Do people use social media status to judge if I'm a loser? I only have 250 friends on facebook and the number next to my snapchat name only says 400. When I look at Chad and Stacy's facebook they have 1,000+ friends and they have 50,000+ next to their snapchat name. Do people look at that stuff and figure out I'm a fucking loser?

then they won't hire you. There was a startup incubator type company I applied to and they literally ask for your twitter account in the application. I called to ask if it was required and they told me not to even bother applying since I don't have twitter/instaface/normiegram/

Nobody gives a shit dude

People judge if you're a loser by spotting if you spill spaghetti or not
>>
>>28282775
no dude, depending on the field they absolutely give a shit. It's like a credit report for social competance. I'm sure it's not nearly as prevalent in fields like the trades and union work, but it's not uncommon outside that

This thread is ridiculous, if you make a good impression on your interviewer or whoever you're in contact with at the company they don't give a shit about your social media status
>>
Most people ~22 and up don't give a fuck about Facebook. We have a warped view because on Facebook we can only see the small group of active users.

The point is if they check your social media and see you have a low number or no friends or no presence you WONT even get the interview callback to begin with.

This isn't every company but some hiring managers (Stacies) have decided that people with low followers or no presence are weird and not worth bothering with.

The first generation of FB users are now over 30, you're completely wrong.

He thinks we're joking about your number of Facebook friends having an impact on your ability to get a job.

>>28284119
I've kind of done similar. Lied forever on my applications and never been caught. I'm in IT too, but I'm still basically as low as it gets.

Wtf is snapchat and what kind of normie loser do you have to be to use it

You can hide your Facebook friends.
Girls still judge likes, but having a few good pictures is what matters the most if you're not going to use social media constantly.
