ADA: Interviews and Applications (Infographic)
Are you…?
Recruiting and hiring ‘the best of the best’ requires asking the right questions…and avoiding the wrong ones. When it comes to being ADA compliant, remember:
- DO NOT inquire about a prospective employee’s disability on application forms or during interviews.
- DO ask about the applicant’s ability to perform the job and attend work regularly.
Right side of the law
Do not fight the Department of Justice on the ADA. Not with the fine for the first violation under title III costing $75,000 and the maximum fine for a subsequent violation at $150,000.
If you are charged with the recruitment of your dealership’s or financial institution’s workforce then it’s important to know what specifically you can ask in both the interview and on the application and what questions to avoid altogether.
