Increasingly, more and more people are seeking a greater level of flexibility and a better work/life balance in their jobs. In the quest for these coveted work benefits, many people are shunning traditional 9-to-5 roles in favor of part-time opportunities.

Chat Takeaways:

  • How to evaluate if job sharing is possible for your position, and if it's a good fit for you personally
  • How to introduce & apply the idea to your workplace
  • Tips to prepare for & avoid the more common mistakes made when job sharing
