Career dads and non-parents seeking flexible work arrangements are more than welcome to apply for any job listing on CareerMums.

Do all job listings have to exhibit some employment flexibility?
The key to this market segment is employment flexibility so it is advised. For example, your job may provide flexibility with working hours. So rather than working from 9am to 5pm, you may offer the opportunity to work from 8am to 4pm. If a job does not mention flexibility, always ask.
