Even during tough employment times it seems like some professions are always hiring. Rarely do you hear about an out of work doctor, nurse, or lawyer. There are probably a lot of theories why this is the case, but the bottom line is that they have very specialized skills that are always needed. They attend school for one thing and they do not waste time on multiple general education credits. While not everyone has the money or time to return to school to become a doctor or lawyer, there are other professions that require professional skills. For instance, those familiar with technical analysis software, may have exactly what companies are looking for. Those with stock technical analysis knowledge may have better luck finding employment than someone with just a communications degree.
If you have a talent for cooking or baking, you should it consider your next career. Even though restaurants suffer during down financial periods, the truth is people still eat out. They also need birthday cakes and special occasion foods, so if you can offer up a plate of delectable goodies, there will be a job for you. Those who have always had a love of cooking and baking should consider making their hobby professional. You can work for yourself or get your foot in the door at an area restaurant. This is a specialized career that allows you to find work more easily.
Those who lack a knack for cooking still have plenty of options. If you have a creative flair, there are other chances for you to help with party planning. While people cut back on elaborate celebrations, there are still events occurring. If you are crafty and organized, you can help people plan events. You can decide exactly what services you will offer and what you will leave to the other pros. If you are able to plan a great party, you can offer this service to other people.
There are companies looking for handy people who can keep their offices running as smoothly as their homesthat need handymen just like they do at home. If you have found that things breaking are no match for you in your home, you may be able to provide these exact same services in a business setting. In some cases, people who do these tasks freelance and work for several different companies. Consider contacting some of the small business in your area for freelance handyman work.
Finally, do you love cleaning? This may be just the job for you. You can offer your detail oriented services to homeowners who lack the time or desire to clean. This is a great way to find regular work, even during tough times.
