Career Builder showed that 70% of employers use social media to screen candidates, the more astonishing number is, of those employers, more than 50% said they found something that made the employer not hire the candidate. Other studies on this topic put this percentage closer to 69%.

With between 70 and 90 percent of employers using social media to make hiring decisions, you should not feel like you are doing anything wrong…on the contrary, reviewing publicly posted information about your candidate is the best way to discover if your next hire is the best fit for your organization. In order to stay legal and avoid EEOC violations, you should centralize this function internally and always outsource to an FCRA certified provider.
