Amid news of layoffs and a declining employment rate, what should we be doing to secure a place in the workplace? Career coach Daisy Wright of The Wright Career Solution says job seekers should make proactive choices now. Get your resume ready, take advantage of training opportunities at your current job and do a lot of networking. Get to know people within the company, as well as others in the field. Make sure people know who you are and what your skills are. She says many companies offer bonuses to employees if they successfully recommend someone before they even post a job. That’s one of the reasons jobseekers should learn how to network effectively. CHUM FM reporter Sara Konings spoke with Daisy Wright.
