    How to Resign Without Burning Bridges

    Author: Michael Scaletti According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average American will have 12+ jobs over the course of their lifetime. That number is only growing as we become less tied to single career paths and single locations. The question is, how do you leave behind a job when it is time to move on without burning that bridge behind you? It can be a bit nerve wracking. When do you tell your boss?

    3 Things No One Tells You About Job Hunting

    Excerpt From: Work It Daily Job hunting is so much more than crisp suits, smiles, and polite, easy conversations with your interviewers. It’s also not a time for you to be imaginatively hopeful. Let’s get real. You’re on the prowl night and day. You’re rigorously looking for a job and gaining momentum. Despite being a pretty awesome candidate, you keep getting rejected. What makes unemployment worse is that your Indeed monthly reports show the positions you’ve applied to have

    Google’s Tips to a Perfect Resume

    Excerpt from: Fast Company Author: Stephanie Vozza Last year, Google received more applications than any other year—nearly 3.3 million. It’s no surprise that a lot of people want to work at Google, but what’s interesting is that the tech giant doesn’t use a bot to screen résumés. A real person reads every one. “At Google, we still rely on humans for hiring—it’s the most important thing we do,” says Google’s director of talent and outreach, Kyle Ewing. “We train folks to look

    The Most Useful Ways to Approach Time Management

    Author: Michael Scaletti Time management is important. There’s no way around that. Getting bogged down in project creep, a growing to-do list, and creeping deadlines can quickly overwhelm you if you’re not careful. According to LinkedIn, time management ranked as one of the 5 most desired skills in 2019. It’s not like you can simply decide to be better at it though. Just like any other skill, it takes practice, learned behaviors, and dedication to actually improve. There is a

    How to Introduce Yourself and Start Networking

    Author: Michael Scaletti Whether you work for a small business, a startup, a multinational corporation, are a contractor, or own your own business, one thing remains consistent. It’s all about who you know. Or maybe, more accurately, who you meet. According to multiple, peer-reviewed studies, simply being in an open network instead of a closed one is the best predictor of career success. This means meeting new people and straying outside your social comfort zone. And this mea

    The 5 Best Ways to Improve Your Commute

    Author: Michael Scaletti There are many things that are wonderful about living and working in the Bay Area. There are also some downsides. One of the biggest downsides to working in the Bay is DEFINITELY the commute. The average SF commuter spent 67.6 minutes commuting to and from work in 2019, according to a report from Commercial Cafe. That means they spent just over 294 hours, or almost 8 full work weeks, just commuting. That’s a LOT of time. One of the best things we coul

    Author: Sarah Landrum Source: Punched Clocks Whether you’ve been out of school for a few months or many years, it’s normal to miss learning new things. While you’re probably introduced to a few new skills, strategies or processes on the job, it’s not quite the same as immersing yourself in a new topic. When you don’t have the time or budget to head back to school, you may feel like you’re out of options. Luckily, there are a number of ways you can keep learning while at work.

    5 Tips to Nail an Online Job Application

    Source: Career Alley Today’s job search is almost entirely Internet-based. Whether you are looking for software engineering jobs available on LinkedIn or applying for a job on a job search board, it has become increasingly easier to apply for a job. You can apply for 20 jobs in the time it used to take to apply for 1 or 2 jobs.

    How to Future-Proof Your Career for 2020 and Beyond

    Author: John Schwarz Source: Fast Company I still remember my first meeting with the vice-president of my department more than 40 years ago. I was a junior developer at IBM and when he asked what my professional goals were, I told him I wanted to be a CEO. He nearly fell off his chair. Then he got serious and helped me map out a plan to get there. For the next 30 years, I followed that plan. (Spoiler alert: It worked.) That kind of career trajectory might seem quaint today. F
