Kids back to school = Mom back to work - Sterling Career Concepts

Kids back to school = Mom back to work Kids back to school = Mom back to work? I was speaking with a new client yesterday morning a stay at home mom  excited to  return to full-time employment.  After we worked through her background, strengths, skills, computer knowledge, past positions, part-time  work, and volunteer  roles  over the past six years, the topic of interviewing came up along with an a-ha moment.   To moms everywhere if you stayed home with your children, when the time comes to  interview  for full-time employment outside of the home, OWN YOUR DECISION.   Stand by your  choice to step aside from your career 3, 5, 7, or 10 years ago and do not waiver. Do not sound apologetic or regretful.  Stand confident that it was the right decision for you at the time just as returning to the paid workforce  is the right decision for you now. Yes, you may have stepped aside for a period of time, but youre stronger for your experiences.  Answer the question as a matter of fact and without hesitation. Experience sells.  You and I both know you will be an amazing addition to the team show them!
