ith more than 100 open positions, Geisinger Community Medical Center recruiters will be on the hunt for potential employees at Wednesday’s Great Northeast Job Fair.

Phyllis Lynady, talent acquisition recruiter for Geisinger Community Medical Center, said she is searching for individuals who want a career, not just another job.

“We have an aging population in Scranton, so we’re looking to bring in reinforcements. We have both entry-level

jobs and professional positions available right now,” Mrs. Lynady said. “We’re looking for individuals who are committed to caring and people that have a desire to fulfill their vision. In health care there are endless opportunities if you have the desire and the motivation.”

More than 70 employers will attend the 14th annual Great Northeast Job Fair in search of local employees.

The job fair, sponsored by the Geisinger Community Medical Center and co-sponsored

by TJ Maxx Distribution, will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Genetti Manor in

Frank Gilmartin, assistant director of career services at the University of Scranton, said the value of a job fair in an area like Scranton is unmatched.

“Any event that will get dozens of employers in one place is vital for those who are trying to start a career,” Mr. Gilmartin said. “Job fairs let employers meet prospective employees face to face and see their confidence and communication skills.

Job fairs are a way to show employers that you are more than just a resume.”

Mrs. Lynady said she agrees that job fairs help

put a face to a name.

“We get to see the applicants face to face. There’s too much technology involved anymore. You lose that personal touch,” Mrs. Lynady said. “People come in and have no idea what they want to do, but sometimes just talking helps put them on the right path.

You tell them about the opportunities you have and they become interested. It’s a win-win for everyone.”

Admission to the fair is free, and there will be a random giveaway of $100 every hour.

College-educated workers taking jobs that don’t require degrees

By Alana Semuels Los Angeles Times

I

n a packed pub in midtown Manhattan, Ryan Flagherty is surrounded on three sides by people clamoring for his attention.

He spins one way and pours a shot of vodka into a glass, then turns around and wedges a lime into a bottle of beer, pushing it across the counter. Ignoring the annoyed gaze of a bulky man on his right, he turns again to a touch-screen register to ring up the sales.

It’s just a minute out of the grueling, physically demanding eight-hour shift that will last long into the night. But Flagherty, 28, isn’t complaining.

With the generous tips of New Yorkers and his pick of shifts, he pulls in around $80,000 a year as a bartender. It’s more than he was offered for various office jobs he considered when he arrived in the city, even though he’s highly educated.

“I have a master’s in economics and I’m bartending in New York,” he said with a shrug. “It’s a good way to make money.”

A college degree once all but guaranteed a wellpaying job and higher earnings than high school graduates. But fewer of

these good jobs are now available because of both long-term economic changes and the lingering effects of the Great Recession.

People such as Flagherty with college and advanced degrees are working jobs that don’t require them, whether by choice or necessity. That in turn pushes people without college degrees out of those jobs.

In 1970, only 2 percent of firefighters had college degrees; now 18 percent do, according to Richard Vedder, an economist at Ohio University. Less than 1 percent of taxi drivers had a college degree in 1970; now 15 percent do. About 25 percent of retail sales clerks have college degrees, Vedder said.

“The main reason is a pretty simple one,” he said.

“The number of college graduates has grown vastly faster than the number of jobs that require high-level education skills.”

In the 1980s and 1990s, the demand for college graduates started booming, especially in the lead-up to the tech boom, said Paul Beaudry, an economist at the University of British Columbia who has studied this trend. Wages grew and

a college education paid off.

But when the tech bubble burst, the economy was left with an oversupply of college graduates. Some went into industries related to housing or finance, and then the recession wiped out those jobs. No industry has emerged to employ all the people who got college degrees in that time, he said.

As more college graduates have flooded the market, employers are able to offer lower wages. The earnings of college graduates have fallen about 13 percent in the past decade, according to Drexel University economist Paul Harrington.

Saim Montakim has a bachelor’s degree in accounting but drives a New York City taxicab. It’s strenuous work, but he can make $200 on a good day.

On a bad day, he barely can pay the rent for the taxi and the cost of gas.

He’s getting a master’s degree in human resource management and hoping that his dual degrees will help him find a better job.

The accounting jobs he was offered upon graduation were all entry-level, paying $10 an hour. He prefers driving a taxi to being stuck in an office from 9 to 5 at that wage, he says.

