I took a staycation and it was exactly what I needed

I took a staycation and it welches exactly what I neededI took a staycation and it welches exactly what I neededI was late in life to catch the travel bug. As a terrible flier, leid going somewhere that involved me boarding a tin can in the sky was quite easy a decision to make. But then travel pretty much became a way of life for my generation and you werent anybody unless you were taking a big trip at least once a year as well as frequently escaping somewhere wonderful for a quick weekend. Millennials may not be buying houses, but most of them are well-established jet-setters.After all the United Nations estimates that 20% of all international travelers are millennials (approximately 200 million people) and 75%of young professionals in the U.S. see business travel as a major work perk and 65% consider it to be a status symbol, according to a recent survey commissioned byHilton Hotels Resorts. And lets face it, traveling is awesome. Experiencing new and exotic places, people and th ings is incredible and if you are lucky enough to do it, you should do it. However, at the same time, traveling is still a pain. It is annoying, inconvenient, exhausting and sometimes dangerous.That is why I opted for a staycation one weekend this summer. I could have actually gone to a fun wedding in New Orleans that weekend but it would have been a quick, turn around trip and just the thought of it was too much. So, I decided to stay at a hotel, about 10 blocks from my house (though many people just stay in their own homes for staycations) and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I had been feeling particularly stressed and this was the weekend of relaxation I needed.Here are some of the major benefits of a staycation1. Its cheaperUnless you go on a shopping spree or stay at the worlds most expensive hotel, a staycation is definitely cheaper. Even if you order meals out, you will inevitably save money by not taking a car, train or plane. According to theSimplemost/Dont Wa ste Your Money 2017 Travel Surveymore than half (52%) of respondents cited money as a travel stressor.2. Its easier to get thereNo waiting in lines, no airport security (and feeling violated after), no screaming children (unless they are your own) and no jet lag that will mess up your body and your clock. Being able to walk to my destination with only one small overnight bag was utterly delightful compared to the hell I put myself through when I overpack.3. Less planning is involvedTraveling is great but lets face it, the planning of a big trip becomes a second job that you dont get paid for. With a staycation, you can totally plan it out but if you dont have an itinerary, you will probably come up with something else to do. Winging things is not as easy when you travel especially if your party is bigger than just you. You also dont have to worry about meals as much because you know where to get what you like and not every meal needs to be a three-hour production. According to the S implemost survey,19% of respondents say logistics is a major stressor.4. You know people on your staycationIts great to pull a Reese Witherspoon in Wildand find yourself by doing the whole solo travel thing, but sometimes you just want to be surrounded by people you know. You can travel with friends but that can be tricky to coordinate with everyones crazy schedules but it is easy to grab a drink with a friend if you both live in the same place.5. You make discoveries about your hometown or cityWhen you do a staycation you may discover some hidden gems in your own neighborhood. For my staycation, I stayed at the Arlo Sohoand discovered all the perks this charming hotel has to offer. In addition to its super fun rooftop, I also discovered this hotel is a great place to just hang out during the day (super sweet staff, chill and inviting lounges, free Wifi, beautiful people walking around, Monday movie night and you can bring your dog) in case I ever need a daycation. It has also has a glamping section set up right in its courtyard so technically I went camping on my staycation without even leaving the city.6. You can actually disconnectOf course, you can disconnect when you travel but you have to make a real effort and you often need your phone and a Wifi connection to navigate and communicate but on a staycation, you may truly be able to unplug, even if it is just for a bit. Travel is great but I find I dont truly relax on trips but if I am in a familiar environment where I know I can let my guard down, there are a whole lot more possibilities.Consider a staycation if you are getting stressed out about planning a trip.

