When applying for any job or scholarship or internships, you must keep in mind that the decision-making already begins before you even walk through the door. Employers do look at applications and resumes, but the biggest factor of the decision-making process is googling the applicant. Through googling the person's name, all of their online activity becomes the deciding factor.
If everything is professional and positive it can factor in as a very good possibility for hire. However, the opposite could also occur if you have lots of negative feedback your application can be immediately denied. Even the people you associate with and their profile activities could apply to the decision because it could color you in a different way. Just make sure that before applying for anything your online presence is professional and positive, it matters.
