It's anecdotal, but back when I was on Reddit, I saw someone say that a prospective employer actually required your full credentials so that they could check your private information as well.

That not only sounds illegal and shady, it would be the dumbest thing you could do.

Now somebody else has your account, uploads some Epstein material for shits and giggles and you can go to jail

That is an immediate "Nope the fuck out of there, you do NOT want to work in het place"

Small company overreach.

They probably also ask you a bunch of illegal questions in the screening

Strongly agreed!

Doesn't sound illegal at all. Immoral sure. But there's no way governments have created a law to make asking for social logins illegal

Probrally a scammer
