Importance of First Impression

Have you ever heard some body telling that the first impression is the last impression? You must really have heard this somewhere or the other. In fact this is a very popular proverb. You must have been taught about this by your parents as well as teachers. They all would have suggested you to make sure that your first impression is good. If it will not be a good one then it is quiet sure that it will take a long time before you will be able to get your impression feel goo. You can just remember your first day in college or in any office. You should also remember what happened on that day and how it affected your future prospects. I must say that it will sound better in future if you have good first day impression. You are studying in some colleges or you are doing any job in any company, you will have to agree that your first impression come out to be the last impression.

I would like to list some of the reasons why the first impression is very important. They are as follows:

1.Most of the elders feel that the first time when they meet a new face is the best time to judge how good they are because everybody seems to be most careful the first time. Hence one can hope for the best performance the first time you meet them. You should keep this in mind. If you will not keep this in mind then you will definitely find yourself in a dilemma.

2.The elders do believe that it is the best time to decide that how much love we really love them because the first time we do not know that to whom we are going to meet. You must have watched in movies that how the elders decide who among the first time visitors are good and who are bad.

3.You must have participated in some reality shows. You must know that you can win these shows only if you earn lots of SMS. And the number of SMS which you will get depends upon your first impression in public. If you fail to impress them the first time. Then you will really suffer throughout the show. Some other reality shows like big brother of London allows you to make impression every next moment. But they are really a rare sight.

I must at last say that you will definitely find the first impression to be very important. If you are able to provide a good impression then its all for you but if you fail then you are really going to suffer.

Difference between a Web Designer and a SEO

Most of the people think that website designing and search engine optimization is the same thing. But you must know that these two are completely different things. As far as website designer is concerned it basically deals with designing a beautiful website. However as far as SEO is concerned it basically means online marketing. The SEO is the technique of improving the volume and quality of traffic so that more searcher visit the site and also the website should come at the top of the search engine list.

This is really something which requires some kind of optimization. SEO requires optimization in content and also optimization in HTML code so that the website comes first in the search engine search list. As far as web designing is concerned, if you are one of them then you will be just required to design the templates for the web page and also finally design the whole website so that it looks great. However at this level there is no provision that you have to take some step for optimization. This is really not the work of web designer. If you ask the same company to optimize your website then they will ask their SEO whom they hire to do the job. The web designers will have nothing to do with it.

The SEO take into consideration, that how search engine works and what the people are looking for. You will have some keywords which will related to the most common type of searches and also according to the type, your website is. You can use those keywords repeatedly in your contents and you will definitely soon find out that your website comes in the top of the search list.

You will have to keep in mind that what the people are really looking for. Accordingly you will have to change your content. You will see that more traffic will come to your website and you will definitely find yourself to be very popular within few days. But you really require a person who will do the optimization for you. He is called search engine optimization. You will definitely find it much better if you will go for the search engine optimization.

You should keep in mind that there are millions of websites and you will find that most of the people see only the first or second page of the search list. Hence if you will not o for search engine optimization then your website will never be visited by anybody. Yes advertisement will work but they are much more costly than SEO. You should really take advantage of SEO. However as far as website design is concerned it is too very important but is different from the SEO as I have explained you.

Employment Aptitude test

Employment is one of the process through which most of us gets the job. The recruiters are responsible for the recruitment and they do that by taking some test. On most of the occasion it is found that aptitude test is taken finalize the list of selected candidates. They really rely upon the aptitude test.

There are many reasons for taking aptitude test. Actually it is being thought that this is best way to judge some ones mental ability. You will definitely find it very interesting to note that most of the recruiters agree at one point that it is not really required to test the fresher at technical level. If he has good aptitude then he will always prove to be the best at work. They generally think that they need the fresh minds. All the other things can be taught to the candidate. Hence you will generally find that the fresher have to just give the aptitude test.

As far as aptitude test is concerned it basically comprises of quantitative test, verbal ability, non verbal ability, reasoning and comprehension. All the other things are included in these abilities. Sometimes the questions are made tough and sometimes the number of questions is increased. Both ways the question looks out to be tough. It is really a tough test. However if you will practice well then you will certainly able to crack it.

The highest marks achieved in such tests in normally 100%. However there are some papers in which it is hard to get even 6%. Just think about vocabulary and imagine that you have to crack every question. Do you feel that you will know the meaning of each and every question? It is really a tough ask. However with a good practice you can crack all the questions.

You can expect for brain twisters as far as aptitude test is concerned. The main objective is to find out the faces that are able to use their brain in a proper manner. It is really a tough ask to be so accurate. But the recruiters want faces want faces which are quiet close to this accuracy. It is quiet easy to fell in trap of the examiner but it is quiet tough to crack what he would have thought. Hence it is really nice to make sure that you work hard and prepare well for the test.

There might be many reasons for your requirement. Psychology is not an easy task to deal with. You will meet so many patients who are very hard to tackle.

