14 Questions to avoid What is your place of birth/ethnicity/religion?
Are you planning on having children? What age are you planning to retire? How many sick days did you take last year? How much do you weigh?

15 Asking about health conditions
You can only ask about health or disability if: there are necessary requirements of the job that can’t be met with reasonable adjustments You’re finding out if someone needs help to take part in a selection test or interview you’re using a ‘positive reaction’ to recruit a disabled person

Are they still interested Make an offer – make it conditional Formal letter sent to successful candidate
