They interviewing a new employee or to try to find some - some of the best writers of his team to be able to identify the capabilities of the weak letter is to refine a key skill to work. Remember: You do not want an important job in the country in writing, because he spend in the hands of a bad writer Hours communicate their work under.

So how can you find an author who needs help? Usually it is not too difficult. Here are some - indicates some of the common mistakes that the recovery, if someone needs to training to write.

1. Variable Syntax

Nobody likes the sentence structure over and over again to read - it uninteresting material makes it very fast. unchangeable syntax is a red marker to write indicating skills in need of a job, so be sure the way to constantly change frame your words during his work. Prepositions are friends.

2. The words addicts

bad writers often have difficulty using the correct word, and make the unfortunate mistake to use a word that sounds good - but mean something quite different from what they want to say. This could include the use of "hard work" instead of "sensitive" or "discrete" instead of his "discreet".

3. Run-ons

Turn each report with long sentences that are run-ons and let his team know that your writing skills are not as strong as it should be at a professional level. Instead discussed to put commas and semicolons at the in long sentences, use short, clear sentences, making the work.

4. Overload adverb

Author Stephen King is quoted as saying: "The road to hell is paved with adverbs." Why? Because adverbs explain the action instead of the series. These words, which should end up in the eye be used sparingly - not as a normal part of the letter. Try replacing adverbs an authoritarian language.

5. No open issues

I always recommend every piece of business writing examined by at least two different sets of eyes, before they are released. This ensures that the processing and improve its polished and refined condition. However, the poor authors contend constructive feedback and changes in the other to accept - and that makes his writing experience. One of the easiest ways to improve your writing, the help of others is acceptable.

6. limited vocabulary

Those with writing skills exchange know overused words for various small, which makes it even more interesting and enjoyable reading. To a weak writer, if the same set of words and phrases instead of a stable Stick find vocabulary (or just use a thesaurus.)

This phone interview Dodge 7 Common Mistakes

By Hannah Morgan

Has it happened to you? Blue, your phone rings. He is a person, a company that used supposedly, but does not have the name of the company or the job title. This scenario is very common, and how controls can determine whether you go the next interview or not.
If you are job hunting again, there are hundreds of situations like this have not experienced before. Thus the fastest corner, here are some scenarios that telephone interviews are you need to know how to treat.

1. "What is working - this again" It may not be possible for any work you remember applying for. The reality is that if you are actively looking for work, many places enrolled in. It is to be the responsibility of the position, and that the job title and company requested to follow reference works. In the spirit of a recruiter, your job is the only one that has been applied. In other words, there can be no job title, and company's full name. Do not feel embarrassed to ask for more information or to clarify the work that you ask about. Ask what company I was with and to describe the work even more.

2. Discussions on the street or in public. You should stay at home waiting for a call, but keep in mind that each answer could be a call to a prospective employer. Do you afraid to ask if you reschedule an unexpected phone call, if the conditions are not good. Want to make a good first impression. If you intend a telephone interview have to do on your phone - not to be distracted and your files can be accessed with the work and resume, the application uses.

3. Do not know the interview format to know -. If the recruiter will conduct the interview by telephone or video? Do you know how long it is expected to keep the conversation? There are no guidelines for regular interviews lineup. Each company has a unique approach, so it is for you to ask questions so you know what to expect. You need this information to collect, to ensure that it is fully prepared and perform the best during the interview.

, 4. Lack signal its How you answer "Introduction Tell me - you " can make or break the interview. This issue is technically like to ask why you are qualified for the job and for society as a party of the interviewer. Use your research to meet the top two to four tracks with the job requirements. Also, why are you particularly on the role and the company. This is just an introduction. Keep your answer about a minute to not overwhelm the interviewer.

.. 5 The rejection of the words Insider While looking for the company that can - be heard as "micro" or "Toxic". You jump to any conclusions. Instead, use this information to formulate the questions you ask during the interview, such as "Tell me one of your best employees and the way it has supported their development?"

