When applying for jobs, it’s important that you’re social media savvy. No potential employer wants to check you out (and of course they do these days!) to see moans and grumbles, inflammatory posts, slating of previous employers, NSFW videos and photos of you misbehaving on your profile!

Remember:

• Be wary of what you are making public on facebook… Use those privacy settings!!
• Spring clean your social media – delete incriminating photos and grumpy status updates.
• 45% of employers admit checking candidates’ social media.
• 57% of employers think a professional image is a reason to hire someone.

Its time to get smart!
