JARUSHUB CAREER TIP FOR APRIL 24, 2017

"Finishing school early can be very helpful in being young and successful. Imagine somebody that started working at twenty years of age. By twenty eight, he already has eight years working experience. That may be enough to be the COO of a company, if you’ve got other qualities like being competent in the job."

JARUSHUB CAREER TIP FOR APRIL 21, 2017

“Beyond the knowledge of their core discipline (which is not so relevant in the market place as any discipline can get you a job in Accenture and most consultancies), most graduates need to improve on their interpersonal skills, diction and communication skills, grooming, presentation skills, data gathering & analysis, problem solving, basic knowledge of business, awareness of their environment and understanding of basic government policies. Some have had a narrow life, and have missed the opportunity, while in school, to gain experience in leading and managing peers, and being accountable for an outcome.”

Successful entrepreneurs are a unique breed of individuals. They sacrifice a lot of things to ensure the smooth running of their businesses. In fact, they are very obsessed with being an entrepreneur. For them, they don’t joke with their morning schedule because if they start off the day on the wrong note, they may not be very productive or motivated. Hence, they ensure that they do not miss their morning routine. Jumia Travel, the online travel agency identifies the things successful entrepreneurs do before 7 am.

They are prepared for the day

They sleep early and wake very early to plan their day. This will prevent them from rushing out of the door every morning and also help them deal with stress.

Eat a healthy breakfast

A healthy breakfast is the most important meal of the day since it’s going oil their brain and body for the day. So, they do not play with their breakfast. Also, they ensure that they do not eat junk foods and fruits are not far away from them.

Their phone is not the first thing they check

When some persons wake up, the first thing they check is their phone. Entrepreneurs don’t do this. In fact, you won’t find their phones close to them when they sleep because it can interrupt their naps. Hence to avoid morning distractions, they avoid their phones in the mornings. They will check it later.

Set goals and priorities

The best time to plan your day and set goals, as well as priorities, is in the mornings. For each day, entrepreneurs write down these goals and try as much as possible to achieve these set goals.

They exercise and meditate

They regularly exercise and meditate to reduce stress, increase energy, and help them sleep better. In addition, it gives their immune system a boost.

They motivate themselves

Entrepreneurs are humans and sometimes they feel overwhelmed. They also need to be encouraged. They don’t wait for others to motivate them. They motivate themselves. That is why you see them upbeat and animate every day.

Our school lives are the most fun when we look back, primarily because it were the days of care-free attitude. Our parents would wake us up and prepare breakfast for us, then we would wait for the van to pick us up. We would stand in the line for assembly await recess and for that final bell that would sound our freedom

Then came college. We grew up to become teenagers. Sometimes worked part-time and the responsibilities just started to mount on us. The coursework burden increased. In school there was homework, in college there were assignments, practical, presentations, in addition to exams. Though exams were applicable under both phases. Heck, life is an exam, so to speak.

Which one’s better? That is a hard question to answer since school came with its own pluses and minuses while college had its own. But the key differences, if we were asked to compare the two, would be as follows:

In high school, we used to know everyone in our class. Our class was a big circle of friends but as we stepped into college we were treated as adults and as adults we had our separate identities and not to mention, egos. We wouldn’t want to sit with the ‘X’ someone for whatever reason because we were too cool or the other was too mainstream.

High school books were relatively cheaper and at the start of each session, we would rush to the nearest bookshop with our parents to buy those new books with fresh covers smelling like heaven. We would purchase new notebooks and mark the subjects we would be studying in school. Along came college, and we only had a couple of registers where we would pen down our entire semester’s notes. Books used to cost us a fortune and we knew we weren’t kids anymore.

At the time of school, you resided with your parents. In college, an on-campus life ensued. The people we became friends with on-campus, we would normally spend time with them. There was no more Mammy to wake us up. We became independent and it prepared us for our future life.

The school was always on time but that wasn’t the case with college. You went when you woke up. Likewise, you had to learn all subjects in school whereas, in college, you chose what you wanted to study.

