How Asking The Wrong Interview Question Can Cost Your Business Thousands - Joanne Moss of Moss HR
Episode 199
Thursday, 4 December, 2025
A single interview question could cost your business thousands… and most employers don’t even realise they’re asking it. In this week’s episode of The Engaging Marketeer, HR expert Joanne Moss explains why small, everyday mistakes in hiring and people management can lead to five-figure consequences. She talks about how one inappropriate question can trigger a discrimination claim, and why “I didn’t know” is never a defence when things go wrong. Jo also breaks down the hidden HR risks most business owners overlook, and explains the steps every employer can take to protect themselves and create a safer, fairer workplace without drowning in paperwork. If you hire people, plan to hire people or simply want to avoid expensive HR mistakes, this episode is essential viewing.
