Explain why or why not? 3 pros or 3 cons.

Please do your own homework.

Pro: If my potential employee were publicly posting pictures of being a drunkard and a druggie, I probably wouldn't want to hire that person, either.

Pro: I can verify what you say about you with the click of a mouse button.

Pro: I have a stack of 500 potential employees; I need to find a reason *not* to hire you. Oh -- facebook; hm... that gives me a lot of reasons.

Con: I have a right to a private life away from my employer, even if I am an idiot. I clock out from work; that's when my relationship with my employer ends.

Con: I can be a psychopath/sociopath and create a false personality of myself.

Con: Someone can steal my identity or create a false identity of me.
