In 2014, 54 percent of Canadians were overweight or obese. Unhealthy weight is a contributing cause of heart disease, which is the number two cause of death in Canada.

Who could be more qualified to give a job advice if not the current CIOs? Technology’s top execs not only oversee talent acquisition; because they have experienced the hiring process from both sides of the desk, they’re bound to know the most effective ways to land a new job today. Here are a few tips from CIOs for people just entering the tech industry: Advice from Brian Miller, CIO and Interim Dean for Online Education at Davenport University: Job Advice From CIOs Brian Miller Internships Trump Coursework: “Listing college coursework on a resume provides marginal value to a prospective employer. Internships are more important and they pay the biggest dividends. If you didn’t have an opportunity to participate in internships during college, completing one or two before you enter the job market will not only enhance your skills but improve your marketability.” Showcase Your Customer Orientation: “Tech skills are important, but soft skills and a strong customer orientation are differentiators. Tooling your resume to demonstrate your desire and ability to serve others can set you apart from other new grads. Describing outside interests and hobbies is another great way to give managers a glimpse into your motivation, personality and interpersonal skills.” Be Ready to Talk Business, Not Tech: “Research the company before an interview to gain an understanding of its culture and drivers. Then be prepared to talk about the ways that software or technology can have a positive impact on business and customers.” Demonstrate Passion and Commitment: “We love it when new grads commit code to open source projects, which is accepted by the community. Listing side projects on your resume can give you a leg up because it demonstrates passion and a commitment to continuous learning.” Advice from Kevin More, CIO of the May Institute and Board Chair of the Boston Society for Information Management (SIM): Job Advice From CIOs Kevin More Develop a Professional Network: “Developing your professional network is the first step for new grads and the key to a successful search. In fact, 70 to 80 percent of the new hires at our organization come from referrals. Join technology user groups, business groups and community-based organizations to build your connections inside and outside of IT and continue to grow your network once you accept a position.” Find a Mentor: “If you really want to know what tech managers are looking for and how to stand out, developing a mentoring relationship with one or two managers is the best way to get the inside scoop. Many tech managers are willing to give back by providing advice and coaching to new grads. All you have to do is ask.” Making Branding a Priority: “Creating a strong personal brand and online presence is the best way to showcase your career interests and technical capabilities. Start blogging right after graduation and provide samples of your work to gain a following and capture the attention of employers.” Advice from Bruce Maas, Vice Provost for Information Technology and CIO at the University of Wisconsin-Madison: Job Advice From CIOs Bruce Maas Be Assertive and Authentic: “Don’t wait to be asked! Companies want you to be assertive about pursuing career opportunities and internships that give you a chance to learn and grow. However, remember to balance assertiveness with self-awareness by conducting a self-assessment so you present a realistic portrait of your skills to employers.” Leverage Internships: “Companies often use internships to evaluate potential new hires so they’re a great way to get your career started. Being on the inside of a company also provides students and new grads with a no-risk, no-pressure opportunity to demonstrate adaptability and organizational fit.” Rise Above Self-Limiting Beliefs: “Don’t underestimate your abilities or limit the opportunities you pursue, especially if you’re a female entering the tech workplace. Avoid self-criticism and be kind to yourself, because no one expects you to be perfect.” FROM www.worldjobtrends.com |

Facebook may be the key to finding your next job. Facebook has always been a great place to connect with family and friends about all things social. Now, it’s also an effective way to connect with your next potential employer. In February 2017, Facebook opened up its new job board feature, where employers can post jobs directly to their company page or a specific jobs page and job seekers can apply to them immediately through Facebook. If you’re wondering whether this is viable, consider this: Business Insider states there are 65 million businesses are currently using Facebook pages, and a recent study by Jobvite found Facebook to be the second most popular social network for recruiters. Currently, posting is free for employers and there’s no set limit of posts per page, making the site even more enticing for businesses with many jobs to fill. Here’s how to begin using Facebook