SARASOTA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Americans are not likely to concern themselves with their online reputation information while looking for work, according to recent polling.
A recent online survey conducted by The Harris Poll on behalf of NetReputation.com among over 2,000 US adults shows that nearly three-quarters of Americans would not be concerned about their online reputation information when looking for work, despite the fact that information that potentially reaches years into the past cannot be removed and is now readily available on the Internet to employers and Human Resources professionals making hiring decisions.
“Online reputation information is now the standard by which many employers evaluate potential hires so managing that information is a crucial aspect of finding work, and in many cases keeping a job,” said Adam Petrilli, NetReputation.com CEO and founder.
According to the survey, nearly 3 in 4 Americans (71 percent) say they would not be concerned about what a potential employer might find about them when conducting a full background check that includes online/social media information, with more than half (54 percent) strongly disagreeing with the idea that they’d have any concern about their online reputation information.
