JR Grads Club: So, Just What Should You Be Posting Online?

This event is part of JR Grads Club, a new six-month programme designed to help you take your first steps into the journalism and media industry. As well as tailored workshops, you'll get access to 1-2-1 support, job alerts, and much more. Join the club here.

LinkedIn? Instagram? TikTok? Something else? It's difficult to know where you should focus your energy as a journalist who wants to develop their profile in 2026 — and is it a must-have, a nice-to-have, or an endless chore? In this new panel discussion with leading journalists Shahed Ezaydi and Megha Mohan, we'll be looking at what works and what doesn't.

This session will help you to:

• Conduct an audit of your own online presence and how it can (and can't) help;
• Better understand your own personal goals and what could help you achieve them;
• Understand how to fit your goals around your life, work, and other commitments;
• What works (and what doesn't) and how it might differ for everyone.

As always, we'll save space for questions, which can also be submitted in advance.