Cleaning Up Industrial Water

Cleaning Up Industrial Water Cleaning Up Industrial Water Waterclean wateris one of lifes essentials. People need it to live and industry needs it to churn out products ranging from computer chips to electricity. As access to stable supplies of clean, fresh water shrinks, municipalities and industry are looking to other sources and the technologies to cleanse them of salts, minerals, and pollutants. Putting together a successful project requires a host of project participants to maneuver through a range of regulatory, technological, and communication barriers, hopefully following a series of best practices.Identifying and defining those practices, as well as obstacles, is the goal of industry professionals convened by ASME to tackle the development and implementation of industrial demineralization, or desalination, technologies. The group, which met January 28-29 in Washington, D.C., is working along the parameters of an earlier group tasked with investigating best practices and futu re directions of municipal wastewater reuse by electric utilities.There are similarities electric generating stations as well as process plants or other industrial facilities require a water supply treated to specific quality. It is critical that water professionals from the owner define the water chemistry required and communicate that to prospective vendors and engineering-construction firms. The concept seems simple enough but group members agreed it does not always occur.What happened to the process engineer? asked Doug Hubbard, manager of generation chemistry standard and controls for American Electric Power, the giant Columbus, OH-based electric utility. Who takes ownership?Forward osmosis desalination plant, located at Al Khaluf in Oman. Image Starsend/Wikimedia CommonsPick and ChooseDesalination, with a long history of producing drinking water from seawater, is not new. But it is energy intensive and expensive. The Middle East is studded with plants, the largest to produce 2 28 mio gallons per day, using multi-stage flashing and reverse-osmosis technology. Membrane technology is newer than distallation, with reverse/osmosis being the most widely used system for desalination in the U.S. It uses pressure as a force to drive saline water through semipermeable membranes, producing a stream of brine and another of clean product water. It primarily removes sodium and chloride nanofiltration is also a membrane process that removes calcium, magnesium, and sulphates.In the U.S., the most high-profile demineralization project belongs to Carlsbad, CA. The southern California city and San Diego County are being squeezed by higher prices and reduced volume for drinking water brought in from northern California and the Colorado River. The privately owned 50,000-gallon-per-day plant will desalinate seawater for drinking water, meeting about 7% of the regions needs, according to city water officials. But industrial users across the country depend on clean water just as much, and often need their water treated to above federal drinking water standards.Participants also warned of expected zero-liquid-discharge requirements coming in the not-too-distant future. Technically, that can mean building a pond within the industrial plants boundaries but more often it is evaporators, crystalizers, or electrodialysis. All are costly and generally driven by regulatory obligations, often in regions where water is scarce, making reuse cost-effective.At the SourceIdentifying the properties of the source water and defining the quality of the product water are perhaps the first two keys to producing a successful project, agreed workshop members. Ideally, there should be three to five years of data on source water quality to ensure a proper treatment system. Designing and building a system with limited data courts trouble A system designed to handle one type of water could fail, or produce a product that compromises the industrial plants equipment.Details are often overlooked because the cost of a water treatment plant is minor compared to overall project costs, said workshop members, who noted that off-the-shelf systems are often recommended by vendors when an engineered system is the better answer.The workshop produced groupings describing characteristics of successful projects and barriers to success. Participants agreed that successful projects have the following characteristics Defensible design fundament for inlet water quality and sufficient quality and quantity of inlet and discharge water data, with adequate history. Frequent and meaningful communication among all project participants, including the owner, solution provider, and architecture/engineering firm, potentially written into the contract. The solution provider has proven, successful prior experience. The owner has prioritized cost, performance, reliability, and operability, a thorough cost estimate based on full economic analysis. Performance specifications fo r each piece of equipment are provided.Barriers to success were found to include Unclear project objectives or mid-steam changes in scope. No regulatory drivers to create a sense of urgency. The owners abdication of project management responsibility. Lack of real world experience by design professionals. Anti-innovation bias. Water projects not viewed as a revenue enhancer by owners financial staff, a view that often results in an inadequate final system.The group will review the findings with the goal of producing a report to enhance best practices and future initiatives within the industry.What I need is a document that becomes the industry best practice or standard for desalination system and equipment design, said Hubbard. Something that forces everybodys hand to do this right.What I need is a document that becomes the industry best practice or standard for desalination system and equipment design. Something that forces everybodys hand to do this right.Doug Hub bard, American Electric Power

