Wait until you have the offer, at the very least. You might also be able to negotiate better maternity leave depending on their policies (e.g., if you have to be there for a year before taking paid leave).
Nope
No, I would definitely wait to see if there is interest from the firm and let things progress before disclosing.
Thank you!!
Be prepared to get snubbed and not staffed on matters when you return. Happened to an associate at one of my previous firms who hid her pregnancy at 9 months during the interview process, started and delivered a day later. Most people wait until they return from leave to explore new opportunities. Chances are this firm will have other related opening again at some point. I would wait.
I don’t know. Depends on the group and the leader.
