Laura Corin Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I tried to post this yesterday when I was having some computer problems. I can't find my post by searching, but forgive me if I'm double posting. My boss was talking about how I was chosen for this job. The selection process was down to me and a younger woman. As part of his decision making, my boss checked our names on Facebook. He couldn't find me (I have a very low key presence under a pseudonym) but the other woman's page contained graphic descriptions of her spending every weekend falling over drunk in the gutter. It's not that my boss is puritanical - he drinks and undoubtedly has been drunk in his time - but he wanted an employee who had some common sense. Getting in that state and then telling the world all about it didn't strike him as showing the kind of discretion and responsibility that he was looking for. I got the job. Tell your children....

justLisa Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I think it SUCKS that employers can infringe on your personal privacy. If I want to get drunk on Friday night so what. If I can pull myself together and never bring it to the office then so what. What's next? I mean if you have some high profile job, sure you don't want to make an *ss of yourself all around town. But really I wouldn't want an employer checking up on me in my personal time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Michelle* Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I think it SUCKS that employers can infringe on your personal privacy. But if you're posting about it on your Facebook account and you don't have your privacy settings on high, then your boss is not infringing on your personal privacy. Your boss is just typing your name in the box and seeing what you're choosing to share with the world. Jobs are scarce and it's harder and harder to fire someone, even for just cause, in our litigious society. If I were hiring someone, I would want to find out as much as I could about him or her before I made the commitment. Is it any different than googling your child's tutor or martial arts instructor or babysitter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if somebody feels the need to post about it for the world to see, that is an indication about this person's judgment. The employer should not have the right to see my private facebook posts that I post for my friends and should not be allowed to demand my password - but if I post it public, he is entitled to reading it. (And if she wanted to not post it publicly, but was too stupid to figure out the privacy settings, I can see why he would not want to hire her either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when you post something on the internet, it is absolutely no longer your "personal life" but worldwide public information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spryte Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I don't think this is unusual. DH is doing the hiring for his company right now (I have posted about the agony of this before!), and he has done quick google searches for some of the applicants. He does not generally look at someone's facebook page, but if a quick google search pulls up unsavory info, it definitely plays into his decision making process. He tries to be very careful about this, though, as we're not clear on the legalities of this. It feels like a muddy area (anyone who can shed light on this, please do). One applicant had a webpage with *very* odd monologues posted, obviously in his (messy) home, and clearly expressing some strange, extreme ideas. That was a red flag that this candidate would likely not put up a good front with clients. Another candidate had an arrest history that raised a lot of eyebrows. No convictions, as it was very fresh, but it shed light on the candidate's reason for desperately trying to relocate to another state. Neither of these candidates were well qualified for the jobs, so it really made no difference to the hiring process, but I could see it tipping the balance between two similarly qualified candidates.

Slipper Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Also true story. I was looking for a therapist to work with my daughter. I came across one with excellent qualifications (though she was young and had little true experience). Her cost for parents was $80 per hour. Her cost for the school would be $1,000 a day. (Her fees are typical of her qualifications). I was considering and had decided to set up an interview with her. I googled her name (since therapists usually have volunteer work and such - it gives me an indication of their personality). I found her myspace account which showed her in very skimpy clothing (she was very large busted) along with comments about how she dressed the way she did to get big tips when she worked and free drinks at the bar. Her comments about grad school included the fact that she was hungover for her morning classes and had pic after pic of a bathtub full of ice and beer. I didn't hire her and neither did our school system. I thought she lacked good judgment and saw nothing about volunteer work or concern for children. She even publicly stated that she entered the field for the "dollahs". She's welcome to post what she wants online. I'm welcome to hire the person I want to hire.

somo_chickenlady Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) That's why my profile is set to be so private that all anyone (other than my friends) sees when they look at my profile is just my name, and nothing else about me, and I always use a non-descript profile picture (not a picture of me) so that if someone tries to search for me in FB they don't know if it is me or not. If you try to google me, nothing shows up. ;) If you go to your profile, you can click a button and you can see what your profile looks to the public, and make adjustments as necessary to make it more private. When I was doing mine, one thing showed up...the date we added our cat to our family. LOL I went back and changed that to be private.

