[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women, specially moms who take time off or go part time, freelance etc, tend to underestimate themselves and extra life skills they learn on the way. Make sure you aren't overqualified and not limiting yourself to junior positions.[/quote] This makes no sense. Taking time off or freelancing/going part time inherently means skill atrophy, which is really unattractive to employers. If anything, sometimes these women overestimate their market value. There are not "extra life skills" one learns when exiting the work force to care for children. Sorry about that. [/quote]
