Jobs/Vacancies / CV Mistakes You Might Have Missed But Could Cost You The Job by Handsome1: 5:04pm On Apr 02, 2016 |
Misspelt words and poor grammar are obvious errors – but less noticeable ones can lead to the door closing before you've even put your foot ,We ve all heard about the obvious mistakes which you’re told not to make on your CV, such as spelling or grammar, but there are some other things which can lead to the door closing before you've even put your foot in. Here’s a list of what to avoid: Listing objectives and what you’re looking for Here’s the type of thing many people write in their CV: “As an experienced X I’m looking for a job which gives me a challenge and will allow me to further my career”. Stating this is all well and good. However, by applying for the job you’re explicitly stating your interest in the role. There is no need to write such a statement, because it can actually have the opposite effect. What if the manager thinks that the role isn’t particularly challenging? Or the job doesn't allow for career progression? You’re ruling yourself out of the job by default with such statements. Instead, write about what makes you fantastic because that’s what the hiring manager is going to want to read. Paragraphs (other than in the opening profile) There should be no paragraphs in your CV. Managers scan CVs before actually deciding to read them. Time is of the essence for any hiring manager – they don’t want to trawl through a CV where the career history looks like the world’s most underwhelming autobiography. They want the information quick and fast. So don’t write an eight line paragraph about your job – instead break up it up into bullet points, with each one being no more than two lines long. Separate responsibilities and achievement headings in career history Remember managers hate reading CVs just as much as you hate writing them. So now imagine a manager scanning through your résumé – if they see the achievements section their eyes are automatically going to be drawn to it. Now you might think that’s a good thing, isn’t it? I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it isn’t. That’s because they’re just going to be focusing on your achievements without grasping the correct context in which they were made. For example, say your achievement was to turnaround a small business within a market which was on the decline and managed to generate 10 million naira annual net profit. If the manager doesn’t understand the context, to them it might not seem like an impressive achievement. It’s important for the employer to know the full picture in order to appreciate the value of your achievement. Therefore don’t separate these sections within your career history, instead merge them. A sub-heading called “responsibilities and achievements” will do. This allows the reader to get a better understanding of the correct context of what you achieved and how amazing it was. Including full references No one is going to contact your referees prior to you being offered the job. Unless it’s someone from a recruitment agency fishing for leads from your former boss. So just put “references available on request”. Stating salary or reason for leaving If you’re stating your salary you’re putting yourself in a more difficult negotiation position, because they know that you’d happily move for less. While previously they were willing to offer up to #500,000, now they’re thinking: “We can just offer #100,000 to #200,000” and you’ll accept. With reason for leaving it’s similar. You’re bringing up an issue that doesn’t need bringing up. It’s a bit like pointing out that you dropped mayonnaise on your white shirt in the office, even though no one noticed. If they want to know the reason, let them bring it up – your job is to ensure your CV focuses on the positives and not things which could possibly have a negative impact.

