Job seekers are also asked their views on the events of Jan. 6, 2021.
The article from Fortune discusses how former President Donald Trump has been using a unique litmus test for potential job candidates by asking them who won the 2020 presidential election. This question serves as a way for Trump to gauge the loyalty and alignment of candidates with his views, particularly his unfounded claims of election fraud.
