Hiring the Sequencing Mom

08Sep08

Women who choose to leave their jobs and stay with their children for a few years are frequently refered to as “sequencing moms”. Employers are increasingly willing to hire these sequencing moms despite gaps in their work history. In fact, according to a US study by Corporate Project Resources Inc., more than 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies say they would be likely to hire a “sequencing mom” on a contract or short-term basis.

    Since my previous comment has not been published, I assume that you are closed to criticism. I think you can handle such comments in a better way. Rather than pretending that such comments never appear, you could take them up and initiate a discussion. Who knows, you might get some nice ideas to make this site work!

      Hi Shalz,

      We are happy to have all comments- good and bad. It ’s what makes gharkamai better…

      We believe, and are currently seeing with gharkamai.com, that these kind of portals are being used. It’s cheaper for an employer to hire a professional for a specific project that to keep them on year after year. If they chose to employ the professional remotely than they don’t even have to pay costs for providing an office space, which in cities like Delhi and Mumbai is a terrific option.

      Do keep your comments flowing.
      Regards,
      The gharkamai team
