Rather than comment directly on the article, I'm going to give my advice on How To Get A Job Right Now.
1. Decide what you want to do. Don't say "I'll do anything." Be extremely specific about the type of job you want. (You can change your mind, but again, NEVER say you'll do "anything." That translates as "has no useful skills.")
2. Locate companies in your area that employ for this position.
3. Start making phone calls and sending emails to the company owner or manager. Forget about responding to ads for jobs and sending resumes blindly. That doesn't work. (Many ads are placed for compliance purposes or fishing expeditions and thus do not correspond to an actual job on offer.)
4. The really important part. Every time you get a "no" get a referral or two. Keep expanding your call list via referrals.
5. Within 100 phones calls, you will have a job. Make every call sincere and productive and you might only need to make 20.
