Be a Participant – Path Forward

Are you ready to restart your career after caregiving – whether it’s taking care of a child, family member, or yourself? Path Forward offers returning professionals the opportunity to return to work at companies that appreciate the skills they offer, the perspective they provide, and the contributions they can make.

We partner with companies to create paid 16-week mid-career return to work opportunities, open to women and men who have at least 5 years of professional experience and have been out of the paid workforce for two or more years for caregiving purposes.

Path Forward’s hiring partners are now taking applications for 2021 returnships in Boston, the Chicago Metro Area, Denver, the DC Metro Area, the Greater Los Angeles Area, Nashville, the New York Metro Area, Ottawa, Canada, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Seattle. Remote opportunities also available.

We’ll be announcing even more opportunities and cities shortly. Sign up in the form to the right to be alerted as soon as new markets, partner companies, or job listings are added. View current returnship opportunities in:
