Why Would A Potential Employer Ask This Question? (read) by nenergy(m): 12:54pm On Jul 08, 2014
I was filing out an online recruitment form for a position with a multi-mational company. The last and obviously important question on the form was;
Have you or your spouse or business partner(s) ever been employed by any Government?
Question is; why would they ask that?

They probably want to know your exposure to corruption. Government officials are arguably the most corrupted.
