Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to examine what questions the potential employer may and may not ask in an interview.

Design/methodology/approach

Contrasts the behavior of Sir Alan Sugar, on the television program The Apprentice, with how interviewers should behave in more “normal” circumstances. Highlights the value of training to help to ensure that this happens.

Findings

Reveals that online training can help to keep employees up to date with the latest changes in the law. People can access just‐in‐time learning in their own way, and concentrate on the topics of most interest or value to them. They can find out answers discreetly, without losing face in front of their peers in a classroom.

Practical implications

Underlines that legal provisions often reinforce what organizations should be doing anyway, in the interests of good HR practice.

Originality/value

Provides clarity on an often‐misunderstood area of the law.
