WAYS TO LOSE A JOB BEFORE YOU'RE INTERVIEWED

The internet is filled with all the things you have to do to get your job but no one ever talks about all the things you have to not do to get a job. So here are some important “don’ts” of job hunting.

Don’t use one method of job hunting: Ok, we get that social media and online applications are the in-thing now but never forget or underestimate the power of plain ol’ physical applications submissions, recruiting agencies and “connect” referrals.

Don’t do mass applications with the same CV: No really, do not do that. Don’t apply for every job (you really cannot do “anything”) and if you’re going to apply to a lot of jobs in your field, ensure each application is tailored to the job description and company.

Don’t “play yourself”: As noted in point 1, social media is the in-thing right now and it can cost you major opportunities. Do not post anything you don’t want a prospective employer to see. If you do? Congratulations, you just played yourself *in D Khaled’s voice*

Don’t go for an interview unprepared or late: Fun fact; interviewers spring up surprise tests on job seekers most of the time. So research the company, industry and the job responsibilities, prepare for tests and rehearse your responses/presentation. Also, don’t be late, ask for directions and know your way to the venue before the interview date.

25 FACTS ABOUT OBAMA

By   KelseyWarner   on March 4, 2016 Inside Gov As the final remaining year of the Obama administration is well underway, the legacy that President   Barack Obama   will forge in history remains hotly contested.   Conservatives argue   Obama is the “worst president ever” while   liberals have claimed   he has “done more good for this country than any president before him.” He likely will not play the role of a “lame-duck” president, as the administration has yet to slow down. Obama currently finds himself in the middle of a   heated standoff   with the Republican-led Senate to fill a Supreme Court vacancy. He still pursues a workable   plan to close GuantanamoBay , one of his 2008 campaign promises. As his term nears its end, the passionate, vocal opinions on both sides of the political aisle may reach their crescendo as his legacy becomes ripe for interpretation. When reflecting on Obama’s time in the White House, the f...

BREXIT

An interview with Rev Victor Atokolo SO WHAT IS BREXIT? BREXIT, the term was coined during the movement towards referendum, the last referendum in England were the votes decided that Britain should exit the European Union. So the term actually means “Britain Exit”, they just coined it, came up from those who wanted Britain to exit the European Union. DOES BREXIT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ENDTIME? A lot to do, now we have seen the movement towards the one world government, consequently the one world religion and the full revelation of the antichrist, but we understand that that fullness cannot manifest until the church is taken away at the rapture, but the speed the quickens it in moving is that if the European Union remains intact, Turkey joins them as they are proposing and then the present move of the Democrats in America succeeds, we’re likely to have one world government in a short time and that would have intensified the persecution of Christians and Jews and...

NEW YEAR MESSAGE TO ALL CHRISTIANS FROM REV KHOBYS

Shalom to Christians all over the world, I want to say happy New Year for making it into this year. I want us to know that the year is like a race and everyone has started running since 12:00am in your country time. There are 3 categories of people in every race, first are those who will not finish the race, second are those who will finish but will not receive a prize, and third are those who will finish and receive a prize.  The question is which category would you belong to the year? It’s a matter of choice. God told me that this is the year of NEW HEIGHT for the Christians all over the world but it is dependent on our faithfulness. He said to me that this year 2017 “Your Faithfulness Determines Your Fruitfulness”, he also said that our relationship with him this year will determine how far we will go. God said to me for us to make it this year it is dependent on these 4 keys: Christ in you: The bible says Christ in us the hope of glory (Col 1:27); Christ in us this y...
