Last week we posted about green jobs and the general excitement and interest this sector is experiencing and we thought we&#8217;d follow up with some further discussion about the state of green.
Overall the unemployment rate is continuing to creep downward and currently standing at around 9.7%, according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics.  Oddly [...]]]></description>

As children we all probably had dreams of growing up to become doctors, or lawyers, or astronauts but as we grow older and begin to learn a bit about ourselves and the world, our careers dreams can and often change.  Sometimes that&#8217;s good, because we come to realize that some of  the hopes and dreams [...]]]></description>

Everybody&#8217;s talking about the green movement today; the trend toward more sustainable industrial and energy production practices and technology that we&#8217;re seeing continues to grow, although slowly, despite the continued economic downturn.  According to an article that appeared earlier this month in the Boston Herald, government watchdogs are concerned that economic stimulus money might be [...]]]></description>

A few weeks ago we published a post on how to find summer interns for your business, written, of course, from the employer&#8217;s perspective. Just a couple of days ago, the Wall Street Journal put out an article with advice for those looking to land one of those sought after internships.

Last week we wrote about the apparent trend of avoiding hiring unemployed applicants, which has been trickling through the blogosphere and sparking quite a discussion.  According to this article on a blog at bnet.com, however, the original source of the ad has removed the requirement.  The article goes on to make several good points, both [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s bad enough to find oneself unemployed in good times—and everyone knows these are not such good times—and even worse to be out of work in an economy that&#8217;s taken a nose dive.  We came across an article so outrageous we simply had to put up a post about it.  Can you imagine an employment [...]]]></description>

Yeah, everyone&#8217;s done it:  called in to work on some day when you weren&#8217;t really sick.  For whatever reason, you just didn&#8217;t feel like going to work that day.  Maybe your kid had a soccer tournament, or your wife was near-death&#8217;s-door-sick, or maybe you just couldn&#8217;t put off getting those extra five levels in World [...]]]></description>

In a down economy, interns can make a whole lot of sense &#8211; you can evaluate and groom interns to be permanent full-time employees with little risk (read: low wages or even free, school [...]]]></description>
