Free Workshop for the Unemployed and Under-employed of South Carolina

Today's news told a horrifying story of the current economic situation in South Carolina. The unemployment rate has reached 11%--the highest since the 1980's. Add in the number of South Carolinians that are UNDER employed in their jobs, we have a critical situation here.

After viewing some comments on LinkedIN by Citadel Grads stating what a difficult time they were having in finding employment, I knew I had to help. As a way of helping the community, my company (with sponsorship by many local companies) is holding a free workshop for unemployed and UNDER-employed individuals in the Charleston area. We are calling the workshop the True Success Workshop and hope to hold it the week of the 20th of April. The workshop will focus on such things as:

• Do you want a job or a career?
• Realistically assessing your strengths and attributes for a job
• Are you sabotaging your career?

I will also be offering advice for individuals wishing to start their own companies or desire Career Coaching to excel in any field.

We would like feedback to know what concerns you at this time. Please forward all emails to Tamara@outlawgroup.com and she will compile these for me to address at the Workshop. Please keep checking back for dates, times, and location. Also, we will be taking excerpts from the Career Search Workbook so you may want to purchase it prior to the workshop (but this is not necessary).

Finding the Right Fit!

As a business consultant, a designer of staffing systems for fortune 100 companies, and a published author on the subject of staffing, I have made a career out of assisting employers in hiring the most qualified staff. Good employees are the lifeblood of any business. The right people can help take a business to the top; the wrong people can break you. In my book, Smart Staffing: How to Hire, Reward, and Keep Top Employees for your Growing Company, I help employers in their search for hard-working, committed people who share the same vision and business values.

Given the unemployment situation we are facing in America at this time, I have created this website to try to assist employees in finding the work they so desperately need, and to help them find the jobs that are right for them.

Each week I will be offering some proven tactics to identify what you have that employers want, make you stand out as an applicant, how to find the employers who will fulfill your needs professionally, and advice in the process of locating your new career.

Please feel free to forward a link to my site for anyone you know who may need some help.

There are many unemployed and underemployed people who have tremendous capability to help good companies thrive even in these difficult times. It is my goal to help good people find good companies.

I look forward to hearing your feedback, as well!
