4 Ways To Take Advantage Of Being Unemployed

They say as one door closes, another door opens. We believe this is how you have to view a period of unemployment.

Being unemployed is a situation most people do not want to find themselves in. The fear of financial hardship, stress, and anxiety isn’t exactly anything to look forward to. Anyone who has recently been laid off, fired, or quit their job knows that these feelings are real and can be challenging to face.

Instead of letting the fear get the best of you, use this time to reassess yourself and your career. Take the opportunity to become the best you can be for your next position. And who knows, maybe your next job will catapult your career and be better than anything you could have imagined. You might just end up being thankful for the time you spent unemployed. BUT that’s only if you use unemployment to your advantage.

There are so many ways you can take advantage of your situation to grow, learn, and empower yourself. Here are just a few (and our personal favorites):

1. Volunteer

2. Learn New Skills

3. Work Out

4. Update Your Resume

Remember, you are the one in control, so let’s turn a seemingly negative experience into a positive one as much as we can! You’ve got this!

Here’s what’s going on in the news (related to careers of course):

• Americans don’t care about work anymore.

• Should we be paying student athletes like employees?

• The amount of family offices has tripled since 2019.

5 Reasons To Make SurveyJunkie Your Next Side Hustle

There are several reasons why someone might choose to have a side hustle as an online survey taker for SurveyJunkie. Here are five possible reasons:

1. Flexibility: Online survey taking allows for flexibility in terms of working hours. As a survey taker, you can typically choose when and where you want to complete surveys. This flexibility is especially beneficial for individuals who have other commitments such as a full-time job, studies, or family responsibilities.

2. Extra Income: One of the primary motivations for having a side hustle is to earn additional income. SurveyJunkie offers compensation to survey takers for completing surveys. While the income may vary depending on factors like survey length and complexity, it can be a convenient way to supplement your regular income or save up for specific goals.

3. Low Entry Barrier: Starting as an online survey taker usually has a low barrier to entry. SurveyJunkie, for example, allows individuals to sign up easily and start taking surveys without requiring specialized skills or experience. This accessibility makes it an attractive option for people looking to earn money without needing extensive training or qualifications.

4. Work from Anywhere: Online survey taking provides the opportunity to work from anywhere with an internet connection. Whether you prefer to work from the comfort of your home, a coffee shop, or while traveling, as long as you have access to the internet, you can take surveys and earn money. This flexibility can be particularly appealing for digital nomads or individuals seeking location-independent work.

5. Variety and Engagement: Participating in online surveys exposes you to a range of topics and provides an opportunity to share your opinions. This can be interesting and engaging for individuals who enjoy expressing their thoughts, providing feedback, or learning about different subjects. It can also serve as a way to stay updated on market trends, consumer preferences, and new products or services.
