North Coast Hot Jobs Nov. 28

Hello job seekers. If you find any links that don't send you where they should, then let me know. Here is the link to this week's North Coast Hot Jobs listing, https://www.scribd.com/document/332710645/North-Coast-Hot-Jobs-Nov-28

Today's topic is networking. Not all jobs available are posted. It is not uncommon for employers to ask their current employees, friends, colleagues or other individuals if they know someone that could fill an upcoming vacancy. Networking is very important. Put the word out to people you know that you are looking for work. They just might know someone, who knows someone, etc. Having someone on the inside vouch for you can be of immense help and could bypass some employment hurdles.

If you know of any Alaskan Native or Native American that has physical or mental disabilities and is having a hard time looking for work, ask them to contact me at 360-460-7549. We have two counselors that could help you.

Have a good one.

Here is the latest unemployment rates for some select counties for Sept. 2016 in Washington state according to the Employment Security Department.

Clallam 7.4%
Jefferson 7.3%
Grays Harbor 8.2%
Kitsap 5.7%
King 4.0%
Pierce 6.0%
Snohomish 4.3%

Washington state is 5.6% and the U.S. is at 5.0% as of Sept. 2016. When the unemployment rate hits around 5.0%, salaries start to increase because organizations want to keep their employees and not let other companies take them due to less qualified unemployed people available in the area.

If you know of any Alaskan Native or Native American that has physical or mental disabilities and is having a hard time looking for work, ask them to contact me at 360-460-7549.

Hello job seekers. Sorry there was no job listing last week. I was out of town. If you find any links that don't send you where they should, then let me know. Here is the link to this week's North Coast Hot Jobs listing, https://www.scribd.com/document/331110797/North-Coast-Hot-Jobs-Nov-15

On the north coast of the Olympic Peninsula, many holiday jobs appear during this time of the year. These seasonal jobs can be lucrative, but last only during the holidays. Businesses such as Walmart and UPS do more business this time of the year. If you are out of work, this might be something to tide you over for a few months. I did it before. So, apply now.

If you know of any Alaskan Native or Native American that has physical or mental disabilities and is having a hard time looking for work, ask them to contact me at 360-460-7549.

When considering a job opportunity, you can't just look at the salary. Job benefits play a big role in the long and short term job satisfaction of the employee. You have to look beyond the basic mandated offerings, such as minimum wage, disability and workers compensation. Benefits such as paid holidays, sick, vacation and maternity leave, meal and work breaks and health care are a large part of what keeps an employee happy. Working for some organizations, such as non-profit organizations, do not supply all benefits like health care to it's employees, because they don't have the funding. Be fully aware of all benefits of a job, not just salary, before you accept a job offer.
