This technology addiction represents a major opportunity for employers looking to add to their bottom lines while recruiting top talent. For just a few simple workplace concessions (say, allowing employees to choose an iPhone over a BlackBerry, and opening up access to social networks), recruits could be more likely to accept job offers--and at a lower salary.
OK, if the company TELLS them they allow social media, I could maybe see that working in their favor.

But unless the company says so, the person being interviewed isn't going to ask. I mean get real --- How stupid would you have to be, to ask "Do you allow social media at work" during your interview. You would look like a total dipshit, focused on unimportant things, rather than what it takes to succeed on the job.
