If A Mom Had A Resume

SMB Mom Resume

Back when I was fresh out of college, I worked as a recruiter and looked a resumes all day long. I saw some fairly interesting things to say the least. I recently found myself wondering what the resume of a mom might look like. Day to day, and hour to hour, even minute to minute, we hold so many different jobs and strive to complete a single task. When it really comes down to it, what would it look like to put a corporate spin on what a mom does everyday?
