Social media? It’s never been more important to look good. This is especially true if you’re a college student with an eye on securing a top job when you graduate – 37 percent of employers now use Facebook to pre-screen applicants, and 92 percent of recruiters use or plan to use social media for recruitment. Almost nine in ten recruiters have made a hire through LinkedIn, and 73 percent have successfully hired a candidate who was introduced to them through a social media site. So if your latest status is a typo-filled, profanity-laden (but hilarious) photo of you and friends getting wasted, you might want to, you know, reevaluate. This infographic from Bryant & Stratton College presents a wealth of tips for college graduates and students on how to look professional on social media.

Location, location, location. These are the all-important 3 L’s of real estate marketing. But on Twitter, it’s all about the 3 E’s. Engagement, engagement, engagement. Without engagement, your tweets are just out there, in the wilderness, naked and alone. You need a reaction from your audience. And it needs to be actual, valuable engagement – engagement for engagement’s sake is not much better than no engagement at all. Anybody can generate a strong reaction to something as trite as “Share this if you love your grandma!”, but what is it actually going to do for your brand? No. You need real engagement, with your fans and followers encouraged to become proactively involved with relative brand messaging. And to do this, there are a few things that you need to remember.

![4 Things To Never Tweet [TWITTER TIPS] - AllTwitter | SocialMedia_me | Scoop.it](https://img.scoop.it/7QCbu-uzOYzT9RbQDPRiIzl72eJkfbmt4t8yenImKBVvK0kTmF0xjctABnaLJIm9)
In a recent dinner conversation, I was chatting with a friend of a friend about social media. She asked what networks I’m active on, and since I work in the field my answer was lengthy. She responded that she’s engaged on Facebook, Quora and Pinterest – but has no interest in Twitter. When I asked her why not, she said she has enough access to information like what people ate for lunch and how their Caribbean vacation was and didn’t need another network to that end. When I explained that I use Twitter for purely professional and informational purposes – keeping up with news in real time, tracking trends, reading interesting articles, and cultivating relationships – she was surprised, and shared that she’d like to try that out. I was equally surprised at her impression of Twitter in the first place. The information you consume on Twitter is a product of the people you follow, so the content flow is completely controlled by you. That said, my conversation with this potential new Twitter user was a good reminder to be constantly conscious of the tweets you’re contributing to the firehose. Here are four things to never tweet, if you want to be a positive and productive contributor to the Twitterverse.

The article showcases how the brand Oreo used different social media channels to successfully maintain its customers and engage reactions. The brand Oreo uses Twitter as a way to communicate with the audience by sending humorous tweets (most of the times with pictures alongside) to trigger a response. Oreo's Instagram and Pinterest page also posts pictures of their fan's creative ideas/recipes by letting them use the Oreo cookie itself as a blank canvas. Oreo's Facebook page updates their followers with any news relating to the brand itself and also answers any questions they may obtain. Each of these channels displays the idea of how to remind customers about the brand itself.