In school, you had to be on premises from 9 to 4 which was mandatory, five days a week. In college, you were only there when your course/class was scheduled. You even didn’t have to be in college five days a week because sometimes the classes were scheduled over the weekend. No proper lunch breaks either. You ate when there used to be a break between lectures.

After Christmas holidays you had thesame group of peers you were with before holiday season commenced, in school. During college, a semester ended before Christmas and the next one began after the holidays concluded. Therefore, you always had different people classmates every darn time. The way you etched friendships in school was nowhere to be found in college.

Another distinction is that when in school you had to study for the test/exam you did that comfortably sitting from the home. You had everything available in your notebooks and chapters marked in your course books to study from. In college, professors taught you but didn’t provide with any notes, it was you had to do note taking yourself. You didn’t have a textbook to follow rather a number of textbooks for reference from where the test/exam can happen which you were asked to consult on your own. You thereby spent countless hours in the library.

You thought homework was bad in school or was too much. Remember how if you sat one night, you could complete it? Could you achieve the same in college? Of course not! How could you, it was just too much to handle. In other words, a close to impossible task.

The time you spend in high school is governed by social levels. The age group where you lie, you would spend time with them. In college, however, there weren’t such restrictions. You spent time with whoeverbypassing any or all social hierarchical levels. It’s because you grew up!

High school commanded your presence. You had to be there because that’s the way of the world. College life is the complete opposite because it where you want to be out of your own accord. No one is forcing you to show up. Former has mandatory attendance policy while latter had apolicy where it was strongly recommended that you show up.

JARUSHUB CAREER TIP FOR MARCH 30, 2017

“You never knew someone is watching you but what is sure is somebody watching.”

-Suraj Oyewale, The Road to Victoria Island (A Compendium of Essay's and Case Studies on Careers in Nigeria)

While many job applications have the word “optional” next to the field that asks for a cover letter, it shouldn’t be overlooked. After all, a cover letter is intended to show you off and captivate a hiring manager, kind of like a movie trailer. It’s meant to tease and entice the recruiter or hiring manager to keep reading and be so interested in you that they simply cannot put down your resume. Think: personable and professional.

Some of the best cover letters tell interesting stories about the candidate and help them to be seen as a good culture fit for a company. “Recruiters always remember the personal side of cover letters—this is when you become more than just another applicant,” says career expert Heather Huhman. “They connect your experiences with your name because you’re giving them another dimension of you, sharing what makes you unique.”

Given the importance of a cover letter, you cannot afford to blow it. Once you’ve got a working draft, it’s time to grab your red pen. Here are 15 words and phrases that are simply dragging your cover letter down. Cut ‘em! Take the expert advice below to craft the best cover letter possible and let your personality, not robotic prose, shine through.

1. “To Whom It May Concern”

Generic salutations, while professional, can be a bit sterile. Do a little digging to find the name of the hiring manager or the recruiter. “Let’s say you discover an opening for an electrical engineer position at an engineering organization’s website. The position description indicates the employee will report to the lead electrical engineer. You decide (initially) to bypass the company’s automated application system so you can customize your communications,” advises Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter, master resume writer. “You sail over to LinkedIn and begin researching. Use the advanced search feature and type in ‘name of company’ for the company name, ‘lead electrical engineer’ for keywords and ‘64152’ for a zip code for greater Kansas City (where the company headquarters and this position are located) and click enter. Your results will appear.”

2. “Thinking outside of the box”

Recruiters read thousands of cover letters and resumes. It’s their job. So try hard to make reading your cover letter a treat. Career coach Angela Copeland says, “more specifically, stay away from phrases that are known to annoy hiring managers, such as ‘heavy lifting’ or ‘think outside the box’ or ‘game-changer.’” Be creative instead of being trendy.

