What is a good way to get back to working after a long absence of being a stay home mom? It depends on what kind of work you are looking for, but here is what I recommend:
长久在家照顾宝贝的妈妈如何找到一个好的方式重返职场？这取决于你在寻找什么工作，下面是我的推荐：
1.Begin volunteering for events or companies in the field you wish to work for now while looking for a job.
1. 找工作时，先从你想从事的行业或者公司开始一些志愿服务。
This counts as experience which you can put on your resume and is an excellent way to hear about job openings.
这可以增加你简历中的工作经验，也是打开工作大门的理想方式。
2. Attend networking events and Meetup groups to build a professional network.
2. 参加聚会或者小活动以建立职业网络。
3. If applicable, refresh your skills with an online certification course.
3. 如果可行的话，参加在线认证课程以更新技能。
There are hundreds out there; some are free. You can do this from home while the kids are asleep. Put this on your resume to show your education is current and continuing.
网上有很多，很多都是免费的。你可以在家里在宝宝睡着时学习。把这些能力充实到你的简历里，也显示你的学习是持续的。
4. Refine your personal brand (see The Complete Guide to Building Your Personal Brand).
4. 提炼个人品牌（更多见建立个人品牌的完整指南）
A majority of companies now check your social media profile(s) as part of the hiring process. I say start by ensuring your Facebook is private - employers don’t need to see that stuff. If you have a Twitter account that is identifiable as you, make sure the tweets are appropriate (even better would be to begin tweeting about your industry or the industry you want to be in).
许多公司机构现在都会检查你的社交账户信息，这是他们招聘过程中一部分。我想说的是，通过Facebook设置部分信息为私密，招聘者不需要看这些内容。如果有个Twitter账户可定位到你，确保更新的信息是恰当的（最好是更新你行业或者想去行业的信息）。
Spruce up your Linkedin.
装饰你的Linkedin界面。
If it makes sense, make your website where you can blog about the industry and your experience. Heck, you could even blog about the transition from full-time mother to working mom!
如果可以的话，制作自己的网站，这样可以展示行业信息和你的经历。你甚至可以展示是如何从全职妈妈转变到职业女性的。
5. Don’t be discouraged.
5. 不要灰心。
I operated under a 1/10 rule: apply for ten jobs and hope that one company would get back to me. I found that the more thought I put into the cover letter, the better the outcome was. I highly recommend reading this Medium post on applying for jobs online: “Why I didn’t look at your resume“.
我按照1/10的规则操作：申请10份工作，并希望有个公司能反馈给我。然后，我发现，你的思想融入介绍信的越多，结果就越好。同时，我也强烈建议阅读Medium关于申请在线职位的帖子：“为什么我不看你的简历。”
