Recently, Cosmopolitan Magazine, otherwise known as Planned Parenthood’s pimps, published yet another article promoting Planned Parenthood. This time, they interviewed a human resources manager. The reason? To give people advice on how to get hired at a Planned Parenthood facility.
My first thought was, “Wow. This is pathetic.” My second thought was, “Wow. They must be desperate for employees.”
I worked for a Planned Parenthood facility for eight years. I was the clinic director, so I was also responsible for hiring and firing employees. Human resource work was a daily part of my job.
This Cosmopolitan article was written in a Q&A format. I found some of Planned Parenthood’s answers to be a little less than honest. So, since I worked for Planned Parenthood for so long and ran the inside of their abortion and family planning clinics I thought I would offer more thorough and honest answers to people who may be seeking employment with the organization.
First, you should know that Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider in the United States alone, not to mention they have established other Planned Parenthood locations across the globe. This means that they are deliberately taking the lives of more people than any other entity in our country and in others across the globe. They say that it takes a certain amount of “passion” to work inside their organization, but really it only takes willful ignorance and the ability to pretend that you are helping women by killing their children.
Now for the questions.
1. What qualities do you look for in every candidate?
Planned Parenthood is looking for vulnerable people, primarily women, to work for them. They REALLY love single moms because they are desperate to put food on the table in order to make ends meet. This category of prospective candidate is typically willing to do almost anything to take care of their children, even if it means compromising their own morals.
Planned Parenthood is also interested in finding people that will stay long term with their organization because let’s be honest, former Planned Parenthood employees are incredibly willing to reveal all of the organizations corrupt practices, and that is REALLY annoying for them.
All this Planned Parenthood is interested in is finding timid people who will keep their mouths closed about the dirty things they witness there. Timidity is also important because if you do ever decide to leave, they will send a really threatening letter to your home stating that they will take you to court if you ever talk about what you have seen since working with their organization. They need that letter in order to scare you into being silent.
2. How often do you hire new people?
Planned Parenthood has one of the highest turnover rates in this country. So, the answer to that question is basically all of the time. People are constantly coming and going like a revolving door. You might be hired at a clinic, but after the first six months you could end up working with an entirely different group of people. So, I hope you’re not looking to get into this job to make friends. As soon as you get to know someone, they will leave. It’s a challenge to retain people when your job is to kill babies for a living.
3. What do you expect candidates to know about the company before an interview?
Honestly, you don’t have to know anything and you’re definitely not expected to know anything. They are so desperate for employees that they will usually just hire you right there on the spot. They can’t really take the risk being too picky anyway with their high turnover rates.
4. Where do you recruit candidates?
Planned Parenthood, being the bottom feeders they are, thrive off of vulnerable women. They usually do the majority of their recruiting from college campuses. If they can convince you to drop out of college and work for them full-time, then that is even better because you don’t actually need any type of degree to work for Planned Parenthood anyway (we will get to that in a minute). They also do a lot of recruiting in poor neighborhoods. Earlier I mentioned that they really like preying on single moms. They post bright colored ads in laundromats, community centers, WIC offices, Medicaid offices, etc. Wherever vulnerable women go, so too is where Planned Parenthood will be to try to sniff them out.
5. How do you use social media for recruiting potential employees?
They don’t. They only use social media to promote their false agenda and of course to promote all of these other groups that love abortion as much as they do. They won’t talk about abortion at all on social media. It’s all part of their game. It would be bad news for them if their followers decided to wake up and realize that Planned Parenthood is really only interested in pushing and selling abortion. Instead, they post about benign topics such as obtaining tax funded birth control or getting tested for STDs. But remember, according to Planned Parenthood’s booklet, “Healthy, Happy and Hot”. If you have an STD, even HIV, you totally don’t have to concern yourself with disclosing your status to anyone you plan to have sex with (See page 3).
6. What types of jobs are available for recent graduates?
Don’t worry, there are plenty of jobs to choose from. Let’s see, you could be trained by them on how to normalize abortion to women who come in for “options counseling.” You could be trained to become a POC (products of conception) technician, which consists of piecing the parts of aborted babies back together to ensure women don’t get a fatal infection.
