Make em READ Your Cover Letter Using This Killer Secret!Article Category : Job Seekers Got your attention? Great. That was my intention. Who wouldn’t want to read on when the title promises a ‘killer secret.’If I hadn’t nabbed you in the first three seconds, however, I’d have lost you. People read and decide just like that. A job interviewer does the same thing. Read and toss. Read and toss. But that doesn’t have to happen to your cover letter. You can grab and keep his or her attention with a smashing title or headline. This technique is one of the best-kept secrets in the career industry. Most job-hunters focus on their credentials, instead of focusing on the hiring manager they want to meet in person. Make him or her read your complete cover letter from start to finish without blinking. How does this little secret separate your cover letter from all the others? Great question! The answer? Most people don’t know about it, so they can’t use it. But now you know, so by putting a powerful headline at the top of your cover letter, it will rise to the top of the pile on the interviewer’s desk. In fact, he or she may stop right there, and ignore the other letters. It can lead to the appointment you’re after and the job you want. What happens if you skip it? Your cover letter might hit the trash can faster than you’d hear these dreadful words, “thanks, but no thanks.” You can avoid this disaster by creating a hot headline that will assure your cover letter the attention it deserves. If you’re trying to land a job interview, what could be more important than pinning the reader to your every word? He or she will want to shake your hand, discuss the job opening, and possibly make it yours. Anyone with your creativity will be a ‘keeper.’ Convinced? I hope so. Here’s what to do. Just above the greeting in your cover letter (Dear Mrs. Smith), place your ‘killer’ headline in bold-face print and center it on the page. (Two lines maximum). Here are THREE examples of excellent cover letter headlines: THE reason why I think I’m the right candidate for the job opening of [insert job opening title here] at [company name]. Why I believe I’m an excellent match for the position of [insert job opening title here] at [company name]. I would love the opportunity to be interviewed for the position of [insert job opening title here] at [company name]. With a headline like one of the above, what do you think the hiring manager will do? He or she will read, decide, and call you for an appointment. Exercise the ‘muscle’ of a strong headline at the beginning of your next job-search cover letter and watch your calendar fill up with interviews for the job that is just right for you.

Article Category : Resume Presentation Good News for Employers wishing to change the terms of employment of employees, however, employers must still take care.In Scott & Co v Richardson [2005], the Dependant, Mr Richardson, who worked for a Scottish firm of debt collectors, refused to accept his new terms of employment which required him to visit defaulting debtors during the evenings. Mr Richardson agreed to work evenings but only if this would continue to attract overtime payments as had previously been the case. Scott & Co tried for seven months to persuade Mr Richardson to change his mind but he refused, finally issuing an ultimatum that his employer should either accept his position or dismiss him. They chose to dismiss him. At first instance, Scott & Co claimed that the change in working conditions was required to bring the company into line with new market practices and to allow them to plan work more cheaply and effectively. Mr Richardson argued that Scott & Co had failed to prove that there were advantages to the new working arrangements and that the real reason for the changes was to save money in overtime payments. Mr Richardson succeeded in his claim for unfair dismissal and the Employment Tribunal held that it did not appear that the imposition of the shift system was of such discernible advantage that the only reasonable thing to do was to terminate the employee’s contract unless he would agree to the new arrangement. On appeal the EAT overturned this decision and held that:- A Tribunal should not ’second guess’ an employer’s business decision; A Tribunal should evaluate whether dismissal was due to the employer’s reasonable belief that the contract changes had advantages; and The employer did not need to prove that those advantages objectively exist. This is good news for employers who can rely on the principle that the tribunal must respect their commercial decisions in assessing whether a fair reason for dismissal has been shown. However this must be tempered by another EAT decision in Forshaw and others v Archcraft Limited [2005], where the EAT relied on its own assessment that the clause in question was unreasonable and found that the dismissal was unfair. In Forshaw the EAT said that while the tribunal generally will not re-open the commercial decisions of an employer’s management, however, a reason which is genuinely held but is trivial or unworthy or whimsical will mean that the dismissal is unfair. Comment: Provided that care is taken, changes to employment terms which are supported by sound commercial reasons will be acceptable under the law. If you require further information contact us.

