GREENVILLE, SC (FOX Carolina) - Hiring signs up all over downtown Greenville with businesses hoping that people feel safe and ready to come back to work as we continue moving toward our new normal. We are looking into what businesses are anticipating and what experts on job hunting say you need to do if you are looking. While walking in downtown Greenville, I saw sign after sign that business is picking back up after businesses were forced to close or downsize last year. Kristin Kay, Wild Flower Cupcake and Dessert Bar, says, "We’re getting so busy now and we are about to go into a busy season that I know I’m going to have to hire and I’ve heard… word on the street is that it’s kind of hard right now." This dessert shop is no exception, even with a small staff they hope it won't take too long to find someone when they need it. Kay says she's "fearful that I am about to go through that. I’ve kept a small staff, during this. We kind of do in general but especially during this." A recuriter gave me a few tips for job seekers: -Get resume reviewed by professional -Turn on LinkedIn and/or Google alerts about job postings -If actively applying, keep voicemail clear in case you miss a call. -Look into multiple employment agencies Kristin Kay says this influx could work in the job seekers favor. "Now people are hiring again, I think that is kind of having your cake and eating it too because you might get to have make a choice… it’s not just kind of settling for the first thing that comes along," Kay says. <a href="https://www.godshall.com/2021/01/tips-for-virtual-interviews/" target="_blank">Tips for virtual interviews.</a> <a href="https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/finding-a-job/job-hunting-tips" target="_blank">Job hunting tips.</a> <a href="https://www.godshall.com/2020/12/deck-your-resume-with-boughs-of-skills/" target="_blank">Tips for resumes.</a>
First GOP member of Congress calls on Matt Gaetz to resign
on April 9, 2021 at 2:12 am
Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger became the first congressional Republican to call on his colleague from Florida, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/08/politics/matt-gaetz-florida-republican/index.html" target="_blank">Rep. Matt Gaetz</a>, to resign in the face of a <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/08/politics/greenberg-gaetz/index.html" target="_blank">federal investigation</a> into sex trafficking allegations. "Matt Gaetz needs to resign," Kinzinger <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamKinzinger/status/1380334741682073603?s=20" target="_blank">tweeted</a> Thursday night, linking to a Daily Beast article about allegations against Gaetz, the details of which CNN has not confirmed. The moderate Illinois Republican has been <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/09/politics/adam-kinzinger-illinois-voters/index.html" target="_blank">a frequent critic of his own party</a>, especially its embrace of Donald Trump and the former President's lies about election fraud. No charges have been brought against Gaetz, and he has denied all allegations against him. Staring down those allegations, the Florida Republican has been reaching for a familiar, in-your-face strategy perfected over the last four years by Trump, who fueled his unconventional rise. Hours after news of the investigation went public, he went on Fox News to deny any wrongdoing and claim he was the victim of an elaborate extortion scheme. Then he wrote an <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/rep-matt-gaetz-oped-the-swamp-is-out-to-drown-me-with-false-charges-but-im-not-giving-up" target="_blank">op-ed</a> declaring he "absolutely" would not resign. Gaetz's campaign sent out fundraising pleas blaming the media for trying to take him down. Few GOP allies are speaking out on his behalf, and most Republicans have been keeping quiet, as the federal investigation hangs over his head. Federal investigators are seeking to determine whether Gaetz was provided travel and women in exchange for political favors as part of a broader probe, people familiar with the investigation <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/08/politics/matt-gaetz-bahamas/index.html" target="_blank">tell CNN</a>. The investigation includes scrutiny of a trip to the Bahamas and whether women were paid to travel for sex with the Florida Republican congressman and others, a potential federal crime, according to the sources. CNN has previously reported that investigators also have been examining allegations that Gaetz had sex with an underage girl who was 17 at the time and with other women who were provided drugs and money in violation of sex trafficking and prostitution laws. Lawyers for Gaetz declined to comment. <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/matt-gaetz-bahamas-trip-federal-probe-sex-trafficking/" target="_blank">CBS News</a>, which first reported on the trip to the Bahamas, was told by a spokeswoman: "Rep. Gaetz has never paid for sex, nor has he had sex with an underage girl. What began with blaring headlines about 'sex trafficking' has now turned into a general fishing exercise about vacations and consensual relationships with adults." Investigators are considering Gaetz's connections to several associates in Florida who may have benefited politically in return for providing the congressman with benefits including escorts, travel and campaign donations, according to the sources. The investigation includes allegations from witnesses and other evidence that Gaetz may have used cash and drugs in his dealings with young women, CNN previously reported.
