Employee privacy rights, an applicant’s criminal background, pay equity, and anti-discrimination laws are all topics that implicate legal principals an employer and an applicant must consider during the hiring process. What can the employer ask? What can the employer not ask? How should the employee answer? Join us online for a discussion of best practices for minimizing legal risk and safeguarding legal rights during an interview; what questions can, cannot, or should not be asked at the interview stage; what employees should do if asked such questions; and how questions and answers can be tailored to make the interview process effective, successful, and legal.
