Martha Stewarts career success lessons become a musical

Martha Stewarts career success lessons become a musicalMartha Stewarts career success lessons become a musicalActor Ryan Raftery has made a living out of coveringthe careersof American geschftsleben moguls through song and dance - and now in his upcoming show, hes going to channel the life of the woman who made domestic perfection a multi-million geschftsleben Martha Stewart. Raftery already covered the careersof reality TV executive Andy Cohen and Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, and as the final entry forhis Titans of Media trilogy, he will use Stewarts story to chart the rise and fall (and rise) of Americas first self-made female billionaire. The show is set to have a five-show run at Joes Pub in New York City starting August 7.Stewarts careeris full of Shakespearean twists that are rich for a musical. It was Stewarts former best friend who gave damning testimony in Stewartsinsider-trading trial in 2004, sending the domestic doyenne to jail.A prison stint would have tanked many other careers, but Stewart used her time behind bars to win friends she made jam from the crabapples on the campus and taught her fellow prisoners how to make ceramics. Through Stewarts resilience and business savvy, she mounted a comeback of merchandise deals and partnerships to finally rejoin theboard of her namesake company in 2011.Along the way, she embraced an innovative approach to branding, moving beyond the perfect hostess theme she had pursued before. She grew her reach with unexpectedpartnerships, including Martha Snoops Potluck Dinner Party, a variety cooking show she recently did with rapper Snoop Dogg.According to Raftery, the musicalwill start its story on the day Stewartreported to prison and then will trace Stewarts humble beginnings from 15-year-old New Jersey schoolgirl to lifestylebusiness mogul who changed the way we live our lives by daring us to try harder. His musical follows another show thats charting the rise of female pioneers, War Paint, a musical about the rivalry between 20th century beauty mogulsHelena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden.I had to choose someone on the same level of influence as Andy and Anna, Raftery told Ladders. What I found so fascinating with Stewartis the earnestness she has in her demonstrations. She really wants to helpAnna sells a fantasy. You can read Vogue every day for the rest of your your life, but that doesnt mean youll be able to afford that Chanel suit. But Martha sells attainable perfectionism. She encourages people to create their own world.Raftery will tell histale of American ambition and hubristhrough parodying thetunes of Beyonc, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Metallica and Adele.For Stewarts post-prison comeback number, he adaptedMetallicas Enter Sandman. The energy of heavy death metal is what Stewart would need to rebuild her brand. The feeling of that song is extraordinarily aggressive and Martha is very, very aggressive in how she handles herself, her business, Raftery said. Shes 75 years old and she s not slowing down.As an ardent fan of Stewart, Raftery said he would welcome Stewart seeing his show, but he admits that her presence would leave him anxious. Not only because Im performing a show about her, but because shes an expert in MarthaStewart, he said.If I did something whereshes like, thats not right, or oh no I never said that, or oh look at the pants hes wearing, it would be really nerve-wracking but it would be an honor to have her come and see it.Heres hoping that Raftery breaks throughStewarts calculated, curated persona that built her a media empire to find the unique woman underneath who takes bad pictures of iceberg lettuce and enjoys using her drone to view her vegetable garden.