6. Do not Know your salary range. Wait -You asking an employer, as you did in your last job and how much you want to work, you do apply. These are two different issues and help the company to assess whether it fits in your budget and what is its value. Declare too many or too low, you can eliminate prematurely. To avoid this, use calculator content and contacts in the industry to assess what the company has to offer. You can even ask what the company has factored in for the role, rather than providing its response. If your last wage and salary You can choose to specify a salary range in accordance with the search results. However, if your last provided content is not close to what the company offers, you move better to be content until later in the week, if you have a better understanding of the requirements of the labor response.

7. Put not address the lack of skills. It is unlikely that you have everything the company wants. Prepare an explanation as to how to speed up in the fields, to stand where they briefly. For example, if you have no experience with the special software, you should at least know what it does. In a conversation with someone who uses the software and if the software is similar to what was used before, how difficult it is to control, and where you get the workout. For questions their software skills, consider how you plan to reach the speed of the software, it does not exist. The same logic applies to any skill or experience missing. Talk someone who knows, and build an answer as to close the gap. If the interviewer does not not put in place, it can address the skills gap anyway solution. You do not want to leave the problems you eliminate unanswered.

3 things that should probably never speak to a recruiter

By Leah Arnold Smeets

Recruiters have a unique position in the world of investments. In a word, they must build relationships with employers and candidates, then play matchmaker for this a win-win for all to be. Part of being a recruiter is that you teach (the applicant) to know and understand what you and the best place you have to offer is right for you. However, be careful not to make the mistake to make is that this "Know" talks, which is you and the recruiter BFFs - because if the relationship taking a turn for the worse. This is what you need to know.

There is a fine line to be between them and be a little too open and honest with one advertisers. Remember that the recruiter is on your side, but you should always maintain a level of professionalism in their interactions. To avoid unknowingly that cross the thin line, here are three things you should never say in your communication with a recruiter.

1. Slang - words

As tempting as it is also a "LOL" or "OMG" to reach the recruiter may be, do not do it in your messenger conversations, at least initially. The use of words or phrases dealing, you run the risk of being unprofessional and stupid - which, I checked the last time, are not qualities employers look for in candidates.

2. Profanity

Ladies and gentlemen, should be clear. However, I understand that there is always the few questionable candidates have the rest of us and occasionally fall F-bomb to ruin here and there, because it is not a big problem. Suffice it to say that it is never appropriate to use bad words when talking to a recruiter. End of the story.

3. Appropriate Greetings / Greetings

If they be opened through e-mail communication, always professional greetings and salutations and close correspondence. In other words, do not use "Hey, [name of the recruiter]!" as a greeting or "Love" as a stop sign. Instead it with "Dear Mr / Mrs" conventional "Sincerely" to your emails.

The relationship between the user and an advertiser is a two way street and must remain professional at all times. Think of your conversation with a recruiter as a precursor of the interview with a prospective employer. If you have any questions about what should or should not say, just replace the recruiter with the employer in your mind and you should have your answer.

3 Bosses Bad Everyone at some point in their careers

From Ana Holub

It's just a matter of time before you get a bad boss. You could make your dream job with your dream employer have but a bad manager can make the door approaches. If this relationship starts to break down, it can not only between you lead to inconsistencies and your boss, but with his team. Instead fear of destruction and chaos, here are ways to combat bad bosses, which are inevitable in his career. (Unfortunately).

1. Micro Manager

A boss on the shoulder looks a little cliché, but the metaphor is true in the workplace. If your boss can not be left alone to manage a project, or unreliable a meeting to run it, even if it was obviously "put in charge" of one has, it's not a good sign. There may be ways out of this intolerable, however, and they include all their skill - communication .

• Talk to your boss and see how they prefer to communicate and manage projects. Perhaps, if you can update on their activities, they will retreat. On the other hand they could be in position to respond to previous experience with someone who dropped the ball. Or maybe a standard procedure for new employees and that will change over time. Is useful to know in all cases.
• Place where you want your goals (short and long term) for their position. To see if there is a consensus between you two different methods that could be used to achieve these objectives.
• Plans interviews. See if you can agree which information can be transferred between two during the regular updates, and when meetings or personal e-mail messages is desired.

