Interview Secret From The Apprentice (Dec 2010)

Interview Secret From The Apprentice (Dec 2010) I just watched the finale of The Apprentice, one of my guilty pleasures. I LOVE to learn everyone on the show about business, hustle, creativity, teamwork, etc. This season I was surprised that the person I thought would become the next Apprentice actually lost. I like Brandy, but I thought Clint was a stronger leader. Anyway, Brandy did something that was consistent with her brand and personality.  In her final words, before the decision was revealed, Brandy said something that blew me away.  When I was listening I thought no way The Donald is going to stand for that insubordination! In minute 38 minute she said the following lines (I am leaving some of it out): I could maybe teach you something along the way I would love the chance to work along .. the next generation of the Trump brand You are an amazing individual but maybe its time to learn from somebody that is more the next generation of the Trump name Whoa! Trumps ego is perceived to be bigger than his brand (and that is Texas Big!) I thought it was really, really gutsy of Brandy to even go there! It wasnt SAFE (whereas Clint stayed with SAFE, talking about all of the certifications and degrees and credentials he has accumulated). But guess what Donald Trump isnt about safe, or suckups, hes about the person who will say what needs to be said, and do what needs to be done. Not that Clint wouldnt do it, but Brandy proved it in her last few seconds It was gutsy, and it was the right decision. Maybe if it was someone other than Donald Trump it wouldnt have been the right decision, but it was for her.  Whether she gauged that, and risked it on a guess, or she was just being true to herself, she said it. And she won. Are you gutsy enough to do what needs to be done, and say what needs to be said?  Or do you just try to fit into the role and not rock the boat?

The 5 Main Reasons Why People Resist Career Changes - Classy Career Girl

The 5 Main Reasons Why People Resist Career Changes A  recent Gallup poll revealed only one-third of people actually felt engaged at work.  So what are the most common barriers that stop people from taking a bold leap into the unknown and finding the perfect career they’ll love waking up to every morning? The 5 Main Reasons Why People Resist Career Changes 1. Money Maintaining a steady salary and hanging on to workplace benefits is the reason I hear people most often cite when choosing to stay in a job they dislike. Everyone has bills to pay, families to feed, or loans to pay.   Letting go of your income is difficult when you’ve grown accustomed to a certain lifestyle. If you’re already unhappy with your job, the last thing you need on top of that is financial stress. From personal experience, when I’ve considered career changes, one of the first things I think about is the financial impact of that decision on my life and family. 2. Risk I often hear people say that they know they don’t like their current job, but they’re not sure what they would enjoy doing instead. You can start to accept the idea your current situation is as good as it gets. You can start to believe there may not be anything out there that’s better. Fear of the unknown can be incredibly paralyzing, even if you know you don’t like your current situation. I’ve been in situations myself where I knew I wasn’t happy, but I just wasn’t sure if I could find something better. I wasn’t even sure if the idea of being truly happy in a job was realistic, which kept me stationary that much longer. [RELATED: 4 Ways to Turn Panic Into Progress] 3.  Energy Figuring out what you want to do and finding another job can be a full-time job itself. When you’re already dealing with a job that overwhelms you, exhausts you, or depletes you mentally, mustering up the energy in the evenings and weekends to conduct a job search can feel impossible. Finding the energy or headspace to think about what you want to do instead is hard. Even if you know, finding the time or capacity to pursue other opportunities is a challenge, so you stay put instead. I’ve always found it incredibly difficult to find the time or energy at the end of a long day to be sending out cover letters or resumes on top of maintaining my full-time job. Career changes take a lot of energy. 4. Judgement Resigning from your job can be a deflating experience, but on top of that, dealing with the judgements of others can be hard when you’re already feeling emotionally fragile. What will people think? What will people say? Judgement can come from your peer group, family, friends, and of course, colleagues who seem perfectly happy with your company. No one wants to feel like a failure. No one wants others to think you couldn’t cut it. I remember resigning once from a job because I felt the culture of that company was a poor fit for me. After people heard my news, I faced a tremendous amount of disappointment from some colleagues whom I thought were my friends, and that can be hard to stomach. 5. Investment The power of investment is very strong. Letting go of something you’ve invested time, money, education, and effort into is not easy. The idea of walking away from a job that took an incredible amount of effort to secure can feel crazy. Investment has a way of keeping you in a situation that’s not right for you. I talk to so many people who say they can’t leave their jobs because they’ve “already come this far” and can’t give up now. The best example I can share from my own career was walking away from a job only weeks before I was about to get promoted. I felt like I had thrown away all I had invested to get there, which was very difficult to reconcile. Ultimately, getting clear on what exactly is keeping you in a job you dislike is the first step toward dealing with and overcoming that barrier. The good news is that you always have a choice. If what you could gain is more important to you than what you could maintain by staying, you really owe it to yourself to consider making the leap. Have you resisted career changes in the past?

