for Employers

Job searching is a full-time job. Between researching employers online and networking to filling out applications and prepping for interviews, it can easily eat up 40+ hours a week. But as much work as it is to land a new job, it’s when you start one that the hard work really begins.

While the unemployment rate declined in May, there are still 15.2 million more people who are out of work and actively looking for jobs since February. If you’re a job seeker, that means you’ll most likely be facing increased competition for fewer available positions. Admittedly, not the most encouraging position to be in.

If you’re a job seeker in this labor market, it’s hard not to get discouraged.

This unusually high unemployment means that the job market is going to be even more competitive going forward.

In these uncertain times, with unemployment rising, please be encouraged. You can get through this difficult time.
