Interview anxiety... pregnant?

Published

I'm even more nervous since i did a forum search and didn't find anyone else asking this.

I have a job interview scheduled next week for a perdiem position that I really want but I'm 28 weeks (noticibly) pregnant. I realize this isn't the best time to be doing this, but I can't remain in my current per diem posistion any longer (they haven't needed me to work in over a month and I need the hours! as well as me being just "dissatisfied" with that specialty) So do I have a chance? Might I be ruining any future chances with this hospital? What do I say? If I didn't change positions I'm sure I'd be working for another 3 months, take a few weeks off (which, not carry a flippant attitude into an interview but, it IS per diem so not a huge deal) and return per diem... eventually perhaps parttime. I really don't think having a baby would have an impact on staffing patterns, not like at my other job and this job would actually be physically easier than my current per diem job. It is in an area of nursing that I am experienced in... I may need a few clinical updates as well as a company orientation but generally will be able to hit the ground running (or waddling as the case may be, LOL)

Anyone do this and succeed?
