it! Then search again. Hopefully, if the link still appears, the link will run to a dead end.***

Step: Check Your Posts Out!
Snoop around your own social media and make sure you OR your friends aren't posting anything bad on your walls, and don't forget to have a classy little intro at the top of your page like on Instagram.
*If you find bad things you're tagged in or posted on your wall*
-Kindly ask the owner to remove their contribution or at least your name from it.
-If worst comes to worst, try to delete it yourself, or report it