Advice on Negotiating Salary

Salary negotiation is a very tough process. Most of us are busy in clearing interview and seldom want to speak on salary. We just want to make sure that our job is secured or not. We really waste. However I must say that salary negotiation is a very important point which is very important for our better future. I must say you should really question what salary you are getting. It is really the plan of every recruiter to hire you for the least amount.

They will keep this for the last part of your interview. However you will be asked for your view. Most of the people think that it is quiet good to agree on nay amount which the recruiter sets. But you should not be surprised to note that the recruiters take this act as a negative point. They too really are ready to bargain with you if they found you suitable for the job.

The question arises whether what are the points which we should keep in mind while negotiating for the salary. I would really give you some tips for this and they are as follows:

1.You should delay the salary negotiations for the last.Salary negotiation is a very serious part of the interview. Will you be agreeing to work for just $9000 per month if your actual salary should be at least $ 9000 per month? You will certainly agree that you will not accept such deal. Though the recruiters do not want to make you fool but they might start the salary negotiation process with a very small amount to surprise you if they have not mentioned the salary as yet. While doing this they really expect from you to prove that you deserve more. This type of negotiations is more common with highly paid jobs where the experienced candidate apply. However this is absent in the interview of the fresher. You can really check out for the jobs for fresher. You will always come across one point and that is they are told in advance what salary they will get.

However if you will talk about the post like vice president then you will come to know what actually salary negotiation is. The degree of negotiation increases as you will come across recruitment of the employees who are more experienced. The person whom you as a recruiter will consider as a Vice president of any company will really be a very strong personality and you will definitely hope for a very hot negotiation.

2.You must also keep in mind that you should really find out in advance that what is the cost of your skills in the market and hence you can negotiate accordingly.

I would like to add that it is my general experience that negotiations are more for the higher post and negligible for fresher. The more experienced you will be more will be the negotiations.

Comparison between Entrepreneur or Intrapreneur

Entrepreneurs are the persons who have a capitalistic idea. They try to build their own business and hence risk their own finance. However as far as intrapreneur are concerned they are those people who work under some organization and provide their assistance but they do not risk their own finance. The ego of entrepreneur is never dented but in the case of intrapreneur the case is a bit different because he has to work under somebody. He can be a part of top management but yet his decision can be overruled by the owner of the organization. However the entrepreneur sets their own business goal and tries to fulfill it with his own ideas. As far as intrapreneur is concerned they have to work to achieve the goals set by the organization.

Nothing is set to risk as far as intrapreneur is concerned however if the career is important for him/her then it will really be at risk because his/ her performance will decide his future prospects. The entrepreneurs have every thing to lose. They can lose money as well as the status if they go wrong.
However the country needs both of them. The small businessmen form around 80 to 90% of the total business of the country. And they are helped by the intrapreneurs. If there will be no intrapreneurs then no organization can run smoothly. Either it is board of directors or the middle level management, all of them are formed by the intrapreneurs. I cannot even imagine how somebody can even think about an organization without intrapreneurs.

It is rightly said that the intrapreneurs are governed by the entrepreneurs. However it is also rightly said that the organizations are governed by the intrapreneurs. You can talk about any department; they all are intrapreneurs except the owner or the shareholder of the company whose money is under threat. The entrepreneur put their money on risk and the intrapreneur makes the money out of it for them.

Can you guess that what we as an employee of any organization will be. I must tell you that we will in this case be an intrapreneur. And can you guess what will be our objective. Yes, it will be to get closer to the target which is given by the organization. However apart from all this our target will also be to achieve our career goals. This is the only factor which is at risk as far as we in this case will be concerned. However if we will also invest our money then our money will also be at risk and we will be an entrepreneur in this case.

However either your are an entrepreneur or a intrapreneur one thing is for sure that the country needs you and you should your eyes pointing towards your fixed goals and that is what will be fruitful for the country. It is the entrepreneur and the intrapreneur who collectively decide what the future of the country will be.

How to Find Summer Jobs

Summer jobs are really very easy to find out. These are really the jobs which you do in leisure time. I must say that time is very precious and you should never waste it. As far as summer jobs are concerned this can be done only by students or teachers because you will hardly ever see a company giving such a long holidays. Hence we will be confined to students and teachers only. I must say that children get the summer holiday to enjoy. But they can increase their enjoyment if they work part time somewhere. In this way they will be able to increase their pocket money and I must say that they should really go for it.

I would like to give a list of summer jobs which you as a student can do and earn a very good pocket money. I will list them one by one. They are as follows:

1.Pizza huts:
The first job which comes to my mind is that of pizza hut. You will be required to prepare the burgers according to a know recipe. You will just have to put everything in place. This job is suitable for the children whose age is over 14 years. I would not really ask the child whose age is less than 14 years to work at all.