as a key part of your job-search process. Review your Facebook page settings Facebook stresses that employers will only be able to see your public information. Yet, that still begs the question: What would you want a recruiter or hiring manager to see? Unless you alter them, your privacy settings aren’t affected when you search for a job. Be sure there’s nothing that would hurt a potential employer’s first impression of you. Doing this on the front end will ensure that your profile is always accurate and will prevent you having to change it each time you apply for a job. Also, make sure your Facebook resume puts you in the best possible light as a candidate who wants to work for a specific organization. For example, since Facebook limits the skills you can list, be sure to show your most relevant abilities and be as specific as possible. Use the projects tool to showcase key contributions and accomplishments from past jobs and to list out any quantifiable career achievements. Create a list of companies to explore Have you ever been caught in “the Facebook void?” You start out looking for one specific thing and then 30 minutes later, you realize you’ve been pulled way off topic. To avoid this when job searching,create a list of companies you want to work for based on your research and then visit each company site to see if they’re hiring. It makes the process more efficient. Some things to look for in your target companies include culture, work-life balance, number of employees, distance from your home, and whether you can relate to the organization’s values. Consider checking with former colleagues about their current companies, or using your LinkedIn network to see if you have connections at the companies you listed. Another idea is to use Google News Alerts. By setting this up, you can keep up to speed on what’s happening in a particular company and in the industry as a whole. This includes keeping tabs on who is hiring and who isn’t. Locate jobs and start applying Facebook job postings can be found in two places: on a specific company’s Facebook page under the Jobs tab and on a separate jobs page that you can use to search all job listings by location, industry, skill, and job type. If you’re on the mobile app, go to the Jobs tab under More. Then, start looking for open positions and keep these points in mind: When you find a job that interests you, click the “Apply Now” button which takes you to a page that’s pre-populated with your name, education, and any other information that’s public on your site. If needed, you can make changes before you submit your data, but doing it once on the front end will save time and avoid potential mistakes. You can’t upload a resume at this time, but there’s a 1,000-character text box to create a cover letter or add detailed information about why you’re the best person for the job. Hit “send” to get your information over to the company via a Facebook message. The company will then communicate with you through Messenger unless stated otherwise. Be sure to “like” and follow any companies that interest you. By doing this, any new job postings the company creates will show up immediately in your news feed. You can also hit the Subscribe button for the same result. Watch for more from Facebook Various experts believe that this initial version of Facebook job searches is just a hint of what’s to come and that a more robust version is in the works — especially as it positions itself to rival LinkedIn. Facebook announced plans to expand its job-search feature to an additional 40 countries. Stay tuned for more to come! Article Source www.worldjobtrends.com |

Do you fear the prospect of making a mistake at work? Perhaps you’re worried about getting something wrong or upsetting a colleague with honest feedback. While it’s natural to feel this way, a lack of self-confidence could actually hold you back in the workplace and prevent you from reaching your full potential. After all, having insecurities at work can make it hard to focus on your development and future success. On the other hand, being confident in yourself and your abilities helps you to feel good, increases your job satisfaction, and builds up your all-around happiness in your role. So, if you want to improve your self-confidence at work, check out our advice below. Be kind to yourself We’re often our own toughest critic. But if you’re constantly thinking negative thoughts about your abilities and success, it can be hard to improve. So don’t put yourself down! Cut out negative language about yourself, focus on all the great skills you have and milestones you’ve reached, and think about what you can do instead of saying “I can’t.” Most importantly, remember that it’s perfectly OK to make mistakes. In fact, mistakes help us to learn and improve. Next time you have a slip-up, instead of criticizing yourself, think of it as a learning experience you can use to avoid this happening again in the future. Fake it ‘till you make it Feeling truly confident can take time, so hold your head up high, smile, and fake it ‘till you make it. The