2. The head of Spirit

If the manager to take the opposite role, can be used as indifferent to you or the rest of your staff, you feel like you have absolutely no boss. What remains helpless and without direction of the race, to beat a go to you when times are tough, and no lawyer in relation to long-term development within the company.
What we want is, do not do a bad smell in the boss's boss or other colleagues to increase (although they feel the bite). It is likely and things to exist that go behind the scenes with her boss and you have to concentrate on your own career .

• Not necessarily you can get your boss to start with the magic care or attention to you, and that's a shame, but in the meantime, you can look elsewhere for leadership. Try to find a mentor for advice, and they might, to avoid this situation in the situation.
• Non stop working as hard as possible. Sooner or later, most likely your boss could be on the way. Perhaps they checked their work because they know that something is afoot. If you show he's as intelligent able, you could find yourself in a new location soon.
• If you feel that the change does not come, then you can make some tracks and start looking for a new job.

3. The Schoolyard Bully

One might think that if you are out of high school, it is possible to prevent the attacker in his life, but to be present with safety at work. It could gross, abusive, subtle, or a number of forms of shock, which can make your life difficult. This happens so often (unfortunately) there are a number of studies and experts weigh how to deal with the situation:

• There are many people who have a lot to say , deal like with bats, and does not mean much to confront, not curl, and is not HR. At the same time, all in the fact of conflicting advice talk, you say to your boss and staff to resolve the situation. Much depends on the situation you are.
• Almost all sources on the subject says that document abuse, keep a diary of work, a very good idea. You can see a pattern emerge with intimidation (perhaps it is a response to poor interaction they have with a superior, for example). More importantly, it will cover its own tail when things get weird.
• You may need to get out of this bad situation. If bullying is simply not go, you could be facing personal physical effects , which may be for you really bad (high blood pressure, insomnia, etc.). to find a new job, might be the best thing you can do for yourself.

8 things you should know if your job search skills are rusty

With the green Alison

If you prepare for a job search, but has not removed his resume a lot in the past decade, ready - to some changes. The job search has itself changed in some important respects in the past 10 years, both in terms of what the experience is like for candidates and strategies that are effective and have lost favor.

Here are eight of the most important changes you should be prepared when your skills are rusty professional hunting.

1. Recruitment often takes longer than normal. If you are used to companies to place an ad, interview candidates and a vacation all in the space of, say, to make a month, you could be in shock. Most companies take to rent months. Some companies still moving fast, but do not be surprised if you hear from companies month after the first round shall take, or if they spend weeks back before heard after an interview.

2. You may be asked to interview several times in the past, add many employers additional steps in setting -. Telephone interviews before they personally with a wide range of researchers, take complete several interviews, including colleagues and managers are different levels to requests for contributions, the assessment of skills and other functions.

3. Almost all applications must be submitted online When the last time hunting job, getting a job -. Deals in the newspaper looking through your resume and on vellum, they know that the times have changed. Today the vast majority of jobs is to apply online, often refusing to accept paper, receives ever again. This may be more efficient (and will save money on postage definitely), but also the struggle with the stubborn electronic systems can mean not with ease of candidates in mind.

4. You may be asked to reveal an uncomfortable amount of information to get your application for review online -. Need applications usually candidates to their share previous salaries , remuneration and social security numbers, often refuses to accept it applications that do not contain that information. And this is all before they had the chance to talk to a human.

5. At the same time the process has become more intense, but has also become less personal. With companies looking for candidates much time and energy to invest in addition to process more involved, candidates are surprisingly often treats them impersonal. You can consult with a company, maybe even more than once, and then never heard back with a final decision by them. It is increasingly common for companies not interfere releases origin or even react direct requests from candidates for an update of the situation of the recruitment process.

6. You may be asked to take a first video selection. Some companies ask candidates to make a first court to answer questions, pre-recorded video before to move it an interview with a live person. This can be frustrating for the candidate, because it means time in a "interview" to invest, without asking their own questions in a position or an idea of the culture of work or business.