Montakim, who is from Bangladesh, came to the U.S. to get an education.

He figured that with a college degree, he’d be able to find a good job and build a life for himself in America.

Now he acknowledges that his idea that a job comes with a college education might have been unrealistic.

“I’ve always had a dream of being in America, for an American education in the United States,” said Montakim, 38. “But now I think my expectations were too high. I was far, far beyond reality.”

Aside from his daily expenses, Montakim has student loans to repay.

Because college is so expensive, many students are facing a dilemma: If they go to college, they still might not get a job that requires a college degree, and they’ll be on the hook for big student loan payments. But if they don’t go to college, they might be pushed out of entrylevel jobs by overqualified college graduates who can’t find other work.

“It puts college grads in a condition that’s unique out of the last 30 to 40 years,” Harrington said. “The yield from investing in college, students’ ability to pay off debt, has diminished.”

Golden years grow dimmer as workers labor longer

By Lorraine Mirabella The Baltimore Sun

B

efore the recession, Madie Green’s home day care was normally full. As parents lost their jobs and pulled kids out, the 55-year-old District Heights, Md., woman spent through her savings to keep up on her mortgage and auto payments.

Her business still hasn’t recovered to what it once was, and now she’s so worried about whether she’ll be able to retire that she is expanding into an after-school program for elementary- and middleschool students.

Retirement seems more distant than ever.

“It’s no longer the golden years,” Green said.

These days, the sentiment is more common.

Though stock prices are rising, unemployment is falling and the economy is growing, more workers are choosing to stay in the labor force longer. The trend reverses decades of steadily falling retirement ages. During the recession, delaying retirement was spurred by job losses, salary reductions, depressed home prices and depleted savings.

Now, workers anticipate smaller returns on their investments. Health benefits for retirees also are eroding even as costs are rising. Meanwhile, people are living longer, healthier lives - all of which adds to a need to work and save longer.

The share of workers nationwide aged 45 to 60 who planned to delay retirement soared to 62 percent last year, the Conference Board reported, up from 42 percent in 2010.

Separately, analysts at the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research found that about 40 percent of older Americans have delayed their planned retirement since the end of the recession.

Since the recession ended, “a lot of people spent more than they earned and had to continue to deplete their savings, and that makes them less prepared for retirement,” said Gad Levanon, director of macroeconomic research for the Conference Board.

“People were unemployed for a while, or worked part-time or got significant pay cuts and were unable

to cover their expenses.

Savings shrunk and made them more willing to delay retirement.”

The Conference Board found that workers 45 to 60 who have lost a job, had a salary cut, or saw their home decline in value are more likely than others to plan to delay retirement.

But even workers who were not significantly hurt by the recession are more likely than before to plan to work longer. That trend held true across all ethnic, gender and income lines.

CareerBuilder found 60 percent of workers aged 60 or older planned to look for another job after retiring from their current company - up from 57 percent last year. About three-quarters of respondents planned to work another one to six years, and more than 1 in 10 of 680 workers surveyed said they probably never would be able to retire.

On average, those who delayed retirement are waiting about one and a half years longer than they originally planned to leave their jobs, said Brooke Helppie McFall, an economist with Michigan’s Institute for Social Research.

Many workers have lost too much value in savings

and other assets or were forced to draw down on those assets, McFall said.

A typical household lost about 5 percent of its total wealth between the summers of 2008 and 2009. The biggest asset for most people is their home, and housing prices still have not recovered prerecession levels.

The recession exerted particular influence on the retirement plans of men 55 to 64, U.S. Labor Department statistics show.

“Their retirement is less secure than they had thought,” said labor economist Heidi Shierholz, either because of a decrease in assets or a loss

of a job that left a longterm income gap.

“More of them are in the labor force than there would be if the Great Recession hadn’t happened,” said Shierholz, with the Washingtonbased Economic Policy Institute, who compared Bureau of Labor Statistics pre-recession projections to actual employment figures.

Jeff Miller realized two years ago he would not meet his goal of retiring at 62.

A computer server engineer at a Frederick, Md., data center for Marriott International, Miller suffered losses in the

value of his 401(k) and his home. Plus, he has seven more years to pay off a student loan for his son.

At 61, he expects to work at least six more years.