However you will really find it very enjoyable. You will just have to arrange all the tings like cheese, boiled potatoes, special sauce and all the other ingredients at ne place and you will find that the burger is ready. Similarly you can prepare pizzas. But for safety you will only be allowed to make burgers. Pizzas are made by experts. As a kid you can be the power house of the shop. You will have to work for only four hours in the evening.

2.Data entry jobs:
There are many data entry jobs which a student can do easily. You will just be required to fill an excel sheet or you will have to fill a form. The job will be simple and you will be given all data. You do not need to think a lot. You will just have to type. This will really earn you a very good amount which you can either spend or enjoy as a pocket money.

3.Website designing:
If you are in college doing graduation then during your summer holidays you can go for some internship. For example you can make a website for some company. This will earn you a lot of money and also you will have a great chance to get an opportunity after your graduation.

I must again emphasize that the summer holidays are for enjoyment and you will not loose anything by working for just four hours a day. And its not really bad to earn hundreds of dollars for your pocket money.

Advise To Become a Radio Disc Jockey

A radio disc jockey is one who plays recorded music for the radio audience. You must have heard the FM radio and off coarse the DJ show on the radio. I must say that they really do a great job. Their job is basically to provide music so that the audience can dance and enjoy the fun. They are the winner in their community if they are able to force the people to dance with their music. There are many kinds of DJ and all of them really do a fabulous job. You must have visited many clubs and enjoyed the music offered by the DJ. It is really fabulous to hear.

You must be wondering up till now that what are the equipments which these radio Jockey uses. They are as follows:
1.Sound recording is a DJ perfect medium like computer media files and compact disc.

2.A combination of two play sound recording for alternative back and forth to create continuous music.

3.Mixers, headphones and so on.

I must say that radio disc jockeys are more often busy in nights when all the people get some leisure time. It is a bit different from the club DJ because the club DJ plays the music in clubs. Some times we do not have the time to go to the club. Hence we just switch on our radios and enjoy the music on radio provided by the Radio DJ. I assure you that you will surely enjoy the music and I must say that it is fabulous to hear.

However there are so many advise that I would like to give to the radio disc jockeys. Some are as follows:

1.Do not go on providing very loud music. You can always put a break between two songs by a soft song. I must say that people do not have any time to spend on understanding the song. They just want to enjoy the music. However they should be provided some rest between the songs. Otherwise I must say that it might create havoc. This is really the characteristic of a good DJ to provide a good and healthy music.

2.The radio disc jockeys are known for their voice. No body really sees them. Hence I will really advise only those people to join this field who have good voice. I am not telling that good Radio disc jockeys cannot be a good club DJ. They can really be. But they should have good body as well.

The only difference between the club DJ and radio DJ is that the first one should look nice and should be attractive but this is not the case with radio DJ.

You will not be allowed to do these jobs unless and until you have license. These are called regulated jobs and those which do not require any license are called unregulated jobs.

You should really keep in mind that there are different requirements and standards as far as different localities in Canada are concerned. You can never say that teacher require same qualification in Toronto and Vancouver. There are really different standards. Hence while searching for the jobs in Canada you should be area conscious as well as far as job search is concerned.

Apart from this you should also consider how and where you should search for the job. I must tell you that you can search for job postings and also you can search for hidden jobs. You must know that hidden jobs are not advertised and you will only come to know about it through your friends and family members or some professional job sites.

You must have heard about telecommunication. You must know about antennas. There are number of antennas throughout the country. However as far as it's maintain ace is concerned there is one NOC (National operation centre. A subject matter expert governs team leader whereas team leader governs a list of electronic engineers. Actually the company can not afford large number of subject matter expert. Hence they leave behind fresher on the station and they are just required to check out whether all the bulbs are shining bright. If any bulbs goes off then he required to tell his team leader. The team leader checks out for the fault by visiting the station. He is guided by the subject matter expert from the NOC.

Best ten greatest wide receivers of all time

These are according to me ten best wide receivers of all times. I will list them for you:
1.Jerry rice:
I dare someone to someone to argue with this pick. Jerry rice is so much better than any other wide receivers to ever play the game. Even his statistic looks like a joke, they are simply unreal. The fact is that jerry rice can easily be the greatest football player of all time. You can easily say that his records will not even be sniffed in next hundred years.

2.Don Hutson:
I know his statistics aren't great but you should really not care about it. It was he who received most of the passes which was even more than what the other members of the team combined received. Don was one of the greatest receivers in the entire history of football. For these reasons Hutson clearly gains the third spot in my team.

3.Marvin Harrison:
I know you would not like me to add those names that are still playing but believe me that Harrison really deserves a place in this list. With his fantastic numbers, lights-out play and unselfish attitude which are a rarity for receivers, Harrison is really one of the greatest receivers ever.

4.Randy moss:
Again a controversial pick, I think you will really say this. However if you will really look at his numbers then you will really come to only one conclusion and that is there has been no prolific receiver than Moss.

5.Paul Warfield:
He is another receiver who lacks impressive numbers but he was a real dominant force before forward pass became very common in football.

