By Doug Whiteman, Editor, Bankrate.com: In this podcast, you’ll find out about a new CareerBuilder study that found many companies ask questions that are so inappropriate they’re illegal. And, if your money is in one of America’s mega-banks, you’ll learn why one expert says it’s time for those to be cut down to size.

Mark Hamrick, Bankrate’s Washington bureau chief, talks with:

2. Ryan Mendy, chief operating officer with The Edge Consulting Group, who says big banks should take their own advice and consider spinoffs and divestitures.
