HR here! No interview question alone is illegal, but what they do with the information can be. It sounds like they’re trying to avoid the “illegal” questions but still extract the info they want, not realizing that it’s the outcome that matters, not the question. Probably not a place you want to work long term, but do what you gotta do.
