2020 was a year unlike any other. In addition to health & wellness concerns, countless businesses across the country have been severely impacted financially by COVID-19. As a result, people everywhere are experiencing a sense of uncertainty about what the future holds for their careers.
Maybe the shutdown caused you to suddenly lose your position, experience a reduction in hours, or realize that you're unsatisfied with a job you're not passionate about anymore. Or maybe you just woke up one day and realized now is the time for a career change - better late than never! In preparing for the future, one of the main concerns is pursuing a career path that offers job security, no matter where the economy stands.
