JOBSEARCH: find your digital dirt first

FROM AN EMAIL EXCHANGE WITH A FELLOW ALUM

It’s always a good idea to google yourself to find the “digital dirt” that’s out there. I counsel out of work execs to do it and get out in front anything there. Even if it’s not “you”, it has to be addressed.

I even have search strings saved that post to special mail accounts that watch for the use of “my name”. How paranoid is that?
