Me, why shouldn’t one do that? But my last resume is 10 years old, maybe I am out of touch with all the mumbo jumbo dancing you have to do, to build the “right” resume.
Well you can’t make a hiring decision on that basis in most places unless you have a reason. What constitutes “a reason” being variable. Generally if you are prohibited from making a decision on a certain factor, you may not ask about it during an interview.
Sex discrimination can be constituted by various things. For example asking about maritial status, children, plans for pregnancy, soliciting sexual favors, etc. Also in some places, if you thought someone might be trans, you could not ask them about that.
How is it relevant? Why should an employer care about your? All they should care about if you can do your job or not. It’s also illegal in many places around the world to make a decision based on someones age.
Wait who puts their birthday on a resume?

Many places now, that might be illegal to ask for, like race and sex.
Why did sex become illegal ?

Personally, I would say it shouldn’t matter.
I wouldn’t want to know the birth date of a person I was interviewing, and there’s no need for my interviewer to know mine.
It wasn’t on their résumé it was on their LinkedIn.
Although now the question becomes, why would you put your DOB on LinkedIn, which I have no idea.
I just looked at my LinkedIn and don’t see anywhere that birthday is even displayed. This is clearly fake.
who doesn’t?
I have never, ever put my birthday or age on a CV. Fuck that.
You act like we’re talking about peepee lengths. Doesn’t age seem something very relevant to consider when hiring someone?
I hardly see why it’s relevant at all, no. It’s like a fucking kids painting putting your age on there lmfao.
that comparison doesn’t make sense at all
Timmy, age 5.