7. CV conventions have changed. The old CV is not quite 10 years ago, updated with his latest work, and accept that it is good to go. Modern CV dropped at the top of the page the old lens, "References on request" once all properly communicated to and the rigid rule that applies only to one side. They are still limited to one side, if you, but if two sides are a recent graduate in order.

Display 8. The old advice about your application control applies endurance. If you said, remember to call your application to check after you sent or handed over from one company and ask to speak personally to the hiring manager, remove the strategies of modern textbook of job Search. -C These days, directors of human resources employed hindered by aggressive monitoring . And stop by can in person to point out that it is the way modern office work out of touch.

During a vacation should be fun and relaxing, find many professionals that stress from work projects and do not try to catch it's worth going. Many even choose not to take a complete rest to avoid additional stress. If you want to get out of the cold this spring, but is not sure how to plan to avoid stress, before and after these tips can help.

1. Make -You before and after the checklists. Three weeks before the holiday, a list of things that need to be fulfilled before departure, dates and the remaining elements of the action that must be filled. This could be ensured that the remaining tasks are completed, important files are updated when they are delegated with customers and work before leaving. Then create a list of things you should do when you return from vacation .

They are always in work mode at this time, and will be easier to remember what you need to do now, and not when it comes from the vacation mode.

2. Trust your colleagues. If you decide to have to delegate work, while you are away to ensure the smooth running of things in his absence, have a responsible colleague. If you have any ideas about who should handle what, ask your boss for suggestions that could remain on the ongoing projects, while you are away. Once you have decided to determine how much explanation is needed and how long it will take. Explain and show them what to do. If necessary, write a simple check list for them. Make sure that they have contact you to care in an emergency, but they rely on the work. You can ask to send a summary report when you return from vacation, so you know where the ends to tie. Be sure to send a thank you note when you return from vacation, to show them that you appreciate their work.

3. Tidy up your workspace. Take to clean up 15 to 20 minutes and organize your space of work before leaving on vacation on. This includes getting rid of the coffee cups, food and old or research notes. Place pins on it and dust on his desk, lamp and everything else, which is often used. You can even set a new notebook and Post-it for when you return. Your post-vacation-I will thank you when you return from vacation to a clean workplace.

4. Decide whether you are going to work on vacation. Before leaving on vacation, speak to your family or important to work spend the holiday on the other amount of time.

Ask your colleagues to identify your emails to see if something has a high priority, while you are out of town. You can do this to your team members in a general e-mail. Remember - your dates, you will be out of the office, we - to know if everything in the work on the holiday .

5. Create an automatic e - mail if you feel it personally be myself useful it would prefer not to because creating this e -. The messages are sent to people who do not want to. Or choose the information I am subscribed newsletters, and I only receive additional emails in response. I asked my assistant to check my emails, while his place to drive. If not set, a, be aware that you should not give all the details of your trip. And in most cases is not the professional way to handle. Simply write the date out of office you is enough. Attempting to enter the date by one day or two to extend some leeway, followed. Thus, for example, if you are new to the office on March 20, saying something like: "I e-mail from 22 March to respond" This gives you time to get a little back to work and the workflow, without the pressure by all who want to hear from you, also if you decide to offer to them. e - mails vacation that will relieve the pressure, so no one will be waiting to hear from you immediately.

The three occupations with the worst job security:

1. Actor . Unemployment rate: 26.1 percent.

Unemployment rates are high for the players, because there are many more people who want those jobs that no jobs available. This should not change in the short term, so that people would do well to work account for an option of professional backup so that if employment in this highly competitive field is tracked.

2. Building AIDS . Unemployment rate: 22.3 percent.

This profession requires little in the way of training and technical training, but the pay is very low. In addition, changes in the industry have allowed employers cautious about more people than necessary adjustment, which means that there are not enough jobs for everyone. People on the scope of employment in the construction industry could be the last to see a real recovery in their area.

3. telemarketing . Unemployment rate: 22.1 percent.

What is the best resume format for you?

