Change the way companies hire "Glassdoor expects employers to focus on hiring candidates who closely match the company’s values and goals, and who can weather a recession. This might mean letting go of candidates who are not, potentially opening up new hiring possibilities for the right people."
Allow for flexible work schedules "On the other side of recession fears, companies may allow employees greater flexibility such as telecommuting, part-time employees, outsourcing and gig-style jobs. For candidates who don’t want to work full time or always in an office, there may be more jobs that meet flexible needs."