Article Category : Resume Presentation The AIDA formula is as old as dirt. It was taught when I was in school over a decade ago. And it’s still being taught for good reason - it works! When you apply it to your cover letter, it has the power to transform a regular cover letter into an attention-grabbing “Killer Cover Letter” that’ll make your phone ring off the hook.AIDA is an acronym. It stands for Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action. It describes the process marketers want to take their prospect through in order to make a sale. In this case, the prospect is the hiring manager and you’re selling yourself in the sense that you want the hiring manager to contact you for an interview. So I’m going to show you how to grab the hiring manager’s attention, create interest, arouse desire, and ultimately get him or her to take action (pick up the phone and call you for an interview). By the way, I’ve tested this killer “System” so I know it works. Ready to get started? Then let’s go. Attention The first thing you need to do is grab the reader’s attention. You must get the reader’s attention before he or she can become interested and desirous of your offer to come in for an interview. We’re all busy and we all have several things going on in our lives. So how do you cut through the clutter and grab the reader’s attention? There are several ways actually. One way is to create an attention-grabbing opening sentence or headline as copywriters call it. Think of it like the headlines in newspapers and magazines. You choose which articles to read by quickly glancing at the headlines, don’t you? So why not put an attention-grabbing headline on your cover letter? Most cover letters don’t have an attention-grabbing opening sentence so the mere fact that your cover letter even has a headline separates you from the pack and draws attention to your message, wouldn’t you agree? Let’s say you’re walking along a crowded street and you spot a friend of yours on the other side of the street. Let say his name is Joe. How do you get Joe’s attention? You could start jumping up and down and yelling, “Hey! Over Here!” That might work. A better way would be to yell “Hey Joe! Over Here!” That’d be more likely to catch Joe’s attention, wouldn’t it? Because he hears his name. Personalization increases response dramatically. Now let’s take that thought and apply it to your headline. Adding personalization to your headline is a great idea. Use the recipient’s name right there in the headline. It makes the message more personal and increases the chance the message is read. Let’s take that one step further. Say you’re looking for a job as a nurse and you know the hiring manger’s name is Susan. Susan is understaffed and looking for nurses. So give Susan an attention-grabbing headline to open your cover letter. How about this, “Susan, Finally! A Nurse Who Can Do More Than Take A Temperature! But don’t stop there. Make it big and bold. Remember, it’s a headline. Make sure Susan notices the headline. Grab Susan’s attention. How could Susan possibly not notice that headline strategically placed at the top of your cover letter? And you can take that simple concept and apply it to a cover letter to any hiring manager for any job. So work on an attention-grabbing opening sentence and in Part II we’ll talk about interest, desire, and action. Robert is an author, speaker, and real estate entrepreneur(both on & offline).

Article Category : Career Management Working in ChinaWorking in China is very common now. Either you are sent to China by your company or you apply for a job to be stationed in China. Applying for a job in China is very common today as China gradually becomes a economic powerhouse. In fact, many Hong Kongers and Taiwanese feel that it is important to have good job experience in China. It is also very common to be posted for short working trips to China as a technical expert or co-ordinator as China is a big consumer of modern technology. Many companies sent their technical staff on short assignments to familiarize their Chinese counterpart on new technology. Job Hunt Many people are fascinated with China and desire to work in China. You can apply from your home country, or like many, purchase a ticket, land in China and start looking! The best source of jobs is on the internet. There are many job sites that specialises in China jobs. Alternately, pick up an English expatriate magazine that you can find in most 4 or 5 star hotels and there are likely to be job opportunities in there. Many of these magazines also run expatriate internet forums where you can place your resume. At this moment, the biggest job opportunities for foreigners are as English teachers in schools as China raced to get itself ready for the Olympics in Year 2008. Similarly, jobs in Food and Beverage and the Hospitality trade is also in high demand especially for English speaking staff. Entry Visa For business or short working trips, it is advisable to apply for the Business Visa. A business visa allows multiple trips of up to 30 days per trip for a period of three or six months depending on the visa applied. An invitation letter from the Chinese office is needed for the application. For long working trips, a Z Visa is required. This allow you to stay in China for up to one year. You will need a work permit and a letter from your Chinese Office before a Z Visa can be issued. Accomodation For those lucky to be on job assignments, the company will likely put you up in a hotel or a service apartment. China has a wide range of hotels and are likely to be clean and comfortable even if in the lower classes. When travelling to smaller towns, you may be unable to find a hotel higher than 3-stars! For those on their own, renting a local apartment will be the cheapest way to go in the long run. For those really on a tight budget, look for a apartment in a local area and not in one of those expatriate enclave. Rent leases in China normally runs for a minimum of 6 months but it is not uncommon to find 3 months leases nowadays. When renting apartments, remember that it is a requirement to inform