Question about Facebook privacy setting? - nicediwata - 11-09-2012 12:11 PM
I’m not very familiar with Facebook functions because I check my Facebook account once a month. I have read about employers checking people’s Facebook account. How can employers check your Facebook account if you set it to private? Is there anyway they can bypass that?
I set mine on private but somehow people who are not connected to my friends are still finding me and adding me as friends? How can that be?

They cannot check your actual page is it's on private, but they can still search you and add you as a friend, but, you can either block them, or you can actually have the settings as nobody but your friends can search you, and another setting so nobody can friend request you, but you'd still be able to friend request people.
