Employers sometimes ask people applying for jobs for personal information, such as their hobbies and intrests, weather they are married or single. Some people say that this information may be relevant and useful. Others disagree.

Often times job seekers are asked about personal

information

like their hobbies, interests, or marital status. Many people consider it as necessary

while

others show concerns. In my perspective, candidates must not share

such

information

until it is mandatory for the specific job roles.

Companies

around the world gather

employees

' personal

information

for a number of reasons.

First,

depending on time availability, tasks are assigned to

employees

such

as short deadline work is often assigned to those who are available for longer hours.

Next,

if a person has experience managing teams like in sports, he/she best fits in the role of management.

Then

, based on hobbies,

employees

can perform well in the workplace.

For instance

, many organisations have found that personal interests have an impact on performance.

Employees

deliver high-end results if their preferences are utilized

accordingly

.

Thus

, both

companies

and

employees

are beneficiaries of the personal data.

Conversely

, despite few benefits, access to personal

sometimes appears as a tool of discrimination. Many candidates are either dropped during interviews or consistently judged by employers even though

companies

claim equal employment opportunities for all races, religions, citizenships, and genders.

For instance

paid less than those who are from Europe. Many

companies

do not hire female staff because they can not work extensive hours , especially at night.

Hence

, the workforce is exploited across the globe once their data is accessible. In summary,

Although

personal data collected by employers could be beneficial in lots of cases, the workforce is often exploited because of it.

According to

me, it would be worthwhile if provided in selective cases.
