I was on a career break as I was pregnant and the company i was working with had shut down. I did try to look for jobs when i was in second trimester but HR ghosted after they got to know I was pregnant. 

Anyways, I wanted to restart my career and I have around 2 yrs of experience in customer success. Can anyone suggest any openings? 
Preference for a remote role but am okay with a hybrid setup in Gurgaon

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I met one of my college friends yesterday at a bar. She got married last year and was laying down the struggle of finding a new job. 

Now, apparently in many interviews when she reached the final few rounds, the HR or the Hiring Manager enquires about marital status and whether she has any children. 

When she mentions that she recently got married and that she does not have any kids, the company stops responding to her. 

She elaborated that although they might have found another fit for the role but she is a T-1 grad who did her Masters from an Ivy League college and has worked for 4-5 years in both NA+EMEA and India.

It is becoming more apparent to her that, HRs and Hiring Managers have a strong bias because they are definitely presuming that since she recently got married and will likely have a child soon, that she will use up her maternity privileges leading to significant productivity drop. Meaning, that the company will likely have to hire someone else to make up for productivity loss.

She does not plan to have kids for another 3-4 years but getting married is proving really hard for her. 
Especially in the Series B+ startups that she is applying to.

[Thread] Have you ever witnessed someone get discriminated against at work? Why do you think happened?

All these issues root from this being an employer market. We won’t see this as much in good times.

Is it just me or is even a job at the best Tech companies just don’t make any sense for women? 

There are always women who have great family support or husbands that are understanding and encouraging. But generally why does it seem like becoming a senior woman in tech even at the best places is sort of unattractive and significantly increases your odds of “failure” outside of work e.g. divorce,having kids late? 

Interested for thoughts from both men and women.

27F Engineer: Software Engineering Not Worth It For Women?

Hmm, someone I know has more than 10+ patents(ex-broadcom), is a tech evangelist and an implementation advisor for a cloud tech, have 3 kids with fourth on the way. Sometimes you just need a supportive environment.

I'm 5 months into it and now suddenly I do not feel like joining back.. work-life balance at current firm sucks.. I'm dreading leaving my child alone. How do I quit and apply at a firm where my work life balance is respected?

Women who have rejoined rat race after pregnancy 

I have ultimate respect for you. Pregnancy is not easy. Post paturm is not easy. Working a job while having a new born baby is definitely not easy.

But if your answers are about this, rather than the skills I am hiring for, how do I make a judgement if you can do the job?

I think bit of it stems from them feeling left out, guilty of taking a break. Why can't they view it as a challenging phase of life and focus on their individuality.

Easier said than done, but sincerely HR who doesn't know if I can hire you

Hi everyone, need your suggestions on something.

I was recently talking to my mom, who's currently a housewife. She's been a working woman till her late 20s and then left her job because of my birth.

Later, when I reached my teens, she tried resuming her career but couldn't succeed becaus companies won't take someone with such a huge career break. She also tried starting something of her own but didn't work out because of the nature of the business. So she's been at home for a very long time.

Now, I am a working man myself and usually not at home because of tight work schedules. My mother gets a lot of time at home and has  been wanting to do something but is unable to get a direction. What are some of the things she can do to keep herself busy/ restart her career?

Some things that I could think of were:
1) can do some short term educational courses online
2) join some NGO, or some communities (pls note, she is not the type to go to kitty parties😅)
3) open a small at-home business (will appreciate ideas for this)

Also, is anyone aware of any part-time job portals for women with career breaks?

Please drop your suggestions below.

MediBuddy made Period leaves a joke!

I don’t see anything wrong with this. It’s clear that the agenda is not to give additional leave benefit, but to normalise women taking period leaves. At present,  women usually use a different reason (headache/fever/backache etc) to apply for leave, while the actual reason is period pain/discomfort. Not every step is meant for a material benefit, you have to see the intangible value to the society.

Does maternity leave comes under carrer break in India

Hi. Does anyone know if taking a sabbatical during pregnancy can lead to the company using this as a reason of non-performance to either fire the women or not provide her with the maternity leave benefits?

Context
1. Company is aware that the person is pregnant
2. Person in question has been with the company for 2+ years
3. Past appraisal ratings have been 'Exceeds Expectations' or 'Meets Expectation'
4. Sabbatical period could be 1-2 months. Maternity leave will not immediately start after the sabbatical
