I am so thankful that I’ve been able to stay home with my two little girls. As of late, I’m very thankful for the way the economy has been going for the past 5+ years. I’m not going to lie, I have struggled with how things are looking.
The good news is that the unemployment rate is down to what it was pre-recession. The bad news is that it is still over 5% and even higher for some of the lower-skilled jobs.
If you’re looking for a great “jobs”-based job, you don’t have to be a software developer to start your life. Most people do have the skills to handle the work, but there are also many great candidates to start your career with. They will do well in the market and the economy for a decent wage. But for some job seekers, your chances are slim.
To be sure, there are many great jobs available to those that are qualified. Many of the jobs on the unemployment line require a high school diploma or GED. However, depending on the field you choose, you may have to move schools to get the skills needed to perform the job.
Most of the jobs that are on the unemployment line are in the private sector. The private sector unemployment is higher than the government unemployment.
In other words, the private sector is for people who can’t be employed in the government sector. The government unemployment is for people who can’t be employed in the private sector.
The private sector unemployed may be a good thing, but at the same time, the government unemployed are often the hardest to get a job in. Private sector unemployment rates are much higher than government unemployment, for two reasons: First, people who can work in the private sector tend to earn a higher wage than people who can’t. Second, the private sector is not always as lucrative as the government sector, at least not yet.
The good news, for those looking for help, is that they get a fair share of the unemployment rate. We’re not actually paying any of the cost of living in the private sector.
If you’re one of the lucky folks who doesn’t have any connections and don’t need the work, then it’s hard to fault the private sector. Private sector employment is a bit more plentiful because it’s not always as easy to get a job in the government sector.
In the case of the state unemployment, the state is able to claim back workers when they lose their jobs due to the recession. You can also look at the unemployment rates for the private sector, which are much higher than the state statistics.
