Why Does A Job Applicant's Marital Status Bother Most Companies?? by Vinnie2000(op): 8:58am On Jul 27, 2025
Most Companies, when you go for a Job Interview, you get Questions like

*Why are you Still Single?
*What are you waiting for?
*Is it the Harsh Economy or What? sad

Some go a Step Further to make Bogus Promises, we will ensure you get married in 6months,
We will Foot your Marriage Expenses, if your issues are about Finances. undecided

Simple Question, WHY ARE SOME COMPANIES SO CONCERNED ABOUT WHETHER YOU ARE MARRIED OR NOT?

Company owners, Singles and Married pple, Plz Come and Educate me! sad smiley

A marriage man is seen as more responsible than an unmarried one.

This is because he has a family back home to take care of and also he will be equally be checkmated and accountable to someone,the wife.

All these put together makes him to be up and doing, although not all men do

Not all o

Some actually prefers single persons for some roles because they believe they'd have less pressure from home which makes them more focused and vibrant.

Also for the fact that they can be easily posted to almost anywhere/any state without having to worry about the wife/husband and kids

You have added salt and pepper to the story!

No standard organisation will promise to make you get married within a certain period.

Having said that there are certain roles where a married person will be considered more appropriate for some reasons.

For instance a married person who is put in position of trust for certain cash or assets of the company is less likely to consider absconding with the company's property.

Also if you are going to be the head of a department where you will be supervising staff who are married, it is more appropriate to also employ a person who is already married to fill that role especially in our clime

Los,
You guys have NOT done Job-hunting. smiley

What does it cost for a company to sponsor a Wedding? huh

Some companies can process Visa for a Staff and send him/her abroad under 24hours if they want to. sad smiley

Yes Na. Think about it.

A married man means wife and children which means expenses which means he needs the Job. And this is where you see why the companies become hostile and oftentimes even take the steps that would offend him. But it is just a test to see whether he is hooked.

And a married man must be hooked because he knows what cometh after job loss. Nairalanders have said it tirefully; no job, wife go.

So you, see companies prefer married men. Meanwhile for the female, it switches and they prefer the single ones
