Not all employers or recruiters will search for
your name; however, many do
Most won’t search past the first page
If you have a common name or share it with
someone famous, it’s more challenging to
control the information
Once you have the job, there is no law preventing
a company from monitoring your social accounts,
and you can be fired for what you post
Though it’s not used as frequently, it doesn’t
hurt to know what shows up on Bing




Start by cleaning up Facebook, it ranks high
Select the Privacy option, then look at how
public your profile is:
Who can see my stuff? -> View as -> Public

There is no way to completely hide your
profile
Always require approval for images, status
updates, and comments tagged to you
You can ask Facebook not to index your
profile, but it does not always work
Photos of you posted by friends can still be
found publicly
Your public comments on public groups or
friends walls can be accessed by anyone

your profile
