Facebook Employability

Browsing through the Miami Herald’s interesting new blog — it’s called Poked, and it’s about social networking sites and their use at work — I saw the image above and thought it spoke for all job-hunting collegians. The internet has become a place where dreams of employment are superseded by that time a Bud Light appeared in the background of a photo you were in. In an age where a Presidential candidate was candid about his use of marijuana in the past, I suppose there’s only one inference I can make from this: future employers don’t mind hearing that you went to a few parties in college. They just don’t want to see proof of it.
