The influence on hiring decisions made by chatrooms/internet

[BlizzardMan]

I'd say if a Coach applied for a job and he was asked by his friend about something pertaining to the said job and they told the friend and then the friend put the said information on a forum and the AD or principal etc. found out, even if it wasn't really information that was confidential, it could cost the Coach who applied the job.

Chatrooms and internet fall under "public pressure," and some schools seem to be more sensitive to that than others. Before the internet, this discussion took place at the local cafes, barber shops, and kitchen tables. On message boards, the few of us per school who post get amplified, but I don't think it is much different than things have always been.

Any institution that hires/fires based solely on chat board members rantings is either incompetent, corrupt, or both.
That said, never forget that an employer exercising due diligence in personnel decisions, if they want to invest the resources, can obtain a profile of a candidate's social media and internet posting history. Bottom line, think twice before you click as there is no real anonymity or privacy on the internet.

know a coach who was not chosen for a job somewhat recently and the reason stated by the AD was a DIRECT quote from this very site. There is definitely an influence with some

I can’t imagine anyone who is in the position of doing hiring. Telling someone one reason why they weren’t hired. Especially if it wasn’t a found fact.

I hire a lot of people at what I do when I don’t hire someone and they ask why. I either tell them why the interview didn’t go well or what skills or experience they were lacking.

If I can I even try to tell them where or how they can gain those skills. I can’t imagine telling someone I didn’t hire them because something I read.

LOL, yeah I'm sure that was the reason they weren't chosen.

Apparently allamericanironmen can still land a job even after all the crazy talk on here, so this disproves this theory.
