Discussion 46 Alamo: What Am I Missing?

WHAT AM I MISSING?
To succeed, one must be thorough in their goals. Being thorough is the highlight of our upcoming Applicant RoundUp Events. These events have been scheduled for the third Friday of June, July, and August. Everyone and anyone can participate. This event is to ensure that each subscriber has a complete, efficient and updated profile for employers to review. Too many of our subscribers still have incomplete profiles or have yet to upload professional photos or videos. These areas of the profile are considered very important because they are what sets our subscribers apart from all the rest.
To properly participate in one of the Applicant RoundUp Events, you will need to prepare as follows:
1. Upload an up-to-date resume with easy-to-read/short/bulleted phrases. The resume should have a Summary of Qualifications with short, bulleted phrases.
2. Take a professional photo of yourself and post it to your Profile Page. You may take this photo yourself and email it to us for approval or have the photo taken at the event. If you take the photo yourself, remember that it should be a photo of yourself without any additional people or props and it should be taken against a plain background.
3. Practice a one-minute or less speech discussing your qualifications (education, experience, skills) that an employer would find appealing as well as what you can offer the company, if hired. It is very important to keep this presentation positive and professional. This one-minute video presentation will also be posted in the Quality Assured Section of CampusJobXpress.com.
4. Please choose a job category from the list of jobs under job data base. If the job category that you need is not listed there, let us know by e-mail the category that you need

All of you who are interested in the Summer Applicant RoundUp should e-mail us at info@campusjobxpress.comonce the above three items have been completed.

All screened applicants will be presented to employers as candidates for interview.

Discussion 44 Alamo: What Is Your Work Ethic?

work′ eth`ic
n.

a belief in the moral benefit and importance of work and its inherent ability to strengthen character.
Work ethic? Do you have it?  You should always take pride in whatever type of work you do. Your work should reflect what you expect to get back from the company that you work for. If you are only giving half of your effort then you should reflect on if you are really happy to be there. If not then you should look for something you are passionate about. It’s not fair to you, your job, or the others that work with you when you only give 50% of your effort.  This is true whether you have a job or looking for work, because looking for work is your job.
Here are some questions to ask your self about when you are looking for the career that is right for you. You should get out something to write with and some paper (or in this case put into your response) :
  1. What is your relationship with the work that you have or wish to do?
  2. What are your  beliefs concerning what you should be giving and receiving from your work place?
  3. When you think of your job what are your feelings about the job that you do or want to do.
  4. Do you like your job?

 

Hoping everyone’s Mother’s Day weekend was amazing!
