Oncology job opportunity vs pregnancy

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I am 2 months pregnant and have been applying for couple of jobs for the past 2 months. For the first time (EVER) I got a call for an interview, BUT it is for oncology unit. I know that there are things that a pregnant woman should avoid like radiation/radioactive patients.. I am debating myself if I should push for the job or just decline it because of my pregnancy.. Should I tell the HR that I am pregnant during the interview or after I get hired?? Has anyone experienced this or knew someone who went through this situation?? I need advices please???

Ooops sorry!! It's a grammar error. I am still trying to improve my English. I am not perfect and no one is perfect. However, I know that there's always a room for improvement. It's my third language, so I have to learn it the hard way. :banghead:

I'll try harder next time and thanks for the ADVICE. Haha

Third language! How wonderful! What other languages do you speak? I speak English, obviously, Spanish and just enough French to get myself in trouble.

Filipino and Jap.. I know a little bit of Spanish and French..

Anyway, I got the job, but not in Onco. They have available position for ortho/neuro so I took it. Yay! I am so excited!!!

And if you guys see me posting stuff with wrong grammar, please let me know so I can fix and learn from it. Thanks!!!

Yes! My Uncle is white and he's over 50 and he thinks his grammar is perfect! LOL Love him though.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I got hired in an ortho/neuro unit. I declined the onco..
