How You Feel About Working From Home Has Nothing To Do With Anything By Nick S Ritchie

When someone says to me that they know they will come across the right business when it feels right, I have to shake my head and wonder, "Does this person run their entire life on emotion?" Are they always looking for something to feel just right before they will take the step forward to do what they really want? The funny thing is, that no business will ever feel just right because to evaluate a good business has nothing to do with emotion and everything to do with taking advantage of trends and timing, and being able to create leverage. So evaluating a business is what we are talking about here, and even if you decided on feeling to start your own home based business, chances are you would be entering into it with emotions on your arm and you would quit at the first feeling that things weren't going the way you expected. And think about this, when was the last time that you set a goal and everything went perfectly to plan as you expected? Never! This just doesn't happen. What I can guarantee you that will happen is that you'll have challenges. The same way when you first started learning how to ride a bike you had challenges; it was new and exciting, sure, but it was also a bit scary and you weren't sure if you would fall off or not, but you got back on that bike after a nasty fall and eventually you could ride it with no hands. The same thing applies to starting and running your own highly successful work from home business. You'll start out the same way everybody else does (or most people) with no experience (or very little) and you'll slowly (or quickly) but surely learn the skills to be successful. You can expect to just start right out of the gate really excited and operating on a dream cloud and have that same feeling with you the whole time you build. It's going to take effort, determination, and some consistency to learning that will help you reach your goals, as with anything in life. Do you think that when I first started the gym I was excited? Sure! But after my first week of workouts I was tired, and had no energy and that certainly wasn't what I expected, but you know what? I stuck at it, and I had huge success at turning my health and fitness results around and dropping the fat. Running your own business from home will require you to drop some fat. The type of fat that lingers around and causes you to always fail. I'm talking about old limiting beliefs and stuff that's up inside your head that has been challenging you in the past. When learning new skills, it's going to be fun, but it's also going to require you to stay consistent eve when you're not feeling 100% or at your best, because in order to get to be the best and think like the best, you'll need to exercise your mind. So decide today to stop evaluating businesses or what you're going to do in your life based upon how you feel about it, and start thinking about some of the key success factors that are needed as part of the recipe to creating a great tasting cake, or business!

Support Yourself in College By Tom Bodeep

For most students, college is the first taste of living your life independently as an adult. However, with independence comes the need for responsibility, and tuition, car payments and other bills have to be paid somehow. Many students choose to seek work in the retail or service industry, but these positions rarely relate to the student's actual desired, future career path. Clever students will quickly come to understand that seeking the experience relevant to what they want to do with their lives usually always pays off in the long run. To get more out of their job and start to grow a career for themselves, these students often turn to a staffing agency to find internships and other positions in their field of interest. Why Should You Work with a Staffing Service? Staffing services offer college students an excellent means of building a work history, while assisting them in making ends meet while in school. Temporary positions available through a staffing service can help college students to get a foot in the door at a company or in a field of interest. While any job a college student accepts may pay the bills, a student who works with a hiring agency to find temporary, part-time or seasonal work in their field will have a stronger resume to submit after graduation. On-the-job training and skills a student learns can give them a leg up on the competition when they move into their chosen fields. College should be the best four years of your life, a time to get a higher education while gaining new life experiences and enjoying yourself. Importantly, however, this is a crucial time when students should be discovering who they are and what all their life passions could possibly be. The groundwork for career choices are made during these years, and gaining employment through a staffing service (even if it is only for one season or only a temporary period) can help a student build a foundation from which their careers can be established. Take Action to Make Your Dreams Come True If there is a career path you are leaning toward, seek temporary employment through a staffing service. This will help you to see if the field and culture is a good fit for you before making a permanent decision. Find a professional and reliable staffing service in your area to make the most of your college years.

Established in 1980, TRC is one of the largest privately-held staffing firms in the country.

