If people willingly turn over their username/password, it’s their own fault. I wouldn’t and I’m glad this guy didn’t. A more reasonable alternative would be to have them on your friends list so that they can see your profile, rather than giving them your username/password. I would never let anyone have that information.

Exactly.

We came to that almost inevitable conclusion, independently, at almost the same time.

It would also be a good, sensible thing to offer the employer. Politely offer to “friend” their own facebook.

They’ll probably refuse, but it’s a sensible position to take. Which in itself could be a good quality to a prospective employer.

Handing over a password, any password, to anyone, ever - shows a number of things to a potential employer.

None of them, good.