By Marc Yeager

Not all applications are equal - and should not be. There are several formats available, which are accepted by intermediaries. Consider your professional history before deciding which one to use. Use the guide below - below to determine whether you are using the right kind of resume of your background and career goals.

chronological format. The traditional chronological resume presents employment history from the perspective of time. This is to use the format, if you have a history of consistent use with no gaps, and try to get a similar job for which he is now. You can not go wrong with a chronological resume, since it is the most common and widely accepted.

If you have a short time if you went one parent at home or college, the CV contained instead of leaving a gap. Holes mean questions, and if the questions are not answered on the paper, it is unlikely that the recruiter time to call for an interview to find out why it was not working for a certain period is taken. If you held a lot of jobs for a short time and are concerned about the perception, you can consider having a short and diplomatic explanation about why you left each company.

Function format. If you have a history of minimal work, gaps in terms of employment and different types of jobs often jumped to, this could be the right design for you. It also works well for a career change. The functional format is set to demonstrate their skills through their achievements. if you used the skills of customer service in a number of jobs, it can be used as one of their credentials, for example. Entitled include balls that connect to this ability in terms of its main achievements. It is important not to stereotype - to use phrases in their bullets, because must demonstrate their intention as competition instead of saying, was displayed.

It should also include a section of work experience or work are to be called their jobs, job, location and dates. However, balls with his performances are part of each degree above instead of below each job.

combined format. The combined format, for those who want a career change, especially in useful be senior positions in the race's history . As the name suggests, it is a mixture of functional and chronological blade life. With this format, you can use their skills to translate into the language of the new job or career. You want to attract the attention of the recruiter about your relevant to the task in hand skills.

Then abilities and achievements, as with the CV-functional, which should include a part of the experience, the basic information for the current and previous work in lists. With this format, you can also include bullet points under each position that reflects the benefits that did not correspond to a specific category of previous skills. Even if you are an older person, you should always avoid even any information. Use to keep only the essential facts, concise and easy to read.

visual summaries. Resumes nontraditional will become popular recently. These types of CV with graphics and other media to provide information on the job seeker available. Although this is one way to stand out from the crowd of applicants, many companies still want to see a traditional resume. but probably not by a lawyer - A summary of the history can make sense for someone in a creative field such as advertising, media and communications. Worth looking for a company's culture before you submit your resume, and it is always a good idea to take a more traditional version.

Whatever format you choose, you should include your name and how to contact you. Education is another must. For more information, such as professional attitude, volunteering, languages and technical expertise should be included if they are suitable for the job that you are applying. This information can also be useful if you have your resume completely as if you are an entry-level candidate.

In all cases, you should consult with a brief summary of the race at the top into consideration. This should be limited to a few lines that tell the recruiters that (and possibly preferred) satisfies requirements. The way to do this is to write down how to respond to the most essential information identification, ranked first rule in a job description .

Choosing the right size is important because your resume is your chance to get a foot in the door. The traditional format could be hurt, rather than help. If the reader can not understand why you are applying for a job in retail after 10 years in accounting, he will not take the time to find out for you why. Make sure that it is clear in your resume that you are a good fit, which require their abilities before highlighting instead buried the performance of each contract.

Sabotage 2 sentences present your CV

By Chrissy Scivicque

If you are looking for an easy way to make sure you your resume is up, look no further. A quick analysis of the following two sentences will tell you everything you need to know.

But before we get there, we will quickly agree on a key point: A resume is not what you can do, what to do or what to do when his job title. This is what you have done - concrete examples of their professional achievements.

Most charge of the specific employment information described and provide a list of three to five bullet statements for each position. These balls are the very substance of the document. They tell people what they did, how he did it and had the effect of their actions. Unfortunately, I see a lot of bad practices in this area.

Both are key phrases might work indicators under your CV against you. When I see these rates, I think, a resume to be on the basis of two things: a nondescript reformulation of a job description or a generic list of capabilities that may or may not possess the writer.

In both cases, these rates are warnings that the review should be necessary. Check out and check your resume. If necessary, take the time to revise your bullets.

