My Facebook profile, as of now, is not very exciting. I have little information about my interests and myself.  Originally, I thought the less information the better; those who look at my profile will not find much and cannot “creep” on me. I do not post any statuses, but I do post many pictures. Those who are my friends, however, are the only people who can look at my pictures; I keep my entire Facebook private unless you are friends with me.

After reading “Facebook Profiles Accurately Predict Job Performance”, I would update my profile and make it more exciting in order to get my dream job. I would make my profile less private, but still not for everyone to see. I would also, write more about my interests and myself. As for the statuses, I would only post something if I was doing productive things, or traveling; I would not post what I was doing at every moment, or my thoughts on random things. I will always continue to post pictures as long as I believe they are appropriate for others to see and does not reflect a negative view of myself. Those are the only changes I would make to my Facebook profile in order to get my dream job.
