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

a company.

However

, others take the opposing view. I believe revealing personal details anywhere in the

application is not beneficial. On the one hand, some consider that providing personal

information

to employers is advantageous. Being aware of

job

applicants' interests might help the companies to offer incentives that suit the interests of their probable future staff. As an example, offering free club memberships to staff is common and these discounts can be done based on employees' areas of interest.

Moreover

, when an employer becomes aware of a person's marital status, can sometimes decide better to choose

vacancy. As an example, a married employee is not suitable for a position that requires frequent travelling around the cities

as a result

of their marital commitments.

On the other hand

, many believe that personal

information

does not play an important role in hiring a person and I agree with them. Some

information

might leave a negative impression. Parents in single-parent families are a good example. The employer might presume that these interviewees have a number of duties which they cannot do or concentrate on their organizational duties properly. Definitely,

might reduce the chance of a candidate's success in the interviewing meeting.

Furthermore

, revealing personal

information

is considered an invasion of privacy and

applicants might feel that their function in the interview can be affected by their situation. All in all, having considered a range of arguments, I believe that collecting personal

information

by employers is not helpful and interviewers must put their energy into becoming aware of the applicant's abilities for doing the