Beauty Tips to Follow to Avoid an Interview Disaster

Beauty Tips to Follow to Avoid an Interview Disaster Applying for a new job is scary and exciting all at the same time, but when you get that phone call that you have been invited in for an interview â€" well that’s a whole other level of excitement and fear! Obviously, you will spend time preparing yourself on how to answer the questions, but did you know it’s just as important to present a professional image as far as how you look? We’ve put together a list of tips you can use that will help ensure you are interview ready, thereby allowing you to avoid any potential disasters. Put in the Prep Work Just as you prep yourself to answer questions about your job experience and goals it’s important to put prep work into how you will look on that day. It begins by using a high-quality skin care system, such as what you’d find with Makari products. By taking this step you’ll be getting your skin in top-notch shape before the interview arrives. You will look professional and polished, which is exactly the look you want to go for. Opt for Waterproof Cosmetics The last thing you want to deal with is smudged eyeliner, mascara that is halfway down your face and foundation that appears to be melting and running. All of this can be avoided by using waterproof cosmetics. The goal is to look well put together so as not to detract from your qualifications and reasons for being there. You want your experience to shine through and be the highlight of the interview, not be known as the girl whose makeup was a disaster. Go Light on the Makeup Speaking of makeup, an interview is not the place to be wearing your dolled up, evening look. This is a time for “fresh-faced beauty”. This means use a light hand when applying your makeup. You can also use neutral soft shades such as brown, taupe, champagne, pale peach and pink, and cream.  And  Less is more should definitely be the motto. Keep Hair Tidy Again the whole idea of less is more can be carried over into your hair. Opt for a style that is very clean, neat, and professional. Pulling it back so it’s not in your face or eyes is a great idea. It also prevents you from playing with your hair while answering questions, if you’re that type. Keep Nails Short and Well-Manicured If youre the type who likes long nails in bright colours, youll want to change it up for the interview. Keeping your nails neat, tidy, and neutral is a much more professional look. You could pick a pale neutral shade like pink or peach. These colours will match anything you decide to wear that day. A Little Bit of Work Can Lead to a Big Payoff In the end by following some simple beauty tips you’ll come across professional, well-prepared, and ready to take the job by the reigns. Keeping the focus on you and your talents is what it’s all about. Image credits: Main.  Hair.  

Should You Use Indents When Writing a Resume?

Should You Use Indents When Writing a Resume?So many questions about whether or not to use indents while writing a resume. The truth is that you will probably use them, if only as a style statement. However, it is always good to be consistent in your writing. Read on to learn the most important facts about the use of indents and your resume.Let's start with writing style. If you were to have an envelope with a self-indented ribbon attached to the top flap, it would certainly be frowned upon by other job seekers. However, a resume envelope that does not have any indentation whatsoever is accepted. In other words, it is a judgment call.Next, using indents is just as valid for personal information as it is for your professional experience. Whether it is for your cover letter or your resume, the best practice is to have them on all of your documents. After all, you want to look as professional as possible.Because of the obvious fact that you need to get your resume to the human resources department before you run out of time, using indents makes sense. They give your resume the impression of being more organized. You can also use them for emphasis.When you are writing a resume, it is better to have a certain amount of information in the first few pages. That way, you can include all of the necessary elements without feeling rushed. With a rigid format, you can make sure that you can cover all of the bases.You need to know what is required of you based on individual criteria. If you do not, you might be surprised by the problems that arise from the paperwork that you need to create. If you use indents, it is easier to ensure that all of the necessary information is included in the first few pages.Most employers will look at your cover letters before they look at your resumes. This is true whether you sent them as a packet with your resume or as a separate packet. Most applicants try to use as many professional looking resumes as possible in order to avoid having to write their own letters. Even though you have several other potential candidates to choose from, you can still make sure that they have received the same attention as you did.One of the easiest ways to find out whether or not to use indents in your resume is to think of the letters that you will be submitting with your resume. If you put in some effort into writing them well, you will be able to prove to them that you are worth the money that you will be spending.