6.Tim brown:
He was one of the most consistent and solid receiver in the entire history of the football game.


7.Isaac Bruce:
Bruce is really a model of consistency. While he may not be among the flashiest of the receivers, he continues to accumulate solid numbers every year.

8.Terrell Owens:
Yes I too hate Owens. But the numbers clearly suggest that he is among the best receivers in the world of football. If you have any problem then you can just look at his numbers. Yes, he has many years of football still left.
9.Steve Largent:
I must add that he is among the best receivers and hence he is in my list.

10.Jimmy smith:
There were a number of footballers whom I could have added in my list but I decided to add smith in my list because though he was not physically blessed but he really was a lesson for other footballers since he always was able to make a way for himself.

I must tell that these are my choices and you can really have yours.

Secrets to Speed up Your Read

How nice it would be if we were able to come to a conclusion of any article or document very quickly with a little reading. One has to dig and go through maximum number of books in the library in order to improve his/her vocabulary. Your reading speed will certainly increase. You have to go through suffixes and prefixes of which word is made of. Then only one can find the meaning of all words. Reading books is the best way to improve vocabulary.

Comprehension is the other way to speed up reading. One can take a comprehension and set up the time limit. Again and again he / she should try to read it and answer to related question in as much less time as possible. One should be grammatically accurate to read anything very quickly. Punctuation, sentences, noun, verbs, tenses, antonyms, synonyms etc should be thoroughly known.

In most cases reading is specific to a list of subjects. In that case, you should have thorough knowledge of those subjects. But grammar is equally important.

Job search is a very interesting task. A person will search for job in the field in which he/ she is specialized. He should have knowledge of keywords related to that field. For example database administrator and let the sub keyword be oracle. The search engine will list all the jobs related to database administrator who are specialized in oracle.

You also should know that a skilled reader does not read the whole comprehension in same speed. He varies his speed according to the toughness of the content. One should take into consideration:
  1. How difficult reading material is?
  2. Your vocabulary strength
  3. How familiar you are with the subject?
  4. Your purpose of reading

When we read at a brisk speed we are feeding information in brain closure to its thinking speed. This is the speed at which brain absorbs data. The key is to allow brain capture whole idea and concepts not disjointed words and sentences, which we come across while reading. Tough comprehension should not necessarily be read slowly. Actually it wastes time. One should always try to read at the speed at which it is injected in the brain.

The way we are taught to read in the school, does not really work. They tell us to read more slowly when we cannot remember it. If we read slowly, our brain goes to sleep faster. Hence we should read at reasonable speed.

Greeting Card Printing

Greeting cards are one of the best ways to express your feelings in front of somebody. It is possible that you make a greeting card by yourself, but you should be a great artist to do that. Lots of the greetings card companies are doing these jobs. The best company which comes in my mind is Archie which is among the biggest greeting card company in the world.

You might be enjoying Good Friday or a Halloween. You will find greetings cards related to all the festivals. Either you want to say merry Christmas or you want to congratulate some one on his 25th anniversary. The greetings card is the cheapest way to greet somebody. From the past few years greetings cards are also available on net and you can directly email them to your friends. I must tell you that you will get greeting card on any festival or occasion which you will want.

There is a great competition in the greeting cards designs visualization. Lots of great artists are engaged in defining the design of greeting cards. The better and unique the design will be more you will earn. I have seen many designs which were really awesome. They were really a treat to watch. You will always try to send the best cards to your loved ones during Christmas. Christmas is a great festive occasion and lots of cards are available on Christmas. I must tell you that those cards which are really new are sold at very high costs.

Some cards own the drawing of famous artists and they are really sold for a very high price. But you can always find the cheaper and better card as well. The main part of the card is the quotation which is written on it and if you are selecting some painting then it is also very important. You can always order for a particular painting which you want on your card. However you will have to pay in thousands as far its cost is concerned. I have seen cards which cost more than $100000 and also cards as cheap as 20 to 30 cents.

I must tell you that making a greeting card is an art. The art of the artists is sold and the artists charge for that. He charges for the total number of cards which will be available in the market. For example he might charge $2000 for 10000 cards. He also enjoys the royalty if larger number of cards is sold. Piracy is a headache which is related to the business of greeting cards. However it controlled by the government. The government checks out for any piracy cases and criminals are punished if they are found guilty.

You will definitely like to know that, what are the secrets because of which, you can surely win a telephonic interview. Yes telephonic interview is a bit tricky. But you can always succeed if keep the following points in mind. I will tell you one by one:

1.Talk naturally:
It might be that you receive the first call from some company. Hence, you should make sure that you always talk in best possible way so that no new caller can blame you for your cruel answer. For example you might be angry for some reasons and you might say loudly that," yes so and so speaking, who's that?" you can only think what type of impression will this create on recruiters mind. Hence you should make sure that you are polite to every body because you never know that which will be an interview call.