the nearest police station of your new place of residence. Work style This can be a interesting area. Depending on the industry, the history, the culture and management, working with the Chinese can be a pleasure or a pain. If you are working in a MNC, where the Chinese has been exposed to western management concept, you may indeed find the working style very familiar with that at home. For others, work can be a nightmare in a entirely Chinese environment. Many state enterprises or Chinese company may run with a working culture reminiscent of the iron bowl concept of the early 60s and 70s. Business culture Again, business culture in dependent on the industry, company or even the geographical location of the company. For example, in the North, business is seldom discussed unless there has been a fair amount of socializing at the restaurant while in the South, business may come before social interaction. Overall, the business culture of China is more of human interaction than anything else. There must be a fair amount of socialisation and familiarisation before real discussions of any form can proceed. Do not jump or insist on a serious discussion on your first meeting. Please see Chinese Business Culture for further information. Language Requirements It is almost impossible to work or do business in China without some understanding of the Chinese language. It is useful to attend Chinese classes before or after seeking work in China. Please see Chinese Phrases page for further basic understanding of Chinese. Ken Cheong worked, lived and travelled in China for the last 7 years. Please feel free to email him.

Article Category : Resume Presentation Many people can easily write a resume in just a couple of hours. They can do this by following a resume sample and just writing their information in place of the sample. This is the quick and easy way, but it’s not the most effective way.If you want to write a resume that gets noticed by employers, you need to do an assessment of your skills, interests and abilities before you write your resume. You also want to develop a resume objective that best describes the type of position you’re applying for. It could take several weeks for you to complete your resume.

Article Category : Others Making Your Future Work Better For YouIt’s the commonest concern people have about their careers. Where am I heading? Is this the right direction for me? How can I tell what will suit me best? Making good career decisions doesn’t have to be agony if you clear away a few misconceptions. Break Out of Your Limits: Ignore the naysayers. We aren’t limited from birth by some trick of inheritance. We make this mistake because we restrict our goals to a few, narrow areas: making that specific promotion, winning those specific sales, being CEO by the time we’re 40. The goals may not even be our own; sometimes we pick up unrealistic aims from those around us. Find New Options: Setting your eyes on a single goal and achieving it through every obstacle makes a great story, but it’s like betting your life savings on a horse. If it wins, you clean up; if it loses, you lose everything. The more possibilities you can see, the more likely it is at least one of them will work out. Everyone has some untapped potential. You just need to recognize the flavor. Find what fits who you are and do that before everything else. Form Your Own View: Your future potential isn’t defined by other people — even your boss. All someone can see of us is our past or present behavior, not whether this represents our true selves. We often fall short of what we could do — or would do, if we remembered to make better choices. So much of our behavior is automatic. Constant repetition of what worked before wears grooves into our minds. We run on railroads of habit, doing what we always do and missing chances to explore better options. Let Go Of Old Habits: These boundaries that hem us in are formed of nothing more substantial than habit — the automatic habit of repeating what worked in the past. They can be tough to let go, even if they no longer serve us well. Give them a decent burial. It’s time to move on. Discover Your Possibilities: We can make sense of this mass of possible futures by putting them in categories. Do you feel best when you have lots of people around you? Do you enjoy making new relationships and keeping old ones fresh? Are you a social animal? If so, your future probably lies in the category of directions we call Relationship-oriented. Do you prize fairness? Does injustice make you angry? Are you the kind of person who feels standards of behavior are important? Do you need to feel what you’re doing has meaning? Do you like to see things done correctly? If most of these statements are true of you, your direction probably lies in the Ethics-oriented category. Practical, active go-getters; people who prefer less talk and more action; those who are driven by the need to succeed and the sense of satisfaction that comes with reaching your goals; people of these types come under the category of Achievement-oriented. They flourish in fast-moving roles full of clear objectives and challenges to be overcome. Learning-oriented people are creative, innovative and prefer to solve problems with brain rather than brawn. They enjoy discovery and developing their abilities. they’re more excited by ideas than activities; some are dreamers who see far into the future and bring about radical change. Do What Comes Most Naturally: Whichever flavor your future potential comes in, it’s yours to relish and enjoy. Stop worrying about weaknesses. Forget so-called gaps in your abilities. Fasten on what comes to you most naturally, pursue it with all the energy you can muster, and wait for the fireworks to begin. Building on your natural strengths is the best possible way to create a life that gives you fun, excitement and the satisfaction of being fully yourself. We can’t always have exactly what we want, but the more you can find ways to use your strengths instead of fretting about what doesn’t work so well for you, the more you’ll find yourself enjoying what you do.

