Hi all, does anyone know of any recruiters or hiring managers that work in Affirm Inc. I've been applying for a couple of jobs with them . The role I have applied for I know lam a extraordinary fit for
100% and can help the company/ department succeed. I have a good deal of experience with this role and would love to talk to a recruiter or a hiring manager more about this. If anyone
could reach out to me if you have any information on that I would greatly appreciate it.

No but similar in the way of peri menopause. That foggy brain and irritability is no joke. I'm harder on myself than my admin team and thankfully 95% of my execs are remote and I rarely see the rest so I think it's easier for them to not notice.
Yes. All of the stuff you mentioned happened for me. I had to start changing the way I was doing things a bit so I wasn’t losing track of anything
Yes, I totally get where you’re coming from. I worked until the day before I delivered (scheduled c-section), I was forgetting stuff I’d never forget, getting irritated over the smallest things, and just not feeling as sharp. Third tri, the fatigue hit me hard and I just wanted to nap all day. It’s such a weird shift when you’re used to being on top of everything, but I kept telling myself it's completely normal, you're literally growing a human!
So my first pregnancy I didn’t experience much of anything negative, which I am so thankful for! When it came to the second time around though, my body decided to make up for everything! The pregnancy brain was so real! I had to set timers and make lists for everything or else I’d forget!
Yes, I worked through most of my pregnancy, and wow, the brain fog was real. I’d stare at my to-do list like it was written in another language. Sticky notes and calendar reminders basically became my lifeline.
