Answer to Question 1

Answer: The situation with recommendations in a social networking environment is more complicated than with a traditional recommendation because the recommendations become part of your online profile. Fortunately, social networks provide more flexibility when it comes to responding to recommendation requests. You can simply ignore or delete the requests, or you can (as many people do) make it a personal policy to ignore requests from networkers they don't know. Another option is to refrain from making recommendations at all, and just letting people know this when they ask.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Rejecting job applicants requires choosing your approach carefullyexperts disagree on how much information to include in a rejection message, but the safest strategy is to avoid any explanations for the company's decision and to avoid making or implying any promises of future consideration. When writing a rejection message, be sure to personalize it by using the recipient's name, and then open with a courteous expression of appreciation for being considered. Convey the bad news politely and concisely, and avoid explaining why the applicant was rejected or why other applicants were chosen instead. Don't state or imply that the application will be reviewed later, and close with positive wishes for the applicant's career success.
