Can Googling a Potential Hire Put You At Risk Overview

More and more hiring managers are using Google, MySpace and Facebook to conduct background checks on job applicants. One in three of those searches result in the rejection of the applicant, according to a recent study.

Managers could be putting their company in danger, risking a discrimination lawsuit, or possibly violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
