On 06th March 2012, Bob Sullivan from the Red Tape Chronicles of MSNBC.com reported some prospective employers “are demanding full access from job applicants and student athletes.” Report further says “job seekers have been asked during interviews to log into their accounts and let an interviewer watch while the potential employee clicks through wall posts, photos and anything else that might be found behind the privacy wall.”
Shocked are you? Well in 2011 there were reports the candidates were asked to surrender their user names and passwords until a formal complaint stopped the practice. Now as much as we agree Facebook is our private domain, it is likely many of us will share the logins when we ‘want’ the job. But should we have to? Is it even legal to ask for our private logins for these social networks that have nothing to do with our job prospects? The law says NO!
