The Employee Benefit You Better Be Offering-Family Friendly Employment!<
> Interview Techniques

Public speaking seems to be a problem with most people so it is no surprise that most people spend countless hours preparing for an interview as if they are going to speak in front of thousands of people.

Why is the Interview so Important?

Simply said; if you want the job then you better nail the interview. The interview is the gateway to having the job offered to you. If you are confident in your abilities and can vocalize them then you will more then likely receive and offer.

How can I prepare for the Interview?

First thing is to make sure you are well groomed. It is ok to dress up in a dark suit and matching tie for men or a nice dark business suit for women. Men should be clean shaven with a neat hair cut. Women should have their hair neat and also wear stockings and matching shoes. Heals are ok but not to the point where the woman seems awkward walking in them. Another thing you can do is practice what you are going to say to the interviewer in front of a mirror or other people.

Other Interview Techniques

Always shake the interviewers hand firmly, sit straight up, and pay attention. Always make sure to answer the interviewers questions accurately and concisely. It is a good idea to study about the companys history and current events just in case there is a mention of it. Always be prepared and do not let your eyes wander around the room. Do not bite your fingernails or show any signs of outward nervousness. The interviewer will read your body language and even though body language doesnt show your ability to perform a job, the interviewer will still take it into consideration.

Closing the Gap on Career-Family Choices

Women with infants are one of the fastest-growing segments in the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 31 percent of mothers with children under a year old worked in 1976; this number grew to 55 percent in 2002

The Journal of Managerial Issues also found that companies that offered a telework program had greater profits than those that did not offer such benefits.

Three out of four women with children are in the workforce

The United States joins Australia and New Zealand as the only industrialized nations that do not provide paid maternity leave and health benefits by law, according the International Labor Organization. Women in the U.S., depending on the size of the company, can take up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave each year for childbirth or the adoption of a child under the U.S. Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993…that is it.

Two incomes is a necessity in many households.

Career or Family? Thanks to a new resource, a choice does not have to be made. Responding to this need of family-friendly employment is a new niche job board to help weed through the sea of non-legitimate family friendly jobs. New England Mother’s Organization lists part-time, tele-commute, job share, and family friendly employment listings each week on the websites job board. It is free to members who access the site through the site, www.nemothers.org. Employers instantly connect to top level job seekers who are still on top of their game but nseek a bit of flexibilty due to family needs. These job seekers are grateful for a company that understands the balance issue and are more loyal.

Employers will gain lots of exposure to their listings and “flexible jobs” are truly a hot benefit in what seekers are looking for in a position. Newscasts commonly report on the fact that the parent of today is looking for flexibility in the workplace. Top companies like IBM, S.C. Johnson & Son, SAS, and Wachovia Corporation know that it pays to offer a family-friendly/company culture. Statistics show a significant increase in employee retention, job satisfaction and productivity. When the Swedish furniture-maker, IKEA, with U.S. headquarters in Plymouth Meeting, PA, started incorporating family-friendly benefits like full benefits, including health care, to all employees working at least 20 hours per week, it’s employee turnover rates dropped over the past three years from 76 percent to 36 percent.

Back in the fall of last year, Jeanne Girard, realized that this was an issue that struck home. Girard has a flexible job as the director of an environmental, non-profit organization, The Westport Fishermen’s Association and a 2-year old son. “Because of my flexible position, many people commented to me that they would also like to find a similar opportunity. They wished they had some flexibility or could work part-time so that they could contribute financially to the household but also be with their children more.” Girard continues, “I was fortunate to have a flexible, family-friendly job but wanted to help others connect with those type of opportunities.”

New England Mothers Organization (N.E.M.O.) was born. “I have always worked in the non-profit sector and wanted to do something to help with this social/work issue. N.E.M.O. offers members access to a weekly list of flexible job listings, which is accessed on the web. Employers can list their family-friendly positions. Whether full-time, part-time, or virtual opportunities. Jobs are updated weekly and members look at the site and reply directly to the employer. N.E.M.O. is basically a Mommy Monster.com” rel=”nofollow” rel=”nofollow”

N.E.M.O. has over 5,000 members since officially starting in the spring of 2005. Girard notes, “N.E.M.O. is free of charge to job seekers. We have about a dozen new members sign on daily. It really resonated with parents and serves an incredible need of connecting family-friendly employers to the talented and motivated job applicants.”

Flexible work schedules are the new benefit in an employers package. It is increasingly becoming as looked for in a package just as much as insurance. Savvy employers know flexible scheduling is an instrumental offering to recruiting top employees.

N.E.M.O. is also taking on the challenge of staying on top of legislative and family/work life issues for the area. The hope is that businesses and members will utilize N.E.M.O. as a one stop resource site for work/life issues. N.E.M.O. serves all states.
