May 22, 2010 - PRLog -- Whether you're in the food manufacturing, food processing, or food distribution biz. - or all of the above - guess what - brace yourself - this is a BIG DEAL!

However, certain hiring managers are using this situation to identify the very best sales talent in the pool - by the way - the pool is getting bigger!

This affects LA, MS, and FL the hardest out of the nation - plus, it affects every vendor, employee, manufacturer, and more that relys on this region for much of the fish production and more.

EMPLOYMENT UPDATE:


In addition to affecting birds, fish, and more - it also has strong and negative implications to the local employment throughout the Gulfcoast from shripers, to fishers, brokers, restaurant owners, to all those thousands in between.

How about the local markets, restaurants, and all the places around the US and globe that receive catches from the Gulf-based employees.

Mississippi and other Gulf-regional coastal states have suffered enough blows prior to this recent ecological hurdle - now things could go from bad to worse overnight.

One of the toughest challenges amidst the environmental, ecological, and economical concerns - remains - How can employers find the best talent - especially sales - when the market continues to be FLOODED with more and more people (many very qualified) looking for work?

BRIEF CASE STUDY:  Recent Mississippi Sales Rep. from Biloxi:

Robert Liberato is a seasoned entrepreneur with over 25 years of direct food, sales, purchasing, and leadership expertise.    Very recently, a major Food Company restructured and he found himself looking for a new sales position in the very industry that he's an expert in.  Bob says, "It's crazy to think that folks with decades of closing and purchasing skills are taking many many months to land their dream-jobs - I believe it's a matter of who you know.   I have been in the food industry since a teen ager and worked from the ground up . .  that's why I over-performed in sales - I have done everything from cut meat to cut huge sales deals for very large food proposals.   I'm looking for the right fit amidst a very very tough market that seems to be experiencing some of the biggest hurdles in history - I'm looking for a company where I can do what I've done for several decades now - double and triple sales and grow that division!  Due to the current employment situation in MS -   I'm flexible to work a strong position within food sales or possibly an employment position to assist my home-area and region.   We weathered multiple storms and Katrina too - we'll weather this crisis too!"
