College Students: Four Easy Steps to Clean Up Your Facebook Page Before the Big Interview
I’m usually pretty liberal with the content that I allow on Facebook – this is mostly because I’m a 39 year old married father of two, not a 21 year old about to graduate from College who’s desperate for a job. The most scandalous photos that I’m tagged in usually involved one of my babies […]

College Students: Four Easy Steps to Clean Up Your Facebook Page Before the Big Interview
I’m usually pretty liberal with the conent that I allow on Facebook – this is mostly because I’m a 37 year old married father of two, not a 21 year old about to graduate from College. The most scandelous photos that I’m tagged in usually involved baby vomit, not me vomiting at a frat party.

The Secret to Getting a Job in Social Media
A few months ago I was invited to visit my Alma mater Loyola University in Baltimore to lecture about how students can leverage social media to get a job. Hire Me! When I lecture I love to offer real life examples of how students can leverage the free tools at their disposal to gain employment. I included an outline of Dan Herbert – a college student who was using social media to it’s fullest. He wanted to work in social media, so he was actively engaged in social media (what a novel idea). I also spoke about how I had creatively sought a job in social by launching Facebookshouldhireme.com. I love helping people engage in social media, and I love lecturing, just love it.