3. “I’m not sure if you know”

“When it comes to today’s job search process, another thing to remember is your online footprint,” says Copeland. Phrases like this one underestimate a recruiter’s ability to Google and may come across as naive. HR professionals and recruiters do their due diligence on you. Trust us, they know. “In a way, your Google search results are a lot like the modern day cover letter. After an employer reads your cover letter, they will also Google you. Beat them to the punch and Google yourself. Be sure you’re comfortable with the information that shows up on the first two pages of the Google search results. Look through social media, photos, and any other websites that show up when you search for yourself.”

4. Insider Jargon

“Job seekers should try to minimize phrases that are very industry-specific, especially if they’re switching industries,” advises Copeland. “Although these phrases may sound impressive within one industry, they will most likely confuse your hiring manager in the new industry you want to switch to.”

5. Claims Without Evidence

Instead of simply saying you’re good at what you do, Huhman advises providing a valuable anecdote. “Let’s say you’re applying for a marketing director position. Among other aspects in the description, the job requires several years of marketing experience, a deep knowledge of lead generation, and strong communication skills. Describe how, in your previous role as a marketing manager, you ran several campaigns for your clients and exceeded their expectations of lead generation (with specific numbers, if possible), and how you also trained and mentored new associates on how to manage their own accounts, which improved client retention rates.” In other words, show how effective you have been in the past. “Your anecdote is accomplishing a lot at once—it’s demonstrating one of your top hard skills, lead nurturing, and showcasing how you can collaborate with trainees, communicate effectively, and educate new employees on processes and client relations,” says Huhman. “You’re proving that you can meet the communication standards and marketing knowledge they’re seeking.”

6. “Love”

Cut the millennial speak. “You shouldn’t just say that you want the job or that you love your industry. You have to show your passion,” says Huhman. “Share why your career path best suits you and how your love for your work drives and motivates you. For example, answer some questions about what made you want to enter the field, how your personality helps you succeed, and what past experiences influenced your career decisions.”

7. Lies

“Embellishing in a cover letter is one way to set yourself up for letting down your future employer once you’ve been hired,” warns Huhman. Steer clear of touting skills you don’t really possess or overselling your impact on a key project at your current employer. “The best case scenario is that lying on a cover letter creates uncomfortable situations. Worst case scenario? [You’ll lose the] job because [you are] not the candidate they were looking for.”

8. Flattery

“When you’re looking for a job, do your best to bring your authentic self to the table. As the old saying goes, people hire people. Often, you’re hired because the hiring manager likes you – not just because you can do the work,” says Copeland. “Nobody likes insincere flattery. It leaves an impression that you aren’t authentic and therefore can’t be trusted. In business, especially in an employee/employer relationship, trust is paramount. Avoid being insincere, and focus on building a true relationship with your future hiring manager.”

9. “Please feel free”

Ending your cover letter with a clear call-to-action is key, but instead of being gentle, be direct. Show your confidence and prove to the recruiter that you know you wrote a compelling cover letter by wrapping up with a more self-assured request for an in-person interview or phone screen.

10. “Dynamic”

“Get away from stuffing cover letters full of clichéd phrases and think clear, honest, and impactful. Think in terms of telling a story,” says resume expert Anish Majumdar. “You’re not a dynamic, agile leader who can deliver rapid marketing and biz dev ROI in rapidly-changing environments.” Instead, you are someone who thrives on helping companies “more fully realize their vision, and have some amazing successes on the marketing and business development front that you’d like to discuss.”


11. “Significant”

Instead of tiptoeing around the impact you’ve had at your current company with words like “significant,” “measurable,” or “huge,” get specific. Nicole Cox, Chief Recruitment Officer at national recruiting firm Decision Toolbox, advises job seekers to, “substantiate your accomplishments with numbers. Some recruiters prefer to see actual numbers (such as ‘cut manufacturing costs by $500,000’), while others prefer percentages (‘cut manufacturing costs by 15 percent’). Either way, provide enough context to show the impact. If your objective was to cut manufacturing costs by 10 percent, make it clear that you exceeded the goal.”

