How can we help you during this time?

The last few weeks have created unprecedented levels of stress. We’re working from home, worried about illness and our loved ones and encountering empty supermarket shelves. School and "normal" has been cancelled. At Fairygodboss, we introduced a mandatory work from home policy to ensure the safety and health of our employees and their families, and help mitigate the spread of COVID-19. And from the sounds of it, many in this community are in the same boat. I am so thankful for all of your support and inspiration at this time. We at FGB want to continue supporting you during this isolating and challenging time so let us know how we can help. I encourage you to visit our virtual events page (under "Resources" in the site nav) to learn about upcoming virtual recruiting events and other professional development programming. In that section, we also have articles by experts in our community about how to manage all the change in our personal and professional lives. If you’re on the job search, it can feel even more challenging and scary. But good news: Our employer partners are still hiring, and they want to meet you. Head over to fairygodboss.com/new-features to learn more about our professional profiles, and how you can get a competitive edge in landing your dream job. We’ll be unveiling new features in the coming weeks to make it even easier to apply and connect with recruiters. We want to hear from you and we’re in this together. Be well, everyone!

My workplace is setting up virtual birthday celebration for a colleague, virtual game event and a virtual yoga time.

I just found your new Navigating The New Normal group! I find it very helpful so far during this time. Here's the link for FGB'ers interested in joining. https://fairygodboss.com/groups/SkJLPnk8L/

When you say " partners" - does this mean you have companies that will specifically look at resumes from FGB members? LinkedIn says recruiters are still hiring. Yes, they are still working but for me - two recruiters got back to me on Monday that I didn't get the jobs. I have 2 more jobs but everything is on hold. Advice?

Hey there! Yes, we do. We are working with a handful of companies to launch the Fairygodboss professional profile and quick apply features. You can learn more about it here: https://fairygodboss.com/new-features. It's a great way to get noticed and stand out to recruiters who are looking to hire more women! Let us know if you have questions.

God bless FGB. Just to share with everyone a bit of perspective. I am anxious and worried about getting a job. I ask my son what's wrong? He says " my soul hurts". His is thinking of others while I fret about my own challenges. That was an eye opener for me. Thx to all the supportive women in this group!!!

Trying to figure out how to pay bills if office is closed. All the "assistance packages" talked about in DC seemed to be aimed at corporate bail-outs; guess they're still figuring on the trickle-down effect for the rest of us. SMH

I am in a critical position at the office and we are in the supply chain. I cannot work from home and it is scary to have to be here every day, being exposed to many people from outside our office. I am grateful for those not recognized who are there every day besides the health care workers. Supply chain, grocery and drug stores, truckers and restaurant workers, airport employees and all of the support staff for these folks. I am broadening my prayers for safety to include some of the forgotten heroes. Hang in there folks!

Carrie! Thank you for all you are doing to keep society as normal as possible during this time. You're so right -- supply chain, grocery and drug store workers, truckers, airport employees, healthcare workers and so many more are amazing, and I am thankful for all the you and others are doing! Hang in there and stay healthy :)

Stay health, FGB'ers! If you're feeling isolated, we have a lot of virtual programming coming up, including a recruiting event, and will have even more in the coming days, so please check them out. Personally, I've been scheduling virtual hangouts with my friends and taking walks to keep my sanity (while staying away from others!). If you have any other tips, please share!

@Mary Pharris - I totally agree with scheduling virtual dates with friends. I have a virtual coffee scheduled later this week and have scheduled some for the next couple of weeks as well since it will probably be a while before things go "back to normal".

Thank you! I for one am so thankful for this community, especially now. I am isolating at work and it's so wonderful to know that there is an uplifting and positive group of women out there who get it. I'm also appreciative of the opportunity FGB gives me to share my expertise in diversity, equity, and inclusion in higher education. I've had some great conversations here and look forward to many more! Stay healthy everyone. Wash your hands! <3
