San Francisco, Calif. (PRWEB) May 4, 2009 -- When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. That's what Human Resources professional and former employment law attorney, Y. Denyce Lofton has done since she was recently laid off in California where the jobless rate has soared to over eleven percent. Today, she launched IMLAIDOFF.info, an information resource for jobseekers dealing with everything related to the job search process and laid off workers. IMLAIDOFF.info offers subscribers a weekly e-newsletter, bi-weekly tips and regular teleseminars on topics relevant to laid off workers, including: resume and cover letter writing, interviewing, networking and post-interview techniques to help them quickly land their next job or determine their next steps. IMLAIDOFF.info also provides information about topics heavy on the minds of laid off workers such as legal updates on COBRA and health insurance for the unemployed and small business information for those seeking entrepreneurial endeavors.
"Laid off employees need to know how to write a great resume and cover letter, how to perform well in an interview, network, and negotiate salary when they finally get the job offer. The job search is a process and IMLAIDOFF.info helps job seekers in each step of the process," said Lofton. Many former employees are also seeking ways to produce income on their own. Self-employment is on the rise. "Laid off workers who want to become entrepreneurs need to understand the issues involved in running a small business. IMLAIDOFF.info provides this information," Lofton said. In addition, IMLAIDOFF.info offers the laid off facts to help navigate the maze of unfamiliar rules and regulations they must manage such as the unemployment process, COBRA, health insurance for the unemployed and much more.
IMLAIDOFF.info was established to provide an information resource for the laid off. In an effort to assist the unemployed during these difficult economic times, IMLAIDOFF.info has also set up a fund called Mortgage Makers to help laid off workers pay their mortgage or rent. IMLAIDOFF.info donates fifty cents of every subscription to the Mortgage Makers fund and awards the fund each month to a laid off worker who needs assistance with rent or mortgage.
