      Interesting new interview question - what is your poster name on CUK?

      I would say NIckFitz - guaranteed to get the gig every time.

      Some big companies ask permies for their facebook page.

Their CV, however fabricated, reads as a good fit for the role.

          What do you do?
          If they can fabricate a good CV, that's good enough for me.

            You may find the exact opposite - that female posters pretend to be male because they don't want to face a barrage of misogynistic comments that they may face if certain people thought they were female.

                Did this candidate mention something about flogging sleds by the lorryload at the first sign of snow?

                    Hope that their online persona is completely different from their real-life one, and not let it get in the way.

                    And if they turn out to be a knob, keep quiet that you thought they might be a knob.
