FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -------------------------- Of interest to editors/authors covering: Employment, Human Resources, Business and Finance McKenzie Scott Reports Six Things Job Seekers Need to Remember in a Down Economy DENVER, CO - May 14, 2003 /PRnetwire.com/ -- There are six things job seekers would do well to remember in a down economy," says Bob Schrier, SVP in San Diego for McKenzie Scott, the firm that offers a variety of technical and personal resources for people seeking jobs over 75K. "If you keep these in mid, you'll develop a more positive perspective, and our experience shows that's a key factor in job hunting." According to Schrier, those six key factors include: 1. If there's 6% unemployment, that means 94% employment. 2. Every day, in thousands of companies, new jobs are being created. 3. Even in down times, there are over 10,000 growth companies hiring. 4. Hiring you might be a means of cost cutting for an employer. You might win a job at $90,000, a 20% increase for you, replacing someone who had been paid $130,000. 5. The market for your talents is not the same as the market for anyone else's. Everyone's job market is unique. It is the demand for their particular set of talents, at the particular time they are searching, in the particular companies they target. "Even in the worst of times," Schrier observed, "each day thousands of companies face new problems and opportunities that existing staff cannot handle, so jobs are created, and thousands of people are hired to fill them. You could be one of them, if you persist." McKenzie Scott is the nations leading firm in providing technology and team resources to assist professional, managerial, and executive job seekers.
