Just like the Jonny Rivers song “Where have all the flowers gone long time passing….” Where have all the jobs gone? So you’ve graduated with that new degree and looking to get a good paying job finally – actually have some money; think again.
So today the job loss report was released and shows that job loss is slowing. The report showed that last month the economy shed 247,000 jobs, which was less than expected. This brings national reported unemployment down to 9.4%. (Unemployment in June was 9.5% and 9.4% in July this means unemployment improved even though more jobs were lost- which only means that people are starting to stop looking for work.)The media has portrayed this in a very positive sense, but that fact we lost 247,000 jobs this month isn’t good. This means we are still on the down slide and still losing jobs.
Today’s job market is beyoned competitive, it’s overwhelmed with canidates. You have to be better prepared than ever to land a job in this market. Follow these pointers and you may just land that job.
