Job Interview Tips – Body Language

March 9, 2014 by Julie Austin

Avoid fidgeting - Fidgeting might be a harmless habit unless you\'re in a job interview.

Are You a Job Hopper?

January 24, 2014 by Julie Austin

If you\'ve sent out tons of resumes and haven\'t heard back from any of them, maybe it\'s because they consider you a job hopper.

How Different Generations Conduct Job Searches

September 30, 2012 by Julie Austin

When a baby boomer friend was searching for a job, his elderly dad said \"Look in the newspaper classifieds\". Since I haven\'t picked up a newspaper in quite a while, I\'m not sure they even still have job listings there.

Job Search and Small Business

April 13, 2012 by Julie Austin

Small businesses of less than 500 employees are responsible for approximately 70% of all new jobs. In a recession they are also more likely to hire fewer employees, none at all, or to have to lay some of them off. But that shouldn't stop you from applying to those companies.
