Not All Profiles Click With Employers

Not All Profiles Click With Employers Lisette Szeto thinks she’ll have a lot to offer an employer when she graduates in December. The English major will hold a degree from the University of Tampa, and she has a bubbly personality and an exciting social life. But it may be more exciting than she wants the world to know, now that she’s job hunting. Szeto, 22, soon plans to shut down her Web site at MySpace.com, where she reveals quite a lot about her social adventures. "The photos are of me, typically drinking with friends, and I don’t want future employers to see that," Szeto said. She also plans to delete her dating stories and confessions of her fondness for bikinis and reading CliffsNotes of novels rather than the books. "Every single person I know has a MySpace page. … Everything is up there for everyone to see." "Everyone" includes potential employers and career recruiters.
