For our generation's future careers, this idea of online resumes and Facebook pages may be very important. Potential employers are now able to check all of your information (including: education, awards, past work experience, job goals, and basically anything else that they would be interested in knowing about a future employee) before you are hired to a company. For example, I have found this website through google that now teaches employers how to recruit people to their company through the use of Facebook! Therefore, I believe that now, more than ever before, constantly being aware of how you are being perceived by others will be a very important skill to have and may affect your chances of getting employed.
Facebook page is new way to develop a resume. I agree with you that Facebook page potential employer can check all the information in Facebook page. It is very convenient for some companies to find employees. Facebook Page can save our time to write a resume, and delivery to the companies as well. The information is more complete, because sometimes people forget to write some information in hurry.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little startling when you think about how easy it is for potential employers to look up your information on social media websites. It's true when you say that our generation is more reliant on the internet and Facebook and how important that becomes with the advancement in technology and the easy accessibility of information online. in addition to this the responsibility of constantly being conscious of how we portray ourselves online, is definitely something we should all be aware of. Who knew Facebook could be the "make-it or break-it" factor of our futures!
