Have you committed career suicide?

It’s be stating the obvious if we told you that with the advent of the internet these days, more and more companies are looking to the world wide web when looking for prospective employees. There are dozens of job search sites that job seekers and employers go to to look for job and look for for people to hire.

The less obvious is that there are employers who aren’t just satisfied with the information indicated in a job website. Some do considerable research and go as far as to research the person (like Google-ing his or her name, for example) on the net.

The worst thing that can happen to you is for an employer to find out some extremely unprofessional article or blog post you did about your previous job(s). So it’s always best to not burn bridges, and keep your digital slate clean.

Job Market Blues

Jobs are being shed from some of the biggest names in the industry by the thousands and not much hiring is going on. Imagine thousands applying for a single job opening, now that’s hard. Thankfully, job search sites are getting better and better allowing more people to get jobs they are qualified for. Some social sites even match not only the jobs themselves but the social inclinations of the people and offices making for better jobs and happier employees.
Certain industries require a different approach to their business such as in the fashion world where you have to be more or less in the know to succeed. IT is another growing field and is expected to grow as more and more industries turn to online marketing and operations saving on manpower costs. Blue collar jobs never wane for they are the foundations of the developed world. Without them, the very structure of the internet would not be possible for there is constant maintenance to be done to keep us on the net.

These thieves can easily trade your SPI with unscrupulous people or entities which they will use to evade tax debts and for so many other ways they can exploit the stolen SPI. One way of preventing theft also is to have a habit of prudent posting. You should be wise in what you post for public access. These days, online social networking is the easiest way to communicate with your friends and relatives.

Job Hunting can be Discouraging

Image Source:images.inmagine.com

It is very hard to search for a job to anyone who has been unemployed for quite a long time. Going through the whole process of job searching is one of the most de-moralising task to undertake for some people. Some people scour the whole job pages of a job search website for hours on end but finds no suitable opportunity for them. Others have come from good universities and finished a good degree and find themselves in a trance. Because it is a fact that many job seekers and employees alike are not really sure of what they really want to end up doing in the long term. While some are clear cut with waht they want to be when they grow up. Those are fortunate people. It is stressful to not know where your job would really lead you, worst, if you’ll ever get to see that job. Clouds can hang over your head when you are depressed. Whats depressing others more, is the fact that even their family are also searching a potential job for them. The hard part is that sometimes, the family just throw anything or any job that they see on the sites or papers on you. Although, it just means that they are concerned of you and really means well.

Actually I’m a B.S. In Information Technology student but due to financial constraints I need to have sideline or “raket” in Filipino slang when I organized a school event “I-AMA conference”, I meet this speaker who toughs us of pro-blogging or professional blogging. We eventually became part of his company as freelance writer who writes in more than 500 sites he have. I’m very happy that I learn this type of work where in I can earn money and at the same time I can share my opinion & point of view towards the audience. My friends also have fun of it since they can express feelings and enhance their writing & research skill towards a subject with the money we earn and enjoyment we experience I can recommend this type of work to you because you can do these during you spare time especially moms who are just at home. You already earn, you will also have fun sharing your opinion & point of view and you will also enhance your writing research skill with this type of work.
