Good news is always welcome.
As Technology Needs Grow, One Sector Has No Shortage of Jobs
I believe this. I wonder how many people are doing the same thing.
Job seekers putting health benefits first
Let’s hope so…
White House: Health, green jobs growing quickly
I find this a little surprising, but understandable. Have any of you done this?

Happy Monday!

About Anthony Balderrama

Anthony Balderrama writes about hiring trends, workplace issues and job search tactics for CareerBuilder.com and its blog The Work Buzz. He was born and raised in Dallas (115° degrees isn’t hot!) before moving to Chicago (-23° isn’t cold!). He studied creative writing, therefore everything he writes is usually cut in half once he realizes he spent 400 words just on the intro. He knows that looking for a job and dealing with co-workers are not always fun activities, and reading about them is even less thrilling. That’s why he’ll take any opportunity he can to mention his favorite TV show or band in an article. Basically Anthony’s doing whatever he can to avoid hate mail.