right attitude will go a long way towards helping you think more positively. Be sure to act like you know your stuff. Even if you’re feeling slightly doubtful, remember that your knowledge has gotten you this far already — and will get you further in the future. If you continue to tell yourself that you’re confident, in time, it will help you genuinely feel more confident. What’s more, others will see this self-assurance in you and they’ll believe in your abilities too. Evaluate your performance Seeing visible improvements in your work will increase your confidence in your abilities, and a great way to recognize this is to evaluate your performance. If you know your strengths, you can utilize these in the future, and, likewise, you can work on your weaknesses to help you improve in your role. Every time you complete a task, ask yourself if there was a better way you could have done it. Think about how you could be more productive and get better results, and then write down the actions you’ll take next time. Boost your skill set Learning new skills can help you become better at your job — whether it’s soft skills, such as working on your communication with colleagues or hard skills related to your role, such as data handling. When you’re performing better, you’ll feel more confident about your abilities and find new ways to work. Through this, you should be less likely to make the same mistake twice and be able to advance your career. Challenge yourself When you push yourself out of your comfort zone, it helps you to learn what you’re capable of. Naturally, this isn’t always easy. It’s understandable that you’d want to stick with what you’re good at, but challenging yourself is important for learning new skills and improving your self-confidence. When you achieve this, you’ll feel much more self-assured and see that you’re able to do more than you thought was possible. In the future, you’ll feel more confident in taking on new tasks and trying out new roles. As a result, you’ll be able to propel yourself forward in your career. Stay informed When you know your stuff, you can speak more confidently about it, so make sure you’re on the ball with what’s happening in your industry. To do this, keep on top of the latest trends by researching news and updates, which could help you to identify new ways of working, as well. Don’t forget the information that’s on your doorstep either. Question senior colleagues about their expertise to help you expand your knowledge. What’s more, consider undertaking regular training and development courses to ensure that your information is up to date. If you’re clued up, your colleagues will turn to you for information, which can help you to feel knowledgeable and foster your self-confidence. Improving your self-confidence at work Confidence is important in the workplace not only for success, but also for feeling happy and satisfied. So make sure you embrace yours to ensure this isn’t holding you back. If you’re finding this difficult, remember you can always fake it until you make it to help you inject some positivity into your work life. Article source www.worldjobtrends.com |
Looking to shake up your routine? Check out the things successful people do in the morning. Close your eyes for a few seconds. No, don’t fall asleep. Instead, think back to this morning. How many times did you tap snooze? Were you running late? Did you feel stressed? If you’re like the average American, you probably answered yes to at least one of these questions. You also probably recognize that, though it’s easy to fall into this pattern, it’s not the most proactive way to start your day. Instead of falling into a bad morning routine, take some advice from the pros. Here are the 12 morning habits of successful people. 1. They ditch the alarm clock Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos swears by eight hours of sleep each night. He’s also a big proponent of waking up naturally, without an alarm. Arianna Huffington follows a similar routine. She told Oprah she too gets at least eight hours of sleep and wakes up on her own. 2. They exercise As the sun begins to rise, Dwayne Johnson “The Rock” kicks his day off with cardio — either a run or a session on the elliptical. It energizes him for the rest of his day. Shark Tank star Daymond John also starts his day with a workout. He says this wasn’t always his routine, but he finds it makes him more productive, which then shortens his work week. 3. They meditate Self-help guru Tony Robbins also exercises each morning, but after a protein-packed breakfast, he spends 10 minutes meditating, according to Business Insider. He calls the practice “priming,” which mixes yoga techniques with mindfulness. He says it gives him energy and sets his positive intentions for the day. Jeff Weiner, the CEO of LinkedIn, once tweeted that he too meditates each morning. In fact, he wakes up at 5:30 each morning, reads his emails, checks the news, works out, meditates, and eats breakfast — all before 9 a.m. 4. They eat breakfast Richard Branson starts his day with a game of tennis, a walk, run, or bike ride, and follows it with breakfast and time with his family. 