If you're looking for a job, "don't be a fool" with your social media!

Well, it has happened again. One of my clients was considering a candidate for a position, but after some online research they decided to pass.

So my client went online to check out this candidate and found just one "web gem" that caused them to question. They found a photo that insinuated some pretty disturbing behaviors that you would not want an employer to see. I'll refrain from indicating exactly what it was, but it was of a sexual nature and nothing to do with sexual preference. Yeah that's how disturbing it was!

Anyway, they even decided to give the person the benefit of the doubt and continue with the interview, but as they say, first impressions are lasting impressions.

Word to the wise... be careful what you post in your social media forums, because employers access them. As they should. They are trying to hire people that will represent their company well and not embarrass them with off the clock shenanigans. I guess you should've grown up watching the A Team. Just take Mr. T's advice and "don't be a fool."