You could also be trained on billing Medicaid for fraudulent charges and other federal and state programs. You can definitely be taught how to sell abortion better than a slick-haired used car salesman can sell you a clunker. You’ll even learn all of the fun lingo that comes with working in an abortion clinic. For example, the staff always jokes that POC stands for “parts of children” and the freezer where we stored all of the dead babies was called “the nursery.”
You will even be shown the way to completely dodge the risks of abortion, stating that they don’t want to “scare women” by revealing all of the facts to them. You will also be taught how to conveniently fail to mention all of the side effects from the hormonal birth control that they shove down their patient’s throat. They can train you the way to insert an IUD on their patients to cause an early abortion.
You can even learn from them how to fudge your inspection logs because it would cause a mess for them if the inspectors discovered that they’re not actually sterilizing the instruments properly. You could be trained by them on how to go into the schools and teach kindergarteners graphic sexual positions using stuffed animals. You could even have them train you on how to perform medical procedures that is pretty illegal for you to be performing without a license.
I mean, the list is endless. If you want to learn how to completely disrespect the intelligence and integrity of women then Planned Parenthood is the place for you!
7. Do you have an internship program?
Oh, yes. In fact, their internship programs are very important to Planned Parenthood. It’s the best way to brainwash young and vulnerable women into becoming robots for the cause of “reproductive health.” You only want to show interns a good time by feeding them pizza, taking them on bus trips that include tons of liquor, give them talking points so they can repeat them over and over again like a parrot, give them TONS of hot pink t-shirts (because let’s be honest, every gal loves hot pink), dress them up all professional-like and send them to the Capitol where they will walk around all day and do nothing (then you have to convince them that they just saved women’s rights), and finally, have them make up snazzy pro-choice chants, like “Hey, hey, mister, mister, Get your laws off my sister!”
But, let’s not show them the “real” Planned Parenthood and what they are really all about. They need these interns to see how “fun” Planned Parenthood is so they can share the good news and hot pink t-shirts with their friends!
8. Do most full-time positions require a specific degree?
No, of course not. This is Planned Parenthood, not some medical clinic. Oh, wait… it is a medical clinic. Well, they don’t concern themselves with the logistics pertaining to that. Licenses, certifications, and degrees only get in the way anyway. Not to mention that those kinds of people require more money and that is really inconvenient for their bottom line.
So, no. No degree needed to work at a Planned Parenthood facility. So, if you’re interested in performing ultrasounds on women, not a problem! You don’t even have to have a high school diploma to do that! They will provide some on the job training (that lasts about an hour) and then you’re all set to perform transvaginal ultrasounds on women who come in.
Do you want to draw blood? No certificate needed! Planned Parenthood is all about cutting out the middle-man regarding “health care”. You can just practice on your co-workers until you feel like you are “good enough” at sticking people.
Want to take on that highly regarded position of POC technician? Well, you will have to earn that. Not just anyone can piece baby parts back together. But, don’t worry because Planned Parenthood has more options for you like if you’re interested in working in the recovery room where you will listen to women sob after their abortion is complete. You definitely don’t need any sort of education.
Just keep your sight set on no one starting to hemorrhage or anyone that has a serious medical complication since you unqualified to be providing medical care. I’m sure they will eventually hear you screaming for a doctor once they turn the suction machine off, but whatever you do, just remember that you don’t call 911 at Planned Parenthood. That would be really bad press, especially with all of those anti-choice protestors outside. The abortion industry can’t have people thinking that abortion may actually be dangerous for women.
9. What types of questions do you typically ask in an interview?
They will ask how much you know about Planned Parenthood. They love it when people don’t know much about their organization. That gives them the opportunity to give you the information they want you to hear.
Basically, if you had enough coherency to show up to the interview and fill out the application by yourself, then the job is yours. No resume needed or experience needed. Heck, you can even say that you are prolife. They will still hire you with the promise that you won’t ever have to work “in the back,” but eventually they will break that promise once they see that you are more comfortable with abortion.
10. Is it okay to bring up salary?
Absolutely! Planned Parenthood has TONS of money, so make sure you aim high because killing babies for money brings in a huge profit; over half a billion dollars a year, to be more accurate. The other half a billion dollars they bring in comes from your tax money anyway! It’s totally acceptable to ask for some of that back in your hourly wage.
There’s also some other perks that they might not mention during the interview. If you happen to find yourself pregnant while working at Planned Parenthood, you can get a free abortion. That’s a savings of at least $400.
