Virtual Offices May Help Retain Best and Brightest
The survey also reveals that job seekers are more social than the overall workforce, with 88 percent having at least one social networking profile; 64 percent have accounts on at least two networks and 44 percent using three or more. Twenty-four percent of job seekers report they’ve been asked for social media profiles during the interview process.
"With fierce competition for jobs, which now includes a majority of employed people on top of active job seekers, social media has become a critical tool for job hunting and career growth," says Dan Finnigan, president and CEO, of Jobvite. "One in six job seekers polled credited a social network for leading to their current/most recent employment.”

Employers Hiring Virtual Office Workers With Criminal Records?
Indeed, a new CareerBuilder study shows organizations are open to giving people who have had run ins with the law a second chance. Specifically, 51 percent of human resource managers reported that their organizations have hired someone with a criminal record.
“The number one recommendation hiring managers have is to own your past and focus on what you learned from it to grow professionally and personally,” says Rosemary Haefner, vice president of Human Resources at CareerBuilder. “You also want to stay active. Taking classes, volunteering and tapping into social networks can be good ways to help overcome obstacles associated with job hunting with a criminal past.”
Although the study didn’t point out how many of those employers let workers set up in virtual offices, it makes sense that employers would be more likely to give someone with a criminal record a chance to telecommute from a virtual office. Likewise, job hunters with criminal records should look for virtual office opportunities.
Virtual office jobs often include freelance or temporary assignments, which is one of the recommendations CareerBuilder makes for job hunters with criminal records. All in all, the good news is people with criminal records have less of a stigma today than they did in the past, whether they work in a traditional or virtual office.
