The answer is unequivocally NO!!!!! Finding a job is hard enough without having to overcome the obvious question that most companies will wonder, “If you are so great, why are you unemployed?” Now you and I know both know that there are many reasons that you could be unemployed that have nothing to do with your competence or past performances. Consolidations, buy outs and mergers are just a few. Regardless, being unemployed is one more objection you will have to handle to move to the next step in the interview process. If you do find yourself unemployed, understand that it will be an obstacle that you need to identify and address very early in the hiring process.
