"But when Michelle told him how long she had been out of work, the headhunter turned apologetic: His client, he said, wouldn't accept people who had been unemployed for more than six months"

"Job-placement professionals say that over the last year, more and more employers have made it clear they won't consider job candidates who aren't working. "A lot of our recruiters have had clients who have come across this," Matt Deutsch of TopEchelon.com, which brings recruiters together to collaborate in finding jobs for candidates, told The Lookout, calling the practice "unfortunate."

"Some employers have said they're unwilling to hire unemployed workers because they believe that if a worker has once been let go, that's a sign that he or she is probably not a great hire. "People who are currently employed … are the kind of people you want as opposed to people who get cut, one recruiter told the Atlanta Journal Constitution in October"

I encounter this blatant discrimination every day in job postings where it says only current or recent experience. This is ridiculous. How are we ever going to get a job with no recent job experience. I send resumes, call recruiters, network and still cannot find work. This is just too much. That these employers are able to get away with these types of practices.
