A
majority of employers and recruiters are now using social media sites
like Facebook and Twitter, search engines and criminal records to learn
the truth about job seekers.
A survey conducted by
Australia-based software firm Nuage Software showed over half of human
resource managers surveyed ran a Google search on candidates, 74 per
cent checked LinkedIn, 23 per cent Facebook and three per cent Twitter.
According
to tech firm Nuage's managing director David Wilson, some employers are
asking to view Facebook and Twitter profiles at interviews in order to
avoid privacy concerns, Perth Now reports.
"The internet has a
very long memory. An ill-advised or impulsive post can be rapidly
replicated across many sites and be impossible to take back," the report
quoted Wilson, as saying
"People really do enjoy the freedom of
expression on social media, but it is worth considering the cumulative
effect of their postings," he added.
According to the report,
Australia's National Crime Check managing director Martin Lazarevic said
the variety of employers getting police checks on applicants had grown
rapidly in the past six months, and as many as one in ten checks were
catching people out. (ANI)