Article Category : Others Outsourcing has moved upward in the most-improved columns of efficiency and respectability through eLance.com. This website offers time-saving access to high-quality expertise that enables you to offload projects for quick completion, while maximizing your budget and letting you focus on those items not easily delegated. If the project you have in mind falls into one of the twelve categories currently supported by eLance, you are literally in business: 1) Software & Technology, 2) Writing & Translation, 3) Sales & Marketing, 4) Management & Finance, 5) Legal, 6) Website Development, 7) Graphic Design & Art, Let’s take a sidebar for a moment here to discuss the subject of budget. Although outsourcing does enhance your ability to save money, eLance is not a marketplace for slave labor. There are always exceptions, but for the most part, the Service Providers bidding on your job(s) are sincere professionals eager to return a quality product at a fair price. Prior to setting the budget for your project listing, take a little time to understand the market for the type of work you are posting. Google your main and sub-categories, and then check out websites and pricing to get a feel for going rates. You might also want to consult with applicable local businesses and with colleagues as well, to help determine a price that is affordable for you but not insulting to prospective bidders. Buyers who attempt to milk the system-or who are sub-contracting, for pennies, work they themselves have acquired through bidding-will quickly discover that only the very least qualified suppliers are submitting bid proposals for their jobs. Simply put, be reasonable and fair in your pricing expectations. Once you’ve established your budget, you will have a couple of options that can assist you in pre-screening in-coming bids. You’ll have a choice of whether or not you wish to allow Service Providers to communicate with you, via Private Message Boards, prior to their actually placing their bids. This communication is optional but advisable, because you will receive more comprehensive bids if the Service Providers are able to clarify their questions in advance of bid commitments. You will also be able to list up to three questions you’d like bidders to answer, which will further assist you with your pre-qualification. Perhaps the most important decision you’ll make as you’re creating your listing is whether you want your project to be at the Basic or the Select Level. Either one will give you access to top-notch Service Providers, but there is one key difference between the two: At the Select Level, Service Providers cannot see the other bid proposals being submitted. This results in more detailed but fewer responses, generally from the most seriously invested tier of registered providers. At the Basic Level, where Service Providers can read each other’s submissions, you will still receive bids from highly-qualified individuals, but you’ll have a larger number of responses, with less proposal detail. This Basic level also produces a lower bid range, since providers view all the other bid amounts and competitively bid against them. Participation in the Select Level costs more for both you and the Service Providers than Basic, so you’ll need to decide the best option for each of your project listings. eLance gives you additional information on the listing levels to help you make the most advantageous choice. Once you’ve paid a fully-refundable deposit of $25 to re-confirm your identity, your job will be posted and bids will begin pouring in. This brings you to the most difficult part of the entire process: hiring the best match for you and your job-at-hand. Some bids will be rejected right away due to inflated pricing or an obvious qualification mismatch, but you will generally end up with a collection of contenders. If your project has been listed at the Basic Level, you will have received bids from both Select and Basic Service Providers, and in the upper right hand corner of each proposal, you will see the eLance statistics for each bidder: average feedback rating, number of feedbacks, and total dollars earned through eLance projects. These statistics, in addition to the bidders’ Profiles, Feedback Comments and Portfolios, will help you complete the “pictures” created by each proposal submitted. On a number of proposals, you will also see the words “New Provider.” Please don’t discount these bids out-of-hand, even though there might not be much of an eLance track record yet. You will frequently find the most qualified, cost-effective option in someone who has just signed on to eLance and is eager to build a strong clientele base and a solid reputation. If your project was listed at the Select Level, you’ll see all of the statistics as before, but only Select Service Providers will have placed bids. There will be “New Providers” in this category as well, though, so take the time to review their credentials. Once you’ve read all the relative proposal and background material and then made your selection, you will go into the Buyer Activity section of “My eLance” and “offer” your chosen Service Provider the job. When the Service Provider “accepts,” you will pay him or her according to the terms stated in the proposal (usually a deposit of 25-50% of the total bid amount), a process most easily accomplished using eLance electronic funds transfer or Pay Pal. At that point, you and the Service Provider can begin communicating directly, based upon your mutual agreement, through the Private Message Board, email and/or telephone, to get the project started-and voila!, you can cross that task off your list. Assuming your outsourcing requirements fall into one of the twelve eLance categories, you will discover that managing those demands has just become immeasurably more?well, more manageable. There is a legion of talented freeLancers out there, ready and willing to do everything possible to help you get your you-fill-in-the-blank job accomplished through new, efficient partnerships. As you begin building associations with a group of Service Providers, you’ll soon find that you’ll want to avail yourself of the option enabling you to invite individuals to bid on projects, a time-saving feature that lets you quickly hire your favorite(s)-and together, you can make each other’s day-one right after the other-the eLance way!