How to Reach the World Series in Five Years

How to Reach the World Series in Five YearsHow to Reach the World Series in Five YearsFor longer than any of you currently reading this have been alive, this years World Series teams have been losers - sometimes lovable, legendarily cursed, often achingly close, but nonetheless, losers at the art of winning baseballs top honor.This year the Cubs, who last won the World Series in 1908, and the Indians, whose last victory was 1948, reached the peak of their sport. What can you learn from their successes to reach the peak of yours?This terrific recap from Jarrett Seidler at Baseball Prospectus walks through Theo Epsteins step-by-step transformation of the Cubsfrom consecutive last-place cellar dwellers to todays dominant franchise. In just five years, he and his new team reached the World Series.On the other side, the Cleveland Indians were largely pegged to be a mediocrity again this year - ESPN rated them 17th in their season preview.That these two teams are now the greatest in the game is part of the magic of sports. Its renewal, its redemption, its failing to remember the setbacks of last year as you pursue the glory of this one.Perhaps that inspires us fruchtwein about sports. Its the constant reminder, amidst a tumult of statistics and trivia and rumor and egos, that we can overcome and we can emerge victorious, despite the odds.And that reminds you that you, too, can overcome.Whether you are charting your rocketship to the stars, or contemplating setbacks of your own, this years baseball drama is a reminder that five years can change everything. And the best way to change five years from now is to change this year. And the best way to change this year is to change today.For sports team, picking the goal is easy - win the championship, raise your arms in victory, lift the trophy high.For you, picking the goal is part of the freedom, and part of the curse, of having choice in your career.What is your goal, your choice, your desire?Is it getting to the next promotion? Or the promotion after that?Is it getting into a more lucrative, more rewarding, or more fulfilling role in life?Is it changing industries, changing fields, or changing cities?Or is it just change, whatever form it may take? Change that takes you away from the drudgery of today and gets you to a new place in your career?Whatever your goals, whatever your dreams, the best way to become the champion you want to be is to follow the same simple steps that transformed the Cubs and Indians1. Set your goalWhats a thrilling place youd like to be in five years? While the randomness of life means you probably cant pick the title, the company, the place and the day - too much is out of your control - you can set simple goals. Be a VP, Marketing or Manage a large team of software engineers or Progress my sales career to where Im carrying a $10 mm book of geschftlicher umgang all make sense as simple, easy-to-understand goals to aspire to.2. Make the planKeeping it simple, what are the steps to getting there? The Cubs didnt do it all in one year and neither can you. Break down your goals into something you can actually achieve each year - getting the promotion, or improving your results, or out-performing your boss expectations.3. Go to practiceIts remarkably simple to be successful, but hard to do. As Silicon Valley star Keith Raboistweeted Saturday I have never met a single successful person who didnt get there by outworking other (exempting VCs).4. Play like a champion todayMixing sports inspiration, this Notre Dame football slogan captures the essence of being a winner. Every day, every meeting, every client call, every code review, every focus group, every industry conference, every slideshow, every day, you need to decide how much you want to be a champion.If the answer comes back very, very badly, then your results will predictably follow.So with the Cubs and the Indians in the World Series, Readers, its a sure thing that they cantboth lose.But we can also say that theyve both won already.And for you too, the choice is yours. Ill look forward to seeing you hold your championship trophy high.Im rooting for you

