Why You Should Make A LinkedIn Account ?

LinkedIn is a site for professionals who want to use the social networks to help build their career. Anyone can use linkedin because it is a business site and you can link with all fields of occupations and networks. You can possibly get hired somewhere just with a company viewing your profile and viewing you occupation resume. Which is probably why this website is so popular. I like that I can link to just about anyone and network with many people in my career choice and have the chance to possibly work with them. I think it is important to have a LinkedIn account because of all the opportunities and exposure it has and comes with. One that stood out to me was when I seen Kris Bennett, she had a lot of connections and was linked to a lot of different people on hers with a very nice professional image of herself. I want my LinkedIn account to have great views and I would like to be that person whose company reach out to me as well as my networking with them as well. One goal of mine is to have at least one company reach out to me. I do actually plan on using LinkedIn as an actual site that I network with for my career as a broadcaster.

Get To Know a Little About Me !!!

Hello and welcome to my blog. My name is Shantel Alston and I am a junior Mass Communications with a concentration in Broadcasting major from the lovely city of Charlotte, NC. Being a broadcasting major has definitely taught me a lot as far as how broad of a major this is and the many different things that you could do with it. With learning all of this it has gave me the motivation to want to expand my career goal. I started off just wanting to do radio hosting for example, The Breakfast Club , but know I want to go into television production and just all of that behind the scenes television. When graduating from South Carolina State University I would like to attend graduate school at either Clark Atlanta University  or Georgia State University . While being a graduate student I plan on working at a radio station in the mean time. So to sum all of that up that is where I am going to start my life. This summer I plan to do an internship at a local radio station in Charlotte, NC.
