Writing question

If an applicant is confronted with an unlawful question, the Yale University Office of Career Strategy’s web article offers two simple suggestions. One option is to “Side-step it. You could discretely refuse to answer the question but address the concerns that they raise.”. And the web article provides another option, “Question the relevance. You can ask your interviewer how the question relates to the position you’re interviewing for. This may alert them to the inappropriate nature of their question.” However, if an applicant chooses to answer a perceived unlawful question, “answer all of the interviewer’s questions honestly”. (Beebe & Mottet, 2013, p.167) When answering any question applicants should remain truthful, avoid any misrepresentations, and steer clear of any manipulation.
