| is it normal for employers to ask about my height and weight? could it hurt my chances to ignore such ridiculous questions on the application? i am a bit on the short side, but what is this all about? |

"Employers do not want morbidly obese people."
Because they don't like the competition?

I suspect that particular application is one of those generic, one-size-fits-all (no pun intended) employment forms designed to cover a variety of occupations, including those that require wearing a uniform. Anyway, unless you're applying for a fashion model position, I'd say to skip those questions.  |
