Interview Questions You Should Never Answer

Most of the questions asked in an interview are off-limits. Being a candidate, it is not essential to get ready for the questions employers tend to ask you, but also to be prepared in order to shirk the questions that do not deserve an answer.

1. How old are you?

You're not required to justify any questions related to your age except than just determining that you are above 18 years. There's also no need to provide a photo ID during the interview session. In case, if this question is posed then you can simply state that you're afraid of identity theft and would not opt to hand over the concerned document until it's firmed that you will be joining the team or not.

2. What's your nationality?

Same goes with this particular question, you need not answer the questions posed over your nationality, citizenship status or as in for how long you have been residing in the US or any other country. Just illustrate that you're officially capable to work in the country.

3. Are you married? Do you have any children?

Interviewers have the authority to ask you whether you have made use of alternate name professionally or while your academics, but they are not authorized to ask you about your marital status, children or in case you decide to have a family in the foreseeable future. In such circumstances, readdress the question back to the interviewer.

4. Do you have any spiritual beliefs?

Questions related to religious ideas are beyond limits while an interview, getting your religious fundaments and what religious holidays you noticed. If the interviewer pose this question, then try to find out what they are alarmed with and then tackle those concerns.

5. How long would your commute be to this office?

The recruiter should not ask you questions about the residence you stay from the office , as in how far it is, he can try to find out whether you can start the work at a certain hour or displace from the position. If your planning to relocate due to the post, then straight-away mention the same in your professional summary on your resume as well as online profiles that you desire and able to transfer ASAP.
