[quote=Anonymous]I've been applying for jobs since we are all uncertain right now. Granted it's been a long time since doing this I'm shocked by some of these questions on the applications. So now I think I've seen it all. First gender, what you identify as now a huge list instead of "male" or "female" or "trans." I was asked for my sexual orientation: heterosexual, homosexual, asexual, pansexual, you get it, basically WHO do you like to have sex with. This was NOT optional. It was a drop down you could not get passed unless you answered. Why would any company need to know what your sexual preference was and furthermore why would it matter? Is this typical? Have you seen this before? I'm taking a aback because I don't know why they would need this information and I was always taught to keep your professional work separate from your private life. This steps over the line to me. It feels very inappropriate. I did not apply to the job. Anyone in HR can shed some light?[/quote]
