March 14, 2012 - Pasadena, CA — Since the start of the recession, young workers have been bearing the brunt of bad news. Fresh out of college and loaded with student loan debt, young people have had a terrible time finding employment. However, current job numbers are showing a positive change with positions filled by people aged 25 to 34 increasing by 116,000.
These stats from the Labor Department are promising and fall right in line with the work that EmploymentCrossing.com does. New positions for young people are on the rise, but the key to success is finding them. Unless a person has a connection to a business through a friend or relative it's a difficult slog to dig through job ads to find something to apply to.
EmploymentCrossing.com makes this process simple by allow young workers to view open positions from companies all over the U.S. These jobs are pulled from all the job sites and directly from employer websites, giving workers an inside look at available positions that might not be so widely publicized. Positions that aren't widely publicized get fewer applications, which provide workers with a greater chance of getting the job.
With the economy on an upswing, younger workers have reason to be optimistic. But finding work is still a slog, so it's advisable to use every tool at one's disposal. That includes sites like EmploymentCrossing.com, to give one's resume and applications a leg up on the competition.
EmploymentCrossing.com was founded by Harrison Barnes in 2008. Based in Pasadena, CA, the site serves as the main center for numerous job sites and lists positions from every major industry in every major city.
