Jobless executives’ future looks up
be
United Press Internationa]
NEW YORK — It still may
easier to get a job when you have a
job, but for some executives, espe
cially in California, being out of
work doesn’t carry the stigma it
once did.
“Only two or three years ago
niiinv firms wouldn’t look at a re
sume from an executive who was out
of work. Now they are quite willing
to look at the reasons why the man
isn t working and perhaps interview
him and hire him,” said Richard
Kinser of the San Francisco office of
William H. Clark & Associates.
Herbert T. Mines of Business
Careers, Inc., New York, agreed.
Both Kinser and Mines said there
are two chief reasons why many
companies have had a change of
heart about jobless executives.
“The first reason is that we are
going through another big wave of
mergers and acquisitions with a lot
of good executives being displaced
through no fault of their own,”
Kinser added.
Mines agreed and added that em
ployers are finding that many good
executives simply prefer a mobile
life style which often leads to misad
venture that puts them out of work
temporarily.
The two headhunters said skyroc

mortgage interest rates have dis
couraged out-of-state executives
from coming west looking for jobs,
“In the early 1970s, executives
would even come out to California
on the chance of finding a good job
and would settle for a little less pay
than they could get in the East be
cause they were enchanted by (be
California life style,” said Kinser.
Both agreed this is a thing of the
past and said now it takes a big step
up to entice a good executive to
move to California from a secure job
elsewhere.
As a result, a California resident
with a good record who is out ofjob
and lives within any reasonable
commuting distance suddenly looks
rather attractive.
“The fellow’s record in the years
immediately before he lost his last
job is the critical factor,” Kinser
said.
“If he had simply been stagnating
in the same job for eight or ten
years, the average employer’s reac
tion to his resume is to toss it. Butif
he had been promoted in the last
year and a half or so or can show
good accomplishments, he may look
like a real find Ixith to the recruiter
and employers.”
A corollary to the situation, both
Kinser and Mines said, is that re
cruiters are being instructed by pro
spective California employers to
exhaust all local possibilities before
even hunting for out-of-state execu
tives.
Both conceded somewhat ruefully
that this has led to a lot of “stealing
your neighbor’s cook” tactics by ■
California firms needing new ex-|
perienced and aggressive executive
talent.
Kinser said the situation has got
ten so tough “it now takes a salary
increase of at least 30 percent and
lot of other financial help and in
ducements, particularly help in
finding a home and getting a mortg
age, ” to recruit someone from onto!

HERE'S ONE ENGINEERING OPPORTUNITY
YOU WON'T GET IN PRIVATE INDUSTRY.
If you’re thinking about a
technical position after gradua
tion, think about this.
How many companies can
offer you a nuclear submarine
to operate? The answer is none.
Equipment like this is available
only in one place—the Navy.
The Navy operates over half
the nuclear reactors in America.
So our training is the broadest
and most comprehensive. We
start by giving you a year of
advanced technical education.
In graduate school, this would
cost you thousands, but in the
Navy, we pay you.
Once you’re a commissioned
Nuclear Propulsion Officer,
you’ll earn a top salary. Over
$24,000 a year after four years.
And you’ll be responsible for some
of the most advanced equipment
developed by man.
The Navy also has other
opportunities in surface ships
and aviation assignments. If you
are majoring in engineering,
math or the physical sciences,
contact your placement office to
find out when a Navy representa
tive will be on campus. Or send
your resume to:
Navy Officer Programs,
Code 312-B379,
4015 Wilson Blvd.,
Arlington, VA 22203.
The Navy. When it comes to
nuclear training, no one can give
you a better start.
