thank u op.

u talk tru.

because of the ownership of business is different from the management of business nowadays that is professionalism in business, the owners are using every means even occultic and spiritual means to screen the any job applicants or any employee they want to entrust their business to run for them. I was a living witness.

So mind ur comments on facebook or any social media.


Are you dead now?

makes sense.

I think they said some companies have you log on your facebook page during the interview.

I remember reading something like that here on nairaland.

yes even @dat uploading pics where one is zipping beer is uncalled for, it destroys the image of the company itself.... And might lead to a suspension or sack

People tend to forget that we are in an era of digital footprints.

No, its not supposed to be uploaded or recorded on any media.

And if recorded, then deleted.

When someone walks on the beach he/she leaves footprints behind. Same thing applies to the internet. Any data/information that you upload online is like a footprint and can be traced to you using different means (username, email, phone, pictures, videos, IP adress etc.). All your acrions are like footprints.

Your digital footprint is everything that is on the internet about you: photos you or others have posted on facebook, tweets you've made, your linkedin profile etc some of which can be viewed by people you don't know including prospective employers.

See the Sai Baba crew trying to hoodwink people to stop attacking baba one chance, the Daurarian dullard

When you guys were on rampage using all manner of uncouth and foul languages against GEJ, u did'nt know you could. be tracked or sacked? SMH!

If Lai Mohammed, FFK, Reuben Abati, Omokri, Olisah Methu with their acerbic languages are employable or gainfully employed, then this una story na wash!!

Except so... If that's the case, I will say someone recently hacked my account and changed my login details. And if they can help me retrieve it, I will be grateful!

But on a second thought, I may just help them login!