If you find out that you have contracted genital herpes, no worries. You can just illegally grab some pills from their back stash of medication. Don’t stress, everybody’s doing it. If they really didn’t want you to take it, they would lock up their meds like they are supposed to.
If they try to low ball you, just remind them that you know how much money they bring in every year. And, you can also let them know that Abby Johnson informed you about their $22 million dollar endowment that is just so happens to be sitting in the bank gaining more than a half a million dollars in interest every year. You can also let them know that a little birdy (named Abby Johnson) told you that Warren Buffet gives them over $23 million dollars a year to provide abortion services. It’s a great way to show them that you’re no dummy and they aren’t going to pull the wool over your eyes.
11. What’s a mistake people make in interviews all the time and don’t know it?
The biggest mistake you, or anyone you know, can make is showing up. This is NOT a place where you want to work. Unfortunately, it took me eight years to figure that out., but you can be smarter than me. You can decide that Planned Parenthood is a corrupt and disgusting organization that doesn’t deserve you before you even walk through their doors.
No one grows up wanting to work in the abortion industry. And, no matter how many pap smears they perform, the lives of the more than 327,000 innocent children that they killed only in the last year can never be replaced. The amount of people that have died at the hands of Planned Parenthood doesn’t even include the women they allow to die on their abortion tables. You deserve better than Planned Parenthood. You deserve better than abortion.
If you’re currently working in the abortion industry and want to leave, then please visit my website AbortionWorker. We can, and we will, help you leave.
Hi Abby,
I’m just a stay at home mom. I’m busy. My children are what I do, and I love what I do, and I’m happy about it. But because I am so busy, sometimes I feel like I am disconnected from other important things. More and more lately I’ve felt this nagging feeling that I should be doing more to stop abortion. I support life, and I take care of the lives in my home, but what can I do to be helping those other little souls that don’t have a home?
Anyway, like I said, I can’t get out and go and do so much at this time, but what CAN I do? What can I be doing right now? Am I supposed to be writing letters? To whom? About what? What can I REALLY do to REALLY help? I don’t want to just say I support life, I want to be actively helping.
Thanks,
Becca
Becca, I used to work at a pregnancy center and I’m a busy mom too. Your financial contributions keep the centers running, and helping women. If all you have is $10 a month that’s great. If everyone who cared did this, many thousands more women would get the care and free ultrasounds they need, empowering them to choose life and cancel that abortion appointment. check care-net.org for your nearest center.
How did you work there for "8 years" if you really couldn’t stand it and disagreed with it so much?
I agree with CeeCee. This is bogus propaganda and full of lies. What person of normal intelligence (and integrity) takes 8 years to figure out that they don’t want to work at a place that violates their principles so deeply?
FUCK YOU!!
No seriously, you don’t support women’s basic human rights…Please go live somewhere you don’t have any. OH WAIT we don’t have any here! Thank you for adding to the propaganda and myths of abortion. As a women, not supporting other women., you are the worst type of person. I would expect this ignorant message from a man, but a women, not OK. If you have any respect or dignity , you will delete this posting. This is harmful to young women. Thank god you do not work for PP. They are much better off without naive, uneducated employees like yourself hurting our basic human rights.
Why work for an organization for almost 10 years if you don’t agree with some of the services they provide? This has got to be some of the dumbest propaganda I’ve ever seen. Also,Becca one thing we can do as a country to prevent unwanted pregnancies is to demand comprehensive accurate sex education! We can lower teen pregnancy rates and abortions all together by just making sure young men and women have the knowledge they need in the first place.
Thanks for the tips! I’ve been preparing for an interview with PP scheduled for later this week, and it is apparent to me that this organization that advocates for the rights of women, and educates men, women, and children about sexual health, is in need of intelligent, committed individuals. Clearly, it’s important to have a strong sense of identity and confidence in what one values prior to working with such an organization, and I am sorry that you did not seem to have either throughout your career there; I can imagine that participating in an abortion must have been difficult. I don’t know that I agree with your method of processing your experience – it is, in my opinion, completely subjective, and discredits the knowledge you have of the organization – but it is common for individuals to swing from one end of a spectrum to the other until they really land on who they are and what they believe. We all do this, and we often do this based on the experiences we have in life. Please be kind to others and gracious to yourself as we all grow and change at our own individual paces. Please remember that organizations are simply a collection of people – of individuals – all growing and changing and becoming, as best we can from one day to the next.
