Personal information at job interview Some would argue that applicants for a job should reveal personal information at the interview, while others think that that it is inappropriate. While awareness about a job seeker’s private life could help to find the most suitable team member, I believe that this kind of information is too intimate. On the one hand, personal life outside of working place define personality of applicants and a recruiter can find the best candidate to the position. That is to say that the lifestyle allows to make a conclusion about the way the person interact with others and psychological image of the future worker. For example, the Scientist magazine has published a research that show that individual who has a permanent partner or spouse is more likely to show responsibility and works at the same place for many years. However, I believe that disclosure private information is ethically wrong because person have the right to spend his life outside of an office the way he or she like. On the other hand, pursuits and family situation are confidential information that should not be asked on a job interview. This is because company should be interested in a suitable performer for the current position and useful job experience. For example, a recent research shows that even having a wild hobby or collapse of marriage, most adult people can divide his personal matters and working life. I believe that this school of thought is preferable because people should not account for their family and interests and be afraid that it will influence on their work. In conclusion, although information about hobbies and marriage could be useful for hiring the most suitable member of working team, asking personal information should not be permitted because the only thing that should have valuable for the company that is in search of a new worker is his or her professional skills, relevant education and working experience.
