Quintessential
Careers and a cadre of bloggers and writers emphasize bright spots in the
“jobless recovery” as they mark second annual Job Action Day.
While the economy is showing signs of recovery, indications
that the recovery will continue to be “jobless” casts a pall over hopes for a
full bounceback. Job Action Day (http://www.jobactionday.com), the second
annual event spearheaded by Quintessential Careers, addresses the jobless
recovery by spotlighting promising areas in which the unemployed and other
job-seekers may find opportunities.
“The idea is that job-seekers can take plenty of action
steps right now – today – to move forward in their careers, even if they’re
unemployed and have been for some time,” said Quintessential Careers Founder
and Publisher Dr. Randall S. Hansen. “We established Job Action Day last year
as a day for job-seekers pummeled by the economic meltdown to take control of
their careers and initiate action,” Hansen said. “Where last year shock, fear,
and paralysis may have inhibited action, this year, the gloom of prolonged
unemployment may be de-motivating job-seekers.”
