    What can I ask in an interview?
    Today was my first time conductiong interviews. I undestand that I cannot ask about race, religion, age, etc. However, after we were done discussing the position, we chatted a little bit. She mentioned her daughter, so I asked how old her daughter is. Is it OK to ask that question?

    I never did - I never opened a door to what might at some point be discrimination. Sometimes it's hard not to open that door; sometimes I thought people wanted to provide info.
