The Great Resignation is a wake-up call for employers, but it's also an opportunity. The number of workers who say they're completely satisfied at work has soared in the past 20 years. Last year, 89 percent of Americans were completely or somewhat satisfied.

Transform your business culture so that it empowers employees to bring their whole selves to work as they contribute and lead.

New Labor Department data shows that there are now 500,000 more unincorporated, self-employed workers than there were at the start of the pandemic: 9.44 million.

Often the simplest explanation for big changes is the obvious one.

On a job search over the holidays? Here are two quick and encouraging reasons why that’s a good thing.

#1. Less competition
Most job seekers take the holidays off, and it makes sense to take a break since looking for work can wear down even the most enthusiastic seeker. But what does that mean for the people who choose to keep looking? Well, it means less competition.

#2 Your contacts have free time
If you’re networking, and you absolutely should be networking, chances are good that the people with whom you’d like to meet have some time on their hands. Sure, not everyone has a cushy holiday schedule, but the odds of getting your name on some of those busy calendars are definitely in your favor.

Anyone who knows our company knows that we value the power of networking for both job-seekers and job-havers! This is a great article from Kathy Caprino and Forbes that addresses the barriers we build to avoid networking.

According to recent studies, as many as 80% of jobs are NOT landed by applying online (but through personal and professional connections) and 70% of jobs are not publicly listed. It's through networking that we gain the opportunity to learn about ideal roles and have the chance to apply.
