The “Rule”

The rule that more people should follow on social media is rule number one on the general tips list about acting how you would in person. When it comes to social media and the internet, people often put on a facade different from who they really are in person. When people sign up for certain social media accounts such as Instagram, they make the mistake of portraying a false representation different from who they are in real life. More people should follow this rule because how someone acts on social media is the way they will be perceived in the real world and can be telling of a person’s characteristic. When it comes to social media people also make the mistake of not taking into account that their future employer could stumble across their social media account and judge whether or not that person is the right fit for the job based on how they portray themselves on their social media.
