Do employers really check out a candidate's social media presence before hiring them? I get they might check out LinkedIn, but they don't waste time checking out TikToks or Instagram?

Yes, they absolutely do check.

Mind blown. I apologize. Thank you.

It probably depends on the company and the position, but I could see potential employers being concerned about social media. If it takes a few minutes to make sure you're not hiring someone whose social media feed could become a scandal, that's time well spent. You see stories all the time about companies getting rid of people when it turns out their social media pages are utterly toxic and it reflects very poorly on the organization.

Some companies definitely check your presence on social media because it could be a source of marketing for them

Do you continue to see in-flight interview processes through once you’ve received and accepted an offer? It feels premature to cut the chord on the others, but also the decision between the companies becomes harder. Also afraid of the possibility to go back on the acceptance of the one role in favor of another.

Right so here’s a bit of a dilemma I work to a much higher standard at home and it’s this high standard that means I’m in line for a promotion.

The problem is we’re going back into the office and I don’t want to go in if it’s just going to be senior management in asking me to get them lunches for client meetings or fetch a glass of water and cutlery for meeting rooms. Definitely not ready to go back to that….

Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
