Going back to our Job Negotiation Case scenario, you are Joanna Smith, you're presently 8 weeks pregnant and neither potential employer knows this. It's presently February, which means you'll be expecting your bundle of joy to arrive in the month of September. You're confident that you will still graduate this upcoming May and be ready to work until your child is born. Discuss the following: How does this change your Negotiation Plan, if at all? What are your Best Alternatives to Negotiated Agreement (BATNA) with either employer? Does this change your order of priorities in your benefits and employment package? What strategies would you use to create joint value with either employer? When, how and if, you will disclose the pregnancy to the two potential employers. Bear in mind that this entire negotiation is via email and that technically it is illegal for any employer to discriminate in their hiring process based on family status. However, this type of discrimination is often hard to prove, especially if the potential employers have other qualified candidates for the job
