Yes, I think that unemployment is a problem especially during this economic. Everyone is losing their jobs. I have a friend who works for the county; because of the budget cute she lost her job recently. I know there was an employee that could never get fire because of her personally; she always smiles to upper management even though she doesn’t know how to do her job because they like her she will never get fire. I think that every time is a good timing to look for job and it’s depending how hard that person is searching. I start to work when I was 14 years old and my first job is during the summer and I work at the Day care. I work four hours and go to school four hours, I like it because I get to play with little kids….. If you meant by high school after graduation I think that they would be good at starting level entry because this days young people know how to use computer and they are fast learner as well. I think that the best way is searching the internet beside friends when you are looking for a job.

I think that in this country a high level of unemployment. However, it is possible find a job. I know one person who recently lost his job. He was a very good worker, but his health deteriorated, and the employer fired him because he could not do his job as effectively as before. An employee who will never be fired by an employer, is an employee who is never late for work. Also, he always performs instructions of the employer, and never argues with the employer as well as with other employees. In my opinion, the best time when the person should start looking for work is a time when there is a need to work. It does not depend on any situations. My very first job was the seller of honey. My dad is a beekeeper, and I often helped him to sell honey. Young people should work to have enough qualification after graduation. I think the most effective way to search a job is searching a job through friends. But we should not be limited to just our friends, we should use all possible ways of searching for a job.

Yes, I think that unemployment is a great problem in this country. My the best friend lost job a few month ago. She was working as a copy maker for fifteen years but this company got bankrupt and she is now unemployment. She is looking for a new job. She already had two interviews but she still waiting for answer. I can’t describe an employee whom the employer will never fire because all people are very different so sometimes for my opinion this person so nice but she was fired. And I think this always work like fortune for everybody. Of course, we have to try to work hard, to be friendly, and be on work always on time. I remember all my jobs. The first one I worked as a cook and baker. I liked this job but it was hard for me. In my opinion the most efficient ways to look for job is newspaper because one day I was look at the newspaper and got my job.

Now a days an unemployment is a very big problem in the U.S. Many people still loosing their jobs and getting unemployment benefits .For example, my husband was receiving unemployment for more than two year ,and it was hard . Just very recently my brother-in-low last his job , and got unemployment benefits . I know few more people who last their jobs , houses , and because of that last their friends . The situation is not easy and seems to me there are very big economic problems in this country . I was a student and didn't have any job when I was yang because it wasn't common in our country to work during you're student . But, my first job was a caregiver ,and I really liked it . It was very interesting for me to meet new people and help them in that hard period of their life . I think here in the U.S. it is much easier to find job in yang age ,and it is a good point for them to show their responsibility .Yang people can start step by step learning how isn't it easy to make money and decide which profession works for them the best . Few of my nieces started to work in their sixteen , and they are very good and hardworking . Because of that I think there is no the best age ,but it is all depends on persons quality being independent . The most efficient way to find a job are friends . First ,as they know you they will give a qualification to an employer . Second ,they can help you with paper if it is your firs job . And third , if you are good employee the employer will trust you about your friend . I believe the newspaper and internet are very good sources to fined job too.

I think the unemployment is a great problem now in this country. My cousin who lost her job recently, worked an average of seven years for a supermarket company and she needed to move to another city, so she requested her transfer to another store closer to her new house, but the company did not transfer her, and she lost her job. I don’t know how the job system in this country is and which the qualities that a company needs are, but I think the company are looking an honest and worker employee. In my opinion, the best time to start looking for a job is when we are young, because we have more possibilities to find a job. I started to work when I was 15 years old and I was a teacher assistant in a kinder garden. It was a good experience because I enjoyed working and earned my own money. In my view, when we are young we should get a part time job and continue our studies after the graduation because is the best way to improve our skills and we will be better trained to work. I think the best way to look for a job is using the internet because it is more updated.

Unemployment is a great problem in this country. I know some people who have lost their jobs recently because of bad economy. An employee whom the employer will never fire is probably a really good employee and do her/his job always on time. I think they use their time good and don't waste time. The best time for looking for a job I think is holidays, for example Christmas. My first job was at Sears as Recovery. I organized clothes and folded them. I think young people should first finish studying then do community service or volunteer work first, then get a real job. I believe most efficient ways to look for jobs are walking in the stores and ask if they are hiring or not.