Firefighter Eligibility Criteria PQAs and other Essentials

Firefighter Eligibility Criteria PQAs and other Essentials There are various Fire and Rescue services in the United Kingdom, but one thing they all have in common is that they all operate to the highest possible standards, and that they are respected by the residents of the UK. The Fire Service manages to do this, by only hiring candidates who adhere to the Firefighter Eligibility Criteria, and the PQAs.Working as a firefighter is a position that commands great respect, but this respect has to be earned. This is a job like no other, which requires the utmost bravery and commitment. Therefore, naturally, there are strict requirements on who can and can’t become a Firefighter. In this blog, we’ll give you the breakdown on all the Firefighter Eligibility Criteria.If you’re interested in finding out more about becoming a Firefighter, check out our excellent guide!  #section_1542201355{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Personal Qualities And Firefighter Eligibility CriteriaThe majority of the firefighter selection process is structured a round what are known as the Personal Qualities and Attributes (PQAs). This is a essential element to the Firefighter Eligibility Criteria, which you must study up on prior to application.When you make your application to join the fire service, you should be supplied with a copy of these important qualities. If you are not provided with them you can quite easily obtain a copy of them by searching for them on the internet, as they are freely available within the public domain.These important Firefighter Eligibility Criteria qualities form the basis of the role for an operational firefighter, and therefore it is imperative that you use them as a basis for your preparation. When you complete the firefighter application form, you should have a copy of the PQAs next to you. When you prepare for the interview, you should have a copy of the PQAs next to you. When researching the role of a firefighter you should have a copy of the PQAs next to you.You will be assessed in relation to the qual ities throughout the varying sections of the selection process, from the initial application form through to the interview. Therefore, it is essential that you understand what the PQAs involve, and all about the Firefighter Eligibility CriteriaThe Personal Qualities and Firefighter Eligibility Criteria essentially cover the following areas:Demonstrating a commitment to diversity and integrity;Being open to change within the Fire service;Demonstrating a level of confidence and resilience;Having an ability to work with other people;Being an effective communicator;Commitment to development;Having the ability to solve problems;Being aware of situations around you;Demonstrating a commitment to excellence.Because these qualities are so important to your preparation when applying to the Fire service, we need to take a further look at each of them individually. Read them carefully and ask yourself whether you would be capable of demonstrating the requirements of each quality:#section_359270 416{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Demonstrating a Commitment to Diversity and IntegrityThis means that you should be able to treat people fairly, both at work and within the community. Of course, having an awareness of your community is very important to the firefighter’s role. Whenyou deal with people, both at work and within the community that you are serving, you should always maintain an open approach and accept differences such as social background, age, ethnicity, gender, disability, sexual orientation, and physical appearance.When you join the Fire service you will be expected to uphold the relevant values, be honest, and be accountable for your own actions. Finally, if whilst at work you notice someone behaving in an unacceptable manner, then you should be prepared to challenge that behaviour if it is inconsistent with the values of the Fire service.#section_1118405395{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Being Open to Change Within the Fire serviceThe Fire service is an ever-changing organisation. As with any organisation that has a desire to continually improve, change is a must. So, before you apply to join the Fire service, it is important you understand this and want this. During your career as a firefighter there will be many different changes to working practices that you will need to embrace. As technology and safety procedures/ equipment improves, so will the need for working practices and procedures within the Fire service.When you join the Service, you will undoubtedly attend many incidents but there is also a preventative side to the job. You will need to be willing to participate in Community Fire Safety activities such as educating the public and schoolchildren. After all, their safe future is in your hands. Teach them well now, and they will hopefully be safe for their entire lives. This move from ‘reactive’ to ‘proactive’ is one of the biggest changes that the profession has gone through during the last 50 years.#sectio n_676674280{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px} #image_1321207038{width:100%}Demonstrating a Level of Confidence and ResilienceAs you can imagine, as a firefighter you will attend some tough incidents. These incidents will test your physical strength, your emotional stability, and your ability to remain calm when all around you is going wrong. When people are leaving burning buildings, you will be running in, using your skills and your equipment to save life and property. Therefore, with all of this in mind, you must be able to remain in control of your emotions during emergency incidents.You must be able to remember your training and procedures and concentrate on the task at hand, despite the pressure of the incident, and the panicking public around you. What would you do as a firefighter if things didn’t go to plan during an incident? Would you lose confidence in your abilities or would you knuckle down, get the job done and then learn from any mistakes afterwards?#section_765 142887{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Having an Ability to Work with Other PeopleOf course, firefighters have to work in teams. The size of the team will depend on a number of factors including the nature of the task in hand. However, as a rule of thumb they usually work in teams ranging from 2 to 20 people. Therefore, having an ability to work effectively as a member of a team is crucial to the role. In order for a team to work effectively and efficiently, the members of that team need to have a productive relationship. They don’t necessarily have to personally like each other, but they need to have a good, strong, working relationship. As a firefighter you will work with many different teams, including members of different services such as Police and Ambulance crews. As with other members of the emergency services, you will need to have an ability to reassure and calm members of the public.Working as part of a team also means there is a requirement for each individual to b e aware of the wider team goals. For example, you may be asked by your Watch Manager to give a Community Fire Safety talk to a group of school children at short notice. Would you be able to prepare in time, and would you have the skills required to deliver the presentation?Finally, when you are working in the community, you will need to present a positive image of the Fire service. Naturally, you will be proud to work as a firefighter and this must come across in your day-to-day work. The Fire service has an important and respected image to protect and it will be your job as a firefighter to uphold it.