Success Story: Nicole Blackwood
Tell us about you and your experience finding work on HireMyMom.
I had been looking for a job since June with no luck, I stumbled upon HireMyMom on Facebook, joined the FB page and after seeing some of the success stories decided to give the website a try. After a week and a half, and applying for 8 jobs on the site, I was contacted for an interview and was hired the next day!
What are your top tips for landing a job or jobs on HireMyMom.com?
Don’t get discouraged, apply to anything you know you have at least a few of the skills for, one person will never have every skill an employer is looking for. And look outside your comfort zone. I have never worked as a copywriter before, turns out I’m pretty good at it.
What piece of advice do you wish someone had given you at the start of your work from home journey?
“If it was meant for everyone, then everyone would do it”. I wasn’t sure how I would take working from home, I enjoy being out and around people, turns out working from home is a pretty good fit for me.
What do you see as your greatest success in life?
Being able to stay home with my kids when they were young. You will never get that time back, and I am so eternally grateful I had the precious time with them.
What is something about you that many people don’t know?
I love to binge watch cooking competitions and HGTV.
