   The absolute gall of this question. A required question, mind you.

   I will likely not be getting called in for an interview, but it was totally worth it.

     @grendel84 an employer asking this question is illegal in 17 states and 17 more localities https://www.salary.com/resources/guides/salary-history-inquiry-bans/

     not that that stops anybody

     whoops make that 22 states and 22 localities. check out this garbage website aimed at "human resources" people that lists the bans in danger-red https://www.hrdive.com/news/salary-history-ban-states-list/516662/

     @mvilain The problem is, we are in a position of strength and able to do these things. The practices should be made illegal so no one who isn't in that position can be compelled to do them. @grendel84

     @grendel84 I skip questions like that.

     Also questions asking when I graduated from college and martial status are nunya (busines).

     I won't provide references until there's a background check so managers aren't used as sales leads.

     I won't sign contracts with an arbitration clause or disparagement clause.

     We would be in a position of strength if we organized.
