One Last note…from a recent recruiting conducted survey of it’s membership recently, “do you check social networking sites for candidate information of “Google” candidates?”

RESULTS: 56% - check social networking sites 44% - neither check social networking

We could theorize that over half of all recruiters engage in these endeavors.04/12/23
