Getting back to work after having a child can be somewhat difficult in order to find the right position that suits those with a family, so 'Puffling' is a platform for back-to-work moms to utilize. 'Puffling' works by having moms put in their info and get paired up with another candidate in order to help develop a job share partnership. This means that both parties will share a position in order to help both balance the responsibilities of family life and work life simultaneously.
The 'Puffling' platform for back-to-work moms comes as a welcome new method for moms to find a job share partner to get back into the industry without the associated stress. Once you've found the right partner, both parties interview together to show a potential employer how they can fulfill responsibilities as a micro team.
