This article is the third part of the “Professionalism and Social Media” blog posts. We discussed the analysis of the speech-language pathologists in the first part and the nutritionists in the second part. We continue our analysis in this post to analyze how Instagram’s users from a technical background (e.g., information scientists, computer engineers, software developers) are utilizing their online presence on Instagram toward their career development. We narrow down our analysis to users who are living in Kuwait only.
As we mentioned in the previous parts, the content of this blog is prepared and written by a group of students from the Career Perspective course offered during the Summer semester 2022 at the College of Life Sciences at Kuwait University. This article focuses only on one teamwork, the Information Scientists group. The volunteering team members are:
