Q Social media is changing the landscape of hiring and promotion. Some companies are going to candidates’ social media pages (i.e. Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace) and looking at their postings and pictures before making hiring decisions. Some would argue that this can lead to impermissible discrimination by viewing this information. Some might argue that this is a violation of privacy and should not be allowed. Others would argue that viewing this information is fair game if the person did not opt to make their profile confidential. What is your opinion? Defend your thoughts.
