Don’t Invade My Space

The following is a guest post from Bob Sale and if we had our way, there will be more to come from him. In order to illuminate why social networking sites such as Myspace might be misleading to employers, let me paint you a mind picture: You’re an employer.  You received a resume that caught your attention because it was really good……a little too really good.  You become suspicious and decide to research the person’s personality by googling their name.  You type in Rob Jansen into the search engine and …

Cells then group together to form organs, which in turn group together to form organ systems. This is what makes up the human being and everything else that goes along with being one: going to work, paying taxes, not slamming the jerk that just cut you off  (also known as living everyday as a human being).
