Tampa, FL (PRWEB) September 26, 2007 -- According to the well respected career industry organization, Borden Elliott & Pierce complaints from mortgage industry professionals are really expressions of fear for their future in the industry.

The Florida based career management firm has seen a dramatic increase in the number of people looking for work from the mortgage industry. According to a company spokesperson, "It's not just sub prime lenders. It's also some prime lenders and a host of people from the residential construction industry." In one office alone they have seen an increase from seeing one mortgage industry professional per month a year ago to seeing as many as six per week in recent months.

It's not just sub prime lenders. It's also some prime lenders and a host of people from the residential construction industry.

Borden Elliott & Pierce say that complaints from mortgage industry professionals involve the massive downsizing of offices and the closing of offices on a wide scale: "In the past anyone in the industry could simply make a move to another company within the mortgage industry. Now those other companies don't exist or they are not hiring."

For the first time in four years there has been a net loss in jobs in the mortgage industry nationwide. The company says that the people they are seeking their help are devastated over their loss and are now looking to change industries. For many it may be the only choice.

According to some reports the nation's largest mortgage lender is laying off 12,000 employees. "With so many layoffs and closings, we feel that the best option for most of these professionals is to look to other career options in other industries."

Borden Elliott & Pierce specialize in helping people who are in career transition: "We are accustomed to helping people navigate through unfamiliar situations. People who have been in one industry for many years have a difficult time envisioning themselves in other industries. If they can't picture themselves elsewhere, they'll never convince anyone else either. They need help for this sort of transition."

The company has offices in Tampa and Orlando Florida, with affiliated offices throughout the U.S. For more information about them visit their website at www.bepcflorida.com.
