I've read a lot about MySpace and Facebook profiles hurting one's chances at getting a job, but I've often wondered if it can help them.
If someone were to create a MySpace profile that had a professional layout that was serious in nature, I suspect it could ultimately serve as a virtual extension of one's resume, with the key difference being that it would present the canidate in a positive light instead of a negative one.
The fact that human resources and recruiters do scour MySpace and other social sites seems like it would be a worthwhile task in increasing one's value to a company.
