I read a GREAT, must-read article late last night on the NewYorkTimes.comentitled, “Social Media History Becomes a New Job Hurdle.”

Turns out there is a new cyber-detective in town and he is being hired to scope out job prospects before an in-person job interview. The company is calledSocial Intelligence. Social Intelligence scrubs the web for any content you may have posted that could harm your ability to get a new job, for the potential employer.

Did you read my inaugural post for this column, A Very Public Valentine? If not, please do, but the basic premise is – if you want a comment, video, message, photo image to never be visible to the masses then NEVER post it ANYwhere on the web. Never, ever, ever.

To hammer this home a bit more TechCrunch reportedtoday that Facebook had a glitch that inadvertently revealed private thumbnail videos for nearly a week!

Glitches happen all the time and it would be a shame if a comment you posted on someone else’s blog or a seemingly private Facebook group you joined deterred you from getting your dream job or any job for that matter.

Have you had any sticky social media moments in your life? If yes, give us an overview in the comments – but don’t share too much!
