“Should I date a co-worker”

“You should date anything that has a pulse, bad judgment, and no restraining orders against you.”

You need to update your CV… Now what?

October 6, 2009 Leave a comment

At a seminar I taught called “Marketing Brand YOU”, I told participants that getting ready for a job interview was pretty much the same as marketing and selling oneself. You are the product; the job interview is the sales pitch; and everything that comes in between that–your CV (curriculum vitae or resumé), the way you dress, the way you walk, how you conduct yourself even before and after the interview–is all part of your marketing and PR strategy. Everything works in concert to land you that job.

But don’t take it from me; I’m just an expert at communicating. :) Take it from these guys at Monster.com, who have made it their business to match jobseekers and employers. Thanks to this wonderful website (which is one of my personal favorites) called Slideshare.com, we now have access to a Monster presentation aptly titled: “Awesome Words to Use on Your CV.”

No, seriously!! As someone who has made a living out of words, I know that your words will make or break you. Check out this presentation for some cool words you can use to pimp your paper. :)

Then you can thank us later :)

Making ‘Sexy’ an ‘In’ Thing in Offices

October 6, 2009 Leave a comment

When I get to see pieces of furniture in an office setting that defines sexiness to a different level, I could not help but think of high-fashion boutiques. However, if I am asked what my opinion in putting ‘sexy-ness’ in the office–it should be!

Working for an office where one could sit on fashionable, comfortbale chairs–it gives a different feeling of power and confidence.

I stumbled on a site that offers some ‘sexy’ stuff that might be good addition to your offices.

Check the link, here!

Then, there is this article that I was intrigued as well. Check it here!

How Safe is Office Romance?

October 5, 2009 1 comment

Today, with my current work–I noticed that there are couples employed in the organization. Well, personally here at the office, I don’t see any ‘unhealthy’ thing about it since couples do work for different departments.

I remember in an office I used to work for, there was this couple who started out as friends, buddies and eventually they end up as lovers … and got married last year. It was actually a romance that we were witnesses to how it blossomed. We were all happy that they tied the knot.

What worried our boss is that the couple are in the same department. So the greater chances of their work performances would be affected, if ever problems arise between the couple.

I thought of sharing something about Office Romance.

What is a “Cherry Bomb” and why do you need it for work?

September 25, 2009 1 comment

Most people who have a job, possibly including you, wants SOMETHING MORE out of it. More money. More time. More fun. More travel. More romance. Whatever the case may be, no job is perfect–even the high-paying ones–and we always find ourselves wondering what else lies out there.

This series of slides is a ChangeThis manifesto by Sally Hogshead (and, yes, that is her real name–the poor thing). She talks about “cherry bombs”, or those “quick but explosive ideas that startle a situation out of paralysis.”

If you can relate with this line, then this one’s for you:

“You’re ready for some sort of change, but don’t know exactly what that change is. You want to move forward, and are willing to sacrifice to do so, but are unsure how to overcome personal or organizational paralysis.”

Ready for the cherry bombs?