How to Tell Your Employer You Are Entering Rehab

How to Tell Your Employer You Are Entering Rehab How to Tell Your Employer You Are Entering Rehab In one memorable episode ofThe Office, Steve Carrells character Michael Scott organizes a workplace intervention for his alcoholic employee Meredith - and his so-called surprise party for people with addictions is a total disaster.Michael Scott may be a mid-level manager at a fictional paper company, but his actions do reflect a reality in the workplace Nearly 1 in 10 full-time workers in the United States has recently had a substance abuse problem, according to 2015 findings by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.The lingering stigma surrounding drug and alcohol addiction can impede many addicts from seeking effective treatment. Its difficult to tell your employer that you need to leave work for weeks or months to enter rehab. If you are struggling to get the conversation started, try some of these tipsKnow Your RightsThanks to the Family and Medical Leave A ct (FMLA) of 1993, employees dont have to choose between going to treatment and keeping their jobs. The FMLA allowspeople to take a job-protected leave of up to 12 weeks for family and medical reasons, one of which can be drug or alcohol rehab. (Learn more about whether you are FMLA-eligible.)Do Your Homework Before Talking to Your BossGive plenty of consideration to the circumstances of your employment- How long have you been employed here, and what is your status of employment (full- or part-time, exempt or nonexempt, etc.)?- What does your employee handbook say regarding leave of absence policies?- Do you have a sense of mutual trust and rapport with your higher-ups?Such considerations should factor into any decision about how much information to volunteer. In some cases, sharing more information than is necessary can introduce additional anxiety about an interaction that is already anxiety-producing. Or, that information may come back to haunt you later on when youre back on the job and successfully in recovery.You should also research and confirm the following factors ahead of time so that the conversation goes as smoothly as possible- The exact dates of your time away from work- Your availability to work during treatment, if any- How you are preparing for your absence so that it causes the least amount of disruption to workflow or strain on your supervisor and colleaguesThink about what youll say to your boss before sitting down with them. You may also benefit from consulting with an addiction professional before the meeting. Some rehab programs have counselors on staff who can help you prepare for these sorts of conversations.Decide Whether to Reveal to Your Boss That Youre Going to RehabAs an employee with a health problem, you are entitled to the same degree of privacy as any other employee. You are not legally required to tell your employer the specifics of your condition.In fact, many people entering rehab choose not to divulge this factto their emp loyer. You can always request an unpaid leave of absence for personal medical or non-medical reasons - no further explanation needed. Alternatively, if youve accumulated enough vacation or sick days to cover your time in rehab, you can simply request the time off without needing to ask for medical leave.Be Clear About Your Motivations and Treatment DetailsIf you choose to divulge that youre going to rehab for drugs or alcohol, consider mentioning the following- Your apprehension about the conversation and why you feel that way, whether its the stigma of the disease, the fear that your boss may lose confidence in your abilities, etc.- Your desire to be honest about your medical decision, given that your boss may have concerns about your request or may need a doctors note or other information as verification- How treatment will improve your job performance and reduce absenteeism- A drug-free workplace policy (if there is one) that you take seriously- The provisions of the FMLA, if ap plicable- A request for confidentiality about your decision to enter rehab- Your enthusiasm about returning to work after rehabAvoid going into any detail about the history of your addiction or your uncertainties about the treatment process and whether treatment will help. Try to answer any questions honestly but also as succinctly as possible.Most importantly, keep the tone positive. Remember that your boss has enough to manage. Too many personal details may send the message that they now have another problem on their hands, which is the last thing either of you need - a reminder that comes by way of Michael Scott.Anna Ciulla is the vice president of clinical and medical services atBeach House Center for Recovery.

