If you start a career at a new company and are pregnant, do you get maternity leave? I know some companies say you have to work at the company for a year

You are not entitled to 3 months maternity leave by law. Unless eligible for FMLA, which you almost certainly won’t be, you’ll be eligible for whatever the firm policy provides. I previously worked for a state government and got 6 weeks medical leave (8 if had a c-section). Find out before accepting and get it in writing. I was told I could take 12 weeks verbally, which was retracted. Also, if you take any unpaid leave, any other benefits you get will almost certainly stop. If I had it to do over again, never would have changed jobs while pregnant.

That’s true, for some reasons I thought it was a law. It should be a law. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Exactly each company is different... you are entitled to 3 months of ML by law, the question you should really be asking is “ Paid Maternity Leave”... Most firms have ST disability that covers a percentage for a certain period. Reach out to HR.

Hmmm okay good to know. Now if you’re covered with paid maternity leave from your employer can you also do short term disability?

ML and STD usually run concurrently so if you are only eligible for 6 weeks STD, standard after delivery, and ML is 12 weeks then you can be out for 12 weeks total. Basically the STD portion is just how your employer classifies the time internally and doesn't change anything for you.

Looking for potential roles in PDX. Posting a redacted resume. The heading on this resume is for customer solutions professional, but I am also really great with data entry and very tech savvy. I am also taking classes in python. Something in the greater PDX area would be strongly preferable since I don't have a car (I do have a driver's license, just to clarify) unless the work is within a reasonable commute. I also have a lot healthcare experience. Ping me!

My father (mid 50s) is interviewing for a new engineering role and is getting discouraged when he doesn’t hear back from the recruiter after a couple days have passed since last contact. My personal experience is that this is common (even when you are a strong candidate) and that he should only start getting concerned after 1-2 weeks have gone by without any word from the recruiter. Thoughts? I’d love to get him some info from others about this so he can relax a bit…
