Job Interview - Specific Questions for Personal People

In the Job Interview, interviewer give you Job Specific Questions, Minimum height and weight requirements are unlawful if they screen out a disproportionate number of women or minorities. Unless the employer can show that a height or weight requirement is essential for job performance, such inquiries should be avoided.

Example of Illegal Questions
How tall are you?
How much do you weigh?
(Questions about height and weight are always illegal unless
it can be proven that there are minimum requirements to do the job.)

Possible Legal Alternatives
Are you able to lift a 50-pound weight and carry it 100 yards, as that is part of the job?