5. They soak up the silence Shonda Rhimes, the producer of “Grey’s Anatomy” and creator of “Scandal,” told InStyle she wakes up an hour and a half before her kids, around 5:30 a.m. She writes in her journal or simply stares out her window. Then, the kids awake, and her day’s off to the races. CEO and co-founder of Ellevest, Sallie Krawcheck, starts her day with silence as well. However, she fills the silence with work. She wrote in a LinkedIn article that she’s her most productive self at 4 a.m. 6. They spend time with their pets Like others, Oprah starts her day with meditation and exercise. Yet, before that happens, she brushes her teeth and takes her five dogs outside. After walking around the yard with them, she settles in and makes a cup of her favorite espresso. Personal trainer Jillian Michaels says her alarm is her five year old. After the two cuddle, they feed their household of animals, reports Blinkist Magazine. This includes a rabbit, a pig, dogs, a bird, chickens, ducks, and fish. 7. They review their to-do lists Shark Tank stars Kevin O’Leary and Barbara Cochran start their days with to-do lists. Before O’Leary goes to bed, he writes down three tasks he wants to get done the next morning. Whatever it is, even if it’s something as simple as sending a text, he completes those three tasks the following morning. He says it puts him on track for a productive day. Cochran follows a to-do list, too — though it’s more structured. She told Inc that she files her tasks in order of importance, labeling them “A,” “B,” or “C.” She gives herself three to five “A” tasks a day. Because these are the most important, she makes sure to complete them in the morning, when she’s most productive. 8. They check their emails Shark Tank star Mark Cuban spends an hour each morning checking his emails, he told Thrive Global. He says emailing allows him to set his own schedule because it alleviates the need for scheduled meetings and phone calls. Apple CEO Tim Cook probably wakes up before anyone else — around 3:45 a.m. He receives 700 to 800 emails a day, and he reads nearly all of them. He uses his time in the morning to wade through them. Rather than checking emails, Mark Zuckerberg naturally checks Facebook. 9. They don’t hit snooze Comedian Jerry Seinfeld doesn’t hit snooze. Instead, he forces himself out of bed, opens the shades, turns on the radio, and splashes cold water on his face. Although he’s known for getting coffee with other comedians these days, he spent much of his career functioning just fine without caffeine, he says in an interview. 10. They catch up on the news Warren Buffett is big on reading the news. He told CNBC he starts each day with the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Forbes, while Bill Gates told Fox Business his go-to sources are The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal as well. Martha Stewart seconds The New York Times. 11. They make their bed Tim Ferriss, author of “The 4-Hour Work Week” and “Tools of Titans,” makes his bed. In “Tools of Titans,” he explains that the routine task keeps his room and his head clear of distractions. It’s also something he can control, so no matter how crazy his day might become, he knows his bed is made. 12. They think about improvement Venus Williams revealed to Fast Company that she wakes up and immediately thinks about “her game.” “It’s an addiction, but I always think about how to get better,” she says. “Everything is geared toward that.” So rather than hitting snooze for 30 minutes tomorrow morning, try to set a better, more productive tone to your day. Get active, eat breakfast, and do what your parents always begged you to do: make your bed. Article Source www.worldjobtrends.com |
A CV (short for the Latin phrase curriculum vitae, which means “course of life”) is a detailed document highlighting your professional and academic history. CVs typically include information like work experience, achievements and awards, scholarships or grants you’ve earned, coursework, research projects and publications of your work. You may be asked to submit a CV when applying for jobs in academia or a job outside the US. If you need help determining how to write a CV, it can be helpful to consult a template. Here is additional background on the document along with an easy-to-follow CV example template to ensure you craft a powerful curriculum vitae that stands out to employers. CV vs. Resume A CV and resume are similar in that they’re both documents that summarize your professional history, education, skills and achievements. They’re also both documents you might provide an employer for consideration for an open position. It is important to note that in the United States and most of Europe, resumes and CVs are not interchangeable. A resume is a shorter-form document that provides a concise overview of your previous roles, skills and details about your education. (The French word résumé translates to “abstract” or “summary.”) A CV, on the other hand, is typically a