Getting a Facebook profile job search-ready
THURSDAY, MARCH 01, 2012 17:20 PM

Getting a Facebook profile job search-ready Jobseekers may have taken a career test and feel as though they are a good fit for the positions they are applying for. The only problem is no one is getting back to them. If these individuals are active on Facebook, then the lack of responses may have less to do with the quality of their resume, and more to do with what they are doing online.

BusinessNewsDaily recently highlighted a few aspects of a jobseeker’s online profile that have the potential to endanger their reputation. For instance, people are advised to keep an eye on the comments that appear on their page, and choose an appropriate picture for their page. Both play large roles in how potential employers view them.

For a more professional Facebook page, TIME recommends that jobseekers take a look at their privacy settings to ensure that only their friends can see content on their page, such as past posts and comments.

At the same time, Facebook users should expect their potential employer to search for them online before an interview. As a result, jobseekers will want to make sure the parts of their profile that are visible are completely filled out. According to the news source, a half-complete page gives off the impression that a candidate has something to hide.
