<\/div>\n

In the age of Google, we all naturally turn to the internet when we\u2019re facing a challenge. For example, \u201cHow do you snake a drain?\u201d, \u201cWhat\u2019s the best way to get over a hangover?\u201d, or perhaps even, \u201cHow do I land my dream job?.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re currently in the market for a new career<\/a>, you\u2019ve probably spent a little bit of time trawling through websites and blogs searching for sound advice. On the whole, the message is generally the same: use your network, dress appropriately, create an impressive online portfolio, yadda yadda.<\/p>\n

For years, we\u2019ve listened to the same advice. One of the main tips that experts like to throw out there is to clean up your social media<\/a> accounts before applying for jobs. A YouGov study from 2017 found that over a third of UK Employers rejected candidates based on their Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or LinkedIn profiles<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve all heard the horror stories. An HR manager found pictures from your second cousin\u2019s stag weekend and rescinded the company\u2019s job offer. Or a potential boss stumbled across your neighbour\u2019s tagged pictures on Instagram and decided that you weren\u2019t \u201cquite the right fit for their brand.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the past, we were told to scrub our social media accounts clean or risk missing out on opportunities. But is this really still necessary?<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, it might be.<\/p>\n

A few weeks ago, Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin made headlines across the globe. A video of the 36-year-old partying with friends went viral on social media. While the video itself was harmless, it did highlight how stringent the standards are for young professionals \u2014 especially women \u2014 on social media.<\/p>\n

Here was an extremely successful, respected woman being chastised for simply having a good time with her friends on her night off. Let\u2019s be honest, we\u2019ve all been there. And the fact of the matter is, workers have a right to enjoy their downtime in whatever way they choose. But old habits die hard and unfortunately many companies, brands, and people will still judge you by what you post online.<\/p>\n

Gradual shift<\/h2>\n

Things are slowly moving in a new direction. Thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic, the rise of remote work, and the arrival of Gen Z into the workplace, we\u2019re seeing a gradual shift to more relaxed, casual work environments. Employees are being encouraged to bring their whole selves to work as employers champion diversity of thought. However, the story of Sanna Marin has highlighted just how much further we have to go.<\/p>\n

In 2022, it doesn\u2019t make sense that any workplace would violate your privacy and spend time looking into your social media accounts. If you\u2019ve got ample experience, good references, and a positive attitude, that really should be all that matters when it comes to applying for, and performing in a job.<\/p>\n

Who really cares if you like to go to nudist beaches on your holiday or spend Sunday morning at a warehouse rave? You do you. And as for old-fashioned companies that trawl through your social media accounts, who needs them?<\/p>\n
