Differences in job interview questions.

My wife always gets many about kids, her daily routine, daycare/school times, and how she manages to care for one if sick.

I have never been asked about that, and I have always brought my kids up in the conversation.

@ramiroruiz Interesting. I've administered a fair number of job interviews and technical screenings for a large tech company and haven't once asked anyone about their family. It never occurred to me.

@365Erik that’s great to hear. Probably is the culture, we live in Mexico so many companies see mothers as a potential problem. That’s also a good filter for us to know which companies are worth our time.
