Reputation damage
While social media can be used to secure future employment, it can also put off potential employers who may look at an individual’s Facebook page, Instagram or Twitter contributions, as well as their CV.
Question
Why could looking at an individual’s social media contributions put off potential employers?
There may be comments, pictures or videos that do not promote an individual in a positive light, so employers may think that they will not be a good fit for the organisation’s values and identity.
