Employers in the New York and Boston metropolitan areas and beyond depend on Women@Work as a valuable and consistent source of top caliber mid to senior-level candidates for full-time, part-time, consulting and "temporary" placements. Our returning professional women are an untapped and hard-to-find resource and employers are also interested in our current professionals who are seeking more work-life balance or simply a traditional full-time job closer to home.
We work with employers both large and small in every industry. Positions span the executive to the administrative levels and compensation for recent searches has ranged from the full-time equivalent of approximately $50K to $1M.

Because Women@Work is, first and foremost, a networking organization, all job postings are sent to every woman in the specific geographic area--regardless of their areas of interest. Ours is a non-traditional recruiting process: in a very short time, both current and returning professional women spread the word about Women@Work job postings and help each other find interesting opportunities.
Not all women in the network find new opportunities from our placement program. It is the process of smart women helping other smart women and other Women@Work products and services that inspire, motivate and guide many women to find positions on their own.
Most important is for women to recognize the fact that there is no better time for women to reenter the workforce or seek work-life balance and flexibility. The traditional source of new workforce talent--27 to 34 year-olds--will decline by 2.7 million workers just by 2008. One of the fastest-growing workforce pools is 45 to 64-year-olds--exactly the women in our network who are at or nearing that age demographic.
Also by 2008, in Fairfield County, CT alone, there will be a deficit of 52,000 knowledge-based workers to fill professional jobs. Workforce trends and demographics are in our favor: there is power in numbers and employers can no longer afford to consider post-40 employees "outdated" or hold firm on traditional, inflexible work structures.
Women@Work has attracted the attention of national media such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times,
The Boston Globe, USA Today, The Chicago Tribune, CBS Evening News, CBS News Radio, NPR, NBC's Today Show,
More Magazine, Pink Magazine, Money Magazine, Working Mother Magazine, and the Ladies Home Journal--as well as the Department of Labor in Washington. As our network
continues to rapidly expand, we will be an increasingly powerful voice on the need for work-life flexibility for the women in our network and all the daughters who follow.