4 ways the most organized leaders stay on track

4 ways the most organized leaders stay on track4 ways the most organized leaders stay on trackYou may envy those you see that seem to have it all together organized, polished and ready for any situation, at any time. You might wonder how things will ever seem that simple and streamlined. If you want to be prepared for what lies ahead, read on to learn the tips and tricks that organized leaders used to stay on track.PrioritizeFirst, recognize that the truly organized are rarely trying to do it all. Prioritizing is key when it comes to getting work done. Not only does it help by forcing you to stop and think about the tasks at hand, but also what is truly critical or time-sensitive. For true success in prioritizing, be sure to ask your direct supervisor elend only will it help in making sure youve got the importance of each item straight, it will also signal to leadership that youre on task and ready to get the job done.Action stepSome tasks just arent important enough to get done at all, especially at crunch time. Work with your leadership to identify those tasks that just arent valuable and can be scrapped or deprioritized. Be sure everyone agrees before something gets set aside its not an area where you want confusion or misaligned expectations.PlanNext, decide how youre going to get it done. Assess how long you think tasks are going to take, which ones are going to need input from others, and when you can reasonably deliver a finished product.If, given all the realities of your workplace, the plan doesnt meet the timeline, start determining how you can make it work. Could the scope be decreased, or minimized initially? What tasks could be done after hours? What can you do in your most productive time window? Which ones could be started and then set aside while youre waiting for someone to get back to you? Is there someone else who could do some of the steps required? Begin with a rough outline and then involve your leadership to collaborate on how to meet d eadlines and expectations.Action stepHaving a plan signals to others that you have thought of everything, even if the timelines are tight and the workload high. If, after you outline a strategy, it proves impossible to get it all done, having a plan helps you definitively demonstrate the issues and acts as a starting point for a discussion on how to pivot and adjust.Get helpAnother tactic of the successfully organized is to ask others for help. Initially, it may seem counter to the image of having it all together to ask for assistance, but its critical to a job well done. Ask for help in prioritizing, in planning and in doing the work. The key is in how you ask for help presenting your situation with research, ideas and a proposed plan in hand is a lot different than dumping a tangled mess on someone else. Get help with the fine tuning, not all the heavy lifting and always show up with ideas instead of just problems.Action stepLet go of some of those easier tasks. If you were alway s the go-to person for a specific job, for example, it can be hard to pass that on to someone else. If youve mastered the task, however, and turned it into scripted, predictable work, take a deep breath and move on to a more critical task that need your consideration. Someone newer on your team may actually be eager for the opportunity to help.CommunicateFinally, whatever else you do, one of the best ways to appear organized is to proactively communicate. How are you progressing? What milestones have you met? What tasks are lagging behind? Are you going to meet a deadline? Clearly and respectfully answer these questions to leadership before they are ever asked. Let them know whats going on, when youre running ahead or behind schedule, and when you need input. Even if you dont have the nachrichtensendung theyre hoping for, proactively and consistently communicating is your best bet - it makes you look organized and on the ball, no matter what the circumstances.Action stepFollow a co nsistent communication schedule, such as giving an update email at end of day or week on high-priority items, projects or multi-person tasks. Put a reminder in your calendar or phone for yourself and give a quick synopsis people will come to know when to expect an update and will respect your consistent and organized communication.Being organized doesnt guarantee you can do it all, but it can help you set clear expectations about what is possible. Use these tips to get into some consistent habits and many of the other behaviors of the successfully organized will fall into place. Think about how you want to keep better track of your tasks, and how you want to keep those around you informed. Its not always about doing more, but it certainly is about doing what you do well, and making sure key people know about it, which will help you get ahead in any organization.Joel Garfinkleis anexecutive leadership coachwho recently worked with a senior manager who had trouble getting and staying organized.

Army Officer Functional Area Careers

Army Officer Functional Area Careers Army Officer Functional Area Careers A functional area is a grouping of officers by technical specialty or skill, which usually require significant education, training, and experience. An officer receives his or her functional area between the fifth and sixth years of service. Individual preference, academic background, the manner of performance, training, and experience, and needs of the Army are all considered during the designation process. Here are some of the military occupational specialties (MOS) among Army officer functional areas:   Army Foreign Area Officers: Field 48 All branches of the U.S. military have a foreign area officer or FAO program, and the Armys is the biggest and oldest. Theyre grouped by areas of concentration, expertise and language skills.

