The man who took the interview who was the business owner as well asked me if I am going to have kids in the future because he would not prefer me to have some....

It is illegal for him to make the hiring decision based on your answer to that question. But i don’t know what you can do about it.

And I’m sorry that happened to you, and that this guy is discriminating against women who want to have kids.

I think you should decide if this really is the company you’d like to work for.

Aside from it being illegal, no job should dictate major life decisions

I'm looking for some insight into a hiring process I'm currently in.

I had a phone screen on 8/10, Zoom interview on 8/17, writing materials deadline on 8/22, in-person interview with leadership team on 8/31, and reference checks last week.

Now, I have a "short Zoom interview" with the VP tomorrow; the hiring manager just scheduled it today. What does this mean? Are they stuck between two candidates, is it a job offer, something else?

Have you ever wondered if the questions in the HR/behavioural interviews are considerate for people who are extremely literal? E.g. asking a candidate that the recruiter reached out to “why they want to work for <insert big conglomerate here>”. Well, that would be a very weird question to answer without knowing what position/team the applicant is meant to work on.
