Need A Job? Write A Good Resume

Resume Writing Tips Following the Cashflow Quadrant, most of us are in the upper left corner - Employed. This is the easiest way to earn money - though, the least way to make more money. However, getting employment these days also proved to be challenging. Finishing a college degree these days doesn’t guarantee employment - more and more graduates (especially in the Philippines) end up unemployed each year.

With so many people looking for work as against available suitable jobs - one has to excel in all aspects of job-hunting requirements, and that include a good knowledge on how to write a good resume.

So, if you are looking for a job - make sure you write a good resume. Here are some Tips in Writing a Good Resume.

1. Understand what is a “resume”.

A Resume is a self-promotional document that presents you in the best possible light, for the purpose of getting invited to a job interview. It’s not an official personnel document. It’s not a job application. It’s not a “career obituary”! And it’s not a confessional.

2. What should the resume content be about?

It’s not just about past jobs! It’s about YOU, and how you performed and what you accomplished in those past jobs - especially those accomplishments that are most relevant to the work you want to do next. A good resume predicts how you might perform in that desired future job.

3. What’s the fastest way to improve a resume?

Remove everything that starts with “responsibilities included” and replace it with on-the-job accomplishments.

How to succesfully pass a job interview

It is job hunting season for most new Filipino college graduates. And with so many graduates as against available jobs (most notably, matched jobs), it is quite tough competition out there.

A job interview, apart from crafting a good-looking resume, is probably one of the most difficult challenges a job seeker faces during the job application process, regardless whether one is a fresh graduate or a job ‘hopper’ for sometime. I must admit that I do enjoy this part, but there’s no secret formula than just being yourself (don’t pretend to be someone else, worse an expert) and just great amount of self-confidence. With some mix of humility and straightforwardness, you are ready to face any job interview challenge, even the much dreaded panel interviews.

How to get syndicated with BlogRush and get traffic

Buzz or Not? I got a dozen of draft posts - but after a day from my HongKong travel, I am still in vacation mode and still don’t have the energy to publish some new posts. I received about 200 emails from friends and associates as well as from other fellow bloggers so half a day was easily lost to reading those.

And there I was looking at my blog for a while, wondering how I could improve its layout. Yeah, I know I need to get a professionally designed, exclusive Bloggista.com theme and start writing great contents - the latter’s sort of easier said than done. Then my eyes were fixed on BlogRush widget which has been occupying that spot for a while. Honestly, I don’t know much if this widget helped me in generating those precious traffic to my blog. Statistics data from BlogRush site don’t give me so much encouragements at all. For over a 1000 syndication of one post, only 3 clicks were made.
