[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They can't legally refuse to interview you because you're pregnant; they can make a decision, though, that you were not forthcoming prior to the interview and that for that reason, they don't want to hire you. So, call and tell them. The worst that can happen is that you don't get the job (even if the subconscious or conscious reason is because of the pregnancy). The best is that they respect you as an honest, forthright employee who has the whole picture (for everyone) in mind from the fore. [/quote] I disagree. Do you expect a diabetic or cancer patient to disclose their medical conditions before an interview? Pregnancy has nothing to do with who is the best qualified candidate and should not be a consideration in who gets the job. Certainly, if OP is far enough along to be noticeably pregnant, she should discuss availability but there's nothing dishonest or less than forthcoming about not disclosing it ahead of time.[/quote]