Lol…anyone else come here legitimately seeking tips on getting a job at PPhood and leaving with more motivation than they came with?
You need to step away and take a look at the problem you have caused. You spoke as though you have insider info regarding the 14 yo rape victim. You have posted false info about her and her family’s living conditions. Why? What is your agenda? I’m pretty sure when this family is reunited they will go after you for all your slanderous statements. I hope they do. A terrible injustice has occurred and you come up with a false story for your own agenda. I am not sure how this benefits you, but rest assured the truth will prevail. As to your FB, why delete and block so many people asking you to tell the truth? You must be very busy with those keystrokes. Your credibility has been squashed and I pray you do the right thing and retract your statements that have hurt this family, Alabama and you. Abby Johnson, do the right thing
I’m not sure if any of the pro-choice commenters on here can see this or not, but I am writing specifically to them.
First off, I’m glad you’re here. This organization and much of the pro-life movement is very welcoming as they have been where you are – once very pro-choice.
Just because you disagree with what Abby is saying doesn’t mean it’s propaganda.
I believe, just like Abby, you want to work at Planned Parenthood because you want to help women’s health. I do too. I just don’t think sterilizing women and killing their children is the best way to go about it. Planned Parenthood really has an amazing marketing budget in which to spread the message about how much they "help" and "education" women and children, but there’s only so much make-up you can put on a pig.
If Planned Parenthood really offered comprehensive accurate sex education, it would promote and educate Natural Family Planning or Fertility Awareness Method. This method of family planning is just as effective as birth control, is pretty much free, and it comes with absolutely zero health risks or side effects. Planned Parenthood doesn’t and won’t support or encourage this method and doesn’t provide prenatal care or has no way of helping a couple who PLANS to be PARENTS. Why? Because these things are not profitable. Even though these are actually legitimate ways to PLAN PARENTHOOD. Women deserve better and they can find it at amazing places like FEMM (femmhealth.org). This organization and any of the doctors on this list (www.fertilitycare.org) will have more knowledge on the female reproductive system and all the health problems a woman can have & how to treat or cure them (rather than masking it with birth control) more than ANY healthcare professional at ANY Planned Parenthood EVER. I guarantee it!
The definition of healthcare is "the maintenance and improvement of physical and mental health, especially through the provision of medical services." – that’s IMPROVING health. Abortion is the only surgery that’s goal is to end a life instead of saving it. A doctor’s hippocratic oath is violated in an abortion "do no harm". Since pregnancy or fertility is NOT a disease but a healthy system, abortion and contraception are in their very nature, NOT healthcare.
If you consider Planned Parenthood health care, why do they continuously fight any bills that require them to have basic health care facility requirements like yearly inspections and hospital admitting privileges?
Would you also support a health clinic that once a month, rounds up orphan children and systematically murders them?
Planned Parenthood ends the lives of more than 6 million humans a year through abortions.
Health care is about fixing illnesses and help people live longer – abortion doesn’t fit the bill of health care, it never has & never will.
They target minority populations through abortion. They were founded by a racist woman who had a firm belief in birth control as eugenics – "weeding out the unwanted". Planned Parenthood has been charged with Medicaid fraud…you know, misusing our hard earned tax money. They don’t report sexual abuse (rape) of minors and send them back to their abusers. They lie to women about the hormonal methods they distribute. They don’t give women accurate information about abortion. They manipulate women and coerce them into having abortions…as if we don’t have the brain power to make our own decisions regarding our bodies. They intentionally withhold information from their patients. They impose abortion quotas and require their staff to ultimately become salespeople for abortions. Not to mention that they are the largest abortion provider in the U.S. and support killing an unborn child until the moment of birth. http://nypost.com/2015/08/03/planned-parenthoods-pathetic-3-percent-lie/
92% of pregnant women who seek services from PP will get an abortion.
There are no quotas for adoption or prenatal care, but there are quotas inside their clinics for abortions? Quotas that required them to sell abortions to vulnerable women.
When 94 percent of your prenatal services are abortions… and 33% of your income is from abortions… you try to hide that as much as possible by counting handing out a free condom as an equal service to abortion.
