We read daily that unemployment figures are up across the country and that includes Milwaukee and Wisconsin. You can't open the newspaper without seeing headlines on job loss, unemployment and prominent companies laying off employees.
Much of the information is true and we are certainly going through challenging times, but all this negativism can also be misleading and sometimes, unnecessarily discouraging.
There's no doubt that UWM seniors need to gear up for this challenging market. When times are tough, people always have to summon new strength and strategies to be successful. Working smarter and harder is necessary. Nothing new about that.
This podcast will hopefully bring some objectivity to your job seeking attitude and build confidence for a successful transition from UWM to your first job.
