>Increasingly, the traditional CV and interview are being abandoned as firms use new forms of data aggregation to find employees. This new field of recruitment, dubbed workforce science, is based on the idea that the data individuals create while doing things online can be harvested and interpreted and to provide a better idea of a person’s suitability than traditional methods. (...) “Today, every email, instant message, phone call, line of written code and mouse-click leaves a digital signal. These patterns can now be inexpensively collected and mined for insights into how people work and communicate, potentially opening doors to more efficiency and innovation within companies.” (...)“Résumés are actually curious constructs now because, for the most part, work and our work product is fundamentally digital. Sometimes you don’t even need [résumés]. The reality of what somebody is and what they do … is already resident on their hard drive or their Evernote or their box.net account or their Dropbox cloud.”
>The data-gathering technology, to be sure, raises questions about the limits of worker surveillance. “The larger problem here is that all these workplace metrics are being collected when you as a worker are essentially behind a one-way mirror,” says Marc Rotenberg, executive director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, an advocacy group. “You don’t know what data is being collected and how it is used.”
Whats the next step? Obligatory cameras at your home, so you will never quit the role of actor for job? Completely giving up your own self and personal life, because "company demands it"?
Nothing to hide nothing to fear! Until your life depends on a company not finding a post you made about jews back in 2011

I have nothing, except my website with login on my own server. Mobilephone? Yeah here is my number, but my blocker won't let you through if I don't have your number saved. No social media at all, no CV online, no shithub, nothing. I write an email to a company, telling them that I think they need me. This is all, this is how I got my job. Did this 4 times in my life, never heard something bad, always got an answers, always was invited. You have to be a bit smug, but act like the know-it-all-better-than-everyone. Don't lie, tell them what you can do and make sure to be able to prove it.
That is all I can say. You know the saddest part OP? There will be comments following, saying that I am a liar. If only they knew. I am 27 years old, work full time and enjoy my free time. Work and private space are not bound together. >inb4 uhh basement dweller, living with ur mom, doesn't know how the world works. Go write that as a reply to my post. In this thread, I am not going to prove anything, because there is no job for me to get here. Just smile.

but don't act like the know-it-all* What a nasty mistake.

>user, it seems you have excelent references and skills... but we found out that 10 years ago, when you were 16, you used to say, lets see... "get wrecked fag" while playing online video games with your friends. We dont want such immature people here.
>user, our research showed that you like to browse anime sites during weekend evenings. We dont want degenerates here, Im afraid we have to fire you.
>user, we discovered that you supported cadidate A for last elections and as you well known, boss supports B. We dont want such peple here, you are being fired.
Ian Hughes
>Work and private space are not bound together.
They shouldnt, but whole deal with the articles here and method itself is that there are employers who really want them to be tightly linked. That they want to judge you not just by your skills but how you behave outside your job.
They want to make you their cattle, their slave, with no persoal life and 100% linked to your job. For job to become your life.
>I have nothing, except my website with login on my own server >I write an email to a company, telling them that I think they need me. This is all, this is how I got my job.
Its not widespread yet, thankfuly, but more and more bigger companies start to act like that. There are stories already about people denied job simply because they didnt had Facebook accounts and HR couldnt check their personal profile that way. Im not kidding.
If this would be allowed to spread, in near future person like you wouldnt get the job simply because HR would mark him or her as "hiding something" and dangerous.
Thats whats scary.

More likely to be the opposite given how unemployed democrats seem to be.

lol, the company I work for forget they even bring people in to interview and scramble at the last minute to get everything together.
I wouldn't worry about this being prolific just yet, especially if you need to pay money for this.

>How does it makes you feel?
I still have no Twatter, no blog and I almost never upload anything new to my social newtork page past interesting links.
Even if one can suppose that DropBox will be used I do not have it either.
I could not care less.
Thomas Jenkins
You dont get it at all.
Its not about how you are "safe" because you dont own accounts in such services.
Its about how at some point in the future you would be denied jobs BECAUSE you dont have them and HR will decide you cant be trusted because they cant check you.
Basically what said - you refuse to let them spy on you? Too bad, we wont hire you then.
And the real problem is that there WILL be people who would let it happen because a lot of people will do everything to get the job. There are countries where some "jobs" are offered under minimal wage using "holes" in law (like people working 8 hours per day but not under "job" but under "order" just to avoid being forced to pay minimal wage) and whenever people object there are ALWAYS desperate idividuals who would even agree to work for bowl of potatoes, "just hire me, please!".

It will get worse as surveillance and face detection gets better. >Here we see you watching the breasts of this woman >Normally, we wouldn't hire people such as yourself >We are willing to make an exception when you accept this pay downgrade

The joke is this will affects everybody but the masters but they already own everything and have the means to enforce this.
Dylan King
This. When they can't reach you, governments will use the power of conformism to get you. The normies will be the one to single you out, the government doesn't need to do anything.
In China, what you publish on the internet has an effect on your credit score. That system isn't mandatory yet, its in trial, but I think it will be in 2020 or something like that. Basically any ideas you spread on the internet that is judged anti-China or opposed to the ruling party will lower your credit score, BUT it will also lower the credit scores of people who are connected to you on social networks. The majority is then defined by who/what it rejected. All the government needs to do is point out what is wrong, and the majority will destroy it by isolating it.

Well obviously this shit would cost moneys and obviously those who won't do this shit will have gains.
Look at this agile/scrum bs, of course it is used but it is not unconditionally profitable.
Unless USA fucks the shit up really badly and the rest of the world copies it it won't be a serious problem unless you when being hired by some retarded company like Google (gwan.com/blog/20160405.html).

Cameron Adams
But its already there.
That form of collecting and analyzing data was utilized in last campaign in US, allowing to draw personally adjusted arguments for undecided and supporters and convincing opposers to stay at home instead of voting. As you could see, it worked really well.
This is the future of politics - personalized campaigns supported by data mining.
Joseph Evans
You guys are thinking about this the wrong way.
Instead of thinking "how are companies going to use this to screw me over" you need to consider "how can I use this to my advantage in getting hired"
Daniel Ross
What I meant was that campaigns will be dragging up old blogs and forum posts, because by then candidates would have been teenagers while the internet was around.
We will see CWCiki editors become campaign staffers.
Mason Jackson
Except its mostly at your disadvantage instead. To make it work positively for you, you would need to adjust your very personal life or at least the internet part. Sole fact that you post on Sup Forums could work against you.
Unless you would give up on internet at all, turning your online activity into second job, this time orientated around playing the role of good candidate.
Carter Powell
You cocksucker! You really think they will ever tell you the truth about why you are being let go?

They can say anything they want to make it sound 100% legit, but you'll never know the true reason.

>The reality of what somebody is and what they do … is already resident on their hard drive or their Evernote or their box.net account or their Dropbox cloud
I do not use Evernote, box.net, or Dropbox. If someone is using data resident on my hard drive against me, I will file felony charges against them for violations of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. By the end of it all, someone WILL be put behind bars.
>user, we discovered that you supported cadidate A for last elections and as you well known, boss supports B. We dont want such peple here, you are being fired.
Depending on the state, this smells like a lawsuit.

This is such a great thing to wake up to seeing giving me such confidence that Ill ever have real success, thanks Linkedin!
Anthony Ross
And then HR will be confused when comparing your networks profile with history of your Sup Forums posting and decide you have split personality.

Or not.