1. "head ..." This sentence is a neon sign that the reader that the list and no success tells. For example, consider this CV ball. "Responsible for conducting monthly checks of stocks"

When you read this bullet point, some recruiters or hiring managers would be delighted. In fact, it could result in scratching their heads. They were responsible, but really?

Instead of focusing on the task, focus, why not, as has been done to this task in a special way and realized something special for the organization?

Perhaps his investigations revealed inaccuracies in systems for which then able improvements in monitoring were recommended. Perhaps you have identified a type of fraud or acknowledged a problem with the purchase of excess.

It is also possible that you experience no abnormality, and the best thing is to do your complete file in a timely and meticulous attention to detail show. It runs fine. The included. simply reword the sentence and begin a strong action verb.

2. "capacity ..." This phrase suggests that you can do something, but do not say you have to do. This is a general statement that a skill points but offers no concrete evidence. For example, consider the following bullet points CV. "The ability to build consensus and collaborative working environments"

It sounds great, but is essentially meaningless. As the person reading the summary, that this is true? Not so. You ask the reader to jump and trust straight.

Instead, why not take a certain time to articulate when you hit a winning consensus? Or name a project in which they have successfully cooperated with a team. Better yet, see if you can identify a particular result that came out of this experience - something that a positive impact on the organization in some way. start reword for them with a verb action and provides strong evidence of the ability have to achieve.

If you can not give a concrete example, which has been used successfully is ability not something that belongs on your resume States to bullets.

Remember - that in the review of a resume should the vast majority of the time really Vignette Pop, these statements are issued do. Time and effort is required, but the payoff is worth it. Remove these two sentences, and you are one step closer.

How to recognize the warning signs of a serious conflict in the workplace

By Indigo Triplett

One of the most difficult problems for people with conflict management is both personally have to do professionally. Unfortunately, a company that owns and operates, the conflict is part of the course. They are to deal with contracts derailed, employees who have gone from the reservation, and can take sellers advantage of you if you are not careful.

All of this means that in any case to increase your blood pressure, but for someone who has a mental health problem, the impact seems to get worse for. What is interesting about the owners, who have a mental health problem they will often find their way and are characterized by what they have talent. Often this does not mean a conflict if not a lawyer or a person whose job is to fight, fight or face. But basically a typical entrepreneur who has a mental health problem, is more concerned about the work in hand over with questions.

However, conflict management is not an option as an entrepreneur. I have just seen people do not respond to e-mails, letters, or people hoping that things work over time, but no response is indeed an answer for conflict management. Often professionals with a mental health will choose to ignore the problem, not as a way to be difficult, but in an attempt to control their own behavior and reactions in conflict. If anyone knows that are stirred by the conflict that you say or do to make things that create more problems and avoid the problem, it seems to be an option. have a professional with a mental illness are trying to avoid a problem to do Another situation could be that participation in the conflict could trigger anxiety or depression, so,.

There are five general ways professionals with conflict deal that can work in your best interest or not. Professionals compete, cooperation, avoid compromise or a conflict situation in welcome. I think more often, to avoid situations professionals to make them feel uncomfortable. But the unfortunate thing is that some people are not even aware that they are facing conflicts, which makes it difficult for effectively treat. What could be solved easily degenerate if a professional with a mental illness is not known what causes conflicts. Here six indicators are visible when conflict is brewing:

• You can not agree on a particular topic or subject in which to take action. When this happens, you really need to understand and realize what is the real question. This requires asking questions, although it may seem that you are not clear or informed. By taking this step to react closer to a resolution, if you are able, what is really the problem.
• You have to take reservations about a subject or action. Some psychological problems contribute effectively with them a high level of penetration. Learn to listen to your intuition, if you have concerns. What often makes a successful entrepreneur is the ability to follow their insights and instincts. If you have questions, stop and explore what you think is happening, and then respond.
• It is not to support the current practice or decisions or actions. When he met with resentment and does not mind, then smolders that and becomes something more than I wanted to be there. Here you can see the behavior that manifested the feeling of resentment. It is important that what you feel is too soft against the conflict.
• People see themselves as threatened. If someone feels they have to give up something of value for them there are conflicts.

