CBE Administrative Assistant
Is the job you've been searching for on the Hot Job List or the Current Job List -- or the Obsolete Job List?
There are very few positions advertised these days for newspaper reporter/editor, a job I
loved for years, the last 28 in Daytona Beach. It's bad enough getting laid off, but even worse when all newspapers in the country have cut back on employees, pages, news and benefits. Some say newspapers are a dying breed. But I still enjoy lying back in my recliner reading my local paper.If your profession is on the way out, that's when you have to reinvent yourself, write multiple resumes for multiple jobs, practice for interviews with diverse companies. And you may be as lucky as I was to get a job in a completely different field.
At the Center for Business Excellence/One-Stop Career Centers, where I am currently employed, we say, "It's a full time job looking for a job." We are fortunate to have three One-Stop Centers in Volusia and Flagler Counties that provide a myriad of services for the unemployed. For more information, go to http://www.onestops.com/ But I digress. How do you determine what's the newest hot job or hot career and are you qualified? Most of these lists are worthless. Instead, it's time to look for a realistic job.
Here are seven reasons to ignore these lists of hot jobs.
