Discussion on: What is the worst question you have ever been asked in a job interview?

This happened on the 3rd world around one of my lowest points. I was looking for a job as a developer and I applied to a local pharmaceutical company.

Not only did they asked you to fill in your resume again on a form after they ask you to bring a printed copy of your resume, but the rest of the form where questions that got too personal, things like:

Do you have a car? (year/make/model/color)
Are you married?
Does your partner owns a car? (year/make/model/color)

I got up without filling in half the form and I gave it back to the secretary and told her this was not worth the $500/month they offered for the job.

Seems like they heard that interview must be held, but no one did a due diligence of investigating what questions need to be asked.

It was a terrible organization, I honestly feel like I dodged a bullet there 😅