Laura I would feel the same way. Your down time is your down time, but if you have no discretion and make a regular fool of yourself and openly share it/brag about it I would not want you as an employee either. I would not want someone who had no discretion in the office making a fool out of the company name kwim. If you don't want people in your private life, don't post about it on facebook. And if you want to share with like minded friends than have your privacy settings such that only those likeminded friends can see your posts on your page.

TravelingChris Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Noone I am friends with is on Facebook with public settings. Mine are private but even if they weren't, I don't wear skimpy clothing, get drunk, express strange opinions or anything.

swellmomma Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 WHo posts on FB publicly? :confused: I must be clueless because I thought you had to be friends with someone. Unless you set your privacy settings specifically that only friends can see your profile EVERYONE can see it. The default is a public profile. I know many people who have and still have public profiles. I have 1 friend that her profile is semi private, meaning friends and friends of friends can see and post on it. But she has it set that anyone can subscribe to her page so you do not have to be a friend to see everything she posts. Until last week I didn't even know about that setting until strange men started subscribing to my page. That feature is now gone on my page. So anyone can see your page even if you have it set to friends only by subscribing rather than friending you. Anyway back to that friend. Her whole page is about intactivism, and anti vax. If I post to her page my family etc can see those posts and reply as well. I have been told by family members that they would not hire someone who had a page like that because they come across as a fanatical nut job even if they would be hard workers, and nice people, no one wants to hire kooky people. So yeah even if you think your page is protected it may not be depending on what features you have turned on. And if ou use it to post about your wild weekends, or fanatical tirades it can cost you a good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on how you set up and use your account. It's a little tougher to find nowadays, but you can set your account so that all of your posts, by default, can be seen by everyone or just by your friends. You can also block specific people from seeing your account at all. And every single time you post a new status, you have the option of limiting who sees it . . . or not.

ravinlunachick Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Unfortunately, this new tactic of checking up on people online can backfire. My abusive xh has created NUMEROUS fake profiles in both my name and my dh's name, on FB and other sites. He steals real photos whenever he can, and he knows just enough info to make it look real. I seriously worry about what will happen to me if I'm looking for a job where they check up on me online. Will I have to disclose that I was married to an abusive, emotionally disturbed man for the rest of my life?!? :( I worry enough that some of our girl scout parents will google me for whatever reason and find this stuff.

SKL Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) Yeah, I don't see facebook as being a private place. It's more like putting a sign out in your front yard. I was very hesitant to use facebook, and now I am on there with a pseudonym. My brother posted some personal stuff (nothing gross, just family stuff) and I asked him to make it more private (friends only) as I didn't want all of my (11) friends to see it. I am very careful about what I post, and therefore my facebook personality tends to be extremely drab. But what about being tagged in someone else's photos? I'm not sure how that works - whether I could control the privacy settings on those. But yeah, people should have enough sense not to let it all hang out if they don't want everyone to see it.

Where would that end? Would you refuse to hire someone with a different political opinion than you? religious opinion? sexual orientation? And so on and so forth. Checking people online makes it very easy (too easy) for people to discriminate based on their personal likes and dislikes. No matter how you spin it it is a violation of a person's right to refuse them employment etc on grounds of those issues. Who's to say that what the person posted on FB about her parting was terrible or over the line? That is a very subjective decision on the boss's part. Where one person would not be bothered by an indication that someone goes out on the weekend, another may be bothered. I do believe that it is a violation of privacy. We have privacy settings on this forum, on blogs, and on twitter and Facebook because people need to respect other people's right to speech. Posting online is in the realm of freedom of speech. Great that the OP got a job, but the other person may have been just as qualified regardless of what she chose to share online. I also think it is wrong that police would force anyone to log onto a Facebook account. Again "poor judgement" would be very subjective under those circumstances.

All you see is a basic page with their name, their profile picture, a few things telling about them (sex, where they live, where they went to school, etc). Somebody probably mentioned this; but if this is so, it is because everyone you've tried has had their privacy settings set like that. Mine is open because I don't have anyone friended and the page is really set up for me to have one at all and for my children's birth parents to have contact with me if they wish (only the father wishes). I post a few pics and other random stuff (the drowning thing, that we bought the Magic Schoolbus set, etc). If I used facebook otherwise (had anyone friended, put information I don't care to be public, etc), I would have stricter privacy settings.
