Archive for April 2007You Need Outstanding LettersApril 28, 2007 by call_kirk.
You need outstanding letters and resume cover letters in your job employment search campaign. You will need to prepare your resume in letter form , as you will encounter many situations that call for a letter rather than the a standard job search resume. In addition certain firms ( and advertisements) , will request that you write about yourself rather than send a printed or computer generated print out resume. Letters will be especially important if you are seeking a major six figure position or are seeking a variety of employment positions or a change in career. Different materials will be required for contacting executive search firms , corporations , or answering advertisements as well for mailing or emailing to people in different industries. As important as resumes and letters are , the fact that you have some outstanding materials will be no guarantee of success. The determining factor will how well you use these job search employment tools. Ace Employment Services Winnipeg’s Newest Temp Employment Search Agency

Fortune Bruggen may be a tiny bit biased: A former head of global marketing for KPMG, she quit that job to start and run Strelmark (www.strelmark.com), a Washington, D.C., firm that conducts corporate golf-etiquette workshops for companies like Microsoft (Bill Gates is an avid golfer), Deloitte & Touche, Wachovia, and Smith Barney Citigroup. Still, Bruggen speaks from personal experience: “I got the job as head of global marketing at KPMG in large part because top management knew me - and they knew me from the golf course,” she says. And consider this: In a 2004 survey of 1,000 women golfers, 73% said that the game had helped them develop important business relationships, and over half said that being able to talk knowledgeably about golf had contributed to their success, according to the poll by Golf for Women magazine, investment firm Oppenheimer, and insurer MassMutual. Another study, by nonprofit research group Catalyst, found that, among 705 women managers at Fortune 1,000 companies, 41% said that not participating in informal social networks held them back at work, and the informal networking activity they mentioned most was…well, you can guess. Since golf is such a big deal among your new colleagues, why not take a few lessons? Bruggen says that being a “major klutz” need not hold you back. “Women who can’t golf, don’t,” she observes. “But men who can’t, do. They’re hackers, and that’s okay. The most important thing is cementing good relationships on the course, not whether you’re Tiger Woods.” The best way to learn the game, she says, is to politely decline well-meaning pointers from your dad, brother, or buddy, and invest instead in lessons from a pro, “preferably over a long weekend at a resort.” Sounds good! (Reminds me of one of my favorite golf jokes: Why does a golf pro always tell you to keep your head down when you swing? So you won’t see him laughing.) Once you’ve mastered the basics of the sport, you’ll be ready for the finer points of golf-course etiquette. Bruggen teaches a seminar called “Business Golf 101″ that includes 20 tips for making the most of 18 holes. “People don’t do business with people they dislike or distrust, so your aim should be to build likability,” she says. A few ways to go about it: “If someone’s about to tee off, the chances of a brilliant shot are very low,” Bruggen says. So keep your eye on that person’s ball, so you know exactly where it lands. When you find the ball for them, “people are relieved, and they see you as someone who’s on top of things, who pays attention to detail.” If you happen to hit a longer, straighter ball than the person you’re playing with (especially if that person is your boss), say something nice about an earlier shot of his or hers, if you can. “Take the focus off your game and keep it on theirs,” she says. Never, ever give advice unless directly and specifically asked for it. Don’t force a discussion of business topics on the golf course. “Save it for the ‘19th hole,’ that is, the clubhouse bar,” says Bruggen. Why? “Someone who is playing well, who is ‘in the zone’, doesn’t want to be distracted by business talk,” she explains. “And someone who is playing badly needs to concentrate. He or she doesn’t want to be distracted either.” If you take a lousy shot, don’t whine about it. Just move on. Bruggen finds that women in general have less experience with the unwritten rules of golf, so she has a few extra suggestions, starting with a tip on what to wear: “Don’t wear girly pastel colors like pink or carry a golf bag with frills on it.” Good idea: Leave the girly pastel colors to the guys. http://www.aceemploymentservices.net Posted in Uncategorized | Print | No Comments » Examples of Career Job Hunting GoalsApril 23, 2007 by call_kirk.

It is always surprising the number of people who have diffulties in deciding what they really want and who subsequently postpone job seeking campaigns. In order to conduct a thorough job seeking attack effort the first step in the career process is to arrive at the decision of a specific job , title , and financial objectives. It is often the case that people must compel themselves to select some goals in order to get their employment job seeking campaign on the road. Remember that something of something is better than nothing at all. It is often the sad truth that many job employment seekers begin an employment search and only later define and refine what their actual real life objectives are. www.aceemploymentservices.net

At any moment in time , there are qualified individuals who are saying to themselves ” it is just impossible to locate a good paying decent job”. The basic attitude and lack of self confidence will guarantee that this will be the case. If you are seriously thinking about a better employment position , then you must place your campaign at the top of your priority list. In order to take maximum advantage if this system your job search should be approached with the same spirit that you would apply to anything else that you really wanted to do. If you are someone who has been job hunting for some time , you need to start by recognizing that your present approach and strategies to new employment opprortunities may be on the wrong track and be inadequate for your career improvement purposes.
