Survey: How did you get your job?

Layoffs are among us, even tech giant Google is apparently dicing off a significant portion of their workforce, more layoffs will come over the next year. For those that got laid off (or those that are worried about it, which is most) understanding the skills needed to land that next gig are crucial.

One of my goals in this new year is to help support the community around me. As a result, I’m launching a survey to find out how people recently got their job, in an effort to understand the skills, ways to find jobs, and other tips from those that have landed jobs.

Please take this survey then share it with others, I will make all of the data public (except names and emails) and will discuss the findings on a site I’ve dedicated to help folks get employed. Thanks to RWW for spreading the word on this survey. Bryan Person helps to read the word too.

Do note, I’m doing this outside of my day job, this is simply my way of giving back to the community. Please spread the word on this in order to help others.

  1. Jeremiah,

    I couldn’t believe that “non-profit” wasn’t in the drop down menu for Industry.

  2. I was neither looking for work nor out of a job when I found my current position, and I’m probably not the only one in that situation.

    Also, I found my job by volunteering first.

    Just some thoughts for future adjustment to questions.

  3. Thank you for remembering and trying to help the people who have been hit hard.

  5. Jeremiah,

    We just went through a large layoff last Thursday, so your survey will be helpful to many hard-working people! Any way to e-mail the survey or post an alternative form of it? (our firewall blocks it) Thanks!
