What? "Answer this question or I'm not hiring you." (as long as the question is not one of a lawfully prohibited class of questions) is not coercion it's negotiation. By your reasoning if I went into an interview and flat refused to answer any question they would, what, be forced to hire me? This whole conceptualization is broken.
- WalterBright 5y agoAnytime the other party says "or else" it's just a negotiating tactic to see if you're gonna fold. > be forced to hire me? Forced? Of course not. They're not holding a gun on you, and you're not holding a gun on them.
- infogulch 5y agoYes, and that's why your previous comment made no sense... > you are compelled to answer any question an employer asks Nobody is "compelling" anyone in this situation.