2.Save the number:
The first time you will receive the call on most of the occasion will just require formal introduction. They will also ask whether you are interested or not. If you say you will receive the next call very soon.

3.Talk to every company member politely:
You never know that at what post the interviewer is sitting. It is possible that the call might be of HR head as well. Hence you should make sure that whoever talks through the saved number should be satisfied. Yes company might have different phone numbers and you can get call from any number. Hence you should make sure that you properly settle the issue.

4.Prepare for telephonic interview as if you will be required to give the face to face interview:
Yes the telephonic interview is as important as other interviews and hence you should not waste even a single minute and prepare for the interview in best possible way.

5.Keep the hard copy of the cover letter and resume in front of you:

You must understand that succeeding in Telephonic interview will win a place for you. Hence, you should make sure that you prepare well for the telephonic interview as well.

Types of Interview

Interviews are basically of many types. However, you can broadly divide all kind of interview in two categories:
1.Structured interviews
2.Unstructured interviews

I will tell you about each of them.

1.Structured interviews:
Structured interviews are those in which questions are pre- defined. The person who takes the interview have a list questions and they ca ask only from them. Technical interview are one of the example of structured interview. You must have gone through some kind of technical interviews. What is your idea about those interviews? You must have found that same questions were asked to all of the contestants. You can take an example. Suppose you have to give an interview of java professional. Then it's well known in advance that you will be asked question about java. I must tell you that there are some pet questions in java which are more often asked. You must also know this.

2.Unstructured interviews:
These are the types of interview which are different in almost the other same interview which you will face. However I must tell you that these kinds of interviews are also very important. Various surveys which are conducted via telephone are an example of unstructured interview. HR interviews are also example of unstructured interview.

You have just learnt about structured and unstructured interviews. I must tell you that as far as structured interview are concerned, you can prepare in advance. But the mystery of unstructured interview ends only on the date on which the interview is to take place. Hence you can say that the structured interviews are easier than unstructured interviews. But this is not really the case. There is always a chance that you can predict the questions. Interviews like screening test can easily be understood and you can easily tell what questions will be asked. Most of the interviews are verbal and you will hardly find any sample because no body gets any paper. However many groups put forward some questions which they remember. You can really go through them and learn what is required.

However, you will find out that the questions of non structured interviews are so general that you can hardly need to study in advance. They might ask from you about your hobby or your favorite game. Now you only tell that what preparation you can make to answer to these questions. Really you are required to make no effort and hence you should really not worry. However the structured interviews needs some study. If you are giving technical interview on java, then you will have to study the details of the java language. Only then you will be able to pass these interviews. I must say that unstructured interviews require smartness whereas the structured interview requires study.

A Brief History of Outsourcing

Out sourcing has got a long history. It is practiced from the roman period as well. I must tell you that outsourcing is very common these days. Lots of large companies find it extremely difficult to manage all the departments. Hence they often outsource some of the departments to some other companies. I would like to like to take the name of Coca Cola which has now outsourced all the departments and is merely a marketing company now. Out sourcing is also termed as offshore business as well. You can outsource your work to a company in nearby country or you can outsource it to some other countries. The first type of outsourcing is called nearby shoring; however the second type of outsourcing is called offshore accounting.

You must be wondering that what the advantage in outsourcing is. I must tell you that outsourcing makes sure that there is smooth flow of business processes. I would also like to tell you about Multi-sourcing. As far as Multi-sourcing is concerned the company outsources different types of its job to different company. When taken as a one unit, it is called multi-sourcing.

The decision to outsource needs the approval of the board. One the management committee is ready for outsourcing, the search for the other company who the job will be outsourced begins. Lots of precautions are taken to decide the best company and who will manage the outsourced work in best possible way. I must tell you that there are many companies who are engaged in outsourcing process and I must also tell you that there is a lot of competition among them. Either its finance or software field outsourcing is very common. However it has a long history but it has gained importance in the last decade only. A special term has been given that is BPO (business process out sourcing). I feel that you must already have lots o knowledge about this term.

However the employees prefer to be real employees and not outsourced employee. You must understand that to get a good job you will have to struggle at first. Only after lots of struggle you will be able to establish yourself in the market. You can take example of president Obama. He is a 47 year old president of US.

However I would like you to just go through history. I really tell you that he was always ready for any job which he was asked to do. Hence you will very soon realize that it's not always an easy going. Yes the job in a BPO is not secure, but you should join it and have a belief that very soon you will be placed in some very good company.

Best tips for Career Networking

Career management is a topic which is very common these days. You might be amused with this topic but I must tell you that that career management is also very important. Have you ever visited www.linkedin.com?

