Online reputation management while job search














Social media has taken over the world by storm. Now, it is not just meant for socialization, but businesses are effectively using social media to reach out to candidates. Hence candidates need to be careful how they project their social media profiles. With various social media platforms, a job seeker should keep a tab on all his profiles. In simple words, one must analyze his profiles on all active social media platforms and edit or delete any information, picture, video or post which can create a negative impression about themselves. Online reputation matters a lot and employers will only consider your application if you have a clean online image. Hence online reputation management plays a key role for being considered by the recruiter. Some of the popular sites which recruiters have access to while digging into the details of a particular candidate are LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Blogger and YouTube. If you have been a cyber-bully or have a report on you that’s gone viral, chances are that the recruiter might not consider you for an interview even if you have the relevant qualification and experience. Thus, job seekers should clean up their existing profiles and post content that can create a good impression about you.
