[quote=Anonymous]Unless they did something outright illegal, which it seems hard for you to know, I would not let this influence my decision at all. People’s personal views and politics should not be a factor in the workplace unless you work for a political campaign or cause. So if you’re hiring for ACLU or Democracy Forward, maybe it’s relevant, although they might bring an understanding of process that benefit your org. Otherwise, just assess them as a candidate without filtering it through your personal views and biases. I work for an agency that has always been nonpartisan yet it amazes me how people interpret what we do as partisan depending on their own views. If we issue a report they don’t like, we are pilloried on the left or right depending on the viewer. When really the data is the data. So I would not presume to know from a resume - unless it said “joyfully locked kids in cages on the daily” - just how political someone’s job duties were or why they did them. [/quote]
