I was layed off in
September. I live in California.
Because the outlook for finding a job
has not been promising,
I have returned to school and applied for retraining
benefits
through the EDD.
However, I have been turned down, becasue
according to the EDD,
"There is an adequate labor market for your existing
skills of
Circuit Board Designer".
I am planning to appeal the
decision.
What I need to know is:
1 - Do most designers know of
atleast one or more designers
that are currently out of
work?
2 - Of those that are out of work, have any of them lost
their
jobs to design departments outside of the United
States?
3 - Do you believe that there are currently less
design
positions now than one year
ago?
two years ago?
three years
ago?
Thanks for your help,
Karen Anne Cardwell
