What types of questions are legal and illegal for an employer to ask when interviewing a candidate?
A. If a candidate is applying for a job, an employer cannot ask if he or she is disabled or ask about the nature or severity of any disability. An employer can, however, ask if a candidate can perform the duties of the job with or without reasonable accommodation. An employer can also ask a candidate to describe or to demonstrate how, with or without reasonable accommodation, he or she will perform the duties of the job.
