If you are enlisting in the army you are required to go through a medical examination. If you think this is an invasion of privacy you are free not to enlist.

I do not consider it to be so though, after all your consent was asked first and besides they are simply asking this cause they do not want a situation where they would hire someone that is not medically fit for a very tedious work.

It depends on the medical tests. Women applicant must submit pregnancy tests as it's important to know the condition of your women workers. Chest x-ray is also important because illness associated with the lungs is contagious. Drug test must also be conducted.
Since we are invaded with coronavirus and experienced the pandemic, some companies are asking for swab test. I think it is fine if the company will pay for it. But medical test needs to be done, either physical or not.
