Fifth Third Bank has an innovative program where it teams up with employment firm NextJob, Inc., to assist mortgage borrowers who have missed two consecutive mortgage payments because of a change in their job status.

Launched back in 2012, the ReEmployment program offers participants 16 weeks of online job hunting help, resume assistance and one-on-one phone coaching.

The cost to Fifth Third Bank for the program? A reported $1,500 per participant. Contrast that with the more than $50,000 the bank can lose every time it forecloses on a mortgage!

Struggling with the career question in your life? Consider this…

Find an employer that’s known to pay a higher wage

There is a targeted trend of some high-profile companies willingly paying more to lower-income workers, according to the Wall Street Journal. Chase has announced a pay increase for 18,000 workers to at least $12 an hour. Starbucks also stepped up to the plate with a minimum 5% pay hike for it employees this year.

Costco, meanwhile, is known to pay some of the highest wages in all of retail.

Look for fringe benefits, particularly education

Maybe you can’t jump ship to a different employer right now. If that’s the case, are you taking advantage of all the perks your current employer is offering? Even fast-food restaurants are now offering tuition reimbursement to subsidize your education. Taking advantage of these kinds of programs can put you on track to a new, higher paying career.

Get yourself ‘upskilled’

The key is to find an employer willing to ‘upskill’ you. A good starting point is the National Fund for Workforce Solutions website and their list of regional collaboratives in 24 states.
