Pregnancy is tough for women who are of the working class. But just because you have a baby on the way, it doesn't mean you no longer have the chance to find a job that you are passionate about. Here are some tips that would help pregnant women find a job and ace their job interviews.
Through the help of the sites Fast Company and Job Interview Tools, the following points sum up all the techniques a pregnant woman needs to win her job interview and finally get hired.
1. No Need To Tell You Are Pregnant.
If you are on your first trimester and your baby bump is still not showing at all, you have to know that you are not obliged to disclose to your possible employer your pregnancy. Truth is, it is even against your rights should the company ask you too many questions regarding your marital status and even your pregnancy.
It is a ground for discrimination, which means the said act is actually against the law. Job Interview Tools posted that the Civil Rights of 1964 will back you up with your plan on not having the need to disclose your pregnancy.
2. Tell Your Interviewee That Your Pregnancy Won't Get In The Way
Now, the question is what if they can see that you are pregnant since your belly has already grown big? It still shouldn't be a problem. All you need to do is to assure them that your pregnancy will never be an issue and that you could still function and do all your job as required and expected.
3. Focus On Your Skills and Experiences
Whether they see that you are pregnant or not, it is important that you are confident in telling them about your skills and what makes you indispensable in the company. Tell them what you are really good at and even your past achievements and your pregnancy won't even an issue at all.
These three simple tips would certainly help any pregnant women land the job they want to have -- nailing their job interviews, of course. Good luck!
