| Nov 8, 2017 at 18:04 | comment | added | Fuller | @Azor-Ahai At least in one instance, no. But this question was not only about a single case. I have encountered this more than once with UK job calls, so I assumed that it was non uncommon practice there. | |

| Nov 8, 2017 at 15:31 | comment | added | Konrad Rudolph | “The application system requires me to fill out these fields” — that part alone is legally questionable, to be honest. You’re not required to reveal your current salary in the UK, and having this as a required field could be seen an invalid requirement. | |
