I am a Communications major who is currently finishing up my last year. I plan on receiving my associate's degree and looking for jobs in the field. I decided to take my elective in social media marketing because I'm interested in making extra income in the future by running different companies' social media.
I am starting to realize that my time at my current college is coming to an end shortly. I started college at the age of 20, I am now roughly 23 years old. The idea of my time coming to an end is both scary and exciting. My plans for furthering my education rely on if I find a job after I graduate. My goal is to use my social media such as tik tok, youtube, and Twitter as a running resume for my future employers.
I have looked online at jobs for social media management. These jobs have in their qualifications they want someone with experience in running social media accounts. What better way to qualify me than to show them what I can do for putting myself out in the world of social media?
My ideas for my videos are a day in the life of a Communication student. My first video may seem fairly simple to most creators but, it shows my audience my learning journey in the industry. It also helps establish my audience. Sometimes seeing someone else do things motivates others to do things as well.

My plan for my second video is to do more of an introduction video. I plan on including my first name, the state I am from, why I am making my videos, and why I am excited about documenting my journey. I have not thought much more into my future videos than that. I want to include the adventures I go on in the industry, and some tips on what I have so far have been taught in my courses. This will show potential employers my excitement for earning a title in the field, it can help me get more known on social media because who wouldn't want a person replying to them that has gone through mostly the same things as them academically. It might just help me network with others from other states, or maybe they know of online companies I can work for in the future.
I am excited to document my journey and open myself up to possibilities in the future. I am going to be my brand online. The videos will be online regardless so I can look back at my past college life which is also interesting to me. Remember guys social media is a tool and a weapon. Just be mindful of how you use it.
