CaliforniaCityNews.org has a post about an over-the-top hiring requirement in Bozeman:
If you're planning to apply for a job with the city of Bozeman, prepare to clean up your Facebook page.
As part of routine background checks, the city asks job applicants to provide their usernames and passwords for their social-networking sites. And it has been doing it for years, city officials said.
I really could understand if the requirement was to disclose all of your social networking sites so they could be reviewed, but demanding your usernames and passwords? That simply goes too far.
Update: My friend KL Tweets: The best response on Fark to that story: tell 'em it violates the Terms Of Service for the websites and you obey rules
Looks like they backed off the requirement.
