This week is jobs week at NBC10; can video resumes really work?
Though the unemployment rate stayed steady at 8.3 percent during the month of February, employers added 227,000 jobs to the economy, surpassing economists’ expectations, reports the AP. With foreclosures back on the rise, and student loan debt surpassing credit card debt, NBC10 will spend this coming week helping readers and viewers strengthen their job-hunting skills.

Over the course of the week, NBC10 will be highlighting different topics:
Monday : Resume Help
Tuesday : Using Social Media for Job Search
