Could your social media cost you a job?
Could your social media cost you a job? It just might.
Employers often check a candidate’s online presence as part of the hiring process — and what they find can either strengthen or weaken your application.
Before applying for roles, take a moment to do a quick social media audit. Here’s how:
✅ Review your posts, retweets, and comments for anything offensive or unprofessional
✅ Google yourself — you might find old content or forgotten accounts
✅ Check privacy settings on all active accounts and deactivate the ones you no longer use
✅ Ask friends not to tag you in anything that wouldn’t reflect well professionally
And remember — social media can also be a powerful tool for your job search. Learn how to make it work for you here:

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
