As the title says really, I'm torn as to what to do. Basically I return to work in 4 weeks time on a job share basis which is fine, I'm happy my work have been so accommodating but the issue is if I hadn't gone off to have a baby then I probably would have looked for a new job.
It's a nice place to work but I feel I know the job inside out, have taken on additional responsibilities and there are no promotional opportunities in the near futrue (there have barely been any in the 4 years I have been there).
Anyway our family is complete for now and I would like to focus on my career a little with the aim to possibly have a second child in 2-3yeats time and then re train in HR.
Anyway the job I have an interview for isn't in HR but would be a brilliant next step career wise and would look good on my cv and losely relates to HR. However it is FT and I don't know how we will manage as a family plus the guilt I might feel leaving my dd could be awful.
So what would you do, put your career on hold for another 5 (possibly more) years or try to juggle family life and work??
My dh thinks I should go for the interview and see what they say. I know a little about the company and they seem to be good employers and may eventually agree to PT should we decide to have a second child in the future. We may not though so this may not be an issue.
I just don't know what to do ??