Unemployment is a huge problem in this country. There are many people who don't have jobs are looking for jobs. I personally have many families and friends who have lost their jobs because of the decrease in economy. An employer who can never get fired is someone who is always on task and is doing their job how they are supposed to. Also, it depends on the job and the work they have to do but most of them have to be able to multi-task to get many work done fast. I don't think there is a best time to looking for jobs but I think you can always get seasonal jobs during the holidays. My first job was working in a tobacco factory. Our work was to get the tobacco we received from farms ready and make them into cigarretes. Also, we sometimes went outside of Iran to choose the best tobacco that our company was going to buy. I think young people should first choose their carriers based on their interest and the economy and then start their jobs. Right now, I think the best efficient way is to look in internet for finding jobs.

Unemployment is popular problem in many countries and the U.S isn’t exception. When I was at high school, I worked at coffee shop. I got a lot of experience from working at coffee shop. In my opinion, after graduation is the best time to start working. During the time people studying at college, people should try to get a part time job. It is very convinient to you to get more knowledge from life.” Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new” from Einstein. If people want to get the job certainly, that means they must have a lot of experience. Many companies require about employer and appreciate to people having skill or good ability. Many advertisements on paper and internet maybe give some necessary information about the kind of job. Recently, a lot of my relatives lost their job. It seems hard to have a new job now. Unemployment is an important part of economic development not only international but also the U.S deals with some trouble about employment problem.

Of course unemployment a great problem in this country especially now during a bad economic. Unfortunatly because of this a lot of people lost there jobs recently. I think there is an employee whom the employer will never fire becouse he is professional worker and knows his job very well. It is very hard to say when it is the best time for a person to start looking for a job because it depends on person and in what situation he or she is in. Of course i remember what was my very first job. My first job was teacher when I finished college and became a teacher I started working. I was really happy that I had that kind of job. Young people have to work as a volontir to have enough qualification after graduation. Also they can work with people who have enough experience because they can help them and prepare them for there jobs. Again it is hard to deside that what is the most efficient ways to look for a job. Some times you can find very good job with help of friends. Some times with help of internet and newspaers.

There are many countries in the world suffering from unemployment due to the so-called. World financial crisis. This is very big problem in united stats and our countries. In this country many people lose job, because loss of the company and shod down this company or reduce the labor. I know many people lose jobs, were in jobs prestigious but now unemployed. When a good employee and has experience and employer need him or her will be never fire. Everybody look for best work, but some times the work to be imposed on the person .because need job. when I was in my country , I worked many jobs. The first job was taxi driver. This job was very hard, because there were many person worked it and my cities were crowded. in this country there are young people studying and working. I think this a good way to be prepared to work after graduation. After the graduation should begin to look for work suited to a qualified. There are many ways to find a job friends, internet, newspaper, ads on shops, and employment offices. The most people prefer internet and newspaper.

I think unemployment is a big problem in this country. It is also a big problem in my country. My family recently lost their jobs. How to look for a job? I can not say for sure. I think through the newspapers, sometimes via the Internet. My friends helped me find a job. I have worked with painting cars. I think now in many countries is a big problem with unemployment.

Unemployment is a big problem in this country.The number of available jobs isn't enough to support the number of people in this country. You never know if your job is secure or if you are going to be fired or laid off. One person can be laid off many times and lose several different jobs. Having so many unemployed people doesn't help our economy any, and it is very difficult to support a family if you are unemployed.I dont know anyone who recently lost their job but i know that a lot of peple are loosing ther job.A lot of people are unemployed and cant find a job.My first job was ina restaurant as a waitress ut i dont work there any more because they went out of business.I think the best way to find a job is through a newspaper.

Yes, unemployment is a great problem in this country. Due to the economy many people have lost their jobs, or are still losing their jobs. I don’t know anyone personally who just recently lost a job, but I do know quite a few people that lost their jobs a few years ago and still cannot find a job. An employee that never would get fired is someone who is loyal to their duties and requirements at work. But if the business is bad, sometimes employers have to let go of their best employees.

Unemployment is a big problem for this country and many others countries too. For last couple years the economy is very bad. Everyone could lose their jobs and the government assistance programs cutting too. I know couple people who lose their jobs recently and it is very hard for them to find a new job. They really need job because they have families and bills. I think there is no an employee who will never be fire. You could be good worker, come to work always on time, smiling to customers and do everything perfect but if company doesn’t have enough money to pay for your job then even good employees have to be laid off. The best time to begin searching for a job is the time when you need one. You need to search everywhere, including newspapers, internet or ask friends and you definitely could find a job. My first job was in fast food restaurant. My job duties were serving food it was a difficult job but I enjoyed working there. After graduation young people need to be very organize and attentive. They need to work hard to get good qualifications.

