Ramp On or Off the Job Track with Mom Corps
Email to a friendPrint this article
Whether you are working full time and want a more flexible position, or you are ready to go back to work after taking time off, making a career transition while balancing the demands of family and home can be challenging to say the least. (Daunting, overwhelming and panic-inducing might say it better).
Misstropolis believes in the power of women helping women, and the success of peers empowering each other. We have heard from our readers that a career networking component is something you want on the site, so we are building one. Our goal is connect you to resources which will help you not only meet this challenge, but enjoy the process and find what you want.
To that end, we are excited to announce a new partnership with Mom Corps, a company that espouses very similar values to Misstropolis’ in a different yet compatible industry - staffing and employment. Mom Corps, which has been profiled on almost every major news channel and written about in some of the country’s best newspapers and magazines, is the leader in the “flexible employment market,“ connecting companies to high level talent and providing candidates with job opportunities and resources for working toward life/work balance.
Mom Corps’s website, job board, events, coaching services and networking opportunities are benefits to Misstropolis members looking to on or off-ramp right away, or just starting to think about it.
Join Misstropolis at the first Mom Corps Coffee Club of 2008 and meet the Founder and CEO of Mom Corps, Allison O’Kelly, who will be making a special Boston appearance.
