15、 来问你的。人力资源律师查尔斯 A 库鲁格表示，像应聘者的一些个人信息 是受到保护的，雇主不得开口询问。“具体有以下几点：关于种族，性别，国籍，宗教，军衔和年龄( 如应聘者年龄达四十及以上 ) 的信息。通常来说，雇主提这些问题的目的是想给应聘者贴上标签。而雇主通过提问刺探应聘者隐私往往会给后者带来很大压力，很明显，他们是有意为之，而这些问题又基本和未来的工作无关。”譬如，“你的简历上写着你曾在布鲁克费尔德市 (Brookfield) 住 过一段时间，那儿有很多有名的乡村俱乐部和老年俱乐部吧你加入过什么俱乐部吗 ? ”，又或者“你每天上下班采用哪种交通方式? ”。前一个问题涉及你的经济状况，性别

16、，种族，宗教信仰和年龄等方面的隐私，通过后一个问题则能够得知你的经济状况和种族信息。根据法律规定，面试时，雇主的提问不得涉及以下五个方面。你上班时，谁在家中照顾孩子?斯皮格律师事务所(Spiggle Law Firm)的汤姆斯皮格(TomSpiggle) 律师指出，即使在面试中，雇主和你聊到了孩子的话题，他们也没有必要详细了解你家谁负责带孩子。相关法律规定，雇主不得对应聘者的性别加以歧视，他解释道：“这样的歧视有很多种，比如认为有孩子的应聘者在工作时容易分心。”“但是，如果具体工作需要加班，而应聘者却主动提出我孩子还小，我四点半就要回家带孩子，企业能够考虑不录取该名应聘者”。斯皮格律师补充道，

18、布表示无论应聘者是服役人员还是正在军队服役，都应受到平等对待，雇主不可所以不予以录用。“实际上，雇主不可开口询问 应聘者在服役期间的表现，并以此为工作水平的评判标准。”你今后是否打算要孩子?雇主不能因为应聘者已生子或是将来有孩子的打算而怀疑他们是否会尽心工作。“如果雇主想了解应聘者能否吃苦耐劳，那他们应该这样问，你一天能工作几个小时? 或者如果你的出行计划和工作相冲突，你能否做到将工作发在首位? ”施瓦茨和佩里律师事务所(Schwartz & Perry)的达维达 S 佩里律师(Davida S.
