Erick Sass has reported on two surveys concerning the negative impact social media can have on employment. A 2013 survey found that 8% of individuals aged 16-24 had lost a job opportunity due to social media. A 2012 survey reported that 40% of hiring managers consult social media when screening job applicants. A third of the managers who consulted social media rejected an applicant based on what they found. Yet, “70% of those [young people] surveyed said they weren’t concerned about social media harming their future career prospects.”
