It seems like some quality employers are hiring, or rumored to be hiring soon.

Upon updating and customizing the resume for each of the employers, it has been, or will be submitted, while crossing my fingers. Steady, gainful employment would be a very good thing.

It is odd, this is the longest that I have been unemployed since I started working. It is not something I am used to, or desire.

With Las Vegas maintaining its iron grip on the top of our nation’s unemployment statistics, my job search continues. There are opportunities out there, the trick is to draw hiring managers’ attention away from other applicants. That is proving to be quite a challenge.  So many qualified potential employees are out there, we are a crowd filled with talent, making it more difficult for employers to weed out candidates.

Gone are the days of sifting through piles of unqualified resumes, trying to find that one  perfect employee.

Thousands of us are hoping for a shift in the local economy, while working to draw positive attention to ourselves. Once employed, we will all contribute more money to local businesses, causing employers to have enough business to hire more workers.
