Yesterday Yahoo Finance published an article on the Best Companies for Job Growth. Many of the companies had over 20% job growth last year when “companies weren’t hiring”.
They’re Hiring!
As the leader of The Compass Group, my church’s career group, I often hear “no one is hiring”. Even in Austin, Texas – reportedly one of the strongest economies in the U.S., I constantly hear this statement. I always reply with “someone is hiring”, and by the stats in Yahoo Finance’s article, some companies were doubling their workforce!
Target
As a Career Coach, I recommend a strategy that targets companies that the client would like to (and be proud to) work for. I’m generally asked how to get started making a list of companies. This Yahoo Finance article will be one of the tools that anyone can use to start building a list of target companies.
Happy St. Patricks Day everyone!

Career Coach & Fortune 500 HR professional, Jay Markunas, recommends targeting 30-40 companies that clients would be proud to work for when working with clients through Great Occupations and The Job Search Boot Camp. Check out a sneak-peak at the new Great Occupations website (still in development) due to launch next week: http://www.GreatOccupations.com.