Tips for Business Owners Returning to the Workforce

Tips for Business Owners Returning to the Workforce Tips for Business Owners Returning to the Workforce Tips for Business Owners Returning to the Workforce Being your own boss is an almost-universal fantasy. Who doesn't dream of being self-employed, calling the shots, never having to ask permission for time off, or being able to fire anyone who pisses you off? Owning a small business can indeed be an exhilarating experience. But it's no guarantee of happiness or success. About half of new businesses fail within their first four or five years, and others are sold once their owners discover that the entrepreneurial lifestyle has at least as many lows as highs.(Time off? Forget about it!) Whatever the reason, many former business owners, myself included, decide to get the hell out and run back to those long-lost friends: a steady paycheck and employer-paid benefits. And then comes the dilemma of how to apply for a non-executive position when your last job title was Owner, Operator, President, and CEO. Having launched, operated, and sold a small business several years ago, I'd like to share what I learned out about the job search when you're transitioning back into the workforce after being self-employed. Your Cover Letter and Interviews Remember how I mentioned that being your own boss is everyone's fantasy? That probably includes your future hiring managers, who will likely wonder how you could ever be happy returning to work for someone else after you got to live the fantasy. (Ha!) So it's important to convey in your cover letter, and especially in your interviews, that you really do want to be back in the workforce, and specifically, that you want the job you're applying for.Present your business-owning past as a valuable experience that prepared you for the next job, rather than as some boss-free utopia you're sad to leave. A good way to do this is to prepare a story that communicates three things: How good you are at X [X being a skill that's important in the job you're applying for]. That owning a business prevented you from doing as much X as you would have liked. You really look forward to a role where you can get back to X. For example, let's say X = Marketing: Marketing is one of my greatest strengths and favorite aspects of business, but I wasn't able to focus on marketing as much as I would have liked when I owned my business. There was always a shipping glitch or an accounts payable issue or some other crisis that pulled me away. So I'm excited to get back to a role like this one, where I can apply my marketing expertise to help build your brand and your bottom line. What About Your Resume? While the job title President on your resumemay be accurate, it's not helpful in communicating your value to your next employer. It might even get you rejected because you appear to be way overqualified. Since you were your own boss, you can retroactively (and truthfully) give yourself almost any job title, depending on where you want to be next:Marketing Communications Specialist, Customer Support Supervisor, Accounting Manager, Purchasing Agent, Equipment Repairperson, Quality Assurance Specialist, HR Generalist, Event Planner... right on down to ChiefCook and Bottle Washer, as my Irish grandmother used to say. If you're applying for that marketing job, you could say something like: Marketing Communications Specialist Yourname Enterprises, Inc. April 2006 to July 2009 Owned and operated a service business, holding sole responsibilityfor marketing communications, branding, PR, advertising, search engine optimization Built customer base from 0 to 70 clients, achieving annual gross sales of $150,000 Established email marketing campaign that generated an average of 30 leads and 12 new customers a month As a job seeker, your goal is to demonstrate your value to your next employer, regardless of what your old business card might have said. These ideas worked for me, but I'm sure there are plenty of others. If you've transitioned from business ownership back into the role of employee, or hired someone who did, what would you advise?

