Well, I wouldn't have hired those people regardless of their Facebook postings. Facebook just mirrors what I see in reality. If someone is so short sighted that they post things that will keep them from being hired, they are likely engaging in a number of behaviors which are not helpful to them getting hired.



Equally, I post many things on facebook that I would not expect an employer to like - but I restrict their viewing to people I directly know.

The entire scenario of a highly savvy person having a publicly viewable page that is then used against her is slightly absurd
