Even the news of the unemployment rate could play psychological games with jobs seekers, making them feel as though there is no hope. However, there are still many industries that are hiring. According to one article, those industries include health care, information technology, accounting and restaurants.

So keep your resume sharp and updated, and start looking at the industries that are ready to find and hire talent.
