Anita Hill Talks Sexual Harassment with NPR
Anita Hill Talks Sexual Harassment with NPR Although itâs been almost 25 years since Anita Hill brought the topic of workplace sexual harassment into public discourse, the onetime employee of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said the environment in many workplaces still makes it difficult for sexual harassment victims to come forward. On NPRâs Morning Edition on Wednesday, Hill said that womenâs ability to confront sexual harassers has come a long way since 1991, when Thomasâ nomination was embroiled in controversy after Hill accused him of sexually harassing her when she rebuffed his advances. But she added that women still face an uphill battle, especially in cases where there is a power imbalance or the woman works for the person harassing her. âEven among women who seem very powerful in their jobs⦠these problems exist,â she said.

Recent high-profile instances, such as former Fox News host Gretchen Carlsonâs accusations about her boss, Roger Ailes, that led the former Fox News head to resign last month, prove that sexual harassment is still a problem, and underscore Hillâs point that even women in positions of power can still be victimized. âEven women who are perceived to have some power have trouble coming forward,â she said on NPR. Hill also blasted Fox News for reportedly sending Ailes on his way with a $40 million severance package, saying that arrangements like this prevent harassers from feeling the consequences of their actions.

7 Ways Your Social Media Profiles Are Killing Your Career - Work It Daily
7 Ways Your Social Media Profiles Are Killing Your Career - Work It Daily Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest may be fun places to hang out, but did you know theyâre also great places to grow -- or completely ruin -- a career? Itâs true: a whopping 77% of employers use social media to find candidates, while (perhaps more troubling) 20% of them use these platforms to screen out candidates as well. Related: What Your Social Media Says About You To Employers That means that if youâre concerned only with the personal aspects of your social media profile, you may be killing your career without even meaning to. Hereâs how. 1. You Overshare (Or Donât Share Enough) No one wants to know the ins and outs of every meal you eat, how hard you partied last night, or every excruciating detail about your recent gall bladder surgery -- not your friends, and certainly not employers. A good rule of thumb here is to think about what you would be comfortable saying to your boss or potential employers in person. If it seems like TMI, it probably is. However, donât let this advice scare you away from posting at all. In fact, regular updates are key to growing your following and building your expertise on social media platforms. Plus, you look plain out of touch when an employer stumbles upon your barren account, which hasnât been updated in months. Donât make an account unless youâre actually going to use it - and make sure to shutter any old social media accounts that you no longer use. 2. Your Friends Know No Boundaries Even if youâve got your social media etiquette in order, your friends may not. Thatâs a big problem if they post inappropriate updates or photos and tag you, so make sure that your privacy settings are such that they canât do any of this. And while weâre on the topic of friends, on sites like Twitter and LinkedIn, itâs important to grow your following strategically for another reason, too: networking. Joining interest groups, getting added to Twitter lists and engaging with people in your industry is a great way to establish your expertise and foster connections that might later land you jobs. 3. Your Posts Are All Over The Place I donât mean this in a good viral kind of way. I mean that your posts have absolutely no theme to connect them. This is a turnoff for followers, who may be interested in one of your favorite topics but not all of them, and itâs also a lost branding opportunity. Social media, after all, is a great place to establish yourself as an expert in your field -- and you can only do that by focusing on the contents of your posts. If thatâs too limited, you can always make, say, separate Twitter accounts for separate topics. 4. You Donât Engage In Conversations Regardless of how it might sometimes seem, social media isnât about you, you, you. If this is the mentality thatâs guiding your posts, youâre likely turning off employers, as youâre not demonstrating excellent interpersonal skills. Again, this is also not ideal for growing your following or even establishing your expertise. Instead, participate in real, engaging back and forth conversations so that you can show fellow industry professionals and potential employers what you can do, rather than telling them. 5. You Donât Have Your Privacy Settings Sorted Even if you keep everything PG, itâs generally a good idea to keep your privacy settings pretty tight, especially on Facebook, which tends to be more personal in nature. You might, for instance, create a list for work contacts so that you can restrict the amount of photos they see both overall and as you select who you want to share each post with. Facebookâs privacy policies change all the time, so keep up to date on their latest changes to ensure once youâve got this setup that your personal profile is still as private as you think it is. 6. Your Profiles Arenât Searchable That said, when you are actively looking for a job, social media is a great place to get found. To do this, make sure you fully fill out your profile on all platforms, using career keywords as you go, and ensure the essential aspects of your profile are publicly available to all who might seek you out. 7. Your Personal And Work Emails Are One And The Same If the email address youâre using to apply for jobs is the same as the one you used to sign up for your social media accounts, your employer will easily find this using job search software and can pull a fair amount of data right into their system. Again, keeping work and play separate, even at the level of email addresses, is essential for guarding your privacy. The Takeaway Used strategically, social media is an immensely powerful platform for growing your career. Used the wrong way, and it just might ruin it. Lock down your privacy settings, think before you tweet, and start connecting with influencers, and youâll have (or keep) your dream job in no time.
