<p>I guess you have to consider how badly you want the job as opposed to how upset and wrong you feel that the request to look at the Facebook is. It took a long time for certain questions to actually become against the law to ask and without a doubt it will eventually be illegal for interviewers to ask about a Facebook.</p>
<p>It is really strange though that a potential employer would even ask to look, especially to ask to have the user name and log in. For most people a social media site of any kind is just there to keep in touch and have fun with. They make it easy to share photos with family/friends and to let people know about upcoming get-together’s.</p>
<p>There are certain jobs that could be directly affected by Facebook and other social media site standing. If that is the case then looking at the site of an applicant would make sense. If the job is involving social media campaigns. </p>
<p>Maybe the best bet for a job applicant would be to get rid of the college days social media and either start something up that is pretty benign or don’t even have one at all. Telling an interviewer that you don’t have one of these sites, when you actually do is a bad idea. it is an easy thing to discover as well.</p>
