[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I interviewed for a (much wanted) job at 28 weeks pregnant. I'm looking at starting it potentially around 33 weeks. Have not yet disclosed (although now it would be visibly very obvious to anyone). At what point should I disclose? How should I navigate the need for leave? I know many would say I was nuts to even apply, but this was a rare opportunity to go after a job closely aligned with my professional ambitions that I've been working towards for nearly two decades.[/quote] As a hiring manager, and mom of two toddlers, I would feel much more warmly towards someone who disclosed after accepting the offer but before the first day so I could plan from a training and workload perspective and work with HR to ensure you had a sufficient leave period.
