Why cybervetting is becoming a new norm and how job seekers can use it to their advantage

Abstract

It's amazing how drastically our lives are divided into "before" and "during" COVID. Although it is difficult to predict exactly in which direction the world will move "after", it is safe to assume that it will continue, either by inertia or free choice, to move towards an even more digitalized future, where new times will dictate new norms. This reality has impressed many people, and many companies around the world have faced the harsh demands of a changing world: move into the digital space or return to the past.Dana Okomanyuk's English-language illustrated article is devoted to cybervetting, in fact, the use of online information to assess the suitability of a person or organization for a certain role. In cybervetting, a searcher gathers targeted information about a candidate from online sources to evaluate his past behavior, predict future behavior, or solve a combination of these.
