What role does social media play in the hiring process? According to MBAOnline, social media is how hiring gets done in this day and age. Maybe they’re correct, and maybe their data needs some scrutiny by ball busting number crunchers.

As Media Bistro points out, “an eyebrow-raising 36,600,000 Americans used social media to find work, representing about 16 percent of the adult population.” If that were true, I’m sure President Obama or all of his rivals would have claimed victory for it.
Good data or bad, I’m wondering, do you have anecdotal evidence you can bring to the debate?
