7. How do we feel about the 'Stay At Home Mum" job title on LinkedIn?
Apr 23, 2021 Season 1 Episode 7

Welcome to the show!

On this week's episode we're talking about the new Stay-At-Home-Mum (or Dad) job title on LinkedIn.

Overall we think it's a Good Thing but with some caveats. We also get on to whether there is something fundamentally exclusive from a D&I perspective about CVs and what some alternatives might be.

We talk about how attitudes towards career breaks need to change and how to think differently about transferable skills. The conversation goes beyond taking a break to have kids.

Blaire would love to hear from any companies who don't request a CV at all - what do you do instead?

And we'd love to hear from D&I experts about whether there could be something fundamentally anti-diversity about CVs.

We also talk about Income Protection Insurance and whether or not a policy should cover mental health if you've had mental health issues in the past. Natasha shares her personal experience and would love to connect with anyone who is also working in this area, trying to reduce the stigma around talking about mental health or influence insurance companies when it comes to what they will cover.
