They ask me if I have girlfriend(s), I speechless for maybe 5-10 second, then they told me the answer is define my sallary..

Is that normal / common question.?

    No, it is not.

    They are mixing personal with business.

    Asking about that should only function to find a person that fits within the company and not for anything else.

    It's legally questionable, depending on where you are in the world, but no matter where you are, it's extremely unprofessional, and doesn't speak well for how life would be as a fulltime employee.

    "Why do you care? Why does that influence my salary? It shouldn't, because I provide value to you, and I expect you to pay me as such. Stop trying to bargain my ability to buy food."

    No, doesn’t matter if you have a SO or family, that’s no company business

    @N00bPancakes They ask that because someone in a relationship has more chance to have children thus having to take some time off. Another one towards women only is: Do you have any children? If not, there's once again more chance.

    Anyway, it's illegal in many places and should be in the rest too.

    It goes the other way too. A married employee is less likely to flake out and leave for another offer.
