Jobs/VacanciesRe: Discover The Hidden Secret Of Resume Writing by cbi24(op): 11:53am On Jun 10, 2009
Today I will be teaching us the 5 things you should never include in your resume

So lets go

Composing a resume is a difficult task, as we all know. It takes time and patience to fit your whole professional history within one or two pages, and present yourself as the best candidate for the job. While we focus so much of our energy on what to include in our resumes, we forget to stop and think about the information that should never be included. The following five items are at the top of the Resume Don’ts list:

1. Do not get personal. Any information that discloses your demographics should not be listed in your resume. Your age, race, ethnicity, religious beliefs, marital status, physical appearance, or your personal philosophies are not critical to your job performance, and therefore should never be listed on your resume. Present yourself as a professional to your potential employers. Your resume is not a list of your hobbies or interests; it is a listing of your education, your qualifications and your employment history. Stick to the information relevant to the job and your career objective.

2. Do not list salary information or requirements on your resume. This is a strict rule, and you must follow it. Your employer is concerned with what your desired salary is, not what you earned in your first job out of college. If you are asked to provide salary requirements, do so in your cover letter not your resume. As a best practice, always list a minimum you are willing to accept for the job, and avoid using a salary range. Do your research and know what the acceptable salary is for the job of your interest. Whenever possible, leave all salary conversations to for the interview with your potential employer.

3. Do not use jargon or too many “big words.” Unless you are absolutely certain that the person reading your resume will understand the terminology you are using, avoid using jargon in your resume. Gear your resume toward recruiters rather than an immediate hiring manager, because the human resources associates are usually the first to scan your resume. You should showcase your knowledge of a particular field through your education and experience; thus, jargon doesn’t have any place on your resume. In addition, avoid using too many “big words.” Don’t hide behind your vocabulary; making your resume overbearing is sure to lose the interest of your employer. Use the action words that are relevant to your career level.

4. Do not list your personal web site. As a rule, do not include your personal web site if it contains your photo or other photos that may be viewed as inappropriate, if it contains jokes (even if they are clean jokes), or your blog. In other words, if the site you have is entirely for personal purposes, you are best leaving it off your resume. Only include a link to your web site if the pages are set up to showcase your professional portfolio, a copy of your resume, reference letters, presentations, photos taken for professional use, or your web development skills.

5. Do not have any typos. The most important factor in achieving a winning resume is proof reading. You want to put your best foot forward. If your resume contains grammar and spelling problems, your potential employer will get an impression that you are not detail-oriented. It is hard to proof a document you have been working on so closely – use spell check (but be ware, it will not catch everything), ask your friends for help, meet with a career counselor. Do your best to present the most polished resume to your potential employers.

Dear Forumite I have been away for the past one month but right now I am back

So let me continue our discussion

Let's face it -- we all have just one history. Sure, we may have different
goals in mind, but no one has Life A, Life B, and Life C running concurrently.
Most people have had different types of jobs and have worked in different
industries, but can distill their resume into just one "past".

In the same vein, we have just one future. And the next step in your career i
s finite -- you can only take one step at a time, right? If you tried to take three
different steps in three different directions at once, you'd end up with tangled
feet, an inevitable fall, and a definite loss in time.


Defining Your Future

So how do you know which step is the right, next step?
Simple -- look at your last career step, or maybe your last series of steps.
Uncertain job seekers should always look at their past experience
and education, since it's this experience that will lead them to the next position.



Let me give you an example - say you're a sales management pro, who started out in inside sales.
Over time, you've changed employers and worked in different types of sales (B2B, B2C, Retail,
Outside Sales, Territory Management, etc.) in different types of industries. Now you're ready
to take that next career step into executive management. You test the waters and find several
different positions that pique your interest: a national sales director for a technology company,
a national business development manager for a specific product line within a luxury consumer
product group, and a vice president of sales for a smaller company that is an OEM for a niche product.

Do you need three different resumes? No. Why not? Because you have just one background to
present to all three employers and the focus is the same for all three jobs -- national sales management.

A lot of job seekers in this position would want to create a few "resume versions"
by rearranging some content in the summary, changing a few keywords, and calling it a different file name.

But here's the thing - most of the time, these different "versions" show minimal and
barely detectable changes. They make no real impact on the reader and no difference
in terms of winning the interview. In fact, sometimes a different "version" might actually
be weaker than the parent resume that solidly presents the qualifications and experience in a focused manner.


Till I come your away again

Remain Blessed

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Discover The Hidden Secret Of Resume Writing by cbi24(op): 9:38am On Apr 22, 2009
Thanks for your comment i will continue,

There are several different philosophical approaches to a resume. All are designed to sell the resume writer in some way or another, and by convention many job seekers tailor their resumes to a specific job or employer. This tailoring allows job candidates to bring out their strongest skills for an individual position. Some job seekers also add deeper levels of personalization, designed to humanize them to potential employers. Some employers actively request more personal information, such as hobbies or favorite vacations spots, in an attempt to learn more about the psychology of the applicant.

In some cases, a resume is arranged strictly chronologically. In this instance, educational accomplishments will usually lead, followed by employment history. A chronological resume often includes all work experience, since gaps will be easier to spot. In other cases, a resume is organized by relevance, with blocks of similar information clumped together. A resume put together in this fashion usually features only relevant work experience for a position, so that potential employers do not have to slog through the applicant's entire life history.

In nations which distinguish between a resume and a CV, a CV is much more detailed. The CV will include all life accomplishments ranging from awards earned in high school to journal publications, in chronological order. In the academic community, CVs are very common. They allow applicants to provide more information about themselves, and they may be several pages long.

