Questions about maternity or personal life are still part of the reality for many women in job interviews in Brazil. These questions, according to specialist Polyana Macedo, executive RPO manager at ManpowerGroup Brasil, can provide valuable information about the company's culture and how the organization addresses topics such as diversity and professional development.
Polyana Macedo highlights that the interview is a two-way street: while the candidate is being evaluated, she also has the opportunity to observe the company. When they ask whether the woman plans to have children or how to balance motherhood and work, the organization ends up transmitting important information about how it treats its employees.
The specialist indicates that candidates should pay attention to these signals during the selection process to better interpret the organizational culture and the company's values. These questions can reveal how the company really treats gender issues and equal opportunities.
