New Forum Promises to Deliver with Job Search and Career Advice

Freehold resident Marc LeVine has created a Facebook Job Search and Career Advice Forum to offer help to job seekers and career searchers

Millions of people lose their jobs every month. If you are the one who has just lost your job, knowing you aren’t alone isn’t much consolation. The good news is that millions of people also land new jobs every month, and you will join that group, too!

Not having a clear target for that next job is a major roadblock for a successful job search. Jumping on to every job board and applying for every job seems to be an automatic response, but that response is usually an exercise in futility.

Step back from the situation for a few hours or a day to look at the “big picture” in your career. You will save yourself much future frustration and wasted time by spending some time looking at your career from a different perspective than day-to-day survival.
