Leave no rock unturned

When the economy is tough and jobs are hard to find there are many things you can do to make yourself appeal more to employers. But if that isn't working because you cannot even find job posting to respond to, you may have to look at widening your search. Consider working two part time jobs while you continue to look, then work very hard at both and hope that one part time job considers making you a full time employee. Don't think your pool of open jobs is limited to what is posted online or only stores that put "Now Hiring" signs up. Don't assume that there is no work just because it doesn't jump into your lap.

When the economy is booming, people look at jobs for what's best based on salary, health care plans and vacation days. Now that jobs are scarce, it's companies that look at employees for what they have to offer. So remember to convey to the company that you are worthy of their investment and that if they hire you, you will help their bottom line.
