Google tells me that: “HireRight reports social media comments to employers only if the prospective employer explicitly requests and pays for a social media background screening package as part of their pre-employment check”
Anyone in recruiting in the US ever seen candidates not hired because of their social media posts being too pro human rights?
I may just be too old or what, but here’s how I do things:
- Don’t post political opinion with my name on it, unless it’s really certifiably not fringe (pro mental health, climate change is real, supporting LGBT rights … is stuff I can live with).
- Separate mail with separate account and nicknames for different things.
- Apply for a job? Don’t do it from iloveunicorns@xyz cause then I can just search where someone used that nickname …
- If you’re using GitHub and you use an alt there, make sure that’s not using the same alt as your random rants on Reddit.
Basically separate business stuff from your fringe opinions.
I even separate my non-fringe comments from my identifiable accounts because who knows who is going to take over the country next year. I’ve lived in a third world country long enough, and seen enough things there to be paranoid even after moving to a first world country. 🤷♂️
Anti-Israel, or anti-genocide? Because with the current global events and zionists going off on the slightest provocation this terminology is very suspicious
little late in reply here, but I dont see that any honest person can separate Israel from genocide. The Nakba started on minute one of Israels existence and they violated the standards of partition and balfour immediately. It was a racist ethnic cleansing warcrime from the first minute. There is no peaceful version of Israel thats now or ever possible. Its a terrorist cabal and “Israelis” who “settled” in that area that was already settled by its rightful owners need to be “settled” someplace else. We need restorative justice for the mass murdered. If some native born “Israelis” are inconvenienced by that, well too bad, its the least awful thing that would have happened so far and owners of stolen property are obliged to give it back even if its inconvenient.
If they wont leave they need to be made to leave. Its not their land – it never was and they are racist criminals.
