For many folks, it feels like they’re out of the job market–unless they win the Gold Medal in their career field at this year’s Olympics. It’s true that a person needs to be competitive to find work these days, but not necessarily a champion in their field.
There’s room for all types if you know where to look. Over 65 percent of jobs today are in small businesses, even start-ups, not in the big old corporations that used to employ people by the thousands.
So start knocking on doors at the ‘Mom and Pop’ shops in your neighborhood–or look for them online. The pay and benefits may be less than you’d like, but the opportunities for advancement are wide open.
Match your skills to those you know will help grow a new business. Then, go out and sell yourself as just the person ABC Company needs to get to Z.
What did you guys think about the figure skating in the Olympics last night? who else viewed it?
Refreshing views and interesting contribution. I have marked it to revisit later. Even if you are on the right track- you will get run over if you just sit there
