I'm 29+5 and due to go on maternity leave in 5 weeks time. After an incident at work today I have pretty much decided not to come back after my leave (this incident was the last straw in a number of things that have done to make me feel completely undervalued in this place). Originally I was thinking, I'm on a good salary, been here for years I would be stupid to leave etc but I really don't think I can do it.
So, what I'm interested in hearing about are people's experiences of looking for work/interviewing whilst on maternity leave and how successful it has been. Do you find companies are reluctant to hire new mothers? Are there any rules against doing this whilst taking SMP? Any advice gratefully received. Thanks.
