When I was a little younger I pretended I had some edgy reason to not have a Facebook but really it was so I could cheat :/

Cyks posted:I'll answer seriously. Yeah I kind of got bored with the topic after my rant. I think the majority of us are in agreement that hiring managers will check Facebook to try to gather as much information about the person as they can. Let's say a guy without a Facebook profile makes the shortlist and is one of three final candidates for a position. The other two candidates both have Facebook profiles. Assuming that there's nothing on their profiles that would put off the hiring manager, everything else being equal, is it not more likely that the candidate without the Facebook profile would be passed on purely because the hiring manager has less information about that person regarding how they might present themselves outside of the office? I'm not currently looking for a job, but the thought came across my mind that if I do decide to look for a job, not having a social media presence might hurt my chances. My Linkedin is on point, but that says nothing about the type of people I might associate with. And yes, I'm definitely implying that a hiring manager will make assumptions about an individual based on (as an example) how many of their Facebook friends have pictures of themselves doing drugs / pissing on a cop car / flicking off the camera. And no, I wouldn't blame them for doing so, but what I'm saying is that without having a Facebook profile they wouldn't know that.

At the same time, media creation is the easiest it has ever been, and I think documenting our lives for future generations provides value. He who does not know history is doomed to repeat it and all that. Admittedly I don't know how that translates to babies first steps on facebook. the lesson future generations will learn is not to post to social media.

Not having a facebook is probably net-better in the eyes of most employers because that means there are fewer avenues to make a retard of yourself and embarrass the company.

LinkedIn is even worse than Facebook because its all "I love capatalism" and "You won't believe what this AWESOME manager did for his co-workers" and "Why minimum wage should be LOWER" and "Work from home and earn MILLIONS". Hell here are some examples of articles on mine: Random Person I coach people how to use their stories to land ideal work. 🤝🏼 Stories + Job Search Strategy | Speaker | Coach | M.Ed How to deal with being rejected for a job. Random Person2 CEO at Place - Helping leaders and their organizations accelerate innovation. Forget brainstorming to come up with NEW ideas, it doesn't work.

for social situations most people will simply accept that you aren't on facebook because they aren't actually all that interested in you. even if they react with surprise that is more likely to be because facebook is standard in their social circle than any desire to know more about why you personally are not on facebook.

Facebook is only a liability. Unless you’re on fb posting about your volunteer work at UNICEF, which should be on your resumé anyway. Not having Facebook isn’t a problem, it’s one less opportunity for you to embarrass the company. I did ninth-degree background checks with LexisNexis anyway, an old habit from my days doing loans an repos.

I haven't had Facebook for a few years, I was thinking of getting an account again cause I was wondering what I'm missing out on and then my work decided they were going to replace our intranet portal with some enclosed Facebook for our company. Holy Christ I don't know why people would actively seek out this experience. I get a headache just trying to navigate the pages and parse information from it. I honestly don't remember it being that bad when I last used it but there's no way I'd use it now.

Facebook at my university ca. 2005 was basically a dating site. It made it easy to find people in your classes, and messaging someone you didn't know based on coursework/shared interests wasn't considered weird. There were also no privacy controls wrt what other students at your school could see, and I feel like people kept things pretty basic because of that. But then it turned into garbage and I deleted mine a few years ago.

I like it for social things... I would never have heard about a volunteer opportunity at my local zoo without FB, which I greatly enjoy doing. Once I blocked everyone posting 1. Political crap 2. Nonstop pics of their "fur babies" Facebook became quite useful.

I've found both FB and LinkedIn to be fairly pointless with regards to job searching. I try to maintain my LinkedIn well enough, though, just in case someone asks for it. That said, I do agree with others that you should keep FB apolitical and as neutral in tone as possible.

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:what's it like not knowing a time before america collectively lost its goddamn minds America makes a lot more sense one you fully internalize that: a) 1 in 5 Americans are mentally ill. source: National Institute of Mental Illness b) most people are dumber than you. source: math/statistics c) all of these crazy, dumb people have a voice on social media source: Facebook Once you realize that those very outspoken people around you don't live in the same world that sane, intelligent people do, it all makes a lot more sense. Then you can just smile and realize you're observing animals in a zoo. It's very liberating. So if that company expects a Facebook presence? You know it's run by idiots, and adjust your expectations accordingly.
