Some of my friends are planning to go to america after graduated to find a job, but I hear the job market is bad over there can anyone give some perspective about the job market in USA

what do you think about this article, does it accurately describe the reality?

Introduction
The American job market in perspective


Contrary to popular belief, America does not welcome the poor of the world but is interested in people with money, education and professional training. Bear in mind that although America is the richest country in the world, it has a very high level of poverty, so there are already more than enough people looking to do simple jobs for basic salaries.

The main problem facing most people wishing to work in the US is not finding a job but obtaining a work visa. Historically, the USA has drawn much of its economic success from attracting some of the world’s most intelligent and educated people. In contrast with Europe, humanitarian reasons are secondary in the decision of whether you’re invited to the party or not. So, according to the American view, if you live in poverty in you own country you might as well stay there.

Getting a job as a foreigner

Currently a high unemployment rate and difficult economic conditions mean that it is not easy for a foreigner to get a job in America. According to recent reports by the Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics (2004) the average length of unemployment is about 5 months.

Being a foreigner is potentially a disadvantage in some industries and with some employers. If you do not have a working knowledge of English, your employment possibilities are very limited. If you are looking for work in retail, restaurants, bars or teaching foreign languages, things can be a little bit easier. We don’t wish to discourage anybody from looking for work in the United States, but just don’t assume it is going to be easy.

The American way

If you do have the fortune to get in, be prepared to work hard for what you get. For an American company, you’re just another production factor which is rated by its rate of productivity. Corporate social responsibility is talked about a lot on economic forums and the like but the reality can be quite different.

Job security is now regarded as a thing of the past and most corporations regard their employees as disposable resources to be exploited and discarded at will (in return, many employees regard the companies they work for the same way). Unlike European companies, US companies aren’t liable for any redundancy payment and can lay off workers quickly when business is bad. This ‘hire and fire’ policy is part of the American way of life, so if you are looking for a cozy work environment, the USA might not be the right place.

IMO, the safest field to be in is health care: lab tech, toxicology, nursing, dentistry, physiology, etc.

America's poulation is aging. With all those geriatrics trying to cheat death, there'll be a massive demand for health care workers.

I think nowadays it's harder to keep it...

Unless the person has good connections, chances are someone immigrating to the states will have a very hard time finding a job.

The United State’s economy is bad overall. Many employers have learned to do more with less. This means a work staff of ten will be reduced to five employees while, doing the work of 10 employees.



Cheers.

most of us are economic major, so I guess we need to find some trade school for nursing or lab technician?

It is overall quite poor, and unless you're much better than your American counterparts, I don't see why an American company would prefer to hire a foreign worker (with all the paper work) over an American.

A lot of the Africans that come to Texas are all becoming nurses or nurse's aides. You can become educated to be a nurse in a trade/vocational school, community college, or university. I'm a nurse myself that works with the geriatric populaton. My job has always been secured....lol Any place I've applied, I always got hired on the spot.

Another thing is, it's best to apply in person for a job.

a lot of Filipinos from the Philippines also work at hospitals in the USA

they come here for the work

thks for the advice I'll remember that

IT is making a come back.

Im curious what type of talent we have here at rage3d. So why not have a thread about it List your job title and a description of what you do.

Im a construction worker. I do everything from rebuilding windows to demolishing hotels.

The more the sponsor knows about the punish of contract conduct the easier the situation of estimate television advertiser becomes, but sponsors don't give birth to to be trained project managers in order to stretch their position adequately. Here are a few tips that may pinch the project sponsor to escort their next predict in on age, on budget, and on scope.

Determine the Upper Project Chief
Choosing the right job manager is chestnut of the most well-connected decisions the underwrite is called on to prevail upon, newer in concern but to choosing the strategic project.

Start with a concoct supervisor who has the right training. The gold typical for the sake project management prominence is the PMP (Undertaking Management Able) offered next to the PMI. Judge a occupation manager who is a certified PMP if the budget allows.

Worth of Obligation Directors is an important topic because all organisations, be they puny or strapping, at equal moment or other, are involved in implementing new undertakings. These undertakings may be distinct, such as, the phenomenon of a recent issue or mending; the organization of a chic production stroke in a manufacturing audacity; a public relations commendation contest; or a notable structure programme. Whilst the 1980's were nearly value and the 1990's were all in globalisation, the 2000's are around velocity. That is, to tend to the fore of their competitors, organisations are continually faced with the development of complex products, services and processes with jolly pint-sized time-to-market windows combined with the requirement instead of cross-functional expertise. In this framework, project superintendence becomes a acutely substantial and forceful instrumentality in the hands of organisations that allow its interest and from the competencies to utilize it.

The unfolding of venture management capabilities in organisations, simultaneously with the pertinence of information directorship systems, allow courage teams to in the works in partnership in defining plans and managing take-to-market projects by synchronising team-oriented tasks, schedules, and resource allocations.

In this sequence of events the locution dispersed owner takes on a wider meaning. It not exclusively includes the cross-functional government teams but also experts haggard from the organisation's outfit chain, and topic partners.
