How Can I Exercise When I Travel For Work All The Time?

Posted on by July 15, 2015

It’s hard to squeeze in exercise when you travel all the time. So here are a few ideas you might not have considered:

  • Take a walk to sightsee in the town you’re visiting. Walking two miles can burn 95 to over 200 calories, based on your weight and the speed you walk.
  • Walk to the restaurant instead of driving. Every bit adds up.
  • Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
  • Can’t find a close parking space? No worries, the extra walk will help.
  • No exercise room at the hotel? Not much time? Check out the infogram below to see how squeezing in just these few exercises can add up fast to burn those calories away.

Have you been brain-washed with the old rules of resume writing? Is your resume boring and not allowing your personality to show through? Are you trying to “stick” with these old rules? Please! It’s a new day.

You don’t want your resume to go “thru the black hole recruiting portal” but you DO want them to go into the “human” hands of the hiring managers. You DO want your “light” to shine through. You can still use the keywords that will be picked up by the search engines but use them as to appear human. You need to make your resume such that the human that ultimately sees your resume; sees and likes the person behind it. There really isn’t a safe way to write a resume so why not show your personality?

Job Searching When You Are Over 50

Posted on by August 12, 2015

Are you an older person (over age 50) and looking for work? Were you among the thousands that were laid off during the recession? Are you working hard trying to find a way to get back into the workforce?

There are several ways to market yourself that will help you get ready for the current job market. It can be rather demoralizing when you think of how much money you were making and to know that it is unlikely that you will be able to start in a new job with that kind of money.

When you are preparing your resume, realize and reveal your unique skills and strengths. Also acknowledge and fix your weaknesses. Sometimes those weaknesses can be physical or attitudinal as well as work-related with these having to do with how the job market has changed. All these can be fixed! Example: If you are looking or acting older than you want, you can update your dress, hair style etc. Be sure to show your work ethic as well as your personality, and of course, your willingness to change and be as proficient as any younger employee.

Please read our article Is Hiring Seniority Worth the Money and follow our job seeker tips for advice. Also, be sure to opt into our email marketing campaign for further guidance and help in getting you ready to compete with the younger people in the job market.  You can also follow us on Pinterest and Like us on Facebook!

Is Your Job Making You Happy?

Posted on by May 25, 2015

Are you happy at work?  Do some days seem gray when you would like to be anywhere other than on the job?

I’m sure that there are days that you feel completely miserable and seem to be waiting for the proverbial shoe to drop.  Sometimes the negativity you feel can be solved by just figuring out what is causing this feeling.  Is it a co-worker, your actual job, or just a portion of certain tasks in that job?

Maybe your co-workers are just as unhappy as you are and if you could swap certain tasks, it would help everyone be in a better place. It helps to be involved with your co-workers, somewhat but not to the extent that you visit during work hours.

Please read our article 7 Tips to Become More Organized.  Often becoming better organized can solve those areas of discontent as well. If you are better organized, it can positively affect your attitude and make some of that unhappiness go away.
