Thomas Career Consulting Launched Providing Job Searchers aCompetitive...

Mindy Thomas, MS, CPRW, a professionally trained career counselor, has launched a new career services consulting company, Thomas Career Consulting, LLC. After being laid off on from her job as a legal recruiter on January 26, 2009, the largest layoff day in modern American history, she decided to invest her time and effort in her own business providing career counseling (http://www.thomascareerconsulting.com/career.htmlsource=prweb-20090625) and r's233;sum's233; writing services (http://www.thomascareerconsulting.com/resume.htmlsource=prweb-20090625).

Over 100,000 people lost their jobs that day and, in February 2009, another 650,000 people lost their positions. With unemployment reaching an all-time high of 8.5% and many believing it to be much higher, job seekers are scrambling to compete in a big game of musical chairs, where fewer and fewer jobs are available. The unemployment rate has reached its highest level in a quarter-century after 732,000 jobs were lost in May, the 17th consecutive month of job losses. Since then, r's233;sum's233; writing services, career counseling and outplacement services are more critical than ever.

R's233;sum's233; writing is an art and skill that most people don'st have, Thomas said. After spending over a year as a recruiter in the legal profession, it became painfully obvious that even attorneys can'st put together a well-written, succinct r's233;sum's233;. A professionally-written r's233;sum's233; can provide the competitive edge needed to get an interview in this tough job market.

Thomas Career Consulting, with offices in Media, PA and New York City, works nationwide with adults who wish to explore new career options as well as advancing their career. Clients include adults in career transitions, attorneys, executives, women returning to the workforce, students struggling to choose a major, and individuals that need to re-package themselves to compete in the current job market. Whether they are struggling with writing a winning r's233;sum's233; or are in career transition, Thomas helps her clients with professional career counseling (http://www.thomascareerconsulting.comsource=prweb-20090625), professional r's233;sum's233; writing (http://www.thomascareerconsulting.com/resume.htmlsource=prweb-20090625) and career assessments (http://www.thomascareerconsulting.com/services.htmlsource=prweb-20090625) including Myers-Briggs and Strong Inventory assessments.
