I'm not sure, if that was legal question in a job interviews; IIRC there has been a ruling by our supreme court (in the early 80s I think) regarding a case, where a woman was asked in a job interview, if she planed to get pregnant and said "no", became pregnant and was fired, because she lied in the interview. The supreme court decided, that these kind of questions are illegal for job interviews, since they had nothing to do with her qualifications for a job, just her personal. So, to my understanding such a question would fall in the same category. However, I'm pretty sure there are differences between what's legal and what's practised :( Best Regards, Alexander