Article Category : Interview Tips When answering the “How do you handle stressful situations?” question during an interview, the best strategy is to give some examples of stressful situations you’ve dealt successfully with in the past.Everyone faces some form of stress on the job now and then. They probably won’t believe you if you say, “I’ve never been in a stressful situation.” So take some time before the interview to think back over your career and come up with some stressful situations you can talk about. Make sure they are situations that had a happy ending, thanks to your positive action. (If this is for your first job, think of a stressful situation during school or other aspects of your life.) Tell how you used time management, problem-solving techniques or decision-making skills to reduce stress. Mention stress-reducing activities such as exercise, stretching and taking breaks. Don’t be afraid to admit that you would ask for assistance if you began to feel overwhelmed. If it’s true, say you actually work better under pressure. Some jobs are much more stressful than others. This question is often given as a hint of things to come. In other words, they won’t be asking about stress if it’s a totally restful and relaxing job! So give serious thought not only to the question itself, but why they are asking it. If you absolutely do not want a stressful job, have an answer ready that makes this clear. It may eliminate you from the running, but you probably wouldn’t want the position anyway if it’s going to stress you out. Sample Answer: “I’m not easily stressed. One of my previous bosses even referred to me as ‘unflappable.’ I know the importance of being flexible and am good at adapting to changing situations and shifting priorities. But if I do start to feel stressed, I’ll take a break to stretch or get a little exercise and clear my head. If the stress is affecting my work, and due to something beyond my control, I’ll discuss it with my boss.” Then mention a specific example: “I remember one situation when I was working at ABC Company where an important client demanded that we finish his project two weeks ahead! of sche dule. At first that seemed like an impossible task. But instead of letting the stress overwhelm me, I took action. I looked at our other projects and found a way to shift some schedules around. It wasn’t easy, but we did manage to meet the customer’s demand, and he was very happy with the result.” Bonnie Lowe is author of the popular Job Interview Success System and free information-packed ezine, “Career-Life Times.” Find those and other powerful career-building resources and tips at her website: http://www.Best-Interview-Strategies.com
Article Category : Interview Tips A study conducted by the Journal of Consumer Research in 1995 showed that sales people who used their prospects’ names generated a 239% increase in sales. In today’s fast-paced world, that personal touch is even more important.The simple act of using a name can have a dramatic impact on your own ultimate success in landing a new job! During your next interview, focus on remembering the names of the interviewers. Find a reason to say their name at least three times during your conversation. Repeat their name at the end of the interview to make a lasting impression. But don’t stop at that. Make it a point to remember and use the names of the other people you meet — the receptionist, the HR person, anyone you speak to during your visit. They’ll remember YOU and maybe nudge the boss in your direction when it’s time to make the hiring decision! Here’s a personal touch that you must plan ahead for. After the interview, go out to your car and take out the nice notepaper you’ve brought along for this purpose. Write your thank-you notes while the interview is fresh in your mind. In our modern high-tech world, a handwritten note is becoming a scarce — and appreciated — commodity. Place the note in an envelope and write the name of the interviewer on it (do separate notes and envelopes for each interviewer, if more than one). Go back inside and hand-deliver them to the receptionist… smile and use his/her name when asking that the notes be delivered. Do you think any other candidate will do this? Heck no! (Not unless he/she reads this article!) Have an instant advantage by using the personal touches of: (1) remembering and using names; and (2) handwriting and immediately delivering thoughtful thank-you notes!