Do you know the story of Tonya Reaves? Planned Parenthood perforated her uterus during and abortion procedure and allowed her to bleed to death on their table, only to call an ambulance 5 hours after she started to hemorrhage.
http://www.operationrescue.org/archives/planned-parenthood-abortionist-evaded-blame-shifted-in-death-of-tonya-reaves-deposition-shows/
Planned Parenthood doesn’t provide any services for low income women that they couldn’t get somewhere else. Planned Parenthood has never saved anyone’s life. They may have provided a test that told you that you needed to get further cervical testing done…but you can get a pap smear at literally any Medicaid provider or FQHC (Federally Qualified Health Center). You can find any number of these real healthcare providers that supply non-violent healthcare for the whole family at getyourcare.org.
To the author of this comment, please go take high school biology again. To any readers, Planned Parenthood is a reliable source for information on women’s health. Abortions have lower death rates than vasectomies, and oral contraceptives are around 97% effective. Fertility awareness is much harder to implement and is only around 76-88% effective depending on irregularities in the menstrual cycle.
I don’t know who you are but thanks for the click-bait title on your article! That’s totally the way to change public opinion. And great job speeding misinformation and trying to smear an organization that SAVES LIVES! I’m sure as a former employee you’d know that PP also helps people who are low income with, not just sexual health and well-being, but general wellness as well. But yea, science is dumb and abortions are all about killing babies.
Abby,
Thank you for your honesty. I had the pleasure of attending an event you spoke at in Minot, ND. You speak truth. Keep the pace, girl. You have an important ministry.
Blessings!
Dear Abby,
Thank you for wasting my time with all the OPINIONS no one asked you for.
Ah – I clicked on this link because of the misleading title. Then realized it’s just another low IQ member of the God squad trying to prosthelytize. Perhaps if you were smarter or more educated, you would have chosen an employer that more closely represents your ignorant views.
This has got to be the dumbest thing I have ever read.
Dear Abby. You seem like a very angry person, full of bile. Whoever you are, you are unburdened by facts. Get help soon.
You sound mad ignorant. You’re shitting on people who wanna help women, you violated yourself cause you da said you worked there yet the people working there are "timid". Go fuck yourself this is the dumbest shit I’ve ever read you barely even answered the questions I couldn’t even finish the article.
Women should be aloud to choose whether or not they want a kid and it’s beautiful that someone can help be apart of that process. Don’t shit on that bitch.
Abby Johnson, you are a liar.
Just because of this article I’m going to apply for a position at my local Planned Parenthood. . . No sarcasm there.
Wow. What a horrible stupid POS you are. Have you NO critical thinking skills? Shame on you.
Wow. I can’t believe how awful some people are, and blind. If you have questions about why Abby was at Planned parenthood, maybe you should research instead of jumping to ridiculous and awful conclusions. Abby, you are amazing and strong, and I admire you deeply. I, too, was once prochoice and thought it was the best way to stand up for women’s rights. However, I have since realized that telling a woman the best thing for her is to kill her own child and convince the world that you are really doing something wonderful is the worst kind of lie.
There are millions of actual children (not fetuses) in this world who are alive and breathing that need critical help and services, but aren’t getting it. They suffer great pain and hardship, and everyday many of them die. Why don’t the anti-choice people focus on them? Because it’s much easier to judge and condemn pregnancy termination than it is to take care of an actual child. Think about this while you attempt to shame those that have their own reasons for making a difficult decision. And why don’t you adopt 10 or 20 unwanted kids while you’re at it. Pay for their medical, dental, etc. Pay for their food and shelter and college. Your lack of compassion and understanding for the already living appalls those of us with common sense.
Hi Abby,
I currently work in a PP clinic. I’m truly baffled that you have the gall to continue to lie, and lie, and lie. I guess you do get the last laugh, because I’m sure you make pretty good money now through spreading this nonsense. One of my personal favorites is your story about the alarm code spelling "BABY". Sweetie, we both know that we all choose our own individual codes. Your code also spelled "ABBY", but that story just wouldn’t sell the same! You are a deeply confused individual.
Sincerely,
A very timid and vulnerable employee. (Oh-wait! I have dual degrees and years of medical experience. Guess you must be lying again.)
