I applied to a job and made it past the first round. They sent

They obviously want to see what you post. A lot of companies do that now a days. That are not going to hire you if you are posting offensive things etc

It's just very bizarre to me and feels a bit unprofessional. It doesn't help that her profile seems more like someone my age who just travels the world versus someone in charge of hiring people. Her profile also doesn't mention where she's (supposedly) currently working

Don't accept. It's your privacy, they can fuck off.

But I also feel that if they're interested in seeing how I act and the things I post, not accepting the request will hurt my chances of being accepted.

I'm not concerned about my facebook profile, I don't post anything inappropriate. I'm concerned that the job is fake or a scam or something. It feels too good to be true and this weird shit is only aggravating that feeling

don't accept, it could be just some bot that adds friend requests from emails

>>18460534
Your choice then, if it's a scam, I suppose you'll notice it before it becomes too late

It's not like it's going to hurt you right? Facebook has some good privacy settings that don't even let your friends see most shit.

Have some fucking pride. If they reject you for this, you wouldn't want to work for them to begin with.

seems like a stupid strategy for them, just assuming that you'll accept a friend request from a stranger just because you figured out for yourself that the stranger supposedly is with your prospective employer.

if that's what they do, they probably get a ton of people who don't accept just because they don't know why a stranger is adding them

Pro tip, you never attach your real name to any social media account. Unless you plan to only ever post 100% unoffensive shit only your grandma would approve of on them. If you want to be a real person online, you have to have a fake name. Fake picture is usually good too, but I only had an employer find my real account once through picture and I just told them "Oh yeah, someone stole my picture and is using it on their account. I've contacted facebook about it a couple times but it's been this whole process. It's a fishing account, don't friend it."
