Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania (PRWEB) May 4, 2007 -- LayoffSpace.com, a free, brand new Web 2.0 powered social networking site, is an essential stop for the unemployed looking to get their lives back on track. Users create an extensive, cross-indexed profile to introduce themselves. Full of career resources for researching new employment opportunities and tools to connect to, and gain support from, fellow job seekers, LayoffSpace.com is the essential ingredient missing from impersonal job boards. There is no charge to register and participate and it's free for employers to list jobs.
"Over 200,000 apply for unemployment benefits nationally each month. LayoffSpace.com is a great resource for people to connect and to get back on their feet," said Jake Ludwinski, founder of the new site.
Getting a job relies on networking, making valuable connections to learn about openings that are never advertised. That's why unemployment can be doubly difficult; just when the unemployed most need personal connections, they are often cruelly and suddenly cut off. LayoffSpace.com is a welcome help, providing tools to keep the unemployed from slipping into anonymity.
Users start by creating an in-depth profile detailing their experience, their education and their aspirations. A LayoffSpace.com blog can help introduce others to the daily trials and small victories of an individual's job search and a chat room provides instant support from others. All of these tools are key ways to meet fellow job seekers, build trust, and trade valuable inside information. Search for fellow job seekers by location, interests, career and education.
LayoffSpace.com also offers extensive online career resources for the job search, including a job board and information on crafting a resume, coping with unemployment, implementing strategic plans for a job search. Connect online with a coach or career counselor. The site also contains exhaustive links to the US Department of Labor and to labor departments in individual states.
“We created LayoffSpace.com as a place for people whose lives have been shattered by unemployment to find what they need to pick themselves up and create bright futures,” Ludwinski said.