I would really like you to visit this site which is totally a career networking website. I would like put forward some of the points in front of you which will help you if you would like to form your career network. They are:

1.You should either be employed or a fresher:
It's mandatory that whenever you want to form a career network, you should make sure that all the information you provide about yourself should be correct. However it has been found that on most of the occasion you tend to give wrong information. I question that how you can then invite your friends to join the network. I must tell you that your first objective should be to form a true profile so that your real friends can identify you. You can ask all of them to join your network. There are various websites which provide this type of facilities. However as far as email is considered most of the sight limits it for members only. With a slight research you will find out that this is for your advantage. I must also tell that your resume is a must for these kinds of sites. You will have to upload it with your profile. Similarly the other friends should also upload their resumes in profile otherwise they will not be able to join the network.

2.You can find many advantages:
I must tell you that if you will read the first point carefully, you will easily find out that there are lots of advantages. You can think of a situation when some recruiter of a top company joins your network. Yours and your friends resume will then be available with him/her and he/ she will definitely contact you as soon as they get any vacancy. However I must tell you that there is a difference between job sites and career networking. As far as job sites are concerned you are not providing your resume for free. The job site charges some money to the recruiters to access your resume. However as far as career networking is concerned the recruiters get attached to you personally. Hence you have higher percentage of chance to get a job which will be better than your last one.

I must again tell you that career networking is a very good use of the internet. You and your friends, all of you will be profited by it in some way or the other.

Career Opportunities in USA

According to a survey conducted by employment federation, US have been found to be the best place in the world for employment opportunity. The salary related to various fields is best in the world. However the present crisis has really set all the companies to think whether how many employees they need. I am very sad to tell that most of the companies are reducing their work force just because they cannot afford to give them all the salaries. So how can I keep this disastrous news away from my article? It's really sad to notice all this.

However, career opportunities have dried up for a while but not for always. I must tell you that I will keep the economic crisis away for rest of my article and emphasize on what are the real opportunities available. You can talk about computers, administration, commerce, medical, banking, biotechnology, brokerage, catering, hospitality and any one. US have job opportunities for all of them.
However there are some job opportunities which are really specialty of the US as compared to rest of the world. You must know that all the software companies have there head offices in none other than US. As far as luxury is considered, the US stood at second place after Arabian countries. But you will find the US administrator more lenient than the Arabian countries. And I must also add that software companies don't have their own outlet in this part of the world. I would like to discuss each field in detail one by one:

1.Technology:
As far as technology is considered, how can one forget NASA and Silicon Valley and both of them are situated in US? I must tell you that the work which is done in these two techno giants is really great and you can find no one who will say no to a job in these two places. As far as Silicon Valley is considered it is famous for electronic products and hence is the hottest place for electronic engineer. And if you talk about NASA then even a kid knows what it is all about.
2.Computers:
You must have heard about Cisco, Microsoft, Accenture, and Sun Microsystems. These are just few examples. I must tell you that at present US is the head office for all the software companies. All the head offices are present in either California or some part of US. You cannot forget US if you want to work in these companies. All the technologies and software which are launched daily is a product of these big companies of US. People from all around the world are involved in these companies.

I have given you details of some companies and I must tell you that same is the case with other fields. You can either talk about nursing or real estate, all are hot.

Careers in human resources

Human resource is really a very challenging job. Every company has its human resource department. The main job of human resource is to hire the require manpower. You must have come across various HR if you have completed your studies and participated in some sort of interview. If you are applying for any technical job then you are required to face two interviews out of which the first interview is an HR interview. You must note that you will only be allowed to attend the technical interview if you pass the HR round. The HR is highly paid too. They are really relaxed throughout their career and they are good looking as well. You will find lots of females in this field.

Requirements to become an HR:

The only requirement which you have to fulfill in order to become an HR professional is the master degree in human resource. However, sometimes the graduation degree will also do. If you are an engineer or a doctor, you can directly join the HR field. However an MBA degree is the best suited to become an HR. you can choose human resource as your subject in MBA.
Jobs which you will have to do as an HR:

As an HR you will be required to do following things:
1.As an HR you will have to use job sites and you will have to search the candidates which are best suited for the job opening which you have got.
2.Once you have shortlisted the candidates, your next job is to contact those candidates.
3.You should contact the companies HR panel in advance and ask what they require and when can the interview be organized.
4.Your next job is to let all the shortlisted candidates know about the interview dates.
5.You are also responsible to make it sure that all the shortlisted candidates take part in the interview.

I must tell you that if anyone from your list is selected then you will get an incentive apart from your monthly salary.

However I must tell you that there is a hierarchy in the HR department. You can find HR manager as well as HR executive. The job which I have listed above is done by HR executive. As far as the HR manager is concerned there main job is to maintain relationship with all the HR heads of different companies. I must tell you that the private consultancy also come in this category.
Many say that the HR department is the busiest department of any company. You must know this if you are working somewhere. You must know that you are required to register on the HR register both in the morning a and at the evening as well.

Student loan At Low interest Rates

The higher education is so expensive that almost every one is in need of loan. There are various kinds of loans which are available in US. There are some schemes by which you can get the loan now and pay back after you have completed your graduation. However there are some differences between different types of schemes and you should know that in detail.