Cleaning Services Agreement FAQ - United States

Cleaning Services Agreement FAQ - United States Cleaning Services Agreement FAQ - United States Cleaning Services Agreement BasicsWhy isn't an oral Cleaning Services Agreement sufficient?The problem with oral agreements is that they are difficult to prove. If a dispute arose, a court would have to hear evidence and decide whose version of the truth to accept. If there is a written agreement, courts will generally be obligated to uphold its terms even if they don't agree with them. What is addressed in a Cleaning Services Agreement?Cleaning Services Agreements typically address the following: the parties to the agreement; the service being offered; the term of agreement; and the compensation that will be provided to the Cleaning Services Provider. In addition, Cleaning Services Agreements may also provide specifics on: how confidential information is to be treated upon the Cleaning Services Provider's termination; whether there are limitations on the Cleaning Services Provider's ability to compete with the Customer's business upon the Cleaning Services Provider's termination; and how disputes between the Customer and Cleaning Services Provider will be handled. Who are the parties to the Cleaning Services Agreement?The parties to the Cleaning Services agreement are the Customer and the Cleaning Services Provider. The Customer is the individual or business seeking the Cleaning Services while the Cleaning Services Provider is the individual or corporation providing the Cleaning Services. What is the difference between an Employment Contract and a Cleaning Services Agreement?A Cleaning Services Agreement is a type of Service Agreement.Cleaning Services Agreements are used to hire Cleaning Services Providers or independent contractors, not employees. A Cleaning Services Agreement is limited to a specific project or time period. Employment Contracts are used to hire employees. What is the difference between an employee and independent contractor?Independent contractors are individuals who provide services for a fee but are not considered to be employees because they work for themselves and do not have an employer. Examples of independent contractors include those who operate their own practice or trade in fields such as plumbing, carpentry or graphic design or in more specialized technical settings such as accounting, engineering or computer programming. The law treats employees and independent contractors differently, but it is not always easy to establish which category an individual falls into. In cases of dispute, courts will determine the appropriate category by examining a number of factors. Some factors will be considered more important than others. Examples of relevant factors are: who is providing the tools for the job; the level of skill required for the job; who controls the work and the work product; whether the hired party must provide oral/written progress reports; whether the job is performed on the business premises; the duration of the relationship between the parties; the ability to delegate or sub-contract the job of the hired party; whether the hired party has discretion over how long and when they work; whether any insurance or benefits are provided to the hired party; whether the hired party's expenses are reimbursed; whether the hired party can realize a profit or loss; whether the work is part of the regular business of the hiring party; whether the parties have a written agreement defining the status of the hired party; the method of payment; and the way the hired party is treated by taxing authorities. Is this a Master Service Agreement?No. If you need a Master Service Agreement as well as subordinate agreements, you should consult a lawyer qualified in your jurisdiction. Term of AgreementWhat is the end date of the agreement?The end date is the date when the Cleaning Services under the agreement are no longer provided or needed. What does notice mean?Notice refers to the amount of time that is provided by one party to another when they wish to end their obligations under the agreement prior to the agreed end date. The purpose of notice is to allow the Cleaning Services Provider to find other employment or the Customer to find a replacement Cleaning Services Provider. In most jurisdictions, the law does not offer independent contractors the same minimum notice protection that is typically offered to employees (unless the notice is expressly provided in the agreement). However, courts may award notice (or pay in lieu of notice) to an independent contractor if he/she can show that he/she was economically dependent on the Customer. In those circumstances, courts may impose a reasonable notice period or damages. CompensationHow should the Cleaning Services Provider be paid?The Cleaning Services Provider can be paid or compensated in many different ways. If the Cleaning Services Provider will be paid a certain amount (rate) for each time period, use Hourly, Weekly, Monthly or Yearly as appropriate. If the Cleaning Services Provider is to be paid a certain fixed amount for the complete performance under the agreement, use Fixed Amount. If the Compensation is several payments or involves the trade of services or goods, use Other. If you have a certain rate for the services performed together with additional remuneration, use this question for the basic rate and use the Additional Compensation question to describe the additional compensation. Which currency should I select?Select the form of currency for all monetary amounts (compensation, expenses, etc.) referred to in this agreement. What is additional compensation?Additional compensation refers to any compensation the Cleaning Services Provider will be paid in addition to the basic compensation specified under the question How will the Cleaning Services Provider be paid?. What items should be provided to the Cleaning Services Provider?If the Customer wishes to provide any services, tools, office space, materials, etc. to the Cleaning Services Provider to perform the services, then the Customer should select Yes to the question Will the Customer be providing anything to the Cleaning Services Provider? and then describe what he/she is providing. What does Penalties for late payment? mean?This question refers to whether the Customer will be penalized for failing to pay the Cleaning Services Provider on time. Select Do not specify to not mention whether there will be penalties for late payment. Select No if the Agreement will expressly state that there are no penalties for late payment. Select Yes to be able to expressly state what the penalties will be for late payment. What does Penalties imposed for non-performance of the services in a timely manner? mean?This question refers to