If a recruiter asks, why not just hide/deactivate your FB page until you are hired and tell him/her you don't have one.
How will they know if it's hidden/deactivated?
There is no expectation of privacy for anything online. Especially social media stuff.
There are data aggregators like Experian or equifax which can spot all these accounts. And everything you ever post is archived. I mean everything.
I don’t do a lot of social media stuff. Who cares what I ate? Or what I got my cat for Christmas???
In general, it’s a good idea to avoid anything controversial on FB. You are just gonna **** off a bunch of your friends with stupid stuff you never would discuss in person. What’s the point?
