    Final's thread left me curious. They ask questions on whether I'm disabled or not so I can not tick the box saying I'm disabled but I'm wondering... do employers really Google your name to see if you're worthy?

    I'm serious, I've applied many times yet I never got a formal interview.

    All the YouTube videos are unlisted on my channel.

    @Deadpool Not talking about social media, talking about the Google search results... I keep my social media nonsuspect and seperate from my real life. At least I figured that out last year.

    If you work in IT, it's highly likely. I've only ever seen/heard of employers doing it in office environments that rely heavily on computer usage.

    At one of my jobs, a few of the younger girls would literally go through the resumes searching names up on facebook and being like "lol he's a bogan" (rich suburb so no job for him, even tho i was poor as f--- and living in a ghetto an hour away :coco: )
