A Piece For LearnVest: Inappropriate Interview Questions


inappropriate interview questions

Today my first of about four pieces for LearnVest is up. It's about how to answer inappropriate interview questions, specifically when hiring managers start asking about your kids and how you plan to deal with them and work.

It's a piece I'm quite proud of because a few months ago I met with a recruiter -- another woman, at that -- who was more interested in my personal life and childcare plans than, you know, my background in both real estate and all things digital.

So, turning lemons into lemonade, I did some research and wrote this piece. LearnVest is all about helping women manage their money, their life and their careers, so it's a great home for the piece.

4 Inappropriate Interview Questions—and How to Answer Them

More to come over the next few weeks.
