For a new job, look elsewhere...

If you attended our Back Work Event last month, then you know that Debra Wheatman gives great advice. She's quoted today in a CNBC article, Life After Wall Street Layoff: Different Job, Less Money:

"Of course there are jobs," says Deb Wheatman, Career Expert at Vault, a web based resource for career management and job search information. "You just need to be very diligent and focused to identify opportunities and pursue them and close the deal."

She also reminds people that, "Between jobs, people feel like they are in limbo. When you are laid off, your perception of yourself changes. People need to be confident and put away their fears. That would come across in an interview, so everyone needs to build themselves up and be strong."
