Excerpted from the France Career Guide
During the
job interview process, a candidate should not be surprised to be
asked very personal questions, which in some countries would be
considered discriminatory and illegal. For example, women are
frequently asked whether they intend to have children in the future.
Granting a woman maternity leave can be a very expensive proposition
to a company because she is allowed six weeks of maternity leave
before the birth and up to three months after the birth. Even though
the government is helping to cover her salary during this maternity
leave, the company is required to keep the position, or an
equivalent position, open to the candidate for up to two years.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
