What’s on Your Resume?
The competition is getting stiffer as we get deeper
into this highly technological 21st century economy. To keep ahead
of the curve and be better able to compete in this economy, it is imperative
that you maintain a strong resume, as the competition for good jobs will become
even greater. Getting work experience and job training is critical, especially
for our young people who will need a strong resume for future jobs, housing,
credit, etc. It’s not too late to get the Economic Skills that you will need to
compete effectively in this economy. In addition to colleges there are also,
adult education schools, career centers, and other help available. Get Up and
Do It!
Although many people confess to wanting to get ahead
economically, some may be deceiving themselves and running away from the truth
and missing the message. A large number
of middle class jobs-paychecks are gone
forever due in part to the Wall Street derivatives meltdown. Many jobs now are
part time at or near the minimum wage, as employers choose to keep their
expenses (especially medical expenses) within a known range. This was a rude
awakening to many young people, who went to college and got a degree (but no
job skill) only to find out that they had to settle for a low paying job for
now. The biggest thing many got from college was a large student loan debt that
cannot be repaid with the low paying jobs they are stuck with.
Many economically depressed neighborhoods are
becoming even more depressed as wages are lower now for so many people. Some
are waiting for things to get better before they get back into the job market
in search of a better paying job. But
this may be a fatal mistake, as the workers who took the lower paying jobs this
year will have an additional year of work experience next year. They will be
able to show on their resume that they have multiple years of work stability,
and have a stronger resume.
Households with 3 minimum wage workers may have a
middle class household income of $30.00 an hour
(3 x $10.00) in many areas. The household will have a stronger
application for housing, credit, etc. As a group the productive household can
move on up the economic ladder more quickly than one individual alone with a
low paying job.
GET UP AND DO IT!
We shall all be rewarded according to our works (labour). Psalm 62:12,
St. Matthew 16:27, I Corinthians
3:8, Revelation 20:12, 22:12.
Stay in school and utilize career centers,
continuing education, job training, etc. and acquire the Economic Skills that
are in demand in the economy, and obtain a higher paying job. Some big
corporations may also train you with a skill more so than some colleges where
you may end up with a degree (but no economic skills). Don’t remain on the
bottom of the economic ladder as everyone walks on the bottom. Trying to
compete in this 21st century technological economy with no skill is
like trouble going down the road looking for somewhere to happen. This
generation must face the issue head on, we cannot keep running away from the
truth and missing the message.
