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 these views and give own opinion.

It often happens that, personal

information

,

for instance

, favourite pastimes, marital status, etc.; is asked by the employers. It creates a debate between people whether

this

information

impacts the job perspective of the applicant or not. In my opinion, I find it pertinent to gather all

this

data about the candidates. Making the interviewee comfortable and bringing a friendly environment is one of the reasons for asking about the light topics which need not be well thought. Answering these sort of easy questions makes the

person

confident and helps to break the ice in front of the interview board. Another thing that should be noted that these answers of the applicant benefit the employer to understand the state of mind of the

person

. While managing the

office

, the employer can keep all

this

information

in mind and synchronize everything by connecting everyone in the

office

, which leads to a very healthy

office

environment.

On the contrary

, sometimes privacy can be hampered when personal

information

is spread widely.

Furthermore

, it is often heard about the bullying tendency of the colleagues which affects adversely on the

office

environment. Not all private things to be discussed in public. If asking these things makes the

person

uncomfortable or the

person

denies answering, the topics should be left aside. To summarize,

although

asking for private

information

occasionally creates a hazardous situation for the

person

.

Nonetheless

, proper coordination and utilization of the appropriate

information

may lead to a healthy relationship among the colleagues which even helps to improve the work quality of the employees.