longer, more detailed document focused largely on academic coursework and research. There are a few exceptions, however. In India, South Africa and Australia, the terms CV and resume are interchangeable. REALATED / Difference Between A CV And A Resume How to write a CV Most CVs include the following information: Contact information Academic history Professional experience Qualifications and skills Awards and honors Publications Professional associations Grants and fellowships Licenses and certificates Volunteer work Personal information (Optional) Hobbies and interests (Optional) Some employers, especially postsecondary institutions, may offer their own CV template and CV examples to help make sure you include all required information in the format they prefer. Before you submit your application, look for any special CV guidelines the employer has outlined. For example, some institutions may require you to list only relevant coursework, fieldwork, dissertations and professional references. RELATED / How To Ask For A Reference For A JobJob CV Example Template 1. Contact information Full name Address (including city, state and zip code) Phone number Email address For example: Joe Smith 1234 Main Street, Atlanta, GA 30308 770-555-1234 joe.t.smith@email.com 2. Academic history (in reverse-chronological order) Post-doctoral program Graduate school Undergraduate school High school For example: Ph.D. in Sociology, 2018 University of Texas College of Liberal Arts, Austin, TX 3. Professional experience Organization or institution Job title/position Dates employed Details about duties, experience and achievements For example: University of Southern California Professor, Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry | 2012–2018 Taught multiple undergraduate and graduate courses in orthodontics. Fostered student commitment to lifelong learning and excellence in dentistry. Acted as student advisor to first-year dentistry school students. 4. Qualifications and skills Hard skills Soft skills Accreditations and certifications For example: Team leadership Seminar instruction Fluent in English, Spanish and French Certification in Occupational Therapy. 5. Awards and honors Award name Year awarded Organization that gave award Award details (how often the award is given, how many people receive the award, etc.) For example: Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, 2018 Columbia University Awarded for excellence in fiction literature to one individual in the U.S. each year. 6. Publications and presentations Publication citation (including authors, date, summary, volume, page, DOI number) Presentation details (including title, date and place of presentation) For example: Yang, J., Sanchez, C., Patel, A., Johnson, L., (2017) “Study of cocoa product component theobromine and danger to canines.” Journal of Modern Veterinary Medicine. 272: 1234-56789. 7. Professional associations and affiliations Name of organization Geographic location or chapter Dates of active membership For example: American Cancer Society (2011–Present) Society for Cancer Research (2013–Present) Final thoughts If you’re practiced in writing resumes, you may be tempted to shorten your CV to keep on one page. However, because CVs require so much information, they’re typically multiple pages in length. In other words, don’t cut crucial details to save space. Before submitting your job application, be sure to thoroughly review your CV for any errors or inconsistencies. Consider asking a trusted colleague or professional mentor to review it as well—especially if they’re experienced in the industry you’re applying to. A second opinion can be useful in helping you craft a well-polished CV. Source www.worldjobtrends.com |

For those moments when it’s hard to muster job-search motivation, keep these tips in mind. If you’re one of the millions of Americans currently looking for a new job, your determination might waver at times. How do you stay motivated? Let’s take a look at these motivation tips for job seekers: 1. Get sunlight Seeing the sun or being in sunlight is proven to make you feel good. As little as 10 minutes of skin exposure to ultraviolet rays fosters your body’s metabolism of vitamin D. On the contrary, lack of sunlight is not good for your body or mind. Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a real thing; please consult a physician if you think you might have it. In fact, a common treatment for SAD is light therapy (phototherapy). When your mood is elevated, the moods of people around you are also elevated (a phenomenon known as emotional contagion), which in turn can help keep you motivated. Basically, in addition to all these other great benefits, sunlight makes you popular … and who doesn’t love popularity? 2. Exercise Relieve stress.Get the heart rate up. Get your blood circulating and pumping oxygen throughout your body. Walking, running, dancing, yoga (among other activities) or playing a sport releases endorphins and other “feel-good” chemicals that mobilize you for action and motivation. 