Career Site Climber.com Asks, How Much has Your Unemployment Cost You?

May 23, 2010 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
According to the Dept. of Labor, the average job seeker is out of work for 33 weeks. Most job seekers do not have an idea of the real long term financial impact this has on their savings and retirement plans. For Climber.com's career professionals, this means a loss of income of more than $20,000 depending on their individual state unemployment contributions.

Today, Climber.com announces the release of the Unemployment Calculator (http://www.unemployment-calculator.com) which enables the unemployed to accurately figure out the impact of their current situation. "By entering some simple data points, a job seeker can quickly understand what their unemployment has cost them," stated Mike O'Brien CEO of premium career site Climber.com.

The Unemployment Calculator works by allowing a user to enter their current or last salary, their state and the number of weeks they have been unemployed. It then instantly calculates the total loss of income and graphically displays future potential losses up to one year of being unemployed.
