In a survey of Web-surfers, human resource workers, and employment
recruiters across the U.S., U.K., Germany and France, researchers
found that, although most people acknowledge that their personal
online behavior may have ramifications in their professional lives,
comparatively few actually consider that fact when publishing photos
or posts online. A full 70-percent of surveyed HR workers in the U.S. admitted to
rejecting a job applicant because of his or her Internet behavior. Meanwhile, about 60-percent of surfers admit to being concerned that
their online behavior may affect their professional or personal lives.
A mere 15-percent of them, though, actually take these potential
repercussions into consideration when posting content. http://www.switched.com/2010/01/28/happy-data-privacy-day-70-of-job-applicants-rejected-over-onli/
