CAN YOU TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN UNEMPLOYED PERSON AND AN UNEMPLOYABLE PERSON?
Many times we have relatives and friends who have been seeking employment for many years.
We generally think and say that there is a high level of unemployment.
However, employers claim that they are actively searching everyday to employ the right people and even pay them well.
While employers are saying there is a lack of employable people, job seekers are saying there is lack of jobs.
The fundamental issue is that we might not have taken enough time to clearly differentiate between an unemployed person and an unemployable person.
An unemployed person is a skilled person who has some experience and value that he wants to give to an employer. Then he is actively searching for the opportunity that best fits his skills and personal goals.
An unemployable person is a person who is unlikely and unable to secure employment because there is a lack of certain factors like skills and experience.
They are not the same thing and should not be mixed up.
A person who is seeking employment must first honestly tell himself if he is an unemployed or an unemployable.
To transition from being an unemployable to an unemployed is a personal decision.
You can personal take efforts to acquire the skills and experience that employers are seeking.
Every employer loves to employ someone who has some skills and experience upon which he can build.
Enrolling in the right school where you learn everything that happens in the workplace will give you employable skills.
You can take a further step to use those skills and do an internship for 1 or 2 small businesses, then you gain work experience, even if for a few weeks.
In as short as 3 to 6 months, you can move from an unemployable to an employed person.
Yes, you can.
