New employees fresh out of college should be full of enthusiasm and ready to work. Sadly, quite a few of them are a little bit anxious and depressed. It is because of the college debt they are forced to carry. Many of them have tens of thousands of dollars in loan debt which needs to be paid. They’re also afraid of what this payment could due to their credit rating. It is not easy to start out in the business world, and it is made much harder when college debt hangs over your shoulders.

The problems are not as great as they may seem, but a young person does not have enough experience to understand that. They also rely a lot on hearsay and secondhand information. It can cause them to enter into debt payment arrangements which are not in their best interests. An employer who wants these young people to succeed in careers is willing to lend a helping hand. The best way to do this is with a financial wellness benefit program.

Learning About All the Various Options

There is more than one way to skin a cat and certainly more than one option for paying college debts. There is always the traditional loan repayment, but there’s also loan forgiveness programs and student loan consolidation. It is often the case the young graduate does not know all of the options. Countrywide Pre-Paid Legal Services wants to help a new college graduate see the light at the end of the tunnel. We have a financial wellness benefit that can bring a lot of relief to a troubled mind.

We have debt counselors available who will sit down with a plan member and go over all of the possibilities. This becomes a team effort with a counselor giving the right amount of coaching to the individual. It doesn’t take long before that heavy burden becomes easier to carry. As all of the payment options are outlined, the way out of the wilderness is plainly seen. We expect all of our counselors to give the best financial wellness advice possible. This means answering all questions honestly, and offering the kind of financial advice that produces results.

There is a twofold benefit to all of this. A financial wellness plan member is directed towards what works best when it comes to repaying the debt. The employer also has the benefit of an enthusiastic worker who is not preoccupied with debt worries. Instead, that person is working on projects and learning new skills. The help from the employer is appreciated and that can translate into a good employee staying with the company for an even longer period of time.
