essay, I will present both opinions as well as discuss my point of view. The advocates believe that asking interviewees personal questions like hobbies and interests, makes employers understand more the personality of the job seeker.

happens, employee satisfaction and productivity will decline. The opponents think that personal information could have an adverse effect on the hiring decision.

For instance

can be achieved by asking less personal questions like marital status and asking more about work skills and experiences. The less personal info the interviewer has, the less likely they will take a biased hiring decision and the more likely there is diversity.
