Nearly half of US employers research the online profiles of job candidates on social networks such as Facebook, MySpace or Linkedln, according to a new survey.
Forty-five percent of the employers surveyed for CareerBuilder.com, the largest US online job site, said they use social networking sites to check on job candidates, up from just 22 percent in a survey conducted last year.
Another 11 percent said they plan to start using social networking sites for screening.
"As social networking grows increasingly pervasive, more employers are utilizing these sites to screen potential employees," CareerBuilder said in a statement. It said job seekers should "be mindful of the information they post online."
CareerBuilder said that of those who conduct online searches as background checks on job candidates, 29 percent use Facebook, 26 percent use Linkedln and 21 percent use MySpace. Eleven percent search blogs while seven percent follow candidates on micro-blogging service Twitter.
Thirty-five percent of those surveyed said they have found content on a social network that caused them not to hire a candidate, CareerBuilder said. Examples included "provocative (挑衅的) or inappropriate photographs or information" or content about drinking or using drugs. Other reasons cited were badmouthing (说坏话) a previous employer, co-workers or clients, poor communication skills, making discriminatory (歧视性的) comments, lying about qualifications or sharing confidential information from a previous employer.
Information found on social networking profiles was not always a negative factor in finding a job.
Eighteen percent of employers said they have found content on social networking sites that caused them to hire the candidate, CareerBuilder said.
Some profiles "provided a good feel for the candidate’s personality" or supported their professional qualifications while others demonstrated creativity or solid communication skills.
Rosemary Haefner, vice president of human resources at CareerBuilder, recommended that candidates "clean up digital dirt" before beginning a job search by removing photos, content and links which could hurt their chances.
The survey of 2,667 hiring managers and human resource professionals was conducted by Harris Interactive between May 22 and June 10. It has a sampling error of plus or minus 1.9 percentage points. [br] CareerBuilder’s vice HR president Rosemary Haefner suggested that job seekers______.
选项
A、take wild party pictures off their blogs
B、never talk ill of their previous bosses
C、avoid logging on social networks in real name
D、remove all the personal information online
答案
A
解析
第十段中,Rosemary Haefner建议求职者在开始找工作之前先删除可能破坏他们就业机会的照片、内容和链接,[A]中的wild party pictures就是此类照片中的一种,故答案为[A]。删除的只是对自己不利的网上信息,[D]“删除所有网上个人信息”表述太过绝对,故应排除。[B]“永远不要说前任老板的坏话”是根据第六段第三句中badmouthing a previous employer所设的干扰项,这里不是Rosemary Haefner的建议,而是CareerBuilder调查显示的结果,故应排除。[C]“不以真名字登陆社交网站”在文中未提及。
