Since July 2021, over 4 million Americans are quitting their jobs each month in what has been called “The Great Resignation.” This mass exodus can benefit you in two ways:

• Employers are seeking new and innovative ways to attract and retain employees, meaning higher salaries, more benefits, and better perks.
• Employers are finding it difficult to find qualified staff for the seemingly endless list of jobs available right now. 

If you are looking for a new job, a career change, or simply want to improve your current position, you can use The Great Resignation to your advantage. Learn how you can benefit from “The Big Quit.”
