Social Psych SOP - Round 2

... example, one study examined how counterstereotypical targets may elicit racial backlash, while another study examined how the self-presentational styles of male and female job interviewees affect hireability and likeability.

The new Dark Ages are dawning

... for a real library with a real librarian or two. It's very obvious that these so-called educators have narrowed down the definition of education to include only "job readiness" and "hireability" and have completely forgotten the importance of breadth, exposure, and serendipity in exposure to literature, history, and, most importantly, VALUES.

Legal stuff

... the contract and be done with it, or squeak and compromise everyone else's chances of getting their part of the settlement. I do not need the money, I am (currently) financially stable and willing to forego this check if it means maintaining my re-hireability with any Company holding. Am I making a mountain out of a molehill, or am I taking a real risk by accepting this deal? Thoughts?

...s on my left forearm. I really enjoy it. It's fresh - they finished it three and a half hours ago - but I like it. It holds several levels of meaning for me, so it will always be close to my heart. Of course, when I told my mother, she freaked a little because it's on my arm. She thinks that will have some bearing on my hireability. I told her I'd just wear long sleeves to any job interviews. :P

25 things about Facebook

... I don't actually know how to give directions for it. 7. Stupid photos can be put up without one's knowledge especially ones involving alcohol. 8. #7 can have a huge negative impact on one's hireability- without one's even realizing it. 9. Colleges and companies can- AND DO- check you out, and learn things you might not have volunteered. 10. Using the privacy settings makes some difference, but ...

Participants then evaluated the applicants' competence, social skills, and hireability. Results revealed how disparate hiring criteria further discriminates against ambitious, competent women.
