One of my clients reached out about an open position with their organization. It's not the best time to make a career move being 4 months pregnant to an organization that's too small to qualify for FMLA leave, but it's basically a dream job (CFO of a medium sized not-for-profit), so I don't want to pass up the opportunity. Since this is a client that I work with frequently, they already knew that I'm expecting and they asked that I come up with a plan for how I'd handle the time off if I get the job (they're interviewing other candidates; I'm not sure how good my chances really are). I have no idea what to offer. On one hand, I do want the job and am tempted to promise the moon ("Sure, I'll be available 24/7 by phone or email"), but I don't want to over promise/under deliver (I do remember those first few weeks) or take too much time away from the new baby. Anyone have any experience with anything similar?
Re: Pregnancy/Interviewing
Also, leading up to birth, what would your restrictions be? (recall being very tired & I went out a month early but was answering emails at that point. Now LO does not let me do that & cannot imagine having more energy the 2nd time around).
