Wherever you go online—using email, instant messaging, your website, your blog or your social networking website—you leave a footprint. When using the Internet for your work search, take precautions against potential risks.

Browsing an employer’s or organization’s website can give you access to newsletters, blogs and other useful information. This could help you find work or prepare for your interview.
