A tweet a day keeps the @julienbarbier42 far away
A software engineer may find it beneficial to have a Twitter account for a number of reasons.
These may include:
Staying informed about industry news and trends by following relevant accounts
Networking with other professionals in the field
Sharing updates on personal projects and contributions to open-source software
Finding job opportunities through connections made on the platform
Participating in technical discussions and learning from other engineers
Having a Twitter account can also be a good way to establish a personal brand and showcase your expertise to potential employers or collaborators. It’s good to start early and to connect with your peers as soon as possible to start building your network.
Tasks
- 0. Create your Twitter account and add it to the Intranet
If you don’t have one already, create your Twitter account.
Most people only have one account, but some prefer to have two separate accounts:
one personal
one professional
If this is your preference, you can create a professional account that you will only use for work and professional networking.
- 1. Follow 10 new accounts
Following 10 new accounts (you can do more if you would like of course). It could be:
your friends
the ALX SE staff (see list bellow in 3.)
your peers
your favorite tech influencers
If you do not know where to start, you can follow these two accounts if you want:
Julien Barbier: Co-Creator of the ALX SE curriculum, and Founder of Holberton School
Faces of ALX SE: which tells the story of current ALX SE students as well as alumni.
