Working with FoundHer was an amazing experience. They helped me find the best position to enhance my career and personal needs. As a mom of two young children, I was able to get back into the workforce after two years, smoothly. They walked me through the interview process and pointed out my strengths. Their coaching and support ultimately gave me the confidence and resulted in an offer that I accepted. Thank you for believing in me and understanding my needs!

Women play a significant role in our industry and we will continue to maintain a strong suburban presence in Connecticut, specifically to be more attractive and appealing to moms that are balancing work and home responsibilities and can’t afford 2-3 hours of commuting each day.

Working with FoundHer was a great experience. Not only did Runa and Jasmine really listen to what it was I was looking for, but they were very encouraging and supportive throughout the whole process. They made returning to the workforce, after being home with my two young children for a couple years, seamless.

Connie Hsiung, VP of Finance, Ellevest
I wanted to partner with FoundHer because of their mission to help mothers re-enter the workforce and their focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion. I needed part-time accounting help and along with finding someone with the right accounting skill set, it was important for me to find someone aligned with Ellevest's mission and values. FoundHer was very thoughtful throughout the process -- understanding the role requirements, the importance of having someone mission-aligned, and helping us stay within our budget.

Thank you to FoundHer for believing in me and encouraging my professional life! I had done a bit of consulting over the last 8 years, but had not considered truly returning to work in finance until FoundHer found an amazing opportunity for me that I could not pass up. They supported me every step of the way from my initial resume submission to my many rounds of interviews, to negotiating the final terms. I am so grateful I found a job that is fulfilling yet also flexible and I would recommend FoundHer to any mom looking for a new job!
