Hello,
During a recent job interview i was asked a question that wasn't related to the position. The question was used to disqualify me for the position. How do I file a protest internally with the agency and OPM. Thanks |

How do you know the question was used to disqualify you for the position? Good luck proving that.
I'd just move on. What's the end game here? |

OP here, out of scope of the job duties. Have you managed a billion dollar company...

Why wouldn’t that be relevant? And how do you know your answer disqualified you? |

NP here. This is a good question, thanks OP. If a question is wildly out of scope, can this be used to exclude candidates?
But back to the question, how do you file a protest? Are the interview questions reviewed by federal HR personnel? |

| OPM doesn’t keep a repository of approved questions. Agencies can develop interview questions provided they don’t ask questions that are prohibited by law. |

+1. OMG. You should know this, OP. |

| If it wasn't about your religion, martial status, or race or sex, they can ask what they want to. |

| If it was prohibited by law, the agency's IG with an e-mail cc'ing their general law and HR departments |

| There's a TPS form for that, I believe. Template Protest Sheet - just google it. There should be one for OPM and a different one for the Agency. Do NOT get them confused. Fill out in triplicate. |
