Don’t give your un/under-employed friends advice. Find them work instead.

Here’s the reformatted job posting (though this appears to be a blog post rather than a job listing, I’ve extracted the substantive "job-related" content from the narrative as if it were a role description for a networking/referral opportunity):

If you know someone who is unemployed or under-employed, don’t just offer advice—actively help them find work by connecting them with opportunities.

How to help

  • Reach out to your network and identify people who could meet with your friend.
  • Frame the introduction as a favor to you: “There’s someone you need to meet; take my word for it.”
  • Schedule concrete meetings (breakfast, coffee, lunch) rather than vague offers.
  • Position yourself as an unpaid recruiter—clarify your motives if questioned.

Impact

  • Direct action (e.g., filling a calendar with meetings) can immediately alleviate stress and anxiety.
  • Long-term outcomes improve when someone is pulled into opportunities rather than left to navigate alone.

Example approach: Call contacts and say, “This person is returning to the U.S. soon—would breakfast, coffee, or lunch work best for you to meet them?”
