The Hidden Job Market is a job you can't see.
Employers are constantly on the lookout for candidates to replace departing, retiring workers, inefficient workers, workers for upconming
new projects, or to add an expertise in a particular area.
Most all positions are filled without employer advertising.
Companies are relying more on current employee recommendations, local or specialized job pools, recruiters, and direct contact from candidates.
So job seekers should expand their job search beyond the traditional job search methods
known as the advertised job market(Classified ads,
job banks, large internet job sites). The advertised Job Market means lots of competition with very few positive results, especially for entry-level positions.
A better way to find a job is through a combination of networking and get contact that gets you to the head of the line for a job that has not yet been listed.
The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that the health care and social assistance industry should create 28% of all new jobs between 2010 and
2020. That's a projected 5.7 million new jobs.
Thanks to an aging population, one in four Americans will be 65 or older by 2050,
and ever-expanding technology, health care is the fastest growing
segment of the United States economy.
With future growth in virtually every area of the health care industry, occupational opportunities in
health care have never been more plentiful.