3. Eat well, eat right Know your body. Consuming foods that energize and provide real nutritive value is a great way to help you stay motivated. Moderation rules. Avoid fast food, refined sugar, or overly processed items. Hint: If what you’re eating is going to make you curl up for naptime or put you in a food coma, you should leave it alone … unless you need the nap and it’s not interfering with your previously scheduled job-hunting activities. 4. Read motivational books (and/or listen to motivational speeches) Self-improvement is a huge industry. Pick out some titles from the local library or stream videos on YouTube. Sometimes inspirational words and stories can light the fire you need to keep a positive attitude in your employment search. I personally recommend Jeff Olsen’s The Slight Edge, which talks about doing little things consistently over time. 5. Sleep Sleep governs everything. Without enough of it, your body, brain, and mood suffer. You want to be at peak sharpness when applying and interviewing for positions. Quality shut-eye is one motivation tip for job seekers we can all agree upon. 6. Play Schedule playtime so you can release yourself from the tyranny of what might seem like a perpetual chore. Unstructured play boosts immune response and can also help stimulate creativity, often indispensable to job searches (and a skill coveted by many employers). 7. Shake up your environment Sometimes the brain needs new stimulation to stay sharp. Take a different route to the grocery store or to your kids’ school. Drop in and explore some business or park you always pass by but never enter. Go on a road trip just because. Work on your job applications or update your LinkedIn profile from Starbucks or the local library. Change the surroundings, and your mind will be more alert to everything due to the newness around you. Source www.worldjobtrends.com |

The widely used GreyKey tool is seemingly obsolete after the privacy-protecting iOS 12 update. Employees at GreyKey, an app law enforcement agencies use to access iPhones without the owners’ permission, have said that the latest version of iOS blocks their app from accessing data. Forbes‘ Thomas Brewster spoke with sources at GreyKey’s parent company GreyShift, who confirmed that the update specifically blocks the GreyKey app, and they cannot figure out why. Now, if a phone has the latest iOS update, GreyKey is only able to perform a “partial extraction,” limiting its efficacy to useless scraps of unencrypted files and some metadata. This presents a grave dilemma for GreyShift’s business of securing contracts with law enforcement and federal agencies like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). When police have asked Apple for help accessing into iPhones, Apple has sided with consumer privacy. After the 2015 San Bernardino terrorist attacks, Apple declined a judge’s order to give “technical assistance” to the FBI to access a suspect’s device. Back in April, a Motherboard investigation revealed GreyShift contracts with State Police forces in Maryland and Indiana, and additional ties to the State Department and Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). The app uses a method known as “brute force” entry: automated password guesses that keep going until one works. GreyShift is part of a growing industry working to thwart Apple’s privacy efforts. Earlier this year, an Israeli company called Cellebrite possibly aided a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) raid on an iPhone X. And earlier this month, the FBI opened a suspect’s phone using an iPhone X’s Face ID—the first known instance of the feature being used in a law enforcement investigation. Apple, it seems, isn’t just going to take this lying down. |
Job applications forms, whether online or on paper, are the first vital step to getting a job interview. This step-by-step guide explains how to give employers the information they need to put you on the shortlist. Although some graduate recruiters prefer CVs, the majority ask applicants to complete a job application form, either online or on paper. These forms generally include standard biographical information (eg about your education and experience), along with some open-ended questions that give you the chance to highlight your suitability for the job. How employers use job application forms Many recruiters prefer application forms to CVs because they help to standardise applications. This can be seen as fairer because recruiters can compare candidates easily. The downside is that this standardised approach also allows recruiters to filter out unsuitable candidates quickly (sometimes this is even done by computer), so it’s important to include all the information necessary to make your case. Employers use written applications to select candidates for interview, and may also refer to information on the form during the interview. It’s a good idea to keep a copy so you can remember what you wrote. What employers are looking for in application forms When assessing an application for a job, recruiters want to know two things: 1. Do you meet their criteria? This information lets them filter candidates into a ‘long list’. Make sure you check the job description and prove that you match the requirements. 