    This is probably a stupid question, and I think I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask just to make sure.

    If you've got your Facebook profile set to private, where only your friends can see it, and you set it so that you don't turn up in searches for your name, is there any way a potential employer can see it?

    Just take the photo of you shacking up with the goat down, and you'll be fine. Or at least remove the tag.

    If you have your profile set to not turn up in searches, no one can see you.

    This is my understanding, too. My wife and I set up a Facebook page for our daughter and added ONLY my and my wife's parents and a selected few close friends.

    When my wife conducted a trial search for our daughter, she couldn't be found.
