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

Nowadays, everyone is working to survive or fulfil their needs. Some people think providing personal information like their area of interest and about their family is useful for employers while applying for a

job

.

However

, others believe that personal details are not required. I partially agree with the aforementioned statements and my essay will discuss both viewpoints along with my opinion in a pragmatic approach.

To begin

with, an organization always has different types of

roles where they wanted the most suitable

employee

. At

, if a candidate mentioned their personal commitments to the company before start working it not only clear the things between a firm and an

employee

but

also

the interviewer can think whether

role or not.

For example

, some firms have a requirement where

needs to attend some kind of business meetings. If the individual has some personal life or if he/she does not like to travel

creates an issue in future. So, it's better to clear everything in an interview.

On the other hand

, someone's personal life is not linked with the organization and there is a plethora of reason behind that.

First

and foremost, having a skill set and knowledge is the most important factors which the company needs to put in the priority rather

Secondly

,

can even get a parallel growth.

For example

, 90% of the firms look for the top talented people in the market rather

comparing their personal matters. As per my opinion, passing personal information really depends on the position where someone is applying for. If a

person

is applying for some regular

job

then

I don't think it's mandatory to share your personal matters. To conclude, passing personal information is fine if someone is applying for a particular

job

where he/she does not have the time for their family.

However

, there should not be any restriction to do the same. But, firms should try to find the best suitable

person

who has the specific skills to do the

job

.
