Bloggers Need Not Apply

A very insightful article on how blogging can effect your employment prospects, although a lot of it is common sense. Blogging about your current job or any past ones with any discernible details is just stupid, plus if you are going to have a dark blog going into your inner thoughts about depression or anything then for your sakes please do so anonymously for a multitude of reasons!

A Google search is fast becoming litmus test for many employers especially within Information Technology so you have to be careful what you put online and put your name to. I always try to find a good balance keeping things like that in mind so I hope I would come off in a positive note if a prospective employer read my blog. :)
