We’ve all been on the app called TikTok, which has taken the world by storm and makes you forget about the concept of time. If you’re scrolling through your For You page feeling like something is missing, you’ve come to the right place. There’s an account for almost anything on TikTok, but getting your professional dose of career advice and motivation is something that you can easily add to your daily TikTok regimen. In fact, getting tips and hearing stories in 60 seconds or less (most likely even 15) can keep you engaged and teach you something you wouldn’t have otherwise known! Without further adieu, here are several great accounts to follow for your career development.
These accounts and their content are not affiliated with Bentley University or the Pulsifer Career Development Center in any way.

Cedoni got famous for her down-to-earth career advice, where she keeps it real on topics like resume and networking insights.

Cedoni’s a big advocate for networking horizontally, with people that are in similar positions as you. Give her a follow to see tidbits of career news and even internship reminders mixed into Cedoni’s own funny and original content.

- garyvee
Gary is an entrepreneur and investor, CEO of his own company VaynerMedia, and overall a very successful professional. His videos are funny and often motivational, but he doesn’t post career advice as frequently as other types of his content, which are mostly created for entertainment or sharing his opinion. When he does have career-related content, it’s valuable and has insights for anybody hoping to become an entrepreneur or CEO, so drop that follow! You won’t be the only one, Gary has over 5 million followers!
- erinmcgoff
Erin runs yet another super popular account on TikTok (600k+) due to her quality videos and her quality advice. She has valuable experience and a fresh perspective due to being a film director and editor. Therefore, a lot of her videos are simply funny storytimes of her life. However, the majority of her videos are career advice pieces that are just very unique and different from typical career advice pages, because Erin seems to not lose steam! For a large selection of videos regarding career advice, complete with many examples of what NOT to do and then ways to correct mistakes, definitely give Erin a follow.
