Finding a Job in Today's Economy

One of the reasons I am now able to post more blogs is because, unfortunately, I recently got laid off. It's not a surprise with today's economy, but it still is a shock when you get called for a "special personal meeting" with a supervisor you've never met and told that you are no longer needed.

The first week or so I just took off to get my mind in order, but soon enough I was hitting the job searching trail hard and have come across a few good tools that definitely helped me, so I figured I'd share with everyone. One of the best sites out there is Employment Crossing. If you are looking for Career & Job Opportunities or Employment Opportunities, this is definitely a site you should be visiting. They have a lot of jobs but, more importantly, have jobs and opportunities that I would actually be able to compete for. They have a 7 DAY Free Trial going on now, so if you are in the same situation as me I would definitely recommend it. Regardless of where you live they have Employment Opportunities that you can take advantage of. The best part is that it’s not based on public boards, so you don’t have to deal with all the spam and shady job postings that ask you for personal information but they don’t actually have a job position to fill.

Good luck with the job hunt, and I will keep you all updated as I try to get something where I am happy and gainfully employed!
