Is it sexist for women to be asked about marriage and childbearing in the interview?

Personally, I think it is more or less sexist. However, if this question will not affect your interview results if other conditions are suitable after the answer, we can also understand that this question does not represent gender discrimination, but is purely a question of understanding personal situation and values during the interview.

But in real life, women will encounter such a situation in the interview. During the interview, I will ask about the status of marriage and childbirth, and even ask women to make relevant commitments, especially explaining that this is a job need. This is direct gender discrimination.

We all know that the labor contract law stipulates that employers have the right to know the basic situation of workers. However, it is suspected of gender discrimination to influence whether to hire workers based on whether to have children or two children.

Most women will face the problem of getting married and having children, and the process of having children is a long and complicated process. It takes more than 1 year to enter the working state from pregnancy to giving birth to a child and then returning to the workplace completely, even before two years. During this period, there are many variables. For enterprises, they are worried about stability and low human efficiency. Because they all gave up their jobs after they got married and had children, maternity leave was also delayed for a long time. For women, it is possible that after returning from maternity leave, the original position will be replaced and the original competitors will be better.

Then, in which industries will this "strange" phenomenon be much less, my personal experience is that there will be much less gender discrimination in the Internet industry, which may be the reason why the rapid output of results is more important in the fast-paced working atmosphere of this industry. Fundamentally speaking, it is difficult to measure the quality of the results by gender. The only way to avoid sexism is to make yourself stronger and more valuable.

In the torrent of competition, there are only a few people who can be recognized by most people for their abilities and values, so how to solve this problem for most people who are not so good! We found two trends, one is to get married and have children as soon as possible, and then devote ourselves to work. Such people generally need financial support from their families; Either you don't choose to get married and have children when your career rises, but this may lead to missing the best reproductive period because of your age.

Therefore, in order to solve this problem better, we still need the society to provide better and more maternity protection, so that companies and employees have a certain sense of security. At the same time, from the perspective of the company's long-term development, I personally think that enterprises should also take into account employees' desire for more "humanity" and "respect" for the company when putting forward "wolf" requirements for employees, and don't blame candidates with the same gender.
