I have literally been asked for Whatsapp and Facebook details on my job applications.

My mother's friend was told to give up her Facebook password for a job at the police station. She accepted the terms, for some reason. This was for an administrative-type job at a police station that did not involve police work or any kind.

So, yeah, it absolutely does happen and to different (sometimes frightening) degrees.