In the U.S. is a big problem of unemployment because people without jobs can not pay their bills as, housing, utilities, car, food, insurance, etc. It is a great cost to the government. I have a friend who losted his job two months ago. He worked for 10 years in a hospital, was very responsibly often worked at night and holidays, but many people was fired for by low economic resources. My first job in the U.S. Wearhouse was shipping for placing orders around the world. It was really fun because you could hear good music all day, was a distributor of CDmusica. I think the students if they have sufficient qualifications after graduation is better to find a good job. Internet is the best way to find work.

Unemployment it’s a big problem not just for USA but I think for many different countries too. Yes I met a lot of people who lost their jobs and get unemployment. When I spoke with them they looking for different job but they still have unemployment. When they apply for work no body answer them. That’s great opportunity with unemployment because you can still make a pay bills, support your family, and the same time apply for jobs ,with unemployment’s. My very first job was fast food restaurant in this country. In my country very hard find job when you student or if you don’t have any connections who can help you with work. I think in depends on person she or he can stars work of any age 16-18. My cousin she is 18 she start work at store this year she is very hard worker. She is very happy because she can support herself. I think it a great start for yang students have the own job.

I think the unemployment system is a good choice for people that lost their jobs. Recently we are passing by a horrible financially time and there are a lot of people getting fire only by the fact that the companies are cutting staff and extras expenses. However I know a lot of people that take advantage of the unemployment system. Once they start getting money from the government they just stay receiving money and don’t even look for jobs. It’s easy, only stays at home and keeps having money coming every month. My roommate asked her company to fire her and she is receiving unemployment for more than 2 years. She lies to the unemployment system that she is looking for jobs but she never shows up at interviews. I think people have to realize that is a benefit to receive unemployment but you can’t take advantage of this benefit.

Unemployment is a great problem in this country. Yes I know a lot people whom lost the job recently. An employee whom lost a job lost his or her home too. An employee whom will never employer fire must be hard worker, on time, good attitude, organizer and respect other people. The best time for to start looking for a job is before Christmas begins. I remember very first job. When I got my diploma, automatically hired me. I liked this job but I didn’t had enough experience. My school didn’t give me education about my major, The young people who graduated are not qualify for get a job, Experience is the most important than other things. The most efficient ways to look a job are friends, the internet, and newspaper.

Being unemployment is very stressful.I am used to struggling and living paycheck to paycheck but this is different and worse.If I do not have the assurance that I will set a paycheck in a week or two,that my bills are going to be paid without ruining my credit,or how I am going to support my kid.It is going to be a big problems to me and my family at this same time to me.The longer I am unemployed the more depressing it is.So this is not a good to me at all.For me I need to be a good worker because I don like to be an unemployed person.

Economic crisis pick up high level of unemployment in U.S. A lot of people still continue loosing their gobs. Many programs like welfare, unemployment, student financial aid may be cut off because financial situation in U.S. getting worse. My brother in low lost his gob and got unemployment benefits. My first gob was in a gas station in New York City. I worked for $5 per hour. I was very happy because I came to U.S.A. with $200. My next jobs were for $5 per hour. If I lost any of my job, I wouldn’t get unemployment benefits at that time. When teenagers graduate a high school, they have to make plan for their future. I mean what they are going to do in this life. If teens are not lazy, they can go to college and get any occupation. Usually, a way to find a job is to ask friends. However, finding a job is very possible through internet, and newspaper too. Those who really need a job, can find any job, but probably for low pay.

Yes, I think unemployment is a great problem in this country. Many people have lost their jobs. We can watch on the TV or read on the newspaper that many people got jobs. But it's not really try. Some companies fire people from a full-time jobs and then hire much more people for a part-time jobs. So, many people are working only 2-5 hours a day. Anyways they still are considered as people who has a job. it's very difficult to find a job. My best friend has lost his job recently. It happened because company's budget was cut. An employee who will never be fired is an employee who will never be late for work. This person should be hardworker and always be friendly to customers or co-workers. I've never worked. But I want to have a good education and find a good job.

