Guide to Defensive Googling

Do you know what is found when someone does a Google search for your name? Someone else using the same name you use may have done something that is scaring away potential employers (or customers)! Nearly 100 million names are Googled every day. The vast majority of employers and recruiters Google names before hiring someone to avoid making a "bad hire."

Nearly half of employers regularly Google employee names! Having an employee post something nasty in social media can be embarrassing and cause the employer to lose business or be publicly humiliated. So, learn how to effectively practice "Defensive Googling" in this article by Susan P. Joyce.

Interview Preparation with Smart Google Research

Employers are typically impressed when job candidates ask good questions and demonstrate their knowledge and interest in the employer and the position. Google provides many opportunities to research the employer, and the results will do more that impress the interviewers.

Solid research will help you in many ways: Learn about the interviewers. Ask relevant and informed questions. Understand how the employer and their products/services are viewed by the world. Check out the location and possible commute. Verify that the job is not a scam. And learn MUCH more in this article by Susan P. Joyce.