7 Common Characteristics of unproductive employees

By Adam Heitzman

When it comes to a company executive, you may think, "unproductive" in three different ways. First, an employee can be as outgoing and bubbly in the office, which is actually the fact that he / she has never really forgotten productive . Second, you can see that the work of an employee to disappear or decrease and recognize begins that the employee has become unproductive. Or finally, and the employee may simply be useless, and everyone knows it.

be counterproductive but in all three cases, the characteristics of a person are the same. How they got there or why it might be a different story, but as an employer all starts with the ability to recognize some of these features. If you realize that an employee is unproductive, it is the first step to make changes.

Consider some of these features and options can be found below:

complaint

No matter why a person complains or that he / she complains (or so), complaints show often that a person does not want to work to make a change. It is a waste of time, and it is almost always easier to complain than productive. As John Brandon in said final section , "The really productive people do not emphasize the problem. Just do the work."

apologize

Similarly complain excuses is not the way to be productive. One thing is that when things are not done, because other things priority, but if something is not done because of an unfair sorry, there is a problem with the staff. Start paying attention and see if it seems to be an excuse for everything. One or two is sometimes fine, but an apology can quickly out of hand.

postpone

This can go right, along with an apology. Most of the time an employee is something out, because to put an apology, but sometimes you will find that he / she act as if you can wait a task, and ignored, as if it is "not much." Again, while this may be acceptable in small doses when the habit, which has a problem.

All this led by the head

This can happen for two reasons: either the employee expects the boss to work or delegate easily to someone else (usually because excuses that the employee) or an employee feels as if he / she can be independent and the Things happen. In both cases, an employee will not be productive. Part of the productivity is able to address the problems at hand and to be creative and work hard they want to solve and really solve. to get the reaction of the person Assistance pattern to this point and thus harms productivity.

Just take care to get loans

This is a classic sign that someone is not really up to the task; To ensure only to be productive when hard / You get your credit in the long run. To be truly productive, it must be creative and innovative in their role - do exactly what you said, and then his work will stop not always effective with your time. Even more than being unproductive, is a feature that really shows when an employee is not motivated, which leads us to the next point.

There is no motivation or drive

You can usually tell if someone does not have the motivation or run a business, when all things mentioned above - to make excuses, procrastinate, complain angrily always the boss, etc. All these feelings combined with a lethargic attitude contribute to not be productive. Why should an employee be productive if you do not care about the company and that the productivity can happen? Finally, we must work to be productive.
In some cases there is a lack of motivation and productivity, because employees was wrong to begin setting.

Slipping and improve personal brand

This is what usually happens when people are happy in their work. Maybe do what they say and not to excuse or complain, and maybe even sometimes to solve the problem and to do things, but if it is your personal brand and slide improve working routine and productivity. is part of being productive, learning new skills and pride of an online brand (even if it is only to help the company). This shows the independence and shows motivation. Without this, the productivity gap.

Takeaway

As you can see, many of the above characteristics are complementary and move. It looks almost like a domino effect, so probably go more than three or four functions in the list an unproductive employees to see. The best thing you can do as an employer is to be able to find these properties and to recognize and then take steps to re-staff to motivate .

"That is, the running for the biggest job in the world, really, the most important work," Fallon said, before a clipboard recording and ask Trump about your strengths and weaknesses.

It's true. The presidential candidates are essentially the interviews too much work, while their constituents for human resource managers and researchers are used. "We have this great ongoing research to our president," said Cheryl Hyatt, CEO and Partner of Hyatt-Fennell, a company executive search based in Pennsylvania. "And the American people, and voters play the role of the search committee."

Fight with views of the candidates for the presidency, job seekers have to interview a front row seat for a presentation, networking and self branding. The candidate, after all, do many good things - and some bad things. This is what job seekers can learn to follow the presidential race in 2016th

The presidential candidates know the power of a single-line program - and it should. practical answers aloud so you can speak clearly and distinctly, affected to sound while. Stories tell to illustrate your credentials, and your goal is polished look without a script come from.

