Employers really do check your social media accounts before hiring. Here are the types of posts that might prevent you from getting a job.
"The message to job seekers is to use common sense," said Michael Erwin, a senior career advisor and spokesman for CareerBuilder. "If you are job searching or know you will be, make sure your social media presents you in a way that will make an employer want to hire you."
The company's online poll, conducted in the spring, surveyed more than 1,000 hiring managers and human resources professionals.50 percent22 percent In 2006, when CareerBuilder first began tracking whether employers were making social media checks, just 12 percent of companies were using them as a screening tool. By 2010 that figure had grown to 25 percent and now stands at 70 percent.
And based on the survey, the scrutiny continues after you're hired: 48 percent of respondents say they monitor current employees' social media activity.
