How to Build a More Meaningful Career

The average person racks up at least 100,000 working hours over a lifetime. That means you spend more time in the office than you do in your own home and have more face time with your colleagues than your family or friends. Some of the most difficult decisions you’ll have to make will occur during business hours.

If you don’t love what you’re doing in your work life, then 85% of your time is only defined by a pay check. The hours outside of work with the people you love are the most important so in a way we’re all “working for the weekend,” but if you’re not present in the moment then you can’t have the career you want and deserve. How do you build a more meaningful career? Click Here to Read Article …

Top Three Mistakes that Keep You Unemployed

Nimish Thakkar 6th August Career Leave a Comment

Technically, there are hundreds of ways to sabotage (literally) a job search campaign, but for the purpose of this discussion, I will restrict myself to three common mistakes most job seekers make that keep them unemployed.

Over the past few months, I have observed a steady and measurable increase in the number of candidates finding “meaningful” employment opportunities. This is certainly a refreshing change from the horrendous unemployment stories we have heard since the 2008 Financial Debacle. Though positive, the outlook for the economy is still volatile and everything that goes into a job search campaign must be perfected to the n^th degree. Click Here to Read Article …

The Benefits of Working With Inspired People

Kayla Albert 30th July Career Leave a Comment

When I was hired on at a company I had never dreamed would look twice at me, I was immediately inspired to jump in headfirst. I worked tirelessly to make a good impression and help improve the product we were selling.

Job Hunting with Confidence

Bill White 25th July Career Leave a Comment

“Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.”

— Vince Lombardi

Sometimes we find inspiration in the strangest places.

A couple weeks ago I found myself transfixed to a CD recording of The Unemployed Millionaire by Matt Morris. At a certain point in the book, Morris recalls a conversation he had early in his career with a sales guru that was considered one of the best in the business. Morris quickly became a follower and sought every opportunity to learn everything he could about what made this special person tick. Click Here to Read Article …

Job rejection was out of question.

In her mind’s eye, she saw herself at her new desk doing amazing things for the company, all the while winning the admiration and respect of her new colleagues. The awards piled up, and the raises? Those just went without saying. Click Here to Read Article …
