Redundancy followed by pregnancy

3 replies

hardtofindanickname · 24/05/2010 11:44

Advice needed please: I have been made redundant, 2 weeks later I find out I am pregnant ... Thrilled but - what do I do work wise? I need/want to work until December and will not enter a new role on my career ladder hiding to any future empoyer that I am pregnant (and needless to say I will not get any roles admitting to it!!)
Any ideas out there?

You could temp for agencies, that way you can still earn and have no gaps on your CV - you could then claim MA.

Many thanks. I have considered this and will probably go down that route..only problem is salaries tend to be very low and I need to cover a £1200 nursery fee... oh well, onwards and upwards.

I don't think it would hurt to apply for jobs and tel them you're pregnant in the interview.

It's quite a long time till December so you never know, you might get something.
