Hello harried job-hunter!
Here’s another reason for recruiters to be nosing through your Facebook page: Academic studies from Northern Illinois University, the University of Evansville, and Auburn University suggest that your Facebook profile can predict on-the-job performance.
Researchers say they found a strong correlation between job performance and Facebook profiles that had previously been scored for traits like conscientiousness, agreeability, and intellectual curiosity.
If the academic studies are correct, Facebook could become a job-screening tool, actually taking away the ability to create a fake personality for interviews that doesn’t match a candidates typical behavior.
