"Employers will search for you."

I said this in a separate comment, but I want to read this here, in response to what you said. In the last 10 years, I've never had an employer search for me online. Never.

How would you even know that?

I've had several search for me. I know this because they've raised it in interviews, asking things like "The <X> library you tweeted about is interesting. Where would you use that?"

Just because they don't tell you that they read your blog posts or searched for your accounts doesn't mean they didn't…

My last two employers mentioned searching for me online. Or rather, they brought up the results of the search.
