Success And Money

Right from the very start, choosing the right career could have a big impact on your life as a whole and your finances specifically. Just remember that there are a lot of people who are regretting the career choice they made years ago and just continue on the same path because they feel they already have no choice. Bad decisions lead to an unhappy career life. As much as possible, we have to avoid that.

Of course, since nobody is perfect there is no guarantee that you will end up with the career that is giving you much satisfaction and growth. In case, you are on a dead end road, the best thing to do is to find another one. The power of change is right on your hands.

So let’s listen to this very good short video made by Jack Canfield on the subject of choosing a career right.

Choose your career well!

My Curriculum Vitae

As you are preparing your resume, there are possibilities that you can’t properly figure out how or where to start from.  As it can either make or break your employment chances, preparing your curriculum vitae (CV) should not be taken for granted.  A resume is an outline of your qualifications, skills, and experience as well as accomplishments that hopefully could lead to an interview. Preparing a smart resume is a vital part of your job search! Here are some simple tips that can improve your resume making skills.

1. Make your name at the top prominent. It is better to have a standard font style, such as Arial or Times New Roman font and the font size should be proper as well. In case your CV exceeds beyond two pages, ensure that you write “continued” at page 1 as well as “page 2″ at page 2. Leave out other unrelated and unnecessary facts unless specifically required by your prospective employer.

2. Ensure that your name, address, contact numbers, e-mail address are aptly visible at the top of the document. Unless required, there is no need to mention the reasons of leaving your previous job or jobs.

3. CVs can fall under three categories:  Chronological, Functional as well as Combination. The Chronological CV is the most frequently used format as it is frank as well as everything written in a perfect order. Functional CVs on the other hand are placing more emphasis on competence and accomplishments together with occupational experience. Combination CVs combine the format of chronological as well as functional CVs into one!

4. Preparation is the key for building a CV. The better you know about the position applied for and the company (its products/goals), the better chances you have to write an effective CV. To make your CV stand out, ensure that you write an inspiring and attention-getting CV objective. The CV objective must include the post you are applying for, your professional experience as well as at least three qualities which you have. And please be careful with the grammar.

5. Make a list of the activities that you were engaged in such as internships, seminars, paid work – particularly those in which you had a leadership role or those that indicate competence relevant to the occupation you are applying for. Experience counts a lot and hence you must never miss it out on your CV.

6. See to it that your resume has a good flow and must includes only legal and honest information. Once uncovered a single dishonesty can cast a big gloomy cloud on your chances of getting an interview.

With the very competitive job market, getting all the help to make you stand out among the many choices could really help a lot! And having an excellently written resume could boost your chances of getting the interview and eventually be hired!
