Lovely ladies what’s your relationship with social media like? Do you think it could impact your career in anyway? If so, positively or negatively? How would you rate your digital footprint? Curious.

I am a very private person online. I have social media profiles but do not post.. I use it more to send messages or photos to people who are close to me... that being said, it’s personal preference on what you want to share with strangers. Nothing wrong either way but make the decision with what you’re comfortable with.

LinkedIn and yelp, that’s it. Thinking about removing my real name and profile pic from yelp for privacy but would lose 5 years of elite status.

I do this, Reddit for several communities and have a profile on LinkedIn for work, so relatively small footprint, which I like.

Yes, I think it could impact your career if you post something insensitive or inappropriate publicly. In our world, I think it is far more likely to impact your career negatively rather than positively.
