Employers sometimes ask people applying for jobs for personal information, such as their hobbies and intrests, and whether they are married or single. Some people say that this infomation may be relevant and useful. Others disagree. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

To get an in-depth idea about the employee, some companies ask for some personal data during the application process. Though many people disagree with the system, I strongly support the idea of getting

this

less relevant but useful information but useful clue from the applicants while they apply.

Firstly

, data like hobbies, leisure time activities, and interests reflect a person's inner side. These activities shape an individual's personality as these are the things one loves to do when he/she is free.

For example

, a guy who loves a reading book, story writing, or filmmaking is certainly more creative while a traveller becomes more openminded compared to those who don't love outing in their free time.

Secondly

, word related to the family-like marital status not only often helps the employer identifying the job seeker's eagerness to get the job but

also

gives the idea of his/her occupied time after office hour. A married person certainly seeks job more aggressively than a single while unmarried persons are not as quite occupied as a person who lives with his/her wife and children.

On the other hand

, the above-mentioned logic might not be true for everyone. A book reader may not always creative and a frequent traveller can be narrow-minded as well. According to my point of view, as for most of the cases,

this

information can be extremely useful, the organizations should ask the applicant to give their personal info while they apply.
