Where will find some work over 600.000 unemployed this year? Possible solutions range from starting small businesses with European funds to professional reorientation and going to companies that are hiring β retail, outsourcing, travel or financial services.
βTo us the high number of unemployed in the economy is an opportunity because now we have plenty to hire from,β Theodor Alexandrescu, chief executive of insurance company AIG Life, told BUSINESS Magazin. To insurers, personnel recruitment had been a very complicated matter until recently, because of the tight competition in the financial sector and the small numbers of specialists available. This year AIG wants to hire new sales agents and now Alexandrescu has plenty to pick from, because there are enough people who have or will lose their jobs. To companies that are not forced by the crisis to operate personnel cutbacks, the high number of unemployed is an opportunity, because it is easier to find the right people at lower costs than before. To others, the fact they have plenty to choose from is a good opportunity to cut their salary budgets, replacing high-salary employees with lower-paid ones.