Some of the schemes are:

1. Federal student loan for students
2. Federal student loans paid in name of parents.
3. Private student loans.

You can categorize different kind of loans into some sub category as well. For example there are two types of federal student loans. The first one is subsidized loans and the second type is unsubsidized loans.
You will come across federal direct loan as well. However I am describing the above three kinds of loans:

1.Federal student loans for students
Actually the US government knows that all the students need loans for their graduation. Hence they have provided the loans to the students. This is different from scholarship and it is required to pay back the loan amounts. However there are some types of loans which carry interest with them from the beginning. However there are also some loan schemes that don't carry any interest burden unless and until you have completed your graduation. Federal student loans come in this kind of category. US government offers the loans top the students because they know their problem. I would also like to add one more point and that is; you can get two types of loans as far as federal student loans are concerned and that is subsidized and unsubsidized loans. The subsidized loan does not charge any interest unless and until you complete your graduation. Actually the interest is paid by the government. I will explain it for you. Suppose you take loan of $10000 and its interest during your graduation mounts to $2500. Then this interest will be paid by the government and you will have to just pay $10000 after graduation. However as far as unsubsidized loans are concerned you will have to manage the interest from start. However both the schemes provide a grace period of at least six month.

2.Loans for parents:
Education loans are also provided to parents, however the interest rate is very high and also they are required to pay the interest from the beginning. You will quickly realize that you will be in loss.


The third kind of loan is also similar but you will be required to pay a very large amount as an interest. I will really recommend you that students should go for loans on behalf of their own name.

How to achieve your Career Success

Career is the most important aspect of anybodies life. You must know that more than half of your daily time is for office. In fact you will have to spend most of the time in office. Hence the job which you have to do in office should be interesting and you should love it. If this is not the case, I assure that you will definitely get fed of the job very soon.

You must have some ambition in your childhood. In fact most have the children do have ambition. They do hard work in their schools and even at their homes. Some have flavor for sports and they take part in various sporting events to get a big chance. What I would like to add is that you can opt for different career but you should work hard in any field which you will select. Only hard work and a little bit of luck will take you to the road which leads to success.

I would like to add that success stories need a beginning and then only the journey will begin. The story begins with a dream which a child sees. This dream is then transformed into an ambition and with lots of hard work the ambition changes into a reality.

You must have heard about Thomas Alva Edison. I would like to tell you one story about Edison. In his childhood Edison was very creative. Once he saw the birds flying. He thought that if birds can fly why cant we? He suddenly thought that if we make a paste of insects and flies and drink it then we will be able to fly. He performed these experiments on her made servant. He gave her the paste of insects to drink and asked her to drink it. He eagerly waited for the next day. However something different happened. The made servant fell ill and everyone wanted to know the reason. Edison some how escaped from beatings. However we all know what a great scientist he came out to be.

I can tell you number of stories and there will be no ending. However I must tell you that you will come across one thing and that is, you will see setbacks many times before tasting the actual taste of success. I can just give you some examples and give you some reasons. But I must tell you that you will find it true on most of the occasions. There only a few lucky champs who get everything very soon. On most of the occasion hard work is required. And I must tell you that you should have the following proverb in mind and that is, "try, try, try again, unless and until you succeed". I hope you got the point.

Are you a teenager? Have you just completed your schooling? If yes do you know what is going to be your next step? I really feel that most of you are worried and confused. It's not your fault. Actually most of the teenagers are confused. It's a common feeling in all teenagers. However all of them want solutions too and so will you? Isn't it yes from your side? I hope so.

Anyways you will also agree that the best career for you will be that in which you can apply your skills. And this is what we by career test emphasize on.

You must have heard about aptitude test. I must tell you that the first test which you will have to give is an aptitude test. It contains a series of questions related to English language, general awareness, reasoning, quantitative and so on. The main reason behind the aptitude test is to find the level of sharpness of your mind. You must agree one can not insist you to join engineering if you lack sharpness. Believe me I am not discouraging you. Actually different peoples are meant for different things. A boy who had good control on hands is really suited for surgeries. A boy who has good hand eye coordination should play baseball. I really mean it. You should really understand this point and make sure that you are able to understand your plus points and not waste time on negative points. This is what career test is all about.

Have you heard the proverb that "jack of all trade and master of none"? You must know what it actually meant. And I would really want that you do not go in this direction. I would recommend that you should go for career test and realize what are you plus points and then accordingly make the future plans.

Chances in Oil and Gas Jobs Abroad

Oil and gas are two industries which are interlinked and their after effects are an important factor in today's economy. The market is experiencing a great slow down due to the rise in the prices of oil and gas. However these two industries are worldwide industries and there is a vide variety of job opportunity in this field. These resources are found in one country and sold in the other country. You should really hope for the best when you are talking about these industries.

Among the top countries as far as oil production is concerned, the topmost countries are Arabian countries. US, Russia, Uzbekistan, China and Canada are some of the other countries who have oil and gas in plenty.

