To add or not to add

Mothers need to understand both the up and downsides of adding the title of 'mum' to their resume.

• Although adding the title of 'mum' can feel empowering, it may still be risky as implicit bias is a huge factor.
• A company's culture may also affect if the title belongs on that resume. However, if enough mothers vote with their feet, this could help spur a larger cultural change.
• Right now, adding 'mum' to a CV isn't standard. It's difficult to know if more renegrades willing to 'sacrifice themselves' can change how women are viewed in the workplace.