2. Do you stand out among the other applicants? This is what helps recruiters make their shortlist for interview. If other candidates have similar qualifications it may be your work experience or extra-curricular activities that reveal your employment potential. How to complete a job application form Step 1. Prepare yourself Get all your basic information together: personal details, education etc. Contact the people you want to use as referees, to get their permission and to confirm their contact details. Think about why you want the job. Think about what you have to offer and what makes you stand out. Step 2. Find out what the employer wants Check closing dates; if possible, apply before the deadline. Some employers start processing applications before the closing date – and they are usually deluged by last-minute applications – so if you submit yours early you may get more attention. Read the job description and personal specification to find out what skills and experience they are looking for. Research the organisation for more clues about the kind of applicant who would be successful. Step 3. Write your application Give yourself enough time: writing a good job application is likely to take longer than you expect. Draft your answers first, before you start filling in the form. Read the application form right through before you write anything. Follow all instructions and answer the questions asked (yes, it is a bit like an exam!). If there is a question that does not apply to you, write ‘not applicable’ or ‘N/A’ in the appropriate box. This shows that you have considered the question and is better than leaving blanks. Make your answers relevant, interesting and personal. Your aim is to write your own interview invitation, so you want to stand out. Step 4. Final checks Spell check and proof read your application. If possible, ask a friend or careers adviser to check it too. Check that you have included everything you’ve been asked for. Keep a copy of your application, so you can go over it before the interview. Sign and send! Online application forms Applying for a job online is similar to filling in a paper application form. The questions will be the same; only the format is different. Allow plenty of time and make sure you won’t be disturbed. Some online forms allow you to ‘save and return’ but some have to be completed in one sitting. If possible, print off the form so you can prepare your answers offline. This gives you thinking time and lets you check your answers before pasting the text into the form. Use a word-processed document to write longer answers so you can edit and spell check them first. Write for online applications in the same way as you would for a paper form: beware of lapsing into the informal style you might use when sending emails to friends. If you are asked to email your CV, it is likely to be electronically scanned. You may have to use standard typefaces etc so follow any instructions you are given. If a recruiter is using scanning software, you’ll also need to ensure you include keywords for the specific skills and qualifications that they have asked for. Some online application forms include built-in psychometric tests, so it’s useful to get some practice in first. Keep a copy for reference: print out the form before you hit ‘send’. The ‘further information’ section in job applications Most application forms will include questions such as ‘Why are you suitable for the job?’, ‘What is your greatest achievement?’ and ‘What are your interests and hobbies?’ Don’t ignore it: this is your chance to make an impact. This gives you a chance to reveal something of your personality: aim to show that you’re more interesting than other candidates with similar work experience and grades. Use a range of examples from all areas of your life – college, work and other interests/activities. Sometimes an application form will just have the heading ‘additional information’: this is an open invitation to tell them what you want them to know. However the question is worded, your answers should demonstrate that you are a well-rounded individual with the skills, aptitude and personality to do the job and to fit into the organisation. That’s exactly what a recruiter wants to hear. Job application checklist Here are some final checks before you send off your application form: Are your personal details accurate? Have you spelt the employer’s name correctly? Have you filled in all the fields? Have you signed the form and cover letter? Have you kept a copy? Job application tips Take your time: it could take several hours and a lot of concentration to complete an application form. Think about what’s behind each question: what are recruiters looking for? Keep a copy for reference: if it’s a paper form, photocopy it; if it’s online, print it out before you hit ‘send’. Make sure you meet all the employer’s criteria, and make it easy for them to see this. Article source www.worldjobtrends.com |
