Responding professionally is much more effective than telling the interviewer he's breaking the law. Even illegal questions pose an opportunity for you to present information about your talents. If you're asked an illegal question, don't directly answer it. Deal with the underlying concern, and express your commitment to your career. For example, if an employer asks, “How does your spouse feel about your business travel?” respond with, “I'm fully committed to performing my job well. My career is important to me, and I have a strong support system at home."
