All
though job interviews are taken by smart people who have a list of
questions to be asked or a test already in place before the interview
takes place a good idea is to be aware of certain questions are a
strict no as far as job interviews go due to reasons like them
falling under the category of being unlawful. Particularly
international laws are very stringent compared to India and if you
are hiring form the east or while in east, you need to be vary of
them because they could land you into a soupy lawsuits that could
blow a very big hole into your pocket or even get you behind the
bars.
Some
of the unlawful questions on the international circuit include the
following. Some of them have been asked by many recruiters in their
interviews in India. Check the list out -
-
Are you married
-
How old are you
-
Are you gay
-
Do you plan to have children
-
When did you complete your graduation
-
Which country do you belong to
-
Do you know English. Is it your first Language
-
What is your birth place
-
What is your height
-
Do you have any kind of disabilities
Though,
there are many more questions that belong to the list, the
aforementioned list is just few of them which are still commonly
asked in interviews even though they shouldn’t be. Having said
that, for people living in India the laws aren’t that stringent and
the recruiters could easily do away with asking these questions.
Still, ideally it would be good to know about the questions that are
illegal in interviews and abide to not asking them as well to set
good recruitment standards for your firm or organization.
