Re: Article: Hiring Managers Reject More than Half of Candidates Based on Web Postings

Thought control is alive and well.  Be careful...big brother is watching 
you...and you....and you over there too.

I've been known to post a few good political rants and then and have had 
no problems (yet) getting work.  It's pretty bad when you have to look 
over your cyber-shoulder to make sure some HR type doesn't sift a tidbit 
from the glut and use that to determine if you'll be a good employee or 
not.  I don't look at it as loosing a job.  I look at it as not having 
to deal with a company that has just invaded my privacy.

Then again, why would you put compromising photos of yourself on the web 
in the first place...and who's having the toga party and didn't invite 
all of us?
