How Can I Navigate Pumping at My New Job as a New Lab Tech? Answers: https://lnkd.in/gn7bebng #NewJob #WorkingMom #PumpingAtWork #LabTechJourney Hey everyone! 👋 I recently landed a lab tech position in NYC, and I’m super excited to start this new chapter. However, there's a little something that's been on my mind: I'm a new mom to a 10-month-old and I need to pump while I'm at work. Since I'm fresh to the workforce, I'm feeling a bit uncertain about how to navigate this. 😅 Here are my main concerns: Timing to Inform HR: When should I let HR know about my pumping needs? Since I haven't started yet, should I reach out now? Child's Age Disclosure: Should I mention my child's age in my communication with HR? Will it help them understand my situation better? Handling Conversations: If colleagues ask about my child or related topics, how should I respond? I want to keep it professional, but I’m aware that it may come up. Job Security: Is there any risk that the company might reconsider my position once they know I need to pump? Each of these points can weigh heavily on a new mom starting a job. It's tough when you’re balancing the excitement ...

"Just had an inspiring call with a candidate that reminded me why I love recruiting! Recruiter: 'Tell me about your ideal role.' Candidate: 'I'm passionate about data science but also value work-life balance.' R: 'I have a position that might interest you...' C: 'Sounds great, but I'm hesitant about the travel.' R: 'They offer remote work two days a week.' C: 'That's perfect! When can I interview?' Fast forward three weeks: C: 'I got the offer!' R: 'Congratulations! How do you feel?' C: 'Excited and grateful. Thanks for your support!' Moments like these make it all worthwhile. #RecruitingWins #CareerSuccess"

In the golden triangle of Mumbai, Bangalore, and Gurgain, the pulse of India’s market research and analytics beats strong. Yet, this vibrancy is muffled for those yearning for the freedom to contribute from afar – from the comfort of their homes or the quiet of a distant city. The world is shifting, embracing four-day workweeks and remote work as the new norm. Yet, here we stand, our feet stuck in the traditional mire, where new startups, joint ventures, KPOs, and MNCs cling to outdated work models. The rigidity is stifling, and the whispers of the old guard, glorifying the grueling 70-hour workweek, are far from inspiring. It’s time for a change. It’s time for the industry to recognize that talent isn’t tethered to a location. The digital age has dissolved borders, and our policies need to reflect this evolution. Remote work isn’t just a perk; it’s a necessity for tapping into the vast pool of skilled individuals who prefer flexibility over the daily grind to an office. The statistics speak for themselves. Remote work has surged, with significant percentages of employees embracing hybrid or fully remote models. Yet, despite this global trend, our local market seems resistant to change, often limiting remote work to certain zones or for a capped duration. We must advocate for more inclusive work policies that accommodate individual contributors who thrive outside the conventional office environment. It’s not just about work-life balance; it’s about recognizing that the best ideas don’t always come from within the four walls of an office. Let’s not fall behind. Let’s pave the way for a future where work comes to the worker, not the other way around. It’s time to unshackle ourselves from the geographic chains and embrace the boundless potential of remote work in market research and analytics.
