Steps Defined For Those Losing Jobs Chicago 0P Practical steps can be taken when a person loses a job, according to Lon D Barton of Cadillac association. One of the first things that should be done, he said, is to evaluate the problem through slow, personal analysis. Define the problem and then look at the areas where the person has experience. Prepare a message to various firms in those areas, Barton said, and try to show that a gen uine interest exists. Barton said that a person has to sell himself on every inter view but warns not to be "des perate." Employers shy away from men desperately looking for a job, he added. It's best to start developing the right opening as soon as pos sible, he said, but it usually takes a minimum of 60 to 80 days to find the right job.
