3 Ways to Efficiently Make Your Resume Work for Everyone

Gerrit Hall 12th December Career Leave a Comment

    The job search is a lot like dating. As a job seeker, you research, improve, and put yourself out there through your resume so that the company of your dreams will find you. After a meeting or two, you either part ways or join in a mutually beneficial relationship called gainful employment.

    Just like dating, the company you’re wooing wants to feel special and wanted, not just for the money or perks, but for the overall experience.

    In both situations, the best way to do this is to learn about them and approach them in a tailored way. In your job search, this all begins with your resume. Click Here to Read Article …

    5 Tips and Tricks to Consider before Relocating

    Sarah Loyd 9th December Management Leave a Comment

      There is no question that certain places have a better economy than others. If you live in one of the not- so-great economy states, chances are your business lives there as well. This is where one can consider relocating.

      A not-so-great economy makes starting a small business much more difficult, and for this reason many businesses fall short of success. In this up and down economy, you want every advantage you can get when it comes to the success of your business. For many, this means relocating.

        Beat the Fear and Build Presentation Skills

        Presentation skills aren’t something that you’re born with. They are something that you can learn. Even that elusive quality called charisma can be nurtured and developed.

        After all, Barack Obama didn’t begin life making flowing speeches and Winston Churchill started out with a voice impediment. So there is hope for each and every one of us.

        Increasingly, presenting is something which we all have to tackle as part of our working lives. Whether it is direct presenting to a room full of expectant people, or remote presenting to a far off business partner via Skype or WebEx, or even one to one presenting at a job interview or sales pitch – presenting is a fact of modern life. So we really do need to learn to like it and build relevant presentation skills. Click Here to Read Article …
