- al_borland 1y agoI assume any similar question that could lead someone to be critical of North Korea would do.

- joshdavham 1y ago> I'd probably be crucified by HR for saying fat at work though. Really? What kind of company would make a big deal out of that?
- libraryatnight 1y agosmells like 'can't say anything anymore' coded whining.
- Mistletoe 1y agoNo I really would be uncomfortable at work asking that question to an interviewee.
- marcuskane2 1y agoAlmost any of them? Asking a candidate about how fat someone is definitely does sound like something that would get an interviewer in trouble. Many people are deeply insecure about their weight, many women feel very uncomfortable when men make any comment about anyone's weight, body or appearance. The candidate might post on Glassdoor or LinkedIn about the hostile (and possibly sexist or "bro-y" or noninclusive or discriminatory) environment. Even aside from the HR type concerns, it could legitimately negatively impact the candidate's performance. Imagine an overweight applicant being asked that question, feeling flustered and embarrassed while answering "... about as fat as me?" and then trying to reverse a linked list or whatever as their next question.

- koliber 1y agoAsk the suspicious candidates what they think of the murderous North Korean regime. Avoids body shaming.
