For Some, Online Persona Undermines a Resume
by possibly noteworthy at 11:11 am EDT, Jun 11, 2006

It's like, these days, everyone applies for a security clearance.

"Is there something about their lifestyle that we might find questionable or that we might find goes against the core values of our corporation?"

Whatever happened to handles? When I was in highschool, I was WAY too paranoid about stalking, my parents, and The Man to use my real name on anything I posted online. I certainly never posted pictures of myself that would be embarrassing later on when I became rich and famous. Even now when I don't much maintain a webpage, I'm careful about what's posted and what's hidden so no one confuses me with her. ;-)

It seems to me that there's millions of bloggers who don't know that the net is purposefully anonymous enough [for a Googling HR person, anyway] that you can try to impress your friends without costing yourself a bling job offer.

-janelane, not her


There is a redundant post from Decius not displayed in this view.
