This news item deals with the ever changing job market and is designed to help people that are looking for jobs today and also for people who are looking to possibly make a career change in the near future.
As anyone who watched the recruitment market will no doubt have noticed, jobs today are somewhat more likely to be on a contract or temporary basis. Understandibly this can be somewhat troubling to anyone who has mostly been employed on a permanent basis previously, however in actual fact this is nothing to be afraid of.
Jobs today alas just aren’t always ‘for life’ anymore and therefore even if you’re employed on a permanent basis there is no 100 percent guarantee that your job will be permanent.
We suggest that a great way to look at jobs today is that even if the contract type being offered by the employer isn’t exactly what you might have wanted in an ideal world – is to consider a temporary or contract position to be a fantastic opportunity to ‘get your foot in the door’ and also to really find out about the employer to see how much you enjoy working there before you decide to stay with that company for a long time to them.
