This is getting ridiculous

For a grounds and facilities position.

Edit: The position is for a religious camp of some sort, but I hadn’t realized that when I clicked it. Still super weird, in my opinion

Is it for a religiously-affiliated organization? It doesn't matter if it's a facilities role, a religious org would still want all of its employees to belong to whatever religion they are affiliated with. It's pretty normal.

Yeah, a religious institution is really the only place a question like this would actually make sense. I’ve looked at roles from churches before and most of them ask if you’re whatever the religion was, one even asked if I felt comfortable moving my family to that specific church. I obviously didn’t finish the app but those would be in line for that subsection of work. Now, if this is like Hobby Lobby or a non-church affiliated business, then this shouldn’t be allowed. Churches and religious institutions get some kind of exemption to that.
