With the prominent rise of social media and the fact that people all over the world are connected to it, organizations utilize different channels in different ways to spread their message and market to people. The Canadian Red Cross uses social media to seek digital volunteers to work on communications during disasters and bring a presence to the general public in their efforts. This of course differs greatly from for-profit businesses that are focused on sales numbers. Some things to hit on as you answer this question are the importance social media plays in the fundraising and volunteer efforts for the Canadian Red Cross and any experience you have with business use of social media platforms.

"If you take a good, hard look over the last 20 years, it's pretty easy to see how social media has changed the daily lives of people around the world. In the business world, platforms are used to gain product awareness, show the good that an organization is doing, recruit new employees, and engage consumers. Prior to my interview today, I was sure to check out your YouTube page and your X and Instagram accounts. Seeing all of the great work you are doing in both English and French on your YouTube page was amazing. I learned a lot about your efforts happening in the Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis that I wasn't aware of, and I feel that others in the general public gain knowledge from your page."
