Online Reputation Assignment


Dear Kevin,

I am doing the online search you asked me to do on Jakob Asplund, to find some information on whether he would be a good employee or not.

I am friends with Asplund on Facebook, so I looked over some of the comments he has made on people’s pages and comments people have left on his page, these comments were appropriate and similar to many men his age. Asplund’s Facebook says his hometown is Stockholm, Sweden, but he currently lives in Logan, Utah. From looking over Asplund’s photos, I learned that he travels all over the world to play tennis for Utah State University, the other photos look as if he parties on the weekend. Asplund has his birth date posted on his page, which says he will turn 23 on May 9.

When I searched Asplund on Google, a player bio for the Utah State Tennis team came up. I also found many articles that told about the tennis matches he won and lost. There were many posts in google on Asplund. Google also took me to a Utah State website where some posters of Asplund were for sale.

There were no videos on Asplund posted on Youtube associated with his name.

On Asplund’s blog, he has a quite a few press releases, photoshop assignments, and other posts that are based on public relations. On his blog he wrote that he is studying public relations and marketing, and when he is finished he will go back to Sweden to study international marketing at Stockholm University. He also posted his favorite books, movies, and music on his blog. All of the work posted on his blog is very good!

Asplund looks like he would be a very good employee if you were to hire him.

Sincerely,

Stephanie Blatchford
