Call for course informationEven with the bad economy and weak job growth, there are still several fields that will survive - and possibly even thrive - during hard times.
The analysts at CareerBuilder.com say that at least five industries keep expanding their hiring so if you’re looking for a job, here are some that are relatively recession-proof.
So don’t give up if you’re job hunting. There are plenty of fields where the opportunities are still out there.

Retail medicine and new healthcare models will continue to evolve creating new opportunities for innovative professionals. Many best practices and skills learned in other industries are transferrable to healthcare and can lead to real innovation. For example, the semiconductor industry has several best practices that if applied in healthcare would lead to higher quality and lower cost.
Perhaps, there will be a day that we will enjoy a luxury stay in one of the Trump hotels and receive world-class heatlhcare.

In my country, exploitation of gheotermal energy Kutnjak-Lunjkovec, 10 km from my town, will generate some 900 new work places.

I also think that creative people have an advantage over many other fields, your job is less likely to be outsourced overseas. Marketing and advertising rely on understanding the customer and current culture, that's not something that can be easily captured by those outside the culture regardless of proficiency in a given language. The key here is adapting to the medium that technological advances bring about.
Its a gamble either way, but you got to make a choice. A decision at this time would mean a big difference, possibly billions. I am not denying the fact that "The Apprentice" is a very good show, but it can only take you so far. Do you have any other cards up your sleve that would catapault you a step further at this difficult time?
I do respect your great contributions to the world of business, however, lets face the fact, not every business will be successful. Times change and so do people.
Think out of the box Donald !

Don't be so naive, ask the workers on any plant that's been closed down if their attitude and work ethic might have saved their jobs.
What does matter is that people retrain, upskill and keep their eye on the big picture. Hard when you're just trying to survive though.
Most of the people reading this site will be operating at a higher level than that so hopefully they have the skills to read the opportunities and react. But it still requires the effort of upskilling and taking risks.

Good people can find a job in almost any economy. It's the marginal performers who are hurt worst in a downturn.

I have seen as Mike says, with a good attitude and diligence, some people can fend off and even profit from these tough times. Upskilling is essential no doubt about it. The people who stay in these time are those not only who have a positive attitude, but those who can PRODUCE.
I have also seen times as you say, where despite everything, you lose a job do to an industry wide slowdown or other occupation changing event. In the 70's, I don't care how good of an attitude you had as a steel worker, you likely were laid off. It is hard to upskill when the entire factory goes under.
The good news is that it gets you into your next gig more quickly and at a higher rate.
