Oh it does a little more. It registers electrical signals when you move. It measures if you sweat near the electrodes. Overall none of it actually linked to truthfulness.

Ok, maybe not all. Most. :) As a hiring manager / HR / potential employer, there are a LOT of questions that cannot be asked and areas that cannot be probed: is someone married, what their religion is, straight or gay, political alignment, health issues, membership in the KKK or Black Panthers, etc. however there is nothing to prevent a potential candidate from sharing that information, and once they do, it is fair game to discuss with the candidate and with peers as part of the inerview and election process.
