I am a two years’ qualified solicitor with a major UK firm and am looking to move. I’m concerned because I’m quite a heavy smoker and someone mentioned to me that employers don’t like to hire smokers these days, especially with the smoking ban coming.
Should I volunteer that information if asked during the interview process? I don’t want to lie but I also don’t want to jeopardise my chances with something that has nothing to do with my ability to do the job.
