when to disclose pregnancy while applying for new jobs
I am pursuing a new job opportunity which is in the same agency as mine, but different location/department, so they will not see me in person. I'm currently late into pregnancy, ready to start my mat leave in a couple of weeks (already submitted and approved). I am also "affected" under WFA, and I will get an opting letter when i come back after 18 months, as my program will not exist. I had a very promising interview and a great discussion with a hiring manager, but I didn't disclose my pregnancy and plans for mat leave. What do people normally do in these situations? Can I even accept an offer if i'm on protected leave? Should I have disclosed it earlier? Any advice is appreciated
