Audit Jobs - Where Are They?
What do you want to be when you grow up? The answer to that question has changed drastically over the past two years. The newest research on university campuses around the nation says that this year, new graduates are more likely to be seeking audit jobs than just about any others. That shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that’s been following the news in economics and accountancy. Firms that do global business are increasingly concerned with compliance to international standards of accountancy. The need

How to Quit a Job?
Leaving a job is often a difficult step. Sure, there is the exciting opportunity to do something different, but if have been with an employer for over a year this can become an emotional step. People leave jobs for various reasons. The old job might just plain and simple suck. The pay is lousy and the boss is behaving like a dictator of a 3rd world country. Or the job might be target of outsourcing and the employee is pro-active by looking for his/her own way out. Or the job is a dead end. No opportuni

Networking is still known as a great job-search strategy, yet it eludes some individuals simply because they don’t know how to go about it. Individuals also tend to shy away from networking because it’s time consuming. Unlike online r?sum? submission or folding a r?sum?, stuffing it in an envelope, and adhering a stamp, networking requires far more time and dedication. The results, however, can be quite different than those experienced from traditional r?sum? submission.

Your network incorporates everyone around you, such as your preacher, doctor, neighbors, friends, colleagues, and/or fellow committee members. The object is to talk, ask, brainstorm, and seek the assistance of others that know of an opportunity or contact that you do not. Have you heard of Stanley Milgrim’s theory of “Six Degrees of Separation” (more popularly known by the movie, starring Kevin Bacon)? His theory states that there are only 6 people separating you and someone you’d like to meet or get in touch with, such as a hiring or human resources manager.

Like anything critical in your life, you must be prepared to network. Hold a small portfolio to house several prints of your r?sum? along with other pertinent material. Collect business cards from everyone you meet and make notation of the place and date on the card. This information is needed should you speak with this person again. You’ll make an impression by referencing your previous conversation, along with the date and occasion (e.g. name of seminar or conference).

International Business Etiquette
"To have respect for ourselves guides our morals; and to have a deference for others governs our manners." Lawrence Sterne, Irish novelist & satirist (1713 - 1768)Etiquette, or good manners, is an important part of our day to day lives. Whether we realise it or not we are always subconsciously adhering to rules of etiquette. Much of the time these are unwritten; for example giving up your seat to a lady or elderly person, queuing for a bus in an orderly fashion according to who arrived first or

Employment And Education Verification On Rise With Falsified Information On Resumes
"In the fourth quarter of 2006 Mancini Group found a double digit increase in Employment and Education Verifications" stated Simpson, President of the Mancini Group. As more small and mid-size companies use background checks the increase in our business has been in this area due to more falsification on resumes. We are digging more and finding more information on prospective employees including previous salaries, dates of employment, job titles and job descriptions. In the education areas we are findin

The Essence of Calendar Printing
Calendars are used nowadays for marketing purposes. What most people think is that calendars are only used to organize meetings or tasks. But they don’t see the potential that the calendars have in improving the marketing stand of a business. Not all people know that calendars can be a perfect gift or promotional giveaways.Advantages of Business Calendars In essence, there are countless advantages that the calendars offer to business-minded individuals.

Don't Lose Heart - Real Estate Is As Hot As Ever
Though many people are saying that real estate has started with its downward slide it surely doesn’t mean that it has become a bad investment. It is still profitable to invest in properties but all you have to do is keep your greed and fear aside to get a good deal. These two evils cause people to overestimate the worth of their properties but they forgot that this also means that this will make them undervalue it on its way down in the market scenario.The housing revenues may be sliding down bu

The card will also be handy when you’re given a job lead. Generally the intro paragraph of a cover letter will reference something like, “When I spoke to Sarah McNeil on August 1, 2002, she mentioned that you are looking for a clerk typist and suggested that I contact you.” Obtaining a person’s card will keep you from misspelling the person’s name and remind you of the person that gave you the lead. Effective networking will cause your card portfolio to fill up quickly and make it difficult for you to keep names and companies straight in your mind. BTW, don’t forget to give your lead a small gift or handwritten thank-you card if you land the job. Small gestures, such as a job lead, can oftentimes be forgotten.

As I mentioned, networking takes time; but the results can be more rewarding than r?sum? blasting (sending your r?sum? to anyone, if not everyone). Steven R. Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, wrote, “We have the initiative and the responsibility to make things happen.” This statement applies to everything in our lives, especially those affecting our careers. Networking (although time consuming) can change the entire face of our beings and open the door to more opportunities than we ever dreamed possible.

Even when employed, your network should be tended. Keep in touch with select individuals through thank-you cards and e-mails. Offer your services and knowledge to them should the opportunity arise — anything that will make his or her life easier.

I also recommend that you present individuals in your network with key opportunities that may come across your desk in the future. The best way to get is to