whether the Cleaning Services Provider will be penalized for failing to perform the services on time. Select Do not specify to not mention whether there will be such penalties. Select No if the Agreement will expressly state that there are no such penalties. Select Yes to be able to expressly state what the penalties will be for failing to perform the services on time. What is a 1099 form?For income tax purposes, Form W-2 is used to report ordinary employee wages, salary and tips, however, self-employment earnings must also be reported. Form 1099 is used to report self-employed, service related income. Usually the payer will provide a completed Form 1099 to the payment recipient as well as to the IRS. Various kinds of income other than wages and salaries are reported using Form 1099 but the most common use of the Form 1099 is for reporting earnings as an independent contractor. Restrictive CovenantsWhat is a confidentiality clause?The confidentiality clause prevents the Cleaning Services Provider from using or disclosing the Customer's confidential business information to a third party. Dispute ResolutionWhat do mediation and arbitration mean?Mediation is a process where an impartial 3rd party or mediator facilitates the negotiation of a settlement between parties to a dispute. Arbitration is a process whereby parties to a dispute mutually agree to an impartial referee who hears and makes a binding decision. Both processes are superior to the court process when there is a long term relationship involved and the survival of the business relationship is desirable. These processes can be less expensive, more expedient, and more efficient than the court process. MiscellaneousWhat is contained in the standard clauses?Our standard clauses are those clauses which are most often included when creating a Cleaning Services Agreement. Some of the clauses deal with: assignment; the capacity of the independent contractor; modification of the agreement; time being of the essence; and severability of invalid or unenforceable clauses. If you don't want all these clauses in your agreement, select 'No' and you can pick and choose which clauses to include. What is meant by Corporation/Organization under the Type of Customer and Type of Service Provider fields?A Corporation is a duly registered corporate entity. An organization can be any other type of business entity such as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or a Limited Liability Company. If you are entering the agreement as the representative of a business then you would select the Corporation/Organization option. If you are acting strictly for yourself then select the Individual option. What does the Assignment clause do?The Assignment clause prevents the Cleaning Services Provider from transferring their rights or responsibilities to another party without the Customer's consent. What does the Capacity/Independent Contractor clause do?The Capacity/Independent contractor clause reiterates that the Cleaning Services Provider is hired as an independent contractor or consultant and not as an employee of the Customer. Note that disguising an employment relationship as an independent contractor in order to avoid having to pay employee benefits like holiday pay, pension, worker's compensation and income tax is illegal. A court may find that a work relationship is an employee/employer relationship if the person hired is closely supervised and directed by the hirer. An independent contractor usually provides a skilled service, is paid for a specific result, controls how the services are provided, is free to refuse additional work, and usually bears the cost of repairing faulty work. A court would take all these factors into consideration when deciding if a particular work relationship was a sham contracting arrangement. What does the Modification of Agreement clause do?The Modification of Agreement clause states that any changes to the agreement must be made by written consent of all the parties to the agreement. What does the Time of the Essence clause do?This clause provides that all dates and time limits are strictly enforced. What does the Entire Agreement clause do?The Entire Agreement clause confirms that there are no other provisions or terms outside of this agreement. What does the Severability clause do?The Severability clause declares that if the courts find that a particular clause of the agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions of the agreement will not be affected. What does the Return of Property clause do?The Return of Property clause states that the Cleaning Services Provider will return all property belonging to the Customer upon termination of the Agreement. What does the Limitation of Liability clause do?This clause allows the parties to completely absolve the Cleaning Services Provider in the event that any losses, damages or any other liabilities arise out of the services provided. Where this clause is selected, the contract cannot also have an indemnification clause. What does the Indemnification clause do?An Indemnification clause is where the Cleaning Services Provider agrees to pay back the Customer for claims made against the Customer by any third party for any damage or loss arising out of the provision of the services. Where this clause is selected, a limitation of liability clause cannot be selected. What does the Legal Expenses clause do?The Legal Expenses clause reiterates that legal costs and fees associated with any legal action will be awarded to the successful party. What does the Notice clause do?The Notice clause indicates how all notices under this agreement will be given. What does the Enurement clause do?The Enurement clause declares that any rights and responsibilities of the parties will pass on to their successors. What does the Titles/Headings clause do?The Titles/Headings clause states that the titles/headings of each section are inserted for clarification only and are not for purposes of interpretation. What does the Gender clause do?The Gender clause declares that words in the singular or masculine sense also encompass words in the plural and feminine sense, respectively. What does the Waiver clause do?The Waiver clause states that if one party waives its rights to enforce a breach by another party, this failure to enforce its rights will not be held as a waiver of any subsequent breaches. What does the Ownership of Materials clause do?The Ownership of Materials clause declares that materials developed in the course of the services will be the exclusive property of the Customer. The clause further holds that the Cleaning Services Provider will not be held responsible for damages resulting from the use of the mentioned materials for work other than services contracted for in the agreement.

