None-the-less, this increase in the number of newspapers, means new businesses, which means new jobs. This I believe validates the YWCA Employment and Learning Center’s position that job seekers should cold call employers (including and especially new businesses) to job seek.
In the last week or so a new daily the Saskatoon metro has begun distributing its free daily newspaper throughout the city. They have hired a small army of green clad workers to hand out and distribute their colourful tabloids. This morning a gentleman handed me a copy of the paper in front of the Sheraton Cavalier hotel and I’ve seen a young woman distributing copies within the Saskatoon Community Service Village. I do not know how these people found these jobs, but I did not see any advertisements.
I can also tell you that looking for employment in alternative places (i.e.: not on the internet is important; for example the Saskatoon metro is currently advertising in its newspaper for the following positions:
-
OFFICE MANAGER
-
GRAPHIC DESIGNER
- SALES REPRESENTATIVE.
