Interview

Hello

I've got a job interview today, do I tell them I've had breast cancer last year. I'm due more surgery.  Please can anyone advice on what to tell them.

Thank you

  • Hello Goofy2014,

    First of all, best of luck for your interview today! I hope it goes well and whatever happens it will be good experience. Fingers, toes and everything crossed...

    I thought I would share this link with you in particular under the paragraph "Do I have to tell a new employer about my diagnosis?" which contains information on the Equality Act 2010. Have a good read of all the information included in there and I hope it will be useful to you.

    I am sure other forum members will be along soon to share their own experience of applying for work after a cancer diagnosis.

    Best wishes,