Top 5 Non-Accounting Skills

Top 5 Non-Accounting Skills Top 5 Non-Accounting Skills In today’s competitive job market, finance and accounting applicants often come with resumes chock-full of certifications and professional qualifications. But did you know it takes non-accounting skills to set yourself apart from the crowd? An Accountemps survey found that, in addition to traditional accounting knowledge, CFOs see general business knowledge as the most-valued non-accounting skill, followed by information technology, communication skills, leadership abilities and customer service orientation. (See the infographic below for details.) So if you’re solely focused on crunching numbers, you might be overlooking critical soft skills needed to be an accountant today. Here are five reasons why these non-accounting skills are in demand: 1. General business knowledge Accountants are playing a larger role in businesses today. Employers are looking for accounting and finance professionals who possess strong business acumen to help develop strategy, inform key decisions and serve as business partners across multiple departments. 2. Information technology As organizations face mounting pressure to meet corporate governance regulations and ensure the security and integrity of their financial data, aptitude in emerging accounting technology becomes particularly important. Employers are looking for accounting professionals who are proficient in the latest database applications and enterprise resource planning programs. Also, many companies are migrating to more sophisticated systems and analytical tools, so they’ll need accounting and finance professionals with strong technical know-how to adapt quickly. 3. Communication skills Accounting and finance staff need to be able to tell the story behind the numbers, particularly for colleagues in other departments less familiar with accounting principles and jargon. Both verbal and written communication skills are critical for success in an accounting role. Looking for more career advice, accounting professionals? SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER 4. Leadership abilities Managers have an eye on the future and want professionals who possess strong leadership qualities who can step into more senior roles when the time is right. They look for individuals who can avoid or resolve conflicts, adapt well to change, mentor others and embrace continuous learning. 5. Customer-service orientation “How can I help you?” shouldn’t be a phrase far from accounting professionals’ minds. Hiring managers today seek employees willing to roll up their sleeves and pitch in, even if it doesn’t directly benefit them. Remember to give excellent customer service to your colleagues on the job, too. Your career will benefit from it. As an accountant or finance professional, you may already have the technical expertise and certifications to do the job. If you want to advance in your career, though, you really need to demonstrate other qualities - these non-accounting skills that are essential to your success.

Common Cover Letter Mistakes

Common Cover Letter Mistakes Common Cover Letter Mistakes As a leading provider of professional resumes and cover letters, the team at Resume Spice has seen it all. The only thing worse than a bad cover letter is a perfectly qualified individual whose chances at an interview are shot by a few easily avoidable errors. We don’t like to see that happen. Review the list below and see if you can make any of these small, but important changes that just might help you land your next opportunity. Repeating your resume. Your cover letter is not the place to rehash your resume. Instead, it’s an opportunity for you to rouse the employer’s interest. Focus on showing why you want the job and what qualities you bring to the table. Writing too much. It’s okay to write a lot when you’re drafting your cover letter. But before you send it to a hiring manager, spend some time thoughtfully editing the message you’re trying to convey. You want to demonstrate that you’re concise, can organize your thoughts, and can communicate well. Focus on keeping your cover letter under one page. Typically, 2-3 paragraphs will do the trick. Sending the same cover letter to every company. Every job you’re applying to will have its own unique requirements, so you’ll need to customize each of your cover letters to showcase why you’re the best fit for those requirements. Not proofreading. Read your cover letter at least three times aloud. Sometimes your eyes will skip something incorrect, but if you read it aloud, your ears will pick up on anything that doesn’t sound quite right. Just to make sure you’re sending a cover letter that reads well and sounds credible, send it to a trusted friend or colleague for a quick review. Bringing it together Tweaking each cover letter is going to take some time, but no detail should be overlooked when you’re trying to find your next opportunity. Let us help! If you need a little help getting started on your cover letter or want to talk to a career consultant about how to â€" ahem â€" spice up your cover letter, give Resume Spice a call or contact us to chat with one of our consultants about how our professional services can help you.