There are two types of oil industries, "Downstream" and "Upstream" industries. Upstream is used to describe the processes involved. The upstream of the crude oil means how to extract the oil and gas from the wells. This is likely comprising of exploring sites where the oil can be found and to finally extract them from those regions.

As far as downstream category is concerned, it comprises of the extraction of marketable products from the crude oil. This will include transportation of crude oil and gas using pipelines and pumping systems. If any reserve is found then the upstream job also comprises of development of oil and gas field, for example development of wells.

As far as jobs are concerned this field is global and you can get the job in any part of the world. An oil refinery engineer from UK can get a job in Iran and a fire engineer from France can get a job in china. As you will go on seeing and admiring this field you will certainly realize that there is a hike in oil prices every next month.

The oil and gas industry is driven by the demand. The increase in demand of certain products can lead to an increase in the production of that material. There is a great concern for environment since the environment is badly effected by the oil and gas usage. There is always a demand for environment friendly products. And the engineers who are involved in this field are generally asked to produce them.

The oil and gas industry provides employment for many type of candidate. It is next to paradise for the chemical engineers and also not far behind for mechanical engineers. The diploma holders who are specialized in some field related to oil and gases have also great chance to get a job ion this field. The price range is very high and you can expect for best as far the oil and gas industry is concerned.

Careers in Complementary Medicine a concise Guidance

Do you know what complementary is really about. You must have heard about acupuncture and ayurveda, medicine. These are any healing practice which does not fall in conventional medicine. You cannot write these medicines under normal medicine technique. They are really different. However they are very effective and there are so many medicines which can be cured by the complementary medicines. It is believed that acupuncture which is an example of complementary medicine can cure cancer. Isn't it lovely to hear this? Unconventional medicines are as dissimilar in their establishment as in their method.

Definition of complementary medicine:
There is no exact definition of complementary medicine. However I would like to define it for you. "Complementary and alternative medicines is a broad domain of resources that encompasses health system, modalities and practices and their accompanying theories and belief."

I would also like to list some types of complementary medicines. I would like to write the NCCAN classification. We can classify under following heading according to NCCAM:

1.Whole medical systems
This cut across more than one of the other groups; example includes acupuncture which is a Chinese medicinal therapy and Ayurveda.

2.Mind body medicine
I would really love to give you details about this medicine. Actually it is meditation. The logic behind this medicine is that all the diseases are caused because your minds do not get appropriate rest. The meditate practitioner feels that if he can give rest to the mind then he will really be able to cure the disease. Now the question arises that how to give the mind rest. It is well known that our mind does not rest even when we are sleeping hence you need some other way. Meditation is the best way to give the mind rest.

3.Biological based practices
This uses substance found in nature for example herbs, foods, vitamin and other natural substance. I was watching discovery channel the other night. The serial was Man and Wild. Jack one of the scientists was caught in one of the forest and has to cope up with. He ate bananas in the forest. But I was quiet astonished when he just caught a caterpillars and ate it. He further told that he will get lot of vitamin from caterpillar. I am really astonished. Aren't you amazed? These scientists are really mad. But I really like what they come up with. I must tell you that jack was also found to be correct.

4.Manipulative and body based practices
Chiropractic and osteopathic are two examples of this type of medicine.

5.Energy medicine
This is a kind of therapy which deals with putative and verifiable energy fields. Two examples are bio-field and bio-electromagnetism.

I must tell you that these type of medicines work where the common medicines don't. Hence you should really know about these medicines.

Building Your Hobby into Your Freelance Career

Working as a contractor or as a freelancer means the same. You can go either way but you will end up with only one thing and that is self business. I the medieval period when knights roamed on land and the fighting was basically done on horseback with a long pole known as lance, the mercenaries of the time were called freelancer. Today by freelancing we really mean writer, designer and programmers. As far as freelancing is concerned, the freelancer presents his/her service without a long term commitment. They charge hourly, daily or they have a fixed price. However if you want to make your career in freelancing then you have to keep following things in mind:

Decide your charges:
This is a very important aspect as far as freelancing is concerned. You might assume that you can charge any amount of money. But you are really if you are thinking in such way. I really tell you that you will have to do a great research in deciding what you should charge. You should note that what the other are charging for the same job. You should also notice how experienced they are. Make sure that you should look for those who are similar to you and don't have working experience more than you. It's really necessary since you are there to bid. You will have to bid for the projects. And you should know that there will be hundreds of the freelancer who will also bid. The employer will only select you if you take the least and you are the best for the job. Hence you should really decide what should be your charges. For example you can ask for $12 per hour. However, you should not feel frustrated. Your hourly rate will go on increasing according to your experience and your performance.

Add your previous performances in your portfolio:
You should really add in you portfolio whatever you have done in the past. This will help you in getting better reply. Your bid will also show strong presence if you do so.

Give test regularly:
Most of the freelancing site asks you to pass test and you should really go for it. Your portfolio will improve if you pass number of test and make them public.
