Dont get caught with your pants down on Facebook

Dont get caught with your pants down on Facebook, why you need to change your Facebook setting to get into the Superyacht industry
why you need to change your Facebook settings to get into the Superyacht industry
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know that once a CV goes across someones desk, the employer without doubt will look you up on Facebook to see if they can get a better understanding of your life and personality. It's no different in the Superyacht industry and most likely it's even more common, as their need to know about your behaviour is heightened by the fact that they will not only work with you, but also live with you. 

So, if drinking too much, jumping on cars, swearing at friends, or giving the one fingered salute to the camera isn't your persuasion then thats a big bonus. But i'm sure you've still got some friends that do. Therefore I'd strongly recommend checking your privacy settings. Share this with them now >
