Social Media & Employment
Accordingly to a 2014 survey by
CareerBuilder.com, 51% of all employers
use social networking sites to research
job candidates, rejecting those whose
social media profiles include provocative
photos, evidence of drug use or drinking,
negative posts about previous employers
or co-workers, or comments that might be
interpreted as racist, sexist or ageist.
This figure is up from 34% in 2012.

Social Media & College
Social Media & College
A recent study by Kaplan found that
nearly 1/3 of college admission officers
check social media to see if an applicant
would make a good fit at their
educational institution. Up 5% from last
year.
12% of college admission applicants were
rejected because of what the college saw
on social media.
Before you send, text, forward
or post, ask yourself. . . .
Will I be embarrassed if the whole school sees it?
Could it jeopardize my chance at college or jobs?
Am I sure this is a good idea?
Could it hurt my reputation?
Can this get me in trouble at school or home?
Will my parents be mad?
Is it illegal?
Misusing Social Media
Ramifications for CHS students
Social Media Misuse
Regardless of whether or not the misuse
(bullying, intimidation, threats, sexting,
etc.) of social media occurred during the
school day or on school property, CHS
administration has an obligation to
investigate.
If the social media misuse violates school
rules by creating a disruption to the
educational environment and process, the
school may pursue disciplinary action,
which may include suspension or
expulsion.
