The company I work for routinely checks employee’s Facebook profiles whenever they call in sick. You’d be surprised how many times people call in sick and then post pictures of a party or something else they’ve been to on their profiles.

More and more companies are using our social media profiles to assess whether we’re right for a particular job or our integrity in the job. I think we really need to understand that what we put on all our profiles does impact our real life.

I was really interested in what Cemil said about Linkedin as this is a professional variation of facebook and can be a fantastic market place for employers and employees.

In my last job, management checked out applicants ‘facebook profiles’ where possible and were not considered for the job if their profiles were questionable.
