My boy friend and I have an interview at the same company. Different departments. I am going into my second interview and he has his first. How should we disclose to our hiring managers that we are both interviewing? I don’t want to keep it from them. We both love the company and don’t know how to go about it.

There’s no reason to disclose it to them

like

I’d do it closer to or at the offer stage. The offer itself may have a nepotism disclosure form where you could detail it or, if it doesn’t, you can make the voluntary disclosure at that juncture. At best, it’s a welcomed cherry on top and a heads up they will appreciate you making, just to be sure, before making it all official. I prefer as blind as profiles, for as long as possible; delaying any type of biases (including those involving marital status) from being introduced into the equation until later in the recruiting process, if at all! Ymmv.

I agree you don’t have to disclose that

like

It won’t! Especially since you both are in different departments it should not matter. If they do have a rule where say you were a high level and your husband would be working under you in the same department that might be an issue depending on the company policy but other than that you’re both all good! I had some coworkers where the whole time I worked with them I didn’t know they were married!

Unkess they have a policy regarding personal relationships in the workplace, I wouldn't bother disclosing.

How would they know this until they both join? Would be really strange to ask this before starting.

I would not disclose at all

Will it look bad if we both get an offer and didn’t tell them beforehand?

It’s the same like saying you don’t have to disclose you have kids for example! From my experience you’ll be all good

If you aren't going to be in the same department there is no need to disclose it. If you aren't on the same team it really doesn't matter. Nobody needs to know your business.

I don't think it will affect the two of you. But if you want to be sure, you can disclose it at the offer stage. Good luck!

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

I strongly believe new hire onboarding should not sit in the HR/People Operations space but should sit in the HR Coordinator/HR Generalist space. As a new hire, they should be able to have a confirmed point of contact especially during their first 90 days and People Ops should not be that point of contact unless there’s system or access issues.

Hi!! I’m an HR Coordinator currently (about two years of experience) but my job has so many responsibilities and tasks I’m beyond burnt out.

Is it normal to feel like you have just as many responsibilities as your superiors who make 30k+ more than you?
