Careers and Professional Identity Display

By Library on March 27, 2012 1:14 PM | Comments | No TrackBacks
How will the pictures you post on Facebook affect your job search? What are the pros and cons of writing a public blog? How do you balance privacy and sharing on Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and other social media?

The Library's Careers & Professional Identity display can help you work through these questions and more. Just in time for the Spring Career & Internship Fair on March 28th, we've collected items to help you find internships and jobs, all while balancing your personal and professional profiles.

Good luck!