#section_1858081346{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Being an Effective CommunicatorAs a firefighter, you will be communicating with a wide variety of people on a daily basis, ranging from members of your team through to members of the public at emergency incidents. How you communicate to these distinct groups is important. For example, if you were giving a Community Fire Safety ta lk to a group of school children, then you would need to adapt your communication style to suit children instead of, for example, a group of mature students. Also, you must be able to communicate with small groups of people and also large groups.On occasions you will need to educate the public following incidents where a person has either lost their life or become injured as a result of a fire. Let us assume that there has been a fire in a house where the owner did not have a working smoke alarm. What do you think you would need to do as a firefighter following the incident?The right thing to do would be to visit the residents in the local neighbourhood to offer them fire safety advice, and to check that each household had a working smoke alarm fitted. When talking to these people you would need to be sensitive to the fact that a fire had occurred in their neighbourhood, and as a result they could be feeling frightened or vulnerable.At emergency incidents you will be required to sen d important messages over the radio, either to other members of your team or to the central control that deals with all vehicle movements and deployments. It is imperative that once you have sent a message you check to see that the other person has received it. Checking and confirming that messages have been received and understood is an integral part of a firefighter’s role.#section_1474470541{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Commitment to DevelopmentThis personal quality involves the firefighter proactively reviewing their own performance, mainly through seeking feedback from others. Once areas for improvement have been identified, it is then up to them to take steps and make the improvements happen.Alongside this, they will be expected to have a desire to learn from their colleagues, whether this is through official courses or training programmes, or more casually. In turn, firefighters are also expected to be ready and willing to share their own knowledge for the benefit o f their colleagues.#section_1755624837{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px} #image_1188638017{width:100%}Having the Ability to Solve ProblemsFirefighters are generally excellent problem solvers. They need to have a knack of fixing things using innovative and practical solutions. In other words, they can usually generate more than one solution to a problem and carry out their work in a logical and systematic manner, despite the pressures of an incident.As a firefighter you will need to be able to remember your training and procedures whilst using your skills to resolve problems quickly and competently. You will need to be safe at all times and work in accordance with health and safety procedures in order to minimise the risk to yourself, your work colleagues, and the general public.Relevant to this, during the selection process you will be assessed on your ability to work with numbers. The reason for this type of assessment is that you will be required to apply task procedures using addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication as an operational firefighter.#section_225760593{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Being Aware of Situations Around YouFirefighters must be able to work safely at all times, both at the fire station and also during operational incidents. During your training you will learn the concept of ‘risk assessment’. This is a relatively simple process that is designed to protect you and your work colleagues from the hazards that are around you whilst at work.You will need to keep checking your working environment for the dangers that are present and then take steps to minimise the risks. You will then need to inform the rest of your team about the dangers so that they are safe from harm.#section_1262222776{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Demonstrating a Commitment to ExcellenceThroughout your career as a firefighter, you will need to look for ways to improve the standards of your work and that of people around you. Being committ ed to delivering an excellent service is all part and parcel of the job. You will need to be comfortable with carrying out every day routine tasks, while understanding that they must be done competently in order to maintain high standards.Your approach to every working task will need to be professional, which will require you to maintain appropriate levels of fitness.Another constant commitment you will need is self-discipline. You will always be operating under specific discipline procedures, and will often be working unsupervised without being constantly checked by your supervisory manager.To sum up, you need to demonstrate a commitment to delivering an excellent service to the public, which of course will need to be done on many fronts.So, as you can see, the personal qualities that you will be required to demonstrate during the firefighter selection process are comprehensive, and can be studied and learnt! For certain, the PQAs will form the basis of your preparation.When comple ting the application form and preparing for the interview, make sure you have a copy of the PQAs and the Firefighter Eligibility Criteria next to you. You should be able to obtain a copy of the PQAs from the Fire service you are applying to join.#section_452424711{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px}Other Essential  Firefighter Eligibility Criteria  In addition to the firefighter PQAs, there will also be a number of other requirements that you will have to meet. These can vary, but the more common requirements include:Have a minimum age of 18;Have a good all-round fitness;Pass both written and practical tests;Be able to work in a No Smoking environment;Have the ability to meet specific eyesight standards;Pass the Fire service medical;Be willing to work the shift pattern appropriate to the organisation you are applying to join;Be prepared to be posted anywhere within the Fire service area you join;Have no unspent criminal convictions.NOTE â€" We strongly advise that you confirm the exact entry requirements with the Fire service you are applying to join, as these can vary.#section_343002453{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px} #image_1667967825{width:100%}#section_987565331{padding-top:30px;padding-bottom:30px} This entry was posted in Firefighter, Eligibility Criteria.
