How LinkedIn Resume Builder Can Ruin Your Job Search by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011 I’m a big fan of LinkedIn and encourage all my clients to use it actively. I’m even writing a guide on how to make the most of it as a job search tool. But not everything LinkedIn does is a good idea and the Resume Builder tool is a perfect example of this. It sounds great in theory – create a LinkedIn profile and then transform it into a resume at the click of a button with no extra work. Who wouldn’t want that? Here’s... |

If You’re Not Going to be Genuine, Don’t Bother by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011 Not long ago, I was invited to join a brand new business social networking site. Because I like the person who sent the invite, I clicked ‘yes’ and signed up. But having looked around, I decided it was much too early stage to spend time on. For the last 3 days, I’ve received an email from the site founder. The first one thanked me for signing up and made reference to the fact I’m a resume writer. I thought that was a nice t... |

The One Rule of Resume Writing You Can’t Afford to Ignore by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011 Just lately, I’ve read a rash of articles claiming to reveal the hard and fast rules of resume writing. They have titles like “5 rules of a great resume” or “10 words you must never use on your resume.” Maybe you’ve read some of these articles. Maybe you’ve even made changes to your resume after finding out that the word “innovative” is now forbidden and must be replaced, or that using the phrase “self-motivated” is akin t... |

Why You Don’t Have to Explain Everything on your Resume by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011 One of the most common mistakes people make when writing a resume is to try and explain everything. Every detail, every situation, every technology used, every job held no matter how short – everything. But this is a mistake. The job of your resume is not to tell the clearest story of what happened – it’s to show your experience in the best light. The Spotlight Analogy Imagine watching a play at the theater. At certain... |

Grumbling About Work? Get Over It! by Dawn Lennon - Jul, 2011 It’s become a pastime, a bit of on-the-job sport. Grumbling starts out innocently but can become all-consuming, taking on many forms like: - Harping about the boss’s annoying habits - Whining about boring work - Complaining about your cubicle location - Obsessing over how long it might take to get promoted The more we grumble, the more we grumble. It’s not a cure for anything, but a perpetuator. Who’s ... |

Horrible Bosses: Art imitiates life for many employees by Kesi Stribling - Jul, 2011 The movie Horrible Bosses pulled in $28.3 million during its premier weekend. That should come as no surprise as the summer heat beckons us to cooler environments. Movie theaters are the perfect place to enjoy a little humor while keeping cool. The draw, however, was not solely the promise of frigid air for a few hours. Folks flocked to the big screen comedy to gain a glimpse into the characters’ world of horrible bosses – and... |

Hungry for Leadership Success? Whip Up a Batch of Principles by Dawn Lennon - Jul, 2011 Serve them to your employees. They’re as hungry for success as you are. Employees know the drill: They’re expected to deliver specific results for which they’re compensated. The better they perform, the more likely their careers will advance.

The “Aggravating” Supervisor Problem | What’s an Employee to Do? by Dawn Lennon - Jul, 2011 There’s a lot of talk about “attitude” in the workplace: - “That employee is giving me a lot of ‘attitude.’” - “If s/he had a better attitude, the work would get done on time.” - “Good performance is about attitude.” Our attitude speaks to our disposition and/or our frame of mind. That’s the platform we start from when we come to work. Built into our attitudes is our sense of fair play, honesty, respect, and... |

Want to Get Heard? Say Less. by Dawn Lennon - Jul, 2011 Did this ever happen to you? You’re in a meeting about a complex problem facing your work group. Everyone’s got their own idea about the cause and what to do about it. The discussion consists of: - Blaming bad decision-making or poor management - One-sided perspectives on the “real” factors obstructing a fix - Accusations about how no one cared about the situation until now - Seat-of-the-pants solutions ... |