Every time you will be offered a new job, it is an opportunity to perfect his technique wage negotiations to seek and higher compensation. That is, it can be a way for job-hopping be your ability to attract or affect wealthy.

Here are three traps to avoid:

1. The balance of your (k) 's 401 could suffer

If an offer under consideration - to leave and behind a job - it is important to look beyond the pay gap. Other benefits, such as 401 (k) corresponding options, and procurement policy will have a significant impact on your finances over time. Many companies allow you to start a 401 (k) a review after a certain period of employment. This means that when you jump from job to job or so each year, saving difficulties for retirement this time will have.

If you are in your 20 years can think that you, so that compound interest to work not about retirement yet, but it really is to get a good idea registration as soon as possible its magic.

While in the office of a state senator working, sometimes felt Alice Fisher misplaced. "I have worked with people who had less than my children," said Fisher, 69th

As older workers , she was able to hold her own, but she still felt sometimes like the mother of the office and heard his share of the unconscious statements on grounds of age, Fisher, who said the radical movement age a founded national group studied age discrimination, to educate and address.

The comments on his age does not indicate the intention not to hurt him, but made him feel as if his colleagues thought about how slowly out of touch or. "I might have been slower to use new technologies, but always done," he said.

Fisher is not the only workers to generational differences in the workplace. As more employees delay the pensions offices and enters many barriers between experienced workers and young people, it is becoming increasingly important, sensitive to interact across the aisle generations with colleagues. While age discrimination in employment preventing law discrimination of workers against employees or applicants more than 40 years due to the number of candles on the birthday cake, are legally a few strokes related to age - and can erode trust, power and morality, but.

"I think the language is powerful," says Tracey Gendron, assistant professor in the Department of Gerontology at the University of Virginia Commonwealth "do these words really a big difference you ,. do."

Therefore calls before loving his ex "granddaddy" Mentor or employee for many years to say that surprisingly easy it is to learn new computer programs. Here are four ageist unconsciously sets Nix vocabulary.

1. "You're overqualified." This statement, lobed usually for job seekers, "almost always is the code" You're too old, "said Joanna Lahey, Associate Professor at the University A & M of Texas and an expert on discrimination due to the age and the relationship between the results of the age and the labor market. Experienced candidates can also "never take wage" or hear "a revolving door here", if they are going to be considered for a job considered, Fisher said.

While it is illegal to not hire someone who generally accepted due to their age, this oral solution is.

"To say that someone is overqualified than ageist no court," Lahey said. But the problem with this statement is that there are candidates the ability to solve the problem and show how they were able to use Lahey, he said. "People do not have the opportunity."

2. "Do not worry, you are not required to this class of computers - to take over education." Employees should avoid the assumption that older workers are technological dinosaurs that can not learn new skills.

should be experienced staff "to change adverse, they will not take on new technologies," says Jessica Kriegel, author of "Unjust Labels: How can you benefit your workplace trenches generations clichés." "But what is often older workers to implement changes in technology."

If administrators do not available education for older workers, which may affect their professional qualifications. "If you are not offered training, their skills begin to deteriorate and is a self - fulfilling prophecy," says Lahey.

3. "When are - you retire?" This is one of the least phrases Fisher said - her. "This is something that comes and baked just inside," says Fisher.

Employees of a life can not want to give up because they find rewarding career or can not afford to stop working. You do not know - do not assume. Moreover, the alleged excuses employers not to prioritize development workers more years at work and assume that the employee investment regions in the company and its future.

4. "baby - boomers are ..." When it comes to a group of generations, young and old, Kriegel recommends away generations labels to paint any age group in any way. "There is an association with the word" boom "that are out of touch, Tech-adverse, whatever," he said.
It is the same problem with labels for young professionals, also. For example, employees can see the millennium as justified or easily angered.

"The label itself is not bad. It's the way we use," he said.

And it is something to consider, Gendron said, it is that mistreat older workers to turn against their younger counterparts. If the employees in the labor market not experienced appreciate working, Gendron said: "We are very discriminating in our own future."
