 There are plenty of job vacancies in Wisconsin, but if you're coming off a job in a specialized field, it may be hard getting a new position. Department of Workforce Development Section Chief Scott Hodak says you might need to consider a change to get back in the workforce. Maybe you were laid off from a job where you were doing that one specialty and there just aren't a lot of those jobs there. They might necessitate moving. It might necessitate reskilling or upskilling.
