Employers Using Facebook for Background Checking: Is It Legal?
As a partial excuse for my lack of posts the last couple of days, I’m linking to a guest post I just completed for Steve Rothberg over at CollegeRecruiter.com, entitled: “Employers Using Facebook for Background Checking: Is It Legal?”
While you’re there, check out the site, if you haven’t already done so. It’s a blog — and then some — with many supplemental pages, brother-sister blogs, and job listings, among other things. Top resource for jobhunting students and employers looking to hire them.
Thanks, Steve, for invtitng my contribution and dogging me to follow through — to the point that I wound up doing it in the wee hours this morning . . . .
And now we’ll find out about Steve’s sense of humor, as I invited him to submit a Friday workplace humor entry for me . . . .
