Companies hiring right now

Companies hiring right now

Bottom Line: We just experienced the biggest week of lost jobs in American history, with nearly 3.3 million people filing unemployment claims. 74,000 of those came in Florida, which if you’re looking for a silver lining, is far fewer on a relative basis, than the rest of the country. We account for 6.4% of the national population but accounted for just 2.2% of the unemployment claims. Adversity does generally provide opportunity however, and now is no different. While many companies are essentially shut down, many others are overwhelmed with business and need help fast. Here are industries and companies within them that are hiring more people than they are laying off right now and are active in Florida...

Something to be mindful of when looking for employment currently, many of the job postings with online recruiters aren’t currently available. Commonly they are openings which haven’t been closed out since the impact of the virus hitting. That’s not to say that many won’t be available once life gets back to usual, you just might spend a lot of time spinning your wheels chasing opportunities that don’t exist in the here and now. There are additional companies hiring, including local companies in related industries as well right now. The companies listed are those I’ve been able to verify active hiring plans this past weekend in Florida.
