CollegeGrad.com, the #1 Entry Level Job Site.

You may have had fun drinking last weekend, hate your boss, or vote libertarian, but for the sake of your job search, think twice before sharing it on Facebook. Hiring managers are now consulting with social networking sites like Facebook to evaluate applicants; many will rule out any job applicant who presents himself or herself in an unprofessional way.

Managers may look at your photos, your friends, and your status updates. Facebook can be a great job search tool--watch this one-minute video on how to make it work for your career.

"Have you changed your content at MySpace or Facebook because of your job search?"

CollegeGrad.com polls college grads and jobbseekers to learn about the current job search trends. Have you voted in this month's poll yet?

Sometimes the only thing that comes between you and your next job is your foot in your mouth. Remember this list of what NOT to say in your next interview.

• "I couldn't get along with my boss." Forty-nine percent of hiring managers surveyed cited badmouthing a former boss as the worst interview offense.
• "What do you do here?" An Accountemps survey of 150 hiring managers reports that 47 percent think having little or no knowledge of the company is the most common interview mistake.
• "How much does this job pay?" Asking about salary or company benefits in the interview is a big no-no. It implies that you care more about the money than the job.

Even in the current economic climate, the future is sunny for some. The Wall Street Journal reports that many financial firms have begun hiring again in 2009. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that business careers, such as management consultant, accountant, or human resources personnel, should be the fastest growing from 2006 through 2016. For most of these, a master's degree in business is required. Luckily, these are also some of the most highly paid careers in the U.S. today. In fact, management consultants often earn six figures--and for good reason. In this competitive market, businesses pay top dollar for qualified individuals who can offer solutions that save them money while improving efficiency.