New book shares the secret to raising successful children

New book shares the secret to raising successful children New book shares the secret to raising successful children During her time reporting around the world for the Boston Globe, Tatsha Robertson noticed distinct approaches enacted by the parents of successful people from a wide range of racial or socio-economic backgrounds. Robertson’s observations compelled her to contact economist Ronald Ferguson to better understand the circumstances that define the achievement gap.An initial survey conducted by the Robertson and Ferguson involving 120 Harvard students and their parents seemed to suggest a shared systematic parenting approach to obtaining success.Follow Ladders on Flipboard!Follow Ladders’ magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and more!In  The Formula: Unlocking the Secrets to Raising Highly Successful Children, Ferguson and Robertson examine the developmental techniques observed by contemporary subjects alongside famous intellectuals from the past to cement the universal patterns that link many cases of extraordinary individuals.Pattern s emergeA child that bears an inherent intellectual dexterity, needs direction. According to the two authors, the key factors that enable early success can be summated through the equation: “smarts plus purpose plus agency equals fully realized.”The two submit that establishing goals needs to be taught very early. Talent that is inspired by a determination to accomplish specific objectives has a much better chance at flourishing. Additionally, Robertson and Ferguson believe a healthy dose of gumption to be essential; agency being the “opposite of helplessness … getting up and getting it done.”Many of the children “growing up had a strong sense of agency,” says Robertson. This can be enabled by engaging in challenging conversations that may seem a little above your child’s age range. It inspires curiosity and the initiative to seek out information independently.  The book features an anecdote that highlights this key component neatly. It revolves around the son of a v illage doctor from Ghana named, Sangu. Sangu’s mother introduced him to literature very early so that by the age of five, he and his father were already having in-depth philosophical discussions. Instead of dismissing his son’s precocious curiosity, Sangu’s father would implore him to reach out to professionals whenever he had questions that existed outside of his authority.  The two parents effectively instilled a passion for learning and the will to nurture it.At the age of 14, completely of his own fruition, Sangu applied to an academic scholarship in America, saved up some money for a ticket and then alerted his parents promptly after receiving news of his acceptance. While this particular case study highlights an individual of unmistakable precocity, the authors make a point to note that their formula also applies to those that aren’t necessarily academic prodigies. Whatever the child’s skill level, in whatever subject, it’s essential that parents utilize previousl y studied principles to give their children the best shot at success.Defined rolesTo better execute the “formula” Ferguson and Robertson index the eight roles parents should adopt to better foster qualities that lead to achievement: the early learning partner, the flight engineer, the fixer, the revealer, the philosopher, the model, the negotiator, and the GPS.The first five years before kindergarten are particularly vital according to  Ferguson’s and Robertson’s research.  New parents are recommended to introduce activities that promote problem-solving as early as possible. Once aptitude is established it becomes the role of the parents to vigilantly monitor their children to ensure early talents are maximized-only intervening when absolutely necessary. This includes making sure no opportunity is lost because of  lack of resources, particularly opportunities that “matches up well with that child’s interest.”The author’s notion that parents should enlighten their ch ildren to the scope of the world-show them “life’s menu,” introduce them to experts respective to the child’s interest and aspirations.  It’s important to never undermine a child’s ability to think and process information. If the child asks a question that the parent doesn’t know the answer to they should either do their best to find out or introduce them to the resources that might help them better understand together.  This helps in presenting a model for the young child- a standard that advertises a moral compass, a sense of ethics, and the ability to self-advocate.If done correctly, future success stories leave the nest with the echoes of the sentiments previously mentioned preluding important decision-making moments in their lives.You might also enjoy… New neuroscience reveals 4 rituals that will make you happy Strangers know your social class in the first seven words you say, study finds 10 lessons from Benjamin Franklin’s daily schedule that will double your productivity The worst mistakes you can make in an interview, according to 12 CEOs 10 habits of mentally strong people

