Not Sure About Hiring A Stay-at-home Mom?

I just read this gem, In Honor Of Stay-At-Home Moms referring to To grandmother Pelosi's house we go. The quote I loved,

At a minimum, it teaches you just how many supposed grown-ups only need a good, long nap to be decent neighbors and co-workers.

If you're not sure about whether you should hire stay-at-home Moms who are now rejoining the workforce, think about Nancy Pelosi. And, one of my clients says, "I love those Moms who raised children for a few years--the more the better. They are great project managers and have great organizational skills." (He was talking about people who had enough technical expertise to manage technical projects.) So, take a chance, assuming these candidates meet your needs, with the exception of recent workforce experience.
