A Piece of the Jobseeker Puzzle

Get out and volunteer if you are out of work, working part time or are underemployed.  Besides helping you to feel better about your situation, show HR and Hiring Managers that you are willing to get out and work, even if it is unpaid work.  Furthermore, a regular volunteer opportunity (at least once a week for at least four hours a week) can be added to your resume as a current job, with “Volunteer” as the job title (typically with no more than one bullet point of description).  Remember, work is work, whether you get paid for it or not!