“I was hoping for 62, but that went out the window when the economy went south,” Miller said. “And I couldn’t have sold my house four years ago.”

He and his wife, a real estate agent who’s not ready to stop working, have put off plans to sell their home in Monrovia, Md., and retire out of state, where they hope to pay lower taxes on a comparable home.

Staying at work longer might be the financially

savvy way to go anyway, financial planners say.

“Sometimes it’s OK for those who are happy in their jobs,” said Christopher Brown, president of Ivy League Financial Advisors in Rockville, Md. “Sometimes it’s painful.”

“The big question that each client asks as they prepare for retirement is, ‘Can I live the lifestyle I want to live without running out of money?’ “ Brown said. “When the market hit the skids in 2008, a lot of people’s retirement portfolios were really hurt. They want to build some cushion into their retirement if it happens again.”

Telecommuting Continues To Rise PGi, a technology company based in Atlanta, has worked one to two days from her home in Lawrenceville, Ga., sparing herself the one-hour commute each way. But after her 7-yearold son broke his leg, she shifted to working from home every day

By Helena Oliviero The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

T

wo years ago, Candace Ragsdale’s job changed in a way that seemed almost too good to be true.

She suddenly had more money, more time - and less stress.

Yet her job as a customer service representative with Chico’s clothing company was exactly the same. The only thing that changed was where she worked. She shifted from clocking in at an office about 25 minutes away to working at home in Dacula, Ga. “It was like a fairy tale,” said Ragsdale about the work setup.

Working on a specially equipped computer and phone, Ragsdale can perform her job duties just as she would at the Chico’s headquarters. In fact, today’s technology allows her supervisors to see a mirror image of her computer screen from a distance.

Telecommuting has been buoyed by advances in technology - from video conferencing to instant messaging to software allowing supervisors to see their employees’ every keystroke from miles away. From an environmental standpoint, every mile off the road reduces air pollution.

Telecommuting also offers benefits for the telecommuter: cost savings, from gas and wear and tear on the car to avoiding dry cleaning or restaurant meals; health benefits, from not having to battle bumperto-chrome traffic; and time savings from eliminating a commute.

Experts also say employers have a lot to gain, from saving costs on brick and mortar buildings to holding on to talented employees.

Experts also agree telecommuting isn’t for everyone. Some employees feel isolated and crave face-to-face contact with colleagues.

Working from home can blur the lines between work and home, making it difficult to turn “off.”

Earlier this year, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer informed staff they needed to show up at the office every day. The decision was largely seen not as the beginning of the end of workplace flexibility, but rather as a shifting of strategy at a struggling company out of step with the modern workforce.

But telecommuting is not gaining traction only for office jobs.

Even electricians and plumbers, who may have had to go to the office to do paperwork, are turning to teleworking for those tasks.

Tedra Cheatham, executive director of The Clean Air Campaign,

said her nonprofit has worked with about 250 companies for several years to start or expand telework programs. Working remotely, she said, requires planning and preparation. Employers need to clearly explain work goals and expectations, and have objective measures to evaluate performance.

Meanwhile, employees should never develop a sense of entitlement about telecommuting, she said. And, she added, employees should always be prepared to go to the office for face-to-face meetings even if they occur on days normally reserved for working at home.

Cheatham said it’s a good idea to start slow, such as one day every two weeks, and then build toward more regular telecommuting.

Elham Shirazi, a telework expert and consultant based in Los Angeles, said the bulk of telecommuters work remotely one to three days a week, but about a third of telecommuters do so five days a week.

For workers who telecommute, Shirazi said it’s critical to set up a designated, wellorganized work space and limit distractions.

Shirazi said some of her clients wear work badges at home to send a message to family that they are on the clock and should not be disturbed.

Increasingly, the work space is looking and acting the same - regardless of where it is.

On a recent afternoon in her front room of the house, Casey Kelly video-chats with colleagues, reviews shared documents and holds a meeting with several people - all via her laptop computer.

For years Kelly, an account manager with

temporarily. She credited one of her company’s products, iMeet, a virtual meeting product, with making the transition seamless.

“At first, after my son broke his leg, I needed to go to my son’s school a few times a day to help him out because he’s

in a wheelchair,” said Kelly. “The school is just around the corner. But imagine if I had to drive

from Buckhead every time. It would have been very difficult. I’ve been able to do my job from
