So you haven’t quite mastered Twitter. Or maybe your understanding of LinkedIn leaves a lot to be desired. Or, your Facebook page contains an awful lot of questionable photos from college. Now is a fantastic time to clean up and polish your social media accounts (a.k.a., deleting anything that’s NSFW—and turning privacy settings on if there are any lingering doubts).
In more and more industries, some kind of social media presence is more or less a requirement. Figure out now how much cred your industry gives to it, and act accordingly. And even though most people will be out of the office, they’ll still be checking their notifications. So you can be active where it’ll benefit you in your search and connect with people in your industry.
