A
It is important to make a good impression with a potential employer; remember that the new graduate's appearance on the social networking website will be what an employer first sees. Be sure to use a professional photo, perhaps just a headshot, and make the Facebook account private to prevent employers from searching for you if you want to use the Facebook account for family and friends. Potential employers may dismiss you as a candidate after viewing inappropriate photographs or information. LinkedIn is primarily a website for job networking.
