Cisco Survey Reveals Many Young Job Seekers Value Social Media Over Money [INFOGRAPHIC]

Shakespeare once wrote, “All that glitters is not gold,” and when it comes to young job seekers, he was spot-on.

Cisco’s recent survey of 2,800 college students and recently employed graduates found that while a competitive salary is important, many respondents said a company’s social media policy matters even more. In fact, 56 percent overall said they wouldn’t work for a company that bans social media usage.

What’s more, a third of those surveyed “consider the internet to be as important as air, water, food, and shelter,” and 60 percent of students “think they have a right to work remotely with a flexible schedule.”

Take a look at the infographic below for more highlights of the survey findings.
