Career aspirations - be more flexible
Unemployment statistics this week reached a record 2.4 million in the UK and are projected to rise to 3 million next year. If you are one of those unlucky statistics it is all the more important to ensure that you find work as soon as possible in order to maintain not only your income but also your skills level. The government is maintaining the recession is now coming to an end "as the rate of job losses is falling" yet as we know with these statistics published this week it is going take years for a reversal of the employment graph.
It is very important that unemployed jobseekers become more flexible toward their career and salary expectations and if necessary think of even relocating in order to find work. It is also important that if at all possible you maintain your work experience by accepting temporary roles in the meantime. If you cannot find permanent or temporary work why not broaden or increase your skills through further education or a course or even maintain the skills by accepting voluntary work. If at all possible it is advisable that your CV does not have unemployment gaps.
It is also imperative that you check and double check your CV as this is the essential key for you to be invited for interview and therefore find work. If you need assistance with your CV or a second opinion why not use a professional CV writing service.