How Your Online Presence Can Affect Your Job Hunt

How Your Online Presence Can Affect Your Job Hunt How Your Online Presence Can Affect Your Job Hunt PinThere’s no doubt that there is increased competition in the labor market, and because of this, recruiters are turning to social media more than ever to find or evaluate potential candidates. In fact, according to a recent survey done by Jobvite, 93 percent of recruiters use or plan to use social media to support their recruiting efforts. This means your online presence can affect your job hunt! So what does that mean for those on the hunt for a job? Two things: utilize the benefits of social media, but also be cognizant of how your online presence can affect your job hunt. If you learn to leverage your social profiles and network correctly, you can position yourself above other candidates. In fact, 55 percent of recruiters have reconsidered a candidate based on their social profile. Here are a few ways to make sure your profile is prepared for your job hunt: Keep your pages clean. If you haven’t already done so, clean up for your social media profile pages before you start applying for jobs. First, make sure there are no unbecoming photos of you. A good rule of thumb is to refrain from having any photos of you acting in a way that could be construed as inappropriate or could paint you in an unflattering light. Second, keep your political views non-existent. Even though social media is designed for expressing yourself, displaying these views could seriously sway a recruiter on whether you would be a good cultural fit for the company, regardless of how qualified you are for the job. Third, review your status updates. Remove any complaints about your job or former employer, or any negative statuses in general. By cutting down on the complaints and negativity on your social profiles, you’ll paint a picture of an optimistic and positive candidate. Not ready to purge your social media profiles? Simply adjust your privacy settings on your profiles to a level that makes you feel comfortable. Maintain a good reputation online. Dan Schawbel, author of Me 2.0, says, “Your first impression isn’t made with a firm handshake- it’s with a Google search.” Make sure your first impression online is a reputable one. As recruiters search for your name on Google, they’ll be looking at not only your social profiles but other public information that pops up about you. What if nothing pops up? That’s a good thing, right? Not exactly. If you’re nowhere to be found on Google, employers may question whether you have kept up with the latest trends or are qualified for a job that requires minimal digital skills, says Dorie Clark, a blogger for Harvard Business Review. Start by Googling yourself to see what you can find. If you find nothing, a good way to start building an impressive online reputation is to blog about the industry you’re looking to jump into. For example, if you’re looking for a job in fashion, start a blog about the latest fashion trends or review your favorite designers. This way, you’ll position yourself as engaged in the industry, a key component recruiters look for. Social media is a unique tool for recruiters. They can now uncover mutual connections, evaluate skills by reviewing written or design work, and asses a candidate’s personality for a cultural fit within the company. If you leverage social media to brand yourself as a professional, knowledgeable, and personable candidate you’ll stand out as top contender for whatever position you seek. Readers, what does your online presence say about you? Do you harness the power of social media in your search? Share with us below!

5 Examples of Transferable Skills and Why Theyre Important

5 Examples of Transferable Skills and Why They’re Important 5 Examples of Transferable Skills and Why They’re Important 8There are likely a few skills listed on your resume that hold more weight than you might know. The skills we’re talking about are considered “transferable,” meaning they can move with you from job to job, or even from task to task within a particular job. While it’s a good idea to have highly specialized skills listed on your resume that speak to your specific abilities as they relate to a particular job, it’s also a good idea to highlight some of these transferable skills, which can help showcase your ability to wear many different hats. Here are some of the most common transferable skills and why theyre important to point out:   1. Teamwork No man or women is an island, and this is just as true in our careers as it is in life. By using a couple lines in your resume to point out any awards, accolades, or successes that you accomplished as part of a team, you’ll be proving to future employees that you can work well with others, delegate, and take direction, all while keeping a smile. In addition, knowing how to answer the question: “Would you rather work on a team or alone?” in an interview can be crucial. 2. Organization It will be hard to get anything done in the professional world without a little bit of organization. People who remain organized in their careers are able to stay on top of deadlines, keep track of how other people are performing, bring in new business, and stay connected with contacts, among other things. If youre applying for a remote job, organization is a top skill hiring managers are looking for. 3. Communication Similar to teamwork, your ability to work well with coworkers speaks volumes about the type of employee you will be. As such, anything you can do to prove that you excel at communication will help drive home this point. For example, maybe you were the project lead on a group that brought in new clients or cashflow for your company, or perhaps you implemented a new system that kept everyone in touch and up to date on work-related topics despite different work schedules and locations. If youve worked remotely in the past, list what tools you used to proactively communicate with your manager and coworkers. 4. Multitasking In today’s crazy work world, multitasking is probably one of the most coveted job skills. For example, a good employee might be able to prep for and successfully lead a team meeting, field a call from a new prospective client, and return a couple dozen emails…all before lunch. Of course the best multitaskers can juggle these multiple jobs successfully, meaning that nothing falls through the cracks or is mishandled in the process. If that sounds like you, shout it out from the rooftops! (Or at least be sure to include it on your resume.) 5. Problem-Solving No matter what field you’re in, problems are bound to come up. Anyone can recognize when a problem is impending, though- the real skill comes in delivering a solution. Take some time to point out a couple ways you solved problems in the past in your cover letter and you’ll be showing how invaluable you will be to future employees. Looking for a new job?

