Monique M.

I chose to post an job listing with this company because as someone who once was a stay-at-home mom I loved the idea of being able to hire a mom. I own a small mental health clinical practice and was in need of an assistant who could work part-time and from home so I thought I might try to post on Hire My Mom. Not only does the company charge a rather large fee just to post a job an ad (while reputable sites such as indeed.com allow free ad job postings), but, after I crafted my ad to post, I received an email saying they would not post my job unless I created a lnked-in page and linked to them through my linked-in profile (i. E. free promotion). As a psychologist I do not have a Linked-in page. (I don't want patients seeking contact info for other patients.) However, t even if I did have a Linked-in page I do not think I would link to them as the tactic struck me as coercive. I wound up asking the company to take down my listing. What a shame. All I wanted to do was help a stay-at-home mom by giving them a resume building experience while, it seems, all the company really wants is profit.
