I recently went on a job interview where I was asked by four people interviewing me about my house. They discussed at length the kitchen and living areas and asked me questions about it! It was the weirdest thing. It made me horribly uncomfortable since I was interviewing for an IT job. They also began to discuss the price of my house. TOTALLY BIZARRE! I understand people are curious and go online and gawk BUT at least some people to have enough class as to not openly question me about it! Would love to have online listings removed!

ITA. However, as an employer, you should understand that your employer deserves to know how you afford your lifestyle, and if you are living beyond your means. I am not saying it is right or wrong, but it does add up.

That is irrelevant in a job interview, and potentially illegal. I would walk right out of the room if those types of questions were asked. An interview is intended to find out if you can do the job, what you can bring to the table to do the job, and how you would be a good fit for the company. Where one lives, or how one can afford it, is not an employer's business.

An employer's business is anything they want to know that they aren't prohibited from asking about by law. The price/location/etc. of your house is fair game.

Let me enlighten you on something. A professional can put together a complete layout of your house in minutes by looking at the pictures (of course, provided they show enough information, which they do most of the time). Then, another professional can rob your house also within minutes, before your stupid little security system can do any good whatsoever. That's why people don't want the WHOLE WORLD to know the layout of their house. But continue drinking your reactive Kool-Aid instead of being proactive. Ostriches like you deserve whatever may happen as a result of your worthless ignorance.

I'd like to know this too. What's the big deal?

NP. Security is certainly an issue but also privacy. It's your home.

OP, try contacting your broker directly to ask for their removal if the agent is unresponsive.
