Unemployed? Don’t Settle for Just Any Job

FRESNO, Calif. (KMJ) — It’s better to hold out for the right job than it is to take a lower-level position, according to a new study published by the National Bureau of Economic Research.

Researchers say employers are more likely to call unemployed applicants with relevant experience, than those with similar backgrounds who recently took a lower-level job.

The data seems to show that employers don’t like blemishes on resumes.

However, some staffing experts still believe having a job, of any kind, is better than the alternative.
