I'm in the uk and I'm due this Thursday. I'm also returning to work on 31st march (8/9 weeks after baby arrives) and my dh is going to be working reduced hours to help with childcare and baby will then be at a childminders for the other days.
I'm keen to start a new (higher paid) job soon after maternity leave so I have been keeping an eye to the job boards. I applied last week to a position advertised with an agency for medical
Device sales and I found out today I have an interview this week! The agency know I have been on mat leave since Xmas and know my return to work date, but don't know I'm still pregnant.
The job is with a large global manufacturer so should be a professional outfit, but I am a little worried about the first stage interview... I'm clearly pregnant. Should I be open and honest about my situation and plans to return to work or should I not even bring it up? I know they can't actually ask me anything but I don't want to be ruled out in that basis. The agency have said I'm the strongest candidate they have for the role (although there are another 2 agencies recruiting also).
Thanks for the help!!
