I don't mention my family in an interview unless the interviewer mentions their own family. I've had a couple of instances of (possibly) agism in interviews, and I am doing my best to get hired.
- scarface74 9y agoI always mention my family. I want to be "discriminated against". I want any company I work for to assume I'm going to put my family first. I don't want to work for a company that expects any less.
- Justsignedup 9y agoI always mention in the following context: "When necessary I will work overtime, but I prefer not to. I do not normally stay extremely late because I have a child that I care to see." If a company reacts negatively to that, I will not accept the job. If they later complain I will remind them that I mentioned this before even starting. And most people are understanding, or you just don't want to work for them.
