Job Market Outlook for 2020

One thing is for sure, 2020 has evolved into a roller coaster ride for every industry. The COVID-19 Pandemic that hit our country in March has changed the way we look at almost every business for products, supplies, and services. It has changed the way we educate our children, travel for business and pleasure, provide professional development, and raise money for nonprofit organizations. It has changed how we buy everyday products, our cleaning routines, and how we socialize with family and friends. Employers across multiple industries have hiring freezes and are even rescinding job offers due to fallout from the pandemic. It has forced everyone to adapt to an ever-changing world and those that recognized this early on have benefited from their creativity and ability to pivot. job sign in front of tall skyscraper buildings
