Help Will my potential employer know about me being on SS?

[Deadgirl]

I am applying for a job and herd they look through social media accounts and all. I am afraid that they will find my account here. I could care less about my social media.

Unless you put it on your job application or post links on F-book or some other data-mining media platform with your face and address on it, then no.

Unless you're applying to some government security/military agency or large bank/finance firm, they've got access to everything.

That's a huge relief!

You never know though, depending on the company/industry, and time. 5-10 years from now they'll probably have that kind of info conveniently available for employers, if not automated.

"There is no [guaranteed] privacy online" as the saying goes. We still have to try though.

While it is possible, I'd say in most jobs and positions if you keep your social media private (or lack of having one), or limit the amount of stuff you post on there, you should be fine. Just don't put anything controversial or sensitive such as this site or any topics of death, suicide, violence, or whatnot then you will be ok for the most part. Like @Divine Trinity said, if you are applying to military, government, banking, or other areas where you handle sensitive info or need clearances and what not, then they would check everything, but most other jobs, no they don't look or try to get access to everything.
