如果你是“開心”或“人人”此類大型社交網(wǎng)站的忠實擁護者，現(xiàn)在你可要小心自己的“線上形象”了。因為根據(jù)一項最新的微軟調(diào)查，在美國、英國、德國和法國，有超過70%的HR在面試之前都會綜合你在社交網(wǎng)站上表現(xiàn)、考慮是否給你面試機會！所以，如果他們發(fā)現(xiàn)你貼在網(wǎng)上的照片都是和朋友聚餐喝的爛醉……那么結(jié)果不用我說你也該知道如何。

還是上滬江新部落吧！哈哈……同樣是社交互動網(wǎng)站，你能讓HR看到你是個多么愛學(xué)習(xí)、又上進的好青年！沒準(zhǔn)一個高興，不用面試都錄用你啦！

Microsoft has released the results from a recent study that show just how negligent we are when it comes to managing our online image -- and how seriously that kind of negligence can hamper our chances of landing a job.

In a survey of Web-surfers, human resource workers, and employment recruiters across the U.S., U.K., Germany and France, researchers found that, although most people acknowledge that their personal online behavior may have ramifications in their professional lives, comparatively few actually consider that fact when publishing photos or posts online. A full 70-percent of surveyed HR workers in the U.S. admitted to rejecting a job applicant because of his or her Internet behavior. Meanwhile, about 60-percent of surfers admit to being concerned that their online behavior may affect their professional or personal lives. A mere 15-percent of them, though, actually take these potential repercussions into consideration when posting content.

By the same token, digital reputation can also have an equally positive effect on an applicant's chances; 86-percent of U.S. HR workers said that a good online reputation can have a positive impact on a job candidate's chances -- and about half said that a solid image can have a major impact. It's this positive spin that Microsoft's Peter Cullen wants readers to take away from the study, saying that "online reputation is not something to be scared of; it's something to be proactively managed." He urges the regular Web-user to cultivate "the online reputation that you would want an employer" to see.

In an ideal world, of course, your personal life would be impermeably separated from your professional existence. As we all know -- and as this study plainly shows -- that's just not the case anymore. We wouldn't recommend turning your Facebook profile into some saccharine rendition of a cover letter, though, as overt self-promotion is probably as much of a professional turn-off as those pics of you taking Jell-O shots freshman year. But just be aware that your online character is as much a part of your CV as your off-line character. It sucks, but it's reality.
