Unemployment occurs when the jobs available are not enough for the people in a country or in a certain region. This is why it is always important for the authorities and people that can create job opportunities need to know ways by which they can tackle this problem. Just chanting there are no jobs wouldn't solve any problem since job creation is of immense benefits not only to the people that are job seekers but even to the society. So how can job opportunities be created so that there will jobs available for a lot of people.

Creation and promotion of local industries: Individuals and government needs to create industries that will employ people to work. The more industries the more people would be employed

Make laws that will lure foreigners and investors to invest in the country: This is another avenue that can help with creating job opportunities. As foreign investors come in to start a business the locals will be employed to I work

Provisions of cheap credit to deserving individuals: They are people that can start their own businesses and grow it to employ others. All they need is provision of capital at a low interest rate. So this should be provided.

How else can job opportunities be created?

Those are very good ways of creating job opportunities that you have mentioned. They work so well in giving people a chance to work and earn which is so rare to get in this generation. If countries could employ these strategies, then I am sure that more people especially the youths would get jobs.

I love the idea of encouraging the building of industries and factories. They are so great at creating job opportunities to people and giving a country a source of revenue. So countries should be better at encouraging the coming up of these industries and organizations that could hire people.

It is great for countries to provide capital for those people who have ideas on businesses or industries that they could startup. Supporting them would be so great because when they are established, they will create job opportunities for many people.

Encouraging help from foreigners is also so great. There are so many foreign organizations which are ready to support startups and even make some branches of what they are doing in their country to this new country. For example, a company doing well in one country may want to establish itself in a foreign country and so they will create a new branch in the country. That is so good as jobs are created in the new country that they expand into.

Creation of job opportunities is a pretty tough topic and there are so many economists and experts who have emphasized on creation of job opportunities due to the fact that unemployment is growing in the world and the problem of poverty is a well-known problem in the world.

Utilization Of natural Resources Can Create Jobs

There are so many countries in the world that are quite rich. The Republic of Congo is one of the richest countries in the world, but sill it is facing so much problems because it is a kind of a country that is not utilizing its natural resources in a proper manner. using natural resources could create more job opportunities.

External Sources

There are many external sources that could also help to create job opportunities in a country. For example, conducting businesses with foreign countries and increasing exports could also increase foreign reserves in a country and this could also indirectly reduce poverty.

Managing The Economy

One of the biggest reasons why countries like Sri Lanka are struggling right now is because the government failed to manage economy in a proper manner. Corruption is also one of the biggest reasons why many countries are not able to manage economy. If we manage the economy in a better way, we can create more job opportunities.

As a job seeker, you want to make sure that your resume is up-to-date and relevant. You also want to ensure that you are applying for the right jobs and submitting your resume in a way that gets employers' attention.

While there is no "one size fits all" approach to finding a job, there are some general strategies that will help you get noticed by employers. Here are some tips on how to increase job opportunities for job seekers:

1) Edit your resume regularly: Keep your resume up-to-date by editing it every time you receive feedback from an employer or recruiter. This way, any new skills or experiences will be included on the document and can be used in your cover letter or during an interview.

2) Use keywords in your resume: Employers look for specific words when hiring new employees, so make sure yours includes them as well! These could include "communications," "marketing," "engineering," etc., but they should be relevant to the position being sought.

3) Tailor each application individually: Make sure that every application package is customized for each opportunity instead of sending out one generic cover letter and resume to every company listed as "interested." This helps show employers just how interested you are.
