I still want to help!

I still want to help!

Nothing last's forever, including unemployment, recessions and hard times.
There will be an upturn...times are destined to improve.  Will you be ready? Now is the perfect time for transition...

This journey of mine has been very "uphill", however I have learned so much. I wish to share that knowledge with people as my way of paying forward all the blessings I have received and will receive..

If you are 1. Currently working but looking to go back to school and have some hurdles, I want to work with you. or 2. Currently unemployed, looking looking to return to school and find employment but there are some hurdles... I want to work with you.
I am looking for 2 people who need the benefit of working with an individual who is dedicated to bringing people up and over hurdles.... I am also learning and developing my craft so there is NO FEE for any of this. I simply want to help.

In box me your contact information and give a basic description of what your hurdles are. If I can work with you I will let you know. The only requirement is to "pay it forward" once your moment of transition to prosperity has started.

If you are not in need but know of someone, who could use a little encouragement and guidance, please pass this note along.  God is awesome, he has a purpose for us all- tap into yours.

Why Branding Your Resume Produces a High ROI

Posted By: Jessica Holbrook On: 2/10/2011 11:45:13 AM In: Job Seeker - Resume
Learn how to brand your resume and produce a high ROI.



It has been no secret in advertising and marketing for some time now that you need to know your target audience. And it really isn’t any different in a job search. You need to know who your audience is, what their needs are, and how to communicate the benefits of what you offer.

Last autumn I jumped head first into a huge conversion rate optimization project. I was doing hours of research and work to figure out everything I could about Web site optimization and conversion rates. One of the most interesting points I discovered was about communicating to your audience the benefits that come with your service, product, etc., or how the person will benefit - not just selling the “features”.

I was very intrigued by this notion and how applicable it is to resume development. As a job seeker, it’s so important to know your audience and to communicate to them the value and benefits an employer will receive from HIRING you. The benefits they get from hiring you are unlike hiring any other person—you are a rare commodity. I have news for you—you ARE the only person out there just like you!

It’s critically important that your resume transparently articulates the BENEFITS you bring to the employer—because THEY are unlike any other. The best way to do this is by branding your entire resume with these benefits—not just a short branding statement at the top. The remainder of your resume needs to support the branding statement and precisely detail the most pertinent benefits the employer can expect upon hiring you. Constructing your resume in this manner produces a clear picture for the hiring manager and makes it an easier decision for him or her to interview you—thus securing you more interviews.

You can’t afford not to brand your resume, cover letter, or any other element of your job search. Partnering with a professional resume writer can secure interviews more quickly, decrease your job search time (and frustration), and save you lots of money (from lost time being unemployed or working for a lower salary).

Tips

 When preparing for an interview, it never hurts to have a mock interview with a friend or family member. Most employers will want you to tell them about yourself and how your experience can best serve the "needs of the company" If you have done your research your answers should always correlate with the ad t...hat describes the position and your personal experiences. Remember 

"PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT"...

Tips

Are you displaced from college because of financial issues? I.E. loan in default? School won't accept your financial aid due to not meeting academic standards? Remember there is a second right answer to resolving these issues- A loan can be placed in deferment if you lack financial stability- You can appeal to the school for acceptance and enter in on probation- or you can attend an online institution (there are a ton of accredited online schools).

Financial Literacy-- The basics

TERMS

  • Assets= Things of value you own= house(real estate, cars or other vehicles, stocks bonds, 401k investments, jewelry, art, business ownership and cash on hand
  • Liabilities= debt you owe (what you owe on your assets)= home mortgage balance, car loans and leases, lines of credit, cc balances, ...and personal loans
  • Assets= stuff
  • Liabilities= debt
stuff-debt= net worth...
In a nutshell; if your stuff is < your debt you have negative "net worth".

Just like any exercise program will direct you - in order to trim the fat you must do the cardio-
the fat in Financial fitness is your debt- Trim you debt to increase your net worth. By doing this you are more likely to improve your overal...l financial health for the future.

Whats the cardio? Well in finances it is the leg work required to do such things as reduce interest rates on cc, creating a budget, liquidating some assets to payoff debt, negotiating and disputing adverse collections with creditors and eliminate bad or unnecessary debt.

The benefit--- cutting the fat can move you from the "red' or negative net worth to the "black" or positive net worth which will increass your financial health so that better long term financial decisions can be made
