Job Market
Saturday, December 20th, 2008The United States has overwhelming voted in favor of the Democrats this election. Indeed, the country was looking for change. Usually after an election there is a surge in the market place and an increase in jobs. Here’s to hoping it’s a big surge. There are thousands of people looking for jobs, including many of my friends.
One friend recently learned that his employer has decided to close their doors because of bankruptcy. Wait, it gets better. Not only will he be unemployed, but his company only gave him three days notice. Three days notice! He is now faced with an interesting decision; does he look for a job in his current field or take a leap of faith and go for something new? He’s considering going back to school to gain more skills so he can find a more rewarding job next time.
