Every job that you have gotten has needed ID for background checks. I've never been asked for ID, age, or gender during the interview process. Nor would I give that information freely.
I recently filled an online application that asked for SSN and I dropped it right there. You only need my SSN for employer taxes, no way is that part of any job interview.

- forgotmypw17 6y agoThis is public knowledge, and the prefixes are even used for identity verification at banks. If you got your SSN at an age other than ~0, you may get flagged as a mis-match when e.g. applying for a new bank account, and it will require a human override to get past.