In my opinion many people are unemployment in the USA. It's a very big problem in this country. Many of my friends are looking for a job and they can't find it. I'm looking for a job, too. But I don't speak English well, so I can't find a job. if you don't want to lose your job, you have to be nice, friendly person. You can't be late for work or leave early your work. You shouldn't call in sick many times a month. You should be a hardworker. My first job was a bus driver. I liked this job a lot. I think there are many ways to look for a job: newspapers, internet, friends.

Unemployment is crazy; it is very hard this time to fine to find a job. Those days weren’t hard to look for a job. I use to have doubled no problem. But this time 3 times harder. Example, if you are only available on the afternoon you won’t get a job because most of the company likes a General Retail Store is only looking for your open hour’s availability. It should be open your availability all day. At this time it don’t matter what is the best time to get a job because as long you know somebody in the company that you are applying for so much better you can get a job. I mean a referral from friend and family or somebody you would get 50/50 chance. Also, if you finish of any Associates Degree or Certifications. That’s how I see it totally frustrated

In this country no one can be sure that he does not lose his job, and whom the employer never fire. The best time for a person to start looking for a job, this when person is young and graduated. I remember my very first job. It was the job of the polar radio operator on the Franz Josef Land. Unfortunately, that many the graduated young people can't find the jobs to confirm their qualifications. The most efficient ways to look for a job, this is where your friends can give for you the patronage of where they work.

I think that nowadays a lot of people out of work. And it's not just in America. Around the world, more and more people are losing their jobs. I know several people who lost their jobs over the past few months. This is a very difficult period in the life of every person who has lost his job. In our time, a man, who has any job, should try to be an executive, organized and disciplined. But this is no guarantee that this person will never lose his job. My first job in America was a volunteering. I helped at school each day, 5 consecutive months. And while I did it for free, anyway, I tried to work so that they were pleased. Young people need necessarily a diploma, but it's not all. In practice, young people must show their best side. I think that the most effective method of job search is to go into business offices, fill out applications, and call at least once in 10 days. This is my method, I found a job and my husband also found work.

Now is big problem unemployment in this country, about the economic situation is really bad. Many company have closed, leaving many people unemployment. Actually I know some people have lost their jobs, it is very unfortunate see how people lost their jobs. Could be a employer whom the employ ell will never fire, one who is always arrives on time at work, never missing work, and it is responsible. Any time is the best time for the person to star looking for a job. I remember my first job was working at the bank for seven years, it was very interesting and I learned many things, how a bank functions. It is important for young people to have internship and externship placements, as to gain experience in their graduated programs. This experience following graduation, will preparation them for the professional world. There are many different resource to find a job, either by a friend who refer to a job, or by Internet and newspaper.

I think the big problem of unemployment not only in America but also in many other countries. I know one young man, he 27y.o. who lost his job five months ago. He was very executive, but the company began to go bust, and many workers lay off. I will not describe what should be the officer to avoid being fired from their jobs. But I know that if the campaign fails, then lay off people without looking at their experience, ability, or something. Start looking for a job I think is never too late. Only difference is, what kind of job a person looking for and what is the salary. Those who are strongly looking for work; he uses all the possible options. He looks in the newspaper, listens to ads, looks on the internet or asks friends and acquaintances. Determine the most efficient way to search for work, I think it's difficult. Because different people find different ways work.

Unfortunately unemployment is a great problem in this country. I am one of the unlucky people that lost their job recently. I believe people in the medical field will never get fire. I do not know when is the best time for a person to start looking for a job but during Holidays season there are many open positions, however, most of these positions are seasonal or temporary. My first job was in a supermarket packing groceries, I was only ten years old. Young people should do internship or volunteer during the time they are in school. Internships will help them gain experience. The most efficient ways to look for a job is thru friends and internet.

Also I feel like it is difficult to find a good job the last few years. I have a few friends who after graduated can not find a job. I feel sorry for them because they spent a lot of money on loans they need to pay back.

Unemployment is world problem the economic slowdown.In every society there are people who are unemployed.It's bad because some people have the ability to work,but have to stay at home.Unemployment has a big negative effect on people because people are worried about money.They need money for living.For example,they need money for rent,food,and clothes.Also,some people are depressed because they are unable to provide for their family.In fact,all students plan to get a job after graduation.However,tough unemployment situation makes them concern a lot about getting a good job after they finish studying.The government of the U.S.makes every possible effort to solve this problem.many families, that don't have a job,receive the government aid.
