Make A Difference

Thanks to AllPosters.com for this photo. Job seekers will surely find this very helpful.

Make a difference

  • Convey enthusiasm through body language, speech, and in your cover letter.
  • Show professionalism in your appearance and in the presentation of your resume.
  • Don’t let self-doubt defeat you. Believe that you can – and will – get the job.
  • Stress positive aspects of your qualifications and of previous jobs. Avoid negatives.

I have this little conversation with our H.R. (Human Resource) assistant in our branch. Our topic was about hiring and promoting. Out of curiosity, I asked her what are the main qualities does H.R. consider when hiring or promoting an employee. Is it the appearance? education? the background? or perhaps the status of the applicant?

Attitude – Charles Swindoll

ATTITUDE

BY: CHARLES SWINDOLL

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company … a church … a home.

Reaction on Adversity

Adversity

“A Carrot, an Egg  and a Cup of Coffee”
{A folklore tale of wisdom}

A  young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things  were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and  wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed  as one problem was solved, a new one arose.

Her mother took her to the  kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire.  Soon the pots came to boil.

In the first she placed carrots,
in the second  she placed eggs, and
in the last she placed ground coffee beans.
She let  them sit and boil; without saying a word.
