I Need to Find a Job

Hi,

I have been a stay-at-home-mom for the last three years. I quit my Office Assistant job to take care of my sons when my youngest was born (2003).

At this point, my oldest is in school full time and the youngest 2 1/2 hours a day Mon-Fri.

Please give me some ideas of PT jobs that would fit such a weird schedule. The other day I even applied for a job at Target and they sent me a card saying "thank you for applying, but no". I have an associate degree as Executive Bilingual Secretary.

Your ideas will be very helpful.

Cheers! :-)

Alina,
It seems like you could work as a school aide. Also, assuming your other language is Spanish, you know those skills are in demand. Can you work at your son's preschool? Good luck.

Alina,
I also just started in direct selling and love it. Check out www.karavita.com. It is extremely flexible and I love the products. If you like what you see, I can give you more information. Good Luck! Finding a job you love can sometimes be a job itself!

Wow. Bilingual. I would imagine that would open up quite a few doors for you. Perhaps transcription?

I am trying to be a WAHM mom myself. I have dived into direct sales. You could try and see how it works out for you. It can be very rewarding!

Good luck! If hear of other opps, please let me know and I will do the same. It's so hard to find work!

click on "Opportunities" at the top and then click on the "Opportunity Presentation" bottom right side of the screen.

The hours you have would be a perfect fit AND the company is about to go International so bilingual would be HUGE! There are some other qualifications you would need to have to be successful. You have to enjoy working with people, helping others and be a generally kind person. The biggest part of the job is training.

After you take a look at the presentation, if you think it might be a good fit for you, I can help you get started or answer any questions. Just email me back here.