Preparing for an Interview for Any Job By Kevin J Murdaugh

Preparing for an interview can be life changing depending on the potential position you are interviewing for. With the state of the economy today and the status of the work force, it is imperative that job-seekers have an education on how to conduct themselves within an interview. There are many different factors that play into a potential employer's choice of a new hiree. Even if you're not as technically qualified for the position as some of the other candidates, how you present yourself can do wonders in setting you apart from the competition. - BE ON TIME! Heck, be EARLY for that matter. First impressions go a long way when first meeting your interviewer, and showing that you can put in the extra effort to be more than punctual will scream volumes, especially if you make it to a second interview- consistency says a lot. - Know the company you are interviewing for. Yes, people actually fail to recognize that it might be a deciding factor if you actually know what the company is about or not. Study everything from what the company specializes in, their mission statement, their key demographics (target market), their product lines, history, how they conduct business, reputation, as well as even developing an idea or two about where you see the company headed in the future. You will seem highly interested in the job as well as the company, and you won't look like a kiss-ass either. - Which brings me to my next point. DON'T be one of those guys or gals who feels it necessary to kiss- up to try to get ahead. A respectable employer will see right through this and may find you to be shallow and desperate. Show that you can stand your ground and have a mind of your own. Expressing disagreement in the right way at the right time will earn you respect, and this also demonstrates that you are a leader, not a follower. - Body language plays a huge role in interviewing as well. Ever heard that what you communicate is 93% what you don't say with your mouth, but with your body? Well, it's true! Practice having strong, relaxed posture and avoid fidgeting- this displays nervousness and a lack of confidence. Confident body language entails strong eye contact, a firm handshake, even paced movements, and a calm demeanor. Also, remember to keep your chin up as this also signifies confidence and leadership. All in all, you are trying to convey the message that you value yourself, and that you know what you can bring to the table. - Play to your strengths. Don't deny your weaknesses, but be willing to express that you don't know something if you truly don't know something. If this is the case, then also make it clear that you are very willing to learn and are capable of doing so. I find learning to be fun, and this kind of ambition is imperative, especially in the upper-echeleon jobs. On the same token, know what you are really good at and what you can offer to the specific position you are interviewing for as well as the company as a whole. Know the position you are interested in and what it's duties are and be able to recite them- you will most like be asked about them. - Preparing for an interview is about more than what you know, sometimes it's about WHO you know. If you have connections within the company, USE THEM! Don't brag about being tied in with a higher up if that's the case, but when the opportunity presents itself (such as being asked if you know anyone, or if when you are asked about your knowledge of the company, now would be a good time to make your connections known) humbly interjected your friend's name. It could go a long way. - One of the most obvious points- dress well! Dress as professionally as you can and dress for the part. Obviously a suit and tie wouldn't be necessary for a job at say, Target, but looking clean, smelling clean, and wearing matching clothes that fit well play the biggest part in presentation. - My final point- be confident. Know who you are, where you come from, and what you're about. Be well spoken and well rehearsed. Preparing for an interview will help you to feel more confident, as you will have a plethora of skills and knowledge at your disposal. Knowing what's expected ahead of time will help to alleviate any anxiety or nervousness you may have about the interview.

Do you have any questions of your own? Come up with a few questions of your own and seem as interested as possible. Also, find out what your potential employer can offer YOU, as you will be spending a fair amount of time there should you get the position, and this type of inquiry makes the interview seem a little less one- sided.

Your Career in the New Year: Three Resolutions Worth Keeping By Kristen M Harris

I love a new year! It always feels so filled with possibility. It's a fresh start and time to try something new. Instead of the same old resolution to lose ten pounds, exercise every day, or give up chocolate (gasp), this year make some resolutions worth keeping. Here are three ideas that will make a difference in your career over the next year, and for many years to come. Gain new skills. In the creative industry we can never stop learning. Today individuals are responsible for the growth of their own skills and career; an employer may help fund or provide learning opportunities, but you are responsible for guiding your own growth. Stay up-to-date (ideally on the cutting edge) of what's going on in your industry and your discipline. Take a class, learn new software, or build complementary skill sets. Learning comes in all shapes and sizes, from formal to informal. There are great classes offered at local schools, community centers, and through our Illumination Bureau. Informally, you can also learn from peers, other industry group members, at a presentation, or in a seminar. Creativity often happens when you try something new, something outside of your discipline. Go to an architecture presentation, take a cooking class, learn to weld. You never know where inspiration and ideas will come from, or how you'll use that skill in the future. Connect with inspiration. To be interesting, be interested. Read everything, research a new idea, go to an exhibition, listen to a speaker, watch a movie, or just walk around your neighborhood. There is content, information and data everywhere. In fact, it often feels overwhelming; you'll never be able to read or consume everything available. Choose a few interesting blogs, newsletters, Facebook pages, or publications to follow. Every so often allow yourself to follow an interesting path down the rabbit hole. Click, click, click... suddenly you're exposed to artwork you've never seen or are reading an author you've never heard of. The joy of discovery can lead to fresh inspiration. Meet interesting people. The creative industry is a tight ecosystem, it always seems like everyone knows everyone else. At your next industry event, make a point of talking to someone you don't know. Interesting conversations happen with people who are different from you. Attend events for your industry, or for another industry you are drawn to. Find a hobby or an organization to get involved with, related to your professional discipline or not. Connect, or re-connect with former teachers, supervisors, classmates or co-workers. Find someone you consider a mentor (formal or informal, really a mentor is just someone you respect and can learn from). Meet to chat with them periodically. By focusing attention on one or more of these areas, you'll have an intriguing and engaging new year while building skills, experience, inspiration, and connections that will serve you well for years to come. Kristen is co-founder and owner of Portfolio Creative, an Inc. 5000 fastest growing firm for the past four years. Portfolio Creative connects clients with talent in all areas of design, marketing, communications and advertising and was ranked the 16th fastest growing staffing firm in the U.S. by Staffing Industry Analysts.

