Hmm, I'd say this is more of a 'disparate impact' situation. Even though Fran's actions seem fair, they could disproportionately benefit the Spanish-speaking candidate compared to the others.

Ha! Fran's just trying to speak the same language as the candidate. That's like me taking my French exam in English - totally cheating, if you ask me.

I'm not so sure. Wouldn't this be considered disparate treatment? Fran is treating this candidate differently from the others, which could be seen as unfair.

It's not about discrimination, it's about making sure the candidate can communicate effectively.

This seems like a clear case of accommodation. Fran is making an effort to communicate with the candidate in his preferred language, which is a reasonable adjustment.

But isn't it also a form of disparate treatment since only one candidate is being interviewed in a different language?
