Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I just got laid off and I want to find another job as fast as possible. Considering the slowdown in the energy sector, I’m wondering if I should try to find a similar job or see what else is out there. Signed Lost After Layoff Dear Lost: It can be hard to know where to begin when you’re suddenly laid off—especially when your whole sector is under pressure--but a good starting point is your local Alberta Works Centre. Alberta Works Centres are one-stop job-search centres staffed by Career and Employment Consultants. There are 53 Alberta Works Centres located across the province offering free: • Job Fairs • Employment consultations • Job-market forecasts/trends/statistics • Resume and job-interview workshops • Information on careers and training options • Job-search tools, including computers and photocopiers
