[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I added that value and since I also make hiring decisions, I would be really turned off by a candidate who is trumpeting about how she deserves more simply because they stayed in the work force. [/quote] I don't think anyone is doing that in an interview, but they may raise the fact that they [b]have recent experience, which many employers value[/b]. That's all. Companies and businesses care who seems most likely to get the job done well. That is it. They don't care about your life decisions other than the extent to which they are relevant to that issue.[/quote] What good is that since you're recently married, will likely get pregnant soon, and need extended maternity leave anyway? I'd rather get someone who's BTDT and now focuses again on work as a priority. See, once you start discriminating, there's no end to these type of ramifications.[/quote]
