LEAWOOD, Kan. - July 12, 2018 - PRLog -- BCS Overland Park/Leawood, KS says that with the unemployment rate at  historical lows, employers are looking to fill millions of jobs.  For that reason, job hunting is better than it's been in nearly a decade.  The demand is particularly strong for service industry jobs and health care with American employers looking to fill 6.6 million jobs across all sectors.  With the unemployment rate so low nationwide, higher levels of job openings suggests that good companies are having a harder time finding skilled workers.  Small businesses are particularly aggressive in hiring, with about half of the open jobs being posted by companies with fewer than 500 employees.  In a survey posted by the National Federation of Independent Businesses, small businesses reported that the shortage of qualified workers was a major issue affecting their operations in the second quarter.  Moody's Analytics anticipates that because it is an employee's job market, workers can anticipate getting a bump in compensation when they switch jobs.

A good suit can cost up to $1,000 — here's how to figure out if you need to buy one for work



businessman mad men

  • You might not need to wear a suit to an interview, your first day of work, or other tricky work situations.
  • Those in banking or law will likely need to wear a suit to work many days, and especially to interviews, but other industries are more business casual.

"Do I need to wear a suit?"
It's a question you might ask yourself in various professional situations: before a job interview, pre-networking event, and while compiling a work wardrobe.
Because a high-quality suit can cost up to $1,000, you probably don't want to buy one if you don't have to.
And you might be able to be perfectly appropriate without it.

People are quitting their jobs in droves this year — and getting record-setting pay boosts because of it







The tight labor market has stressed out fast food managerstrucking executives, and other managers. But it's a boon for other working Americans who want a pay raise, according to a Wall Street Journal article published on July 4.
With 6.7 million job openings, compared to the record low of 2.4 million in July 2009, workers are increasingly able to change jobs that provide them better salaries.
From January to May 2018, Americans who switched jobs enjoyed 48% larger annual salary boosts than those who didn't move jobs, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Job switchers in 2018 have reported median pay increases by 4%, compared to median increase of 2% by the job stayers.
At a 1.3 percentage point difference, it's the largest gap between switchers and stayers seen since 2000, a Business Insider analysis of the Fed data found.

BCS Overland Park says that job hunting in a changing economy is a continuous process and requires job seekers to always be aware of market conditions both in and outside of the current industry employed in.  Transferable skills and accomplishments need to be identified in order to penetrate companies within various industries.  The job selection process is more complicated than ever and employers can pick and chose candidates based on their needs.  However, the best jobs don’t necessarily go to the most qualified candidates but to those who are the best at job hunting.  Odds of finding a great position increase dramatically by using a methodical job hunting approach.

BCS Overland Park, KS Says There Are Several Things Job Seekers Can Do to Ease the Stress

BCS Overland Park, KS Says There Are Several Things Job Seekers Can Do to Ease the Stress

Overland Park, KS, August 14, 2015 --(PR.com)-- BCS Overland Park, KS says there are several things job seekers can do to ease the stress of the job search while speeding the process along. One rule of thumb says that it will take one month of job searching for every $10,000 of salary that you were earning; if you were making $70,000 it will take seven months. There are several areas that can be addressed to minimize the process including defining target markets as well as assessing your transferable skill sets and how they fit into those markets. If you are only applying to jobs online and not effectively networking, this alone can as much as double the length of the search. Resumes and cover letters should highlight skills and achievements to demonstrate transferable skills and be customized for the particular opportunity.

BCS Overland Park Kansas Launches New Website

BCS Overland Park Kansas announced today that they have launched a new website,http://www.bcskansasnews.com, featuring employment and job search related news. The purpose of the site is to showcase current news and events about the company, employment news, press releases and other job search information.
BCS in Overland Park says they get complaints from time to time that there is not enough of this type of information available. According to a spokesperson for BCS, the website was also born out of a need to better inform the public about their firm.    BCS says, “This site will provide important news, surveys, and executive search information.”
Plans to launch similar informational sites are in the future as demands arise. The BCS spokesperson said, “We sometimes hear that people would like to learn more about us. Being a regionally based firm, we don’t have the national recognition of some other firms.” BCS feels that their regionally based business model is their strength since the majority of job seekers who come to them are looking for employment in the Kansas City area.
The new site does not replace their main website for BCS Kansas. That site is to remain their primary web portal for both new and existing clients.
BCS Overland Park provides search assistance to executives in career transition, using a combination of state of the art technology and proven techniques that surpass typical recruiting methods.
