Job application seeks TMI
The city of Bozeman, Mont. wants to know a lot about its job applicants, including their Internet passwords, according to this AP story.
Bozeman officials have been hammered with e-mails and phone calls ever since KBZK-TV of Bozeman reported the policy on Wednesday, including an excerpt from the city application form that states “Please list any and all current personal or business Web sites, web pages or memberships on any Internet-based chat rooms, social clubs or forums, to include, but not limited to: Facebook, Google, Yahoo, YouTube.com, MySpace, etc.”
The application then asks for the passwords for those sites. The city attorney said the application may be altered, but doesn’t completely back off the policy.
