Two metropolitan statistical areas in the US have unemployment rates worse than the Great Depression. The El Centro, California MSA's rate was 28.5% in June. The rate for the Yuma, Arizona MSA next door was 26.9%.
The Great Depression's rate peaked at 25% in 1933. Both areas are roughly the same as they were a year ago, with Yuma being .3 worse and El Centro .3 better.
The lowest unemployment rate was in the Bismarck, North Dakota MSA: 3.6%.
Networking
CON: Don't network or tell people you're looking for work, this unusual advisor says. Ignore ads that say "no phone calls" and phone anyway between 4 pm and 6 pm. (No word on what to say if they ask "Can you read?")
PRO: Networking is not all about you. The other person has to get value too.
