It's coming....what is your social media worth?

     So a plumber walks in for a job interview (stay with here) sits down and hands over his resume.
The employer asks,  "Can you please supply me with your social media links?"

The plumber says, "Oh, of course, you want to see if there is anything negative on those types of sites.  Well, I don't have any, so we are all set."

The employer responds, "Thank you sir, I appreciate you coming in."

The plumber, very confused asks, "you didn't ask me about my experience, you didn't even look at my resume?  I don't understand?"

The employer simply says, "we are only hiring plumbers with the top 10 social media following."

    So what does this have to do with modeling?  Well, it starting here...starting.  Why pay social media specialist when you can hire people who have a following?  (Oh yeah, Mr Plumber...we would like you to take pictures of the work you do and we are only paying you a flat rate.  Yes, I know that is more work....)
