Social Media & Hiring Posts Published on New Iowa Employer Law Blog

The Dickinson, Mackaman, Tyler, & Hagen employment and labor law practice group recently launched a new law blog, Iowa Employer Law Blog (iowaemployerlaw.com). The new blog provides general information and insight on legal developments of interest to Iowa employers and other employment law attorneys.

I recently blogged about social media and the hiring process on the Iowa Employer Law Blog. The first post, Social Media and the Hiring Process, Part I:  Benefits & Risks, was published on April 15.  Social Media and the Hiring Process, Part II:  Policy Making was published on April 21.

The Dickinson employment and labor law practice group is one of Iowa's largest and most acclaimed, with nine attorneys, five of whom practice primarily in employment law. The group is also one of only three such practice groups in Iowa to earn a "Band 1" ranking in the Labor and Employment area in the most recent edition of Chambers USA:  America's Leading Lawyers for Business. 

Just in case you haven't noticed via other linking on my blog, one of those Dickinson attorneys who practices primarily in employment law with the firm is yours truly.  (Note that this may be the kind of "material connection" that should be disclosed pursuant to the FTC endorsement guidelines I discussed on May 3, 2010, Potential Employer Liability for Employee Endorsements Under FTC Guidelines.)
