Worried about Layoffs and Offshore?
For the past few years we have seen many layoffs and job
elimination due to off shoring of jobs. Is there any job that
can give some kind of security?
There are no jobs now which can give you 100% guarantee
nowadays. But you can avoid the lay off and the effects of off
shoring by the following:-
- Keep a step ahead of the crowd by learning new skills - Make
yourself a valuable asset to the employers - Try to get a
federal or defense related job since most these kind of jobs are
safer from off shoring.
- Due to the war in Iraq and the downsizing of the armed forces
there are plenty of contract jobs in the private sector doing
business with defense forces. Most of the positions require US
citizenship which means these kinds of jobs are never off
shored. This is a safe bet to start.
- Know more about your business; if you have a strong business
knowledge it will be hardly outsourced or off shored
- Take a moment to think about the job
you are doing. Can any
one do your job from anywhere? any time restrictions? Lot of
interaction? these questions might give a clue about your job
situation.
The high tech industry and the software industry in particular
is vulnerable to offshoring of services. The only way you can
avoid is to learn more business about the company and make
yourself an important player in the team.
There are several web sites that specializes jobs related to
federal government and defense contracting jobs. You should
check some sites and apply for a job.
