A record of all your online activities, from Facebook posts and Tweets to blog comments and posts, is known as your digital footprint. Naturally, your employer will not thoroughly investigate all of your online activities since the beginning. However, you ought to be aware that there is no shortage of information. The solution is to create professional content that recruiters and employers can easily access and will be extremely impressed by. This will allow you to take control of your public online image.
Your digital footprint can also be used as a way to determine how you handle social media – if you post frequently or just once in awhile, if you are active on- or offline, etc. Your digital footprint can also be used to judge how well you communicate with others via social media channels, whether it's through small talk or questions about career opportunities or projects.
The main concern with having such a large digital footprint is that it can be used against you if someone decides to go after your personal data legally or illegally for their own gain (e.g., hacking). Your personal information may also be used against you if you're hired as an employee at an organization that doesn't have any privacy policy in place.
