I know of founders who would need to think carefully about even interviewing someone with Facebook on their resume. And I totally get these concerns given the attitude Facebook has towards the privacy of users.
- medecau 7y ago> think carefully about even interviewing someone with Facebook on their resume Good, engineers need to be accountable for their complicity.

- holstvoogd 7y agoWell, engineers can have a lot of ethical responsibility. A resume that show you have no scruples doing unethical things is a fine way to gauge if someone is a suitable match. Not much different then background checks for working in schools or what ever.
- tjpnz 7y agoIf a founder or person in charge of hiring views a candidate as a threat to either the business or their customers then they have every right to pass on that candidate.

- anonymousab 7y agoWhich is something people do. For example, you wouldn't hire someone who takes their politics to just-under-violent extremist levels, as it would be bad PR.
