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 view and give your own opinion.

Nowadays

while

applying for a job in any organization, they request the required skill sets

along with

they are asking for

candidate

hobbies and other activities apart from

work

.

This

is quite a debatable topic of whether collecting the

candidate

's personal relevant information is useful or not. We will discuss

both

points and will give my own opinion.

While

knowing the personal interests of the

candidate

, the employers are able to utilise the

candidate

'scandidate's abilities effectively in their workplace.

Due to

this

,

both

employees and employers get benefits.

For instance

, In my organization, a fresher joined recently as an entry-level job,

while

during his college time, he participated in many activities like coordinating the cultures program and other kinds of college events.

This

interest opened the way for his career, as a project coordinator in our organization. Without knowing the interest and hobbies of the employees, the employer cannot use their talent.

On the other hand

, the sharing of personal information during the interview is not advisable in some instances. In some organizations,

while

knowing the married female

candidate

are not hired and they are assumed to be incapable, and not productive for

work

, as they are taking care of household

work

.

Due to

this

reason most of the female candidates who did not

work

get selected for jobs. In my opinion, sharing individual details like their interest and hobbies will helpfully for

both

employees and employers in many ways.

This

will give me more opportunities to explore

both

personally and career-wise.
