How to Find Work in a Financial Crisis: Resources and Tips

America is seeing the highest numbers of unemployed people in almost 100 years due to the COVID financial crisis. 

Here are a few steps you can take today that could pay dividends in the near future and set you up for future success in the job market.

a). Pull out Your Resume and Redo it

Most of your job search expenses are tax-deductible. Check with your accountant or even on the IRS website if you have questions about what qualifies as deductible.

b). Expand Your Skill Set

By learning about the position and knowing as much as possible, an employer will see your enthusiasm as a big asset that can overcome the lack of experience. 

c). Always Be on Your Best Behavior

Being on your best behavior is important as someone you meet casually may hold the key to your next position.

Establish or Re-Establish Your Network

The biggest, single source of new jobs has always been networking, yet few people do it regularly.
