Mic Man Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 i was out of work for a couple months, but i got 4 GOOD job offers before choosing the job im currently in- so i dont see how hard ppl are finding it to find work, from my experience. Although i do have a degree and have 110% confidence in my ability, which may play a part.My advice: look to the public sector, alot of central government, and police are hiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladerunner Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I tell you this.This is not a recession, it will be a depression and there will be people in the developed world here and abroad starving.Them predictions there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There ARE jobs, however, employers are spoilt for choice / overwhelmed due to the number of applicants..This causes applications not to be processed properly.In a lot of cases, they wont even dignify you with a response which must do nothing for someones confidence..My advice is cliche yes but keep ya head up....be persistent..Concentrate on why YOU are perfect for whatever job you apply for and make sure your CV highlights these points directly.. 60% of CV's are full of irrelevant sh*t, presented in an overcomplicated format..disclaimer: 47% of facts are made up and manipulated to help prove someones pointBest of luck with all applications..

Guest Logster Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 theres no way i could lose my job at the momentmake sure you have credit card/mortage repayment insurance. cuz the last thing u need is to lose your job then lose your home, or start mounting interest on your cards. the insurance will protect you.As someone that deals with debt all the time I can tell you NOW that PPI on credit cards is a pile of bs. It is missold to the majority of people and when they wanna claim it they realise they've wasted loads of money over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lemons Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 We've just been told that the whole company has to take a days unpaid holiday every month for the rest of the year.Basically a 3% pay cut, but we get 9 days off extra.Meh.It's probably the best way of handling it - no redundancies as of yet.

Afroman Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 My bro got made redundant early this year. There is me thinking he had the most stable job (It manager). The company got shut down.Same situation with my sis. But it was a blessing in disguise for her cuz she started her own business (recruitment agency)I know a few heads that have moved back to their parents yard due to redundancy.from my experience redundancy is one of the worst feelings ever. You feel WASTE. locking everyone off. My current job seems stable (so far)& flexible. I took a major pay cut from the previous. But it gives me an opportunity to do my own thing on the side.till sh*t improves am not too keen. But I agree public sector is the way forward.Its frightening when you see folks the age of your dad with soo much professional experience handing you CV's for ANYTHING...
