A healthy work environment and flexibility are now highly influential factors that drive jobseekers in 2022, according to a study by CareerAddict.com.

NEW YORK – October 6, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

A recent study by CareerAddict, a leading, online career resource, has uncovered the latest job search trends in today’s post-pandemic era. The ‘Shift in Worker Expectations Post-Pandemic‘ study aims to explain the elements that comprise the driving force behind the Great Resignation, a term coined by organizational psychologist Anthony Klotz to describe the high, ongoing quit rates around the world.

A significant finding of the study was that 71% of jobseekers agreed that COVID-19 changed the type of work they were looking for. Among the main reasons for this collective shift in direction were the increased desire for flexibility and concerns around health, safety, and hygiene.

As Christopher Thoma, Head of Media & Marketing at CareerAddict, stated, “Prior to the pandemic, a healthy work environment wasn’t much of a consideration for most workers. Fast forward to 2022, it’s become an incredibly important factor…”

The survey also found that 60% of employees left their jobs in search of healthier work environments. Low pay, a lack of advancement opportunities, and feeling disrespected were the top reasons for job dissatisfaction. These factors fueled the Big Quit momentum even at a time of increased uncertainty caused by COVID-19. According to the data, 41% of jobseekers were not hindered by COVID-19 in their efforts to find better opportunities.

While this was anticipated, a surprising conclusion derived from the study was that 61% of jobseekers said the opportunity to work remotely was not a job search factor for them. Unlike previous years, remote work seems to no longer be considered as an important benefit by employees. The only age group that expressed a preference were jobseekers aged between 55 and 64, with 59% stating that remote work had been a search criterion in their job search.

As the job market undergoes notable changes, companies must continuously reassess their approach to hiring. While COVID-19 caused many people to reevaluate their needs and priorities, both on a personal and professional level, good pay, a healthy work environment, and progression opportunities are now the most desirable employment factors for jobseekers.

It appears that companies that fail to reward and value their staff will not only fail to attract new talent but also lose the fight against plummeting retention rates.

Award-Winning, Black-Owned GO3 Vodka Celebrates History, Friendship, and Rich, Small Batch Flavor in Houston

HOUSTON – September 30, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Jubilee Spirits, a new Black-owned, Houston-based premium alcohol and spirit company, has brought a rare treat for vodka drinkers to market with General Orders No.3 (GO3) Vodka; Texas’ first craft distilled sweet potato vodka, blended and bottled in Houston.

GO3 Vodka was recently awarded the Silver Medal at the 2022 New York World Wine & Spirits Competition. The new handcrafted vodka offers a rich, full-bodied flavor, with refreshing buttery notes and a mild hint of sweet caramel that combine to form a super smooth, luxury vodka experience.  The ultra-premium 80 Proof vodka, small batch distilled in the heart of Houston’s 5th Ward, is a sweet potato vodka blended with russet potatoes and Texas sweet corn. 

“The sweet potatoes bring a richer body and a slightly earthy, delicate sweetness to the flavor that really sets it apart from other grain and potato vodkas on the market,” said Jubilee Spirits Co-founder Ron Lockett II. “The flavor and velvety texture of GO3 gives it a versatility that makes it perfect for sipping neat, on the rocks, and in martinis, as well as an excellent go-to for both sweet and savory cocktails.”  

The Vodka’s brand name, General Orders No.3, and its distinctive bottle, pay homage to the historical moment on June 19, 1865, when emancipation was finally realized for enslaved African Americans in the state of Texas. 

The award-winning small batch vodka was founded by a small group of African American entrepreneurs with diverse backgrounds and careers, brought together through college, friendship, and family, to create a product with purpose in an industry with very few Black-owned brands. The collective group, who are graduates of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) including Texas Southern University, Prairie View A&M, and Wiley College, along with graduates of The University of Texas at Austin, University of Houston, and Cornell, wanted to create a high-end, ultra-premium vodka that celebrated freedom, heritage, and culture, while simultaneously giving back to the institutional foundations that have contributed to their successes. With that mission top of mind with every batch produced, Jubilee Spirits donates 8.65 percent of all GO3 Vodka net proceeds back to historically Black colleges and universities.

GO3 Vodka, Jubilee Spirits’ first ultra-premium product, made its debut on Juneteenth 2022 and is currently available at over 100 liquor retail stores and in bar and restaurant locations throughout Texas, with plans for nationwide distribution in the coming months.