12. “Really, truly, deeply”

Flowery language and excessive adverbs can come off as insincere. “Don’t get me wrong, you need to share your accomplishments in your cover letter. Nobody else will do it for you. But, you want to come across as confident, not arrogant,” says Copeland. “Fluffy jargon will risk turning off the hiring manager.”

13. Cut, Copy & Paste

Resist the temptation to write a cover letter that regurgitates what you’ve outlined in your resume. Instead, recognize the opportunity that a cover letter presents. “Use the cover letter as an opportunity to highlight the parts of your resume that align to the job,” says Copeland. “And, add things you don’t normally include in your resume that are relevant to the work. For example, I once coached a job seeker who was a university administrator. He was interested to work for a large hotel chain. Although he didn’t have direct hotel experience, his hobbies included both real estate investing and managing a fitness franchise location. This information was critical to him landing a job with the large hotel company.”

14. “Self-Starter,” “Detail-Oriented,” and “Forward-Thinker”

These are what’s known as “frequent offenders” amongst cover letter and resume experts. They are overused and carry little weight these days. “Treat a cover letter as a chance to make a human connection, not a formality,” says Majumdar. “What gets you excited about this job? What have you been up to recently that they’d find interesting? What should they know about you that they couldn’t discern by reading your resume? All great points to touch on in this letter.”

15. Synonyms Out of A Thesaurus

While it may be tempting to head to thesaurus.com to add a few high-brow words and smart-sounding phrases, resist the temptation. Be yourself. Be honest. “This is a prime opportunity to showcase skills,” says Majumdar. Words like “change,” “execute,” “communicates,” and “relationship building” will all get the job done effectively when paired with strong anecdotes and authenticity.

Institutions and students adopt distance learning for a strong reason. Universities gain by enrolling students and that by nothaving to construct housing and classrooms, and the learners and students gain by being able to have freedom to work from anywhere they want.

Distant Learning does provide some freedom to working students, but it also has certain Cons attached to it. Mentioned below are 5 pros and cons of Distance Learning.

Pros

Convenience: You do not study on a college’s semester or annual schedule. You can access all your course material by having an active internet connection and a computer.
No interruptions from Job or Career: As Distance learning classes are located in cyberspace and cloud storage, they can be easily controlled at your own pace. It is not imperative to even asks your employer for an absence or leave for school.

You devise your own working mechanism: The student sets his own pace, schedules and learning outcomes. They can control the learning environment.

Accessibility: When we talk about studying and taking up an online course, it is all about studying from “anywhere” you have computer access.
No travelling expenses: For online courses, you can stay at home and take the course, and there are NO travelling, lodging and boarding costs attached.


Cons

Instructors are not there: You might not get the personal attention that you crave for from a teacher. If you are such a person, then online education is definitely not for you.
No social interaction and live problem solving: Although you do interact with your fellow students via e-mails, discussion groups or chat room, but there are no physical get-together.
Little support: Surprisingly, students are expected to search for their own resources and materials for completing their exams and assignments.
It is ‘Vital’ to adapt to New skills and Technologies: If you are an industrial worker or someone who has never used a computer before, adapting to new technology and submitting assignments online have the full potential to baffle you.
Procrastination? If you think you procrastinate a lot, and you always need an extra push to complete the given task within the given schedule or deadline; Distance learning is not a viable option for you.

The two activities of distant learning and distant teaching together make up distant education. It is also referred as e-learning with internet as the primary medium for imparting knowledge. Distance learning can be a blessing and a curse. It all depends on the student’s background and priorities.

In the 21st century more and more degree-granting institutions of higher education are offering distance education courses primarily through the internet. There are an estimated 100,000 online courses that are available for the students. Interaction is a must when we talk about distance education, as it is the case with any education. The internet has become widely accepted and used. Email has also contributed immensely to distance learning. People living in remote areas with no higher education institutes can benefit highly from E-Learning.
