Right now times are very uncertain, very stressful and even a bit frightening. The COVID-19 outbreak has not only caused a health crisis but an economic crisis, as well. In a matter of days, millions of people found themselves suddenly out of work. Millions more are weeks or even days away from losing their jobs, and millions more still are left uncertain about whether their companies will last through this crisis.  While the numbers are bleak and you are probably anxious, there is good news. Companies all across the country are hiring right now and many companies still have long-term plans to hire throughout the year. That means that the best thing for you to do right now is to continue your job search, despite your anxiety. Follow these tips to keep your job search on track through COVID-19. 

We've all been there. Searching for a new job can be stressful, frustrating, and lonely work. Whether you're in a position you're no longer happy with or breaking into the market for the first time, a job search can feel like a 10-mile slog uphill with the wind in your face. You've sent out dozens of resumes, maybe even had an interview or two, but nothing's coming of it. You're starting to feel stuck and discouraged. You wonder whether you'll ever get called on a job. Good news: It doesn't have to be that way! 

When looking for a new job, it can feel like searching for the proverbial needle in a series of haystacks.

Where do you even start to begin the process? 

It can be difficult, often frustrating, and lonely work that involves lots of effort that can feel like it's going nowhere. But working with a staffing agency, like LeadingEdge Personnel, can help make the process a lot less stressful and a lot more fulfilling, and it can cut the distance between you and a new job considerably.
