In the US and some other countries, interviewers aren't supposed to ask questions about family and personal information.In most countries, however, personal questions are very common during job interviews.
In Germany, your interview might begin with a very short conversation followed by a formal (正式的) interview. In Mexico and many other countries, the whole interview might not be formal.