Jobs/Vacancies / Workplace Dating:will It Lead To Marriage Or Unemployment? by Handsome1: 4:24pm On Jan 26, 2016 |
Despite all the cautionary tales regarding the dangers of office romance, countless employees wind up in relationships with co-workers every year. And as you might expect when two people try to maintain both a business and emotional relationship – while spending virtually every waking hour together and keeping the whole thing a secret – workplace dating often ends in tears. Poll just about any office, and you’re likely to hear at least one story (if not more) of workplace dating that went awry. What’s worse, the fallout from these failed office romances can be far more brutal than a run-of-the-mill relationship. At least in normal life, if you look at the person you thought you’d marry and suddenly realize that you actually can’t stand the sight of them, you can just break up. But when this person is a work colleague, you may still have to maintain a professional relationship no matter how badly things end. Depending on the circumstances, failing to do so could cost you a raise, a promotion – or even your job. Of course, warnings about the dangers of workplace dating and office hookups are nothing new. The phrase “don’t dip your pen in the company ink” is a well-worn cliché, and some companies are so concerned about the negative effects of office romances that they expressly prohibit workplace dating. Yet, despite this, co-workers continue to wind up in bed together, restrictions and warnings be damned. So if workplace dating is such a bad idea, why do employees keep doing it? Is it because the stress of working together creates a unique bond between people? Or that as employees work longer hours, the office has become the only available place to meet people? Maybe the truth is that in spite of conventional wisdom, not all office romances are destined for failure. People who are drawn to the same employer often have common interests and a similar outlook on life. In fact, some of today’s best-known power couples began their relationships while working together. Then again, some notable romance disasters also began with workplace dating, so it’s important know what makes office romances succeed – and what makes them fail. If you have you got your eye on a co-worker but don’t know whether you should make a move, proceed carefully. Handle your office romance the right way and you might live happily ever after; screw it up and you could wind up looking for a new job. If you’re not sure whether to act on your office crush, try taking a queue from these famous (and infamous) couples for some of the main do’s and don’ts of dating someone in the workplace: Barack and Michelle Obama Barack and Michelle Obama met when they both worked at a Chicago law firm, and Michelle was assigned to mentor Barack while he was a summer associate. They married in 1992 and have continued to work together throughout the rise of his political career. Workplace Dating Advice: Communicate clearly about how you should act at work. Do you want to be open about your relationship, or keep a professional distance? If one partner feels like sharing with others while the other wants to pretend nothing is happening, this can quickly lead to trouble. Bill and Melinda Gates Bill and Melinda Gates met at a press event in 1987, and married in 1994. For many years Bill continued to run Microsoft while Melinda headed the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, dedicated to global philanthropy. Now, after retiring from Microsoft, Bill and Melinda run the foundation jointly. Workplace Dating Advice: Give each other space when you’re in the office. Don’t crowd each other or constantly check up on each other. If you were both independently successful before you began dating, there’s no reason you can’t continue the same dynamic after getting together. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez Lopez and Affleck’s romance caused such a media frenzy that the couple was referred to as “Bennifer,” and virtually every aspect of their relationship became the subject of intense scrutiny. Having met on the set of the movie Gigli, the film’s failure served as the culmination of the couple’s overexposure, and the two split in 2004. Workplace Dating Advice: Hollywood stars may be the only ones who need fear media overexposure, but you should watch out for “overexposure” of your workplace romance, too. If you date a coworker publicly, try not to get so involved in each other while at work that it begins to breed resentment among your colleagues. When it comes to workplace dating, a little attention from your coworkers goes a long way. Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn Another Hollywood pairing, Vaughn and Anniston began their relationship during the filming of The Break Up. While the romance sparked plenty of tabloid coverage, it never caused quite the media frenzy of Affleck and Lopez, and the relationship appeared to peter out by 2006. Workplace Dating Advice: Your relationship should be a collaborative effort. If one of you is putting more time into the romance than the other, it could be a warning sign that you’re headed for trouble.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: The One Golden Rule Every CV Must Follow by Handsome1: 4:38pm On Jan 04, 2016 |
Do you think it is appropriate to tell your potential boss about your private life before you even get to meet her? And let’s assume it is; is a document as important as a CV the perfect means to convey that bit of information? You see, these and many questions usually beg for an answer when drafting the bio-data section of your CV. However, deciding to include your marital status in your CV is a matter of different strokes for different folks. Remember that in my last post I made it clear that whatever would not help you land a job should never be included in your CV? Well, this pretty much looks like one of such things. For most employers, this information is very unnecessary. It says nothing about your skills and ability to deliver on the job. Though, this information may be required when preparing your work benefits and other packages, you should at the least, get the job first, don’t you think? Some may argue against this though. This school of thought believe your marital status should appear in your CV especially as this puts you in a pole position to land certain roles that require the stability and steadiness of a family man/woman. They say married people tend to take their jobs more seriously and stay longer on it due to the different responsibilities and obligation they to fulfill, in which a steady income plays a huge role. To this I have one question; would your chances of landing such jobs be limited simply because you did not add information about your marital status in your CV? It is an obvious NO. Such information can be provided during the interview or even later when you finally land the job. So to answer the overarching question, I’d say you should not include information about your marital status in your CV. It’s unnecessary. Period! |

Jobs/Vacancies / The One Golden Rule Every CV Must Follow by Handsome1: 12:48pm On Jan 04, 2016 |
There have been tons and tons of How-tos on crafting a winning CV that will be just too perfect to be ignored by potential employers. Now, that’s all good stuff. But as with every form of knowledge, there is a basic, rudimentary and golden rule upon which the entire body lies. That one thing you can say is unarguable – the truth (if there’s any such thing). As far as writing a great CV is concerned, there’s just ONE GOLDEN RULE..not two or three, just ONE: “If it will not help you get that job, don’t put it in your CV.” Now this may go off as a no-brainer, but you really have to see a typical CV of a job applicant in Nigeria to appreciate the wisdom laden in this statement. Details like marital status, state of origin, religion, ethnic group, LGA of origin etc will not help you get a job. If anything, they will greatly hurt your chances of even landing an interview. How so? There are number of reasons, but I’ll stick to one which I think you may easily relate to. While merit is a major factor in recruitment, we cannot overlook individual sentiments and differences in the different choices of employers and recruiters. Different people have different predilection, and sensitive details such as where you come from, what religion you profess, your marital status, tribe, age and co should be completely removed from your CV. I hope you catch the drift. In addition, these details have nothing to do with your skills, experiences and ability to deliver on the job, so why add them to your CV. There are other factors that you must consider in crafting a great CV, but this one rule is essential. Cc: Lalasticlala 18 Likes 4 Shares |

Romance / 91 Year Old Woman Suffocated During Sex With Married 49 Year Old Neighbour by Handsome1: 2:47pm On Dec 07, 2015 |
A 91-year-old woman is believed to have suffocated during a sex game with her 49-year-old neighbour. The woman was found on her bed naked from her waist down next to a intimacy gadget in Aveiro, 50 miles south of Porto, Portugal. A married dad-of-two living next door has been arrested after DNA analysis of semen recovered from the scene. He was released on bail after going before a judge who was told autopsy results showed she died from asphyxia thought to have taken place during a sex game that spiraled out of control. The death is believed to be the result of a tragic accident. A neighbour described the woman, who lived alone, as being “very active” despite her age and said the neighbour often went round her house to do odd jobs. Police say there was no sign of a forced entry and nothing had been taken from the house. |