Pros and Cons of a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Policy

Pros and Cons of a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Policy Pros and Cons of a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Policy Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies are set by companies to allow employees to use their personal smartphones, laptops, and tablets for work. A BYOD policy can help set a business up for success- especially a small company- but there are definite downsides to consider. If youre thinking about implementing a BYOD policy, its a good idea to review some of the pros and cons before making a decision. Pros Savings for the company on purchasing and replacing technology No learning curve for employees Potential improvement of employee morale More up-to-date tech due to personal upgrades Cons More complex IT support for disparate devices and operating systems Higher security risks Potential loss of employee and company privacy Some employees may not have their own devices Pros of a BYOD Policy Savings: With a BYOD policy, you wont have to buy phones and laptops for every employee. Some employees may not have their own devices, but a recent Pew Research survey found that 77 percent of American adults already own a smartphone, and 92 percent of people ages 18 to 29 years old own one. In addition, employees are more apt to take better care of their equipment because it actually belongs to them. Usually, employees know that if they lose or break their company phone, its a pain, but the company will provide a new one. If they lose or break their own phone, it tends to be a much bigger deal. Convenience:  Employees can stick one phone in their pockets and dont have to worry about taking care of two devices. Preference:  If John likes iPhones and Jane likes Androids, both can happily use their preferred system. They dont have to learn new systems. Often, if your company pays to install Microsoft Office or Photoshop or whatever software the employee needs for work on an employees personal laptop, the employee is happy to have the software for personal work as well.   Efficiency: Employees have no learning curve for new equipment because they already understand how to use their own electronic devices. They can jump in on day one for immediate productivity. Up-to-date tech:  Its a huge expense for any company to update equipment, but employees are often more motivated to pay to replace their personal phone or laptop with the latest available device. Cons of a BYOD Policy Complex IT support: If every employee has a standard issue computer, tablet, and phone, its easier for the IT department to support and fix the devices. If everyone has their own device, it can become much more complex to keep the electronics functioning. If you need to install custom software, will it work on everyones devices? What if Jane isnt willing to update her laptop? What if John wants to run Linux while everyone else is running Windows? Higher security risks: What type of data does your organization generate and use? Its easy to make rules about how employees should use company devices, but its not quite so easy to tell your employees that they cant let their 13-year-old write a school paper on their own laptop. What are you going to do to make sure that your company information is kept secure? Also, when employees leave the company, youll want to remove any confidential information from any employee device. But, you dont want to delete their personal information. No one is happy if you say, “IT needs to wipe all of your photos and documents from the computer to make sure that you dont take any confidential information.” Potential loss of privacy: Youll need to determine how youll secure your companys confidential information before an employee agrees to use his equipment for work. Make sure that you state clearly, from the beginning, what you will do with classified information on the device or youll have problems when an employee leaves. If Jane is a salesperson who uses her personal phone number for work purposes when she quits and moves to your competitor, all of her clients still have her phone number in their records. When they call, shell answer, and Jane will have a much easier time to move those clients to her new company.  Even if Jane signed a non-compete agreement, if the customers come to Jane, you cant legally stop them. As long as Jane isnt pursuing the customers, shes in the clear. Conclusions About BYOD Policies A BYOD policy may work well for smaller companies. However, its wise not to make the decision based purely on the convenience and cost factors. Think about how a BYOD policy will have an impact on your business and think about what your employees want. Look to the future and make decisions about how to handle the devices when an employee leaves your organization. Suzanne Lucas is a freelance journalist specializing in Human Resources.
