---- Legal Danger: Checking Job Applicants on Social Sites

Depending on how the information is utilized.

Personally, I feel that if the applicant is thoughtless enough to use their every-day email to set up a MySpace account or leave their account public where it can be easily accessed by potential employers then that simply shows a lack of forethought. That is why I wouldn't want that person working for me not because they are thin/fat, black/white, female/male.

Also, how can the interviewee find out that their profile was viewed and by whom? This is a silly.
