In These Uncertain Times: You Don’t Have To Have It All Figured Out

April 23, 2020

With people being forced to stay at home these uncertain times, we are beginning to see people take to social media. People need to express themselves and the internet is a good way to social distance while yet feeling closer to people. After all, humans are social animals.

While this has been helpful to many, we’ve also realized how many people are taking to sharing information about their routines and productivity during these uncertain times.

This is a low time for many and it’s reasonable to understand how this might bring down the spirit of someone currently impacted by the pandemic. For instance, we’ve read the news of a number of layoffs lately, not to mention those battling with their mental health in a time when it may feel like they are all alone.

The New Normal: Work From Home

April 6, 2020

With everything going on in the world today, we’ve had to take a shift and have a new normal: work from home. It’s really encouraging when you have employers that see the value in providing work from home options as a benefit because even though now many of us are forced to work from home to stay safe, it’s not really a new change to some.

This has really helped a couple of people feel more at ease. For workers in companies where having to work from home was never really incorporated into their culture, one can only imagine what these employees are going through and the number of organizational changes that’ll be taking place as we speak.

It’s important for employers to realize that the quality of your work isn’t determined by how often you show up in the office but in your results. Now, more than ever, this whole new experience will certainly prove to many employers that there are advantages to this new normal.

Many companies have no other option but to adopt this approach for their business continuity and it’s only getting even better as most companies now see the benefits.

Making Yourself More Appealing To Potential Employers

August 6, 2018

When you start browsing the job market for potential employers, chances are that you’re likely to feel a little overwhelmed. There are so many positions out there and each seems to have its own strict list of requirements.

It seems that employers are becoming increasingly picky when it comes to choosing their employees and expectations are higher than ever. The hardest part of the process? Accepting that there are more people looking for work than ever. Competition amongst potential candidates is fierce, so it can often feel that employers can afford to be extremely particular in their choices.

August 3, 2018

Wanting a professional change is something that happens to everybody from time to time. You may have been in your current role only a few years.

Change Your Life By Changing Your Career: How You Can Benefit

April 25, 2018

Many of us have a day job of some sort and might need a change. It may not be the standard nine to five, but what you find is that in order to make ends meet a good portion of your day will be dedicated to some form of job or money making the opportunity, am I right?

The problem is if you dislike what you do then your whole life can be affected. You find that you might have low energy levels or mood, feel less motivated and inclined to do things, and it can also affect your home life as your unhappiness can manifest on the people you love the most.