WebmastersHow To Increase Your Salary As A Web Developer? by cbi24(op): 9:49am On Apr 21, 2009
As a web developer like me, you would be in a working field that is competitive and tough. The challenges and competitions you would have to face would increase as the industry grows, but this is no threat as you would be able to make your way through the career path. This is so because there are many jobs available as many companies have online businesses and would require skilled employees to manage them.

But, the real question is; how would you increase your salary as a website developer?

Now here is where you pick up tips, points and useful advice to mend the hole in your pocket and help you out. First of all, you need education. Well, obviously! If you don't already have a degree, then go and get one. You can do this either by enrolling into a university or by doing an online program. Besides that, make sure your degree is in a field that you want and have interest in.

After all, how can you do well in something without passion for it?

In addition to that, you would need hands on experience. An employer is most likely to give an experienced worker a better figure in salary if they have got experience in the concerning industry and can work independently. Also, experience related to the software and current technologies would be a plus point too. This can be acquired by participating in short term project and through internships.

The company that you work for matters too. Take in the size, note that generally, bigger companies are well off and would be able to pay you more while small companies wouldn't have the financial security to pay you as much. Besides size, location matters too. Companies and businesses in cities and towns are more likely to offer a better pay in comparison to the ones on the outskirts and in rural areas.

So, when picking a company, note all these small things as they play a big role in the figures of your pay In conclusion, work hard and learn to start small. You can do well if you put your heart to it and strive for the best!

Webmasters5 Big Mistakes Nigerian Netprenuers Make When Choosing A Domain Name by cbi24(op): 9:29am On Apr 21, 2009
Registering a domain name for your website is an important decision not to be taken lightly. Too many people skip the importance of this step and quickly decide on a domain without considering all the factors. There are a number of points you should consider when registering a domain. Are you planning on optimizing your website for high SEO rankings or do you purely plan on using PPC advertising to drive traffic to your site? And this is just the tip of the iceberg, Finding a catchy name that is a fit for your website or blog isn't as easy as it used to be. For you to register domain name Visit : www. and you can pay in Naira.

Here are 5 big mistakes Nigerian Netprenuers make when choosing a domain name:

1. Using hyphens in between words. There are some occasions where it can be beneficial to use a hyphen to separate the words in your domain. When writing an ad for example. But majority of the time it's best to steer clear of hyphens altogether. If someone was trying to remember your domain to tell others about, it becomes far more difficult to remember when it includes a hyphen. If you're looking for a way to highlight each word in your domain name, try capitalizing the first letter of each word instead.

2. Lack of relevance to your business or interest. When selecting a name to fit with your website, you want to ensure it's relevant to the topic or theme of your site. There is no point registering a URL completely unrelated to what you'll be promoting.For instant my own business is webhosting and domain name registeration ,i decided to use my key word "host" on my domain name and i derived this WWW. .The exception to this rule is of course, a really catchy domain name. Sites like Google, Yahoo and Twitter have proved to work exceptionally well in creating an online brand presence.

3. Using ".info" or ".biz" or another unknown ending. It's true, you might be able to get the exact combination of words you're after by registering one of these domains, but it's not going to be easy for people to remember when using an unconventional ending. Everyone online has been trained to click on ".coms." By registering a ".biz" or ".info" may attribute a lower perceived value to your website and discourage online browsers from clicking your link.

4. Using a ".co.uk" or ".com.ng" when your website is targeting the whole world. Many people make this mistake when getting started online. If your ambition is to promote your website or blog to the world there's no point registering a specific country URL. By doing so, you'll be losing a large audience who may have clicked on your website had you been a little more intuitive and registered a ".com." If you're having trouble finding a ".com" that fits with your business, try thinking of some cool sounding endings to add to your main keyword.

5. Failing to include your main keyword in your domain. By including your main keyword in the domain name, you'll be instantly alerting the search engines of your website topic. This is another SEO tactic you should use to achieve high SEO rankings on Google and other popular search engines. If everything about your site relates to this one particular keyword, the search engines will have no trouble deciding where to index your website.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Discover The Hidden Secret Of Resume Writing by cbi24(op): 6:36pm On Apr 18, 2009
ok let me start like this,

What is a Resume?

A resume is a brief document which highlights an individual's experience, qualifications, and skills, in the hopes of securing a job interview. In some regions of the world, the term “resume” is used interchangeably with Curriculum Vitae (CV), while in other places, the two terms refer to very different documents. A resume is a standard inclusion with any job or internship application, and it may be requested for applicants into graduate and professional schools as well. As a general rule, a resume is only one page long, although special circumstances may call for an additional page.

A good resume contains basic information about the applicant, organized in a way which is easy for the reader to comprehend. Clear contact information is usually at the top, followed by work experience, educational achievements, a list of skills, relevant certifications or awards, and contact information for references, though not necessarily in this order. The organization of a resume is a fine art, and it requires some work to create a strong resume. In some cases, people ask for professional help when assembling a resume.


Please stay tuned as i expose different philosophical approaches to a resume on the next post,

Continuation,


Differences Between the Major Search Engines

Although the basic principle of operation of all search engines is the same, the minor differences between them lead to major changes in results relevancy. For different search engines different factors are important. There were times, when SEO experts joked that the algorithms of Yahoo! are intentionally made just the opposite of those of Google. While this might have a grain of truth, it is a matter a fact that the major search engines like different stuff and if you plan to conquer more than one of them, you need to optimize carefully.

There are many examples of the differences between search engines. For instance, for Yahoo! and MSN, on-page keyword factors are of primary importance, while for Google links are very, very important. Also, for Google sites are like wine – the older, the better, while Yahoo! generally has no expressed preference towards sites and domains with tradition (i.e. older ones). Thus you might need more time till your site gets mature to be admitted to the top in Google, than in Yahoo!.
