When we use the Internet and especially social networks, we are not always careful about what we share with our friends in moments of relaxation. As a result, your e-reputation can take a hit. And it is therefore important to identify the risks that your reputation on the web can involve.
Indeed, the figures are clear since 53% of recruiters use social networks to recruit (and in my opinion this figure is still growing) because on the other hand, 91% of people looking for a job are present on these same networks. More worrying if your whole life is spread out on the web, 48% of recruiters say they "Google-ize" candidates and 53% of them are influenced by what they find about you on social networks.
It is therefore essential, if you are looking for work, to be impeccable in terms of your presence on the Internet.
It is based on this observation that the Mazars firm, specialized in auditing, accounting, taxation and business consulting, has put online a tool allowing you to analyze your e-reputation: nothing to hide (Nothing to hide).
To begin, the tool will ask you to connect your main social networks: Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and Twitter (if you have any).
Then, the tool will ask you about twenty questions about what it was able to find at random on your online profiles in order to see whether or not you take responsibility for the content that you have published and that you have long since forgotten: articles, photos, comments, etc. (photos of you naked, insulting or controversial comments, etc.) that's where you have to be careful.
Finally, the machine will analyze all of this in order to display your score (at 100% you are at the top) and will offer you some advice in order to improve things... but this remains quite limited.
In short, the objective of this tool is not so much to provide you with a complete review of your e-reputation because the analysis should be much more qualitative and therefore difficult to automate... but the interest of this tool is above all to make you aware of the implications that your e-reputation could have on your life and particularly on your professional career.
Conclusion: be careful what you put online! It can always turn against you!
To analyze your e-reputation, go to nothing to hide !
