Add your facebook and twitter addresses to your resume maybe
Change ur name on twitter
Changing her name does nothing if they google her name. She's going to have to explain it to them and or put her actual twitter on her resume.
I would shy away from posting my twitter and Facebook information on a resume. Personally, I believe it looks unprofessional.
#43 if OP doesn't put it on the resume, then they will find the other account and they won't hire.
Firstly, good job googling yourself and finding the issue before you went to the interview. You weren't cought by surprise. Flat out tell them. Make. Sure you're the one to bring it up. If they do, all is lost. Everything after that point is an excuse.
Any employer that's dumb enough to think there's only one person in the world with your name is an employer you don't want to work for anyway.

Show it anywayReally, #69? Because some people's phones put "get" instead of "her." See how 'g' is close to 'h' and 't' is close to 'r'? That's really not something that is hard to figure out. And by the way, people post "it's trying to communicate" all the time when someone makes a mistake. If you're going to keep repeating the phrase, please save it for comments that actually deserve it.
Yes 92, it was hard. I'm glad that you're so smart but that did not occur to me, even a little bit.
#2 unless you have a name along the lines of "Shanquadong denaqaqqq".
I'm the only person who shows up if I Google myself. My Facebook doesn't show up ( I use another name there, and employers don't need to see it! ), and my Twitter doesn't either ( not that I tweet anyway ). There's just a bunch of those stupid profile places that somehow get your city of residence and age, and then they want you to pay a bunch of money to get rid of it from their site. Some of those don't even have the right age, but whatever. I'm fairly certain that I'm the -only- person in the U.S. with my name, even discounting my middle name. It's entirely possible for someone to have a normal name and be the only one.
Grammar nazis... Grammar nazis everywhere...

Show it anywayHow do you blackmail someone who so happily flaunts their vices and shortcomings to the world?
That wouldn't help the situation at all.
Well, you could threaten to tell people she is secretly a good person, pays taxes, and keeps away from drugs. That would do damage to her rep.
Get her right in the street cred.
As long as you don't look like her or have the same email you'll be fine.
Or even the same age I'm sure OP will be fine
"...with my name and AGE..."
unless you look exactly like her i'm sure you'll be fine
Considering that most potential employers look a bit further than a name, I'd think you are fine. Otherwise, it would suck for all the John Smiths out there.
keep tweeting about boring work related stuff on your profile till all her waster friends abandon her
it could be a 2 way case of mistaken identities.. dont read into it so much
If OP keeps tweeting about "boring work" wouldn't potential employers see that as a negative, that it's tedious and OP is only feigning interest? Isn't that counterproductive to what OP actually wants to achieve?
Ah the worst kind of identity theft. Well, not really but still sorta unfortunate. Maybe incorporate your middle name into your social network and resume.

Show it anyway# 8 actually brought up a good point and possible solution to OP's problem. # 98, are you on something? Go away.
Not everybody has a middle name though

I'm sure you could explain the situation to employers