Job Search Tips And Ideas For Job Seekers By Crystal J Casavant

All of us appreciate support, encouragement, and tips when we are job hunting. Knowing that you are not alone and there are resources to help can really increase your confidence. Good luck in your search and may your future be as bright as you are. If you know people in the field you want to be in, ask for a referral or introduction. You've heard about the fabulous pay and great benefits for County and State jobs, know where to find them and use any and all tools available in your area. Set yourself apart and use the internet differently than the competition by having job openings emailed directly to your inbox and using company websites to educate yourself on the mission and vision the organization. Ask plenty of questions before, during, and after the interview, and always do your home work so you aren't wasting your time or that of the human resource professional you are speaking with. If you know people in the field you want to be in, ask for a referral or introduction. o "________, I've heard good things about your company and you seem to like it, right? Who would I talk to about floating my resume?" o "________, I haven't seen anything that Company XYZ is hiring, but do you happen to know anyone in HR you could put me in touch with?" County and State jobs are coveted - know where to find them. Set up your profile and find out what's out there that may be a dream come true for you! o See if your State and/or County has a website for their job postings (try googling the name of the state and the word jobs - same thing for the county) Set yourself apart - use the internet differently than the competition. o Use the Job Center website if your State or County offers this helpful tool and have your resume and cover letter ready to go. o Have Job Center jobs matched to you and emailed directly to your inbox. o If you have a social networking profile, tidy it up a bit... foul language and drinking pics should be taken down - you don't want to send the wrong message. o If you have your resume on multiple sites, make sure it's the same or similar on each. If you update one, update all of them. Ask Questions. (Before, During, or After the interview it's important to ask questions. If you aren't sure what to ask - here are some examples:) How would you describe the company culture/work environment? What type of employees tend to excel at this company? What qualities are you looking for in your new hires? Can you tell me more about the interview process? What is your turn over rate for the type of position I am interested in? What type of training do you offer? How often do you provide reviews and feedback? What are the most important skills for the job? How would you describe your ideal candidate? What are the three key skills/strengths vital to this position? Do your home work. o Most companies have a website with important information about the company and if you're lucky - information for job seekers. The Shiny Sparkly Resume! If a car on a car lot doesn't look shiny and impressive, you'll likely drive by without checking the sticker. Your resume works the same way - if your resume doesn't catch the employers attention you will not get the phone call or the interview much less the job. Make sure your resume is shiny and sparkling! Choose Resume Words Carefully / Surpassed vs. Completed o Anyone can complete a task - surpassing expectations shows that you went above and beyond. Catch the readers attention and capture interest by using strong words to describe your accomplishments: Sample Headlines o Dedicated ______ professional with ___ years of experience in _______ o An accomplished _____ professional with proven entrepreneurial success and expertise in ___________ o Talented _____ professional with over ___ years of experience providing outstanding support to ____________ Sample Qualifications o Extensive hands on experience in ______ o Diverse _ skills with exceptional __ background in _________ o Fluent understanding and extensive experience managing _____ o Thrive in deadline-oriented, fast paced situations Focus on: How you saved the company time or money, How you problem solve, How you use your creativity, How you initiate change and develop others, How you use your skills, How you work successfully with a team. Submit Your Resume/Application Always read the fine print and submit your resume/application just ask the employer specifies (ie: if they tell you to fax... don't email - if they request a resume and cover letter, don't forget the cover letter, etc... ). Make sure your resume is short and sweet, to the point, and impressive! Follow Up Follow up with a phone call or a card (yes, the kind you mail... set yourself apart) The follow up should be short and sweet - if you send a card, it could say: Thank you for considering me for the _____ position with company XYZ; I am looking forward to meeting with you. Please call me at ____ and we can schedule a phone interview or face to face meeting. Prepare for the Interview Make your list of traits, skills, and abilities Story Format Stories Should... Describe a challenging situation Describe a difficult decision Describe your strengths Describe your successes Describe your weaknesses Describe a time when the result was not what you planned for Don't Forget to Ask Questions? When the potential new employer asks: "Do you have any questions?" your answer should always be a quick "yes" - and go back to those questions you had ready during the job search: THANK YOU! The potential new employer will thank you - but be sure to thank them for their time too. Then... follow up with a thank you card (yes the kind you mail - it will set you apart from other applicants) Are you looking for Crystal's style of Executive partnering?
