    Totally optional.

    Private sector employers with more than 100 employees and federal contractors with more then 50 employees are requested to complete and submit these forms yearly.

    Potential employees are not legally required to complete the form but it's helpful to ensuring diversity in larger workplaces.

    No, you don't have to complete it. As a former recruiter, I never even saw the completed EEO information and it had no bearing on whether or not an applicant was contacted.
