Your Career And The Drug Test

The pre-employment drug test is often inevitable. But before you take it, there are few things you should take care of first. So when was the last time you interviewed? How did it go for you? My guess is that it went poorly for you and that is no slam on you personally its just that most people fear interviews and lose a lot of jobs as a result.

Your goal in this is to get the attention of the hiring manager, just as it is with resume writing. The method and format are a little different however. Your resume will cover all, or most of your professional career, and will be from one to two pages. Your cover letter will be a very brief page serving as an introduction to the resume. Cover letter writing style must be direct, to the point, and able to grab the attention of the reader quickly, with a goal of making the reader want to read the attached resume.

In terms of boosting one's career, the difference between the two methods of leadership communication is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug. Speeches/presentations primarily communicate information. Leadership talks, on the other hand, not only communicate information, they do more: They establish a deep, human emotional connection with the audience.

Well a lot of people have learned interviewing skills through trial and error. The more you do something the better you get at it (usually!). But who wants to learn like this...I mean there are few things that are more painful than getting a rejection letter. Also how fun are interviews in general? Basically most people want to avoid them entirely! Then, wouldn't it be great if you could learn what makes a successful interview from the eyes of the potential employer? Wouldn't it be nice to go into an interview with the mindset that you are evaluating them and not the other way around?

Experienced in quality assurance and quality control, MRP, ISO 9000, QS 9000, and Lean Manufacturing. Demonstrated results in saving significant money for employers through cost savings, inventory level reductions, and on-time supplier delivery.

Learning (and I 100% guarantee that you can learn this stuff) interviewing skills is profitable for anyone from the fresh graduate to the seasoned business man. It is also great for you life outside of work including parenting, dating, marriage--you name it! So don't wait any longer to get this valuable part of your success under your control!