How to Write a Resume With Little or No Work Experience

How to Write a Resume With Little or No Work Experience How to Write a Resume With Little or No Work Experience Whether youre a student, youve just graduated, or if youve been with one company for a long time, creating a resume when you have little to no work experience can be a challenge. However, though it can seem intimidating, it’s completely possible to catch a potential employer’s eye with or without a great deal of professional experience. Here are three essential job seekertips perfect for new grads, students, and candidates changing their career paths that will help you land the interview without years of experience on your resume. 1. Write a Summary While objectives are a thing of the past, summaries work well for people who have limited work experience. They’re the best place you can explain why you should get the job on your resume, instead of listing an impersonal series of dates and places. All you need to do is write a sentence or two about who you are as a potential employee and any relevant skills or achievements. As well, if you recently graduated from high school or college, mention your new status in your summary. It will help explain why you have limited experience. 2. Highlight Your Skills While you may have little or no work experience to discuss on your resume, you’re sure to have skills that you may have acquired in school or while volunteering that qualify you for the job. One way to highlight them is to break down these skills into individual lists of hard and soft skills for your resume. Draw employers’ attention to these relevant soft and hard skills as a heading and list achievements related to these skills under the appropriate heading. Check out an example of a functional resume here. [sc name=cta-create-resume-1] 3. Don’t Forget Unpaid Work Experience Internships or volunteer opportunities can still count as work experience. If you worked as an intern or volunteered for a significant period of time, include the position on your resume. Since you already listed your skills on your resume, you don’t need to rehash this information when you are listing internships and volunteer work. Just be sure that you mention the company or not-for-profit organization, the months and years you were in the position and your title.See alsoCV vs. Resume Whats The Difference? If you earned any awards specific to one of these positions, it makes sense to list it under the associated position, as well. Even WithLittle to No Work Experience Building a resume when you have limited work experience can be tough, but it’s definitely possible to make it work. Everyone has to start somewhere, but you don’t have to send in a sparse resume when you are new to the job market. Emphasize the hard and soft skills that make you the best person for the job with a resume summary and afunctional resume template.

5 Things Your Boss Wants You to Do at Work - The Muse

5 Things Your Boss Wants You to Do at Work - The Muse 5 Things Your Boss Wants You to Do at Work Your manager can be a mysterious person- one day they’re hot, the next they’re cold (cue Katy Perry). And chances are you’re desperate to do whatever it takes to make them like you more. I have the solution for you! Actually, I liedâ€"I have five! Every boss wants you to do these five things without having to ask- and if you do them regularly, you’re sure to crack their secret code and build a stronger relationship. (Hint: The stronger your relationship, the more likely it is they’ll help you get promotions and raises!) 1. Take the Lead Your boss has a lot on their plate. They don’t have time to handle everything, so they most likely delegate some of their responsibility to you. That’s par for the course. Look at this as your open invitation to run with it without needing their constant oversight and “friendly reminders.” I can almost guarantee they’ll be both impressed and relieved to see you taking charge in meetings, setting agendas, and completing assignments without having to ask. 2. Let Them Know When You’re Struggling But when you’re not comfortable taking the lead on something, or are not sure how, or are struggling to handle the workload, your manager wants you to speak up. Most bosses aren’t evil, which means they don’t enjoy watching others suffer (at least I hope not). But more importantly, they need to know when you’re struggling because it may very well affect them. That deadline you’re about to miss, that project you’re half-assing because you don’t have enough time to spend on it- those results will negatively impact your boss’ to-do list as well their reputation. So, let them know when you’re lost (this template will help)- because then you (and your boss) can fix the problem before it happens. 3. Be on Time and Prepared Your manager probably went over the general gist of what they expect from you when you first started your job, but they shouldn’t have to (and don’t really want to) continue to micromanage you to uphold basic work etiquette. Basically, even though they don’t say it, they really want you to show up to do your day-to-day job responsibilities, in addition to showing up to work on time, coming prepared to meetings, and meeting deadlines. And really, why wouldn’t you if you care about keeping your job? 4. Ask Questions, Push Back When it Makes Sense, and Offer Alternate Solutions Your manager may not say this directly, but they want you to seek out information you don’t know or understand, question projects you’re involved in, and offer solutions. You’re there because they value your input, so don’t be scared to offer it. Trust me: They’d rather know there’s a flaw in their plan on day one, rather than day 100. Just be careful that you’re not questioning everything and pushing back on all your assignments. As Muse writer and leadership expert Jim Morris says: [S]ometimes I’d just like my employees to do what I’ve asked. It’s exhausting (for both of us!) if I have to defend every single decision, plus it makes me feel like you have no faith in my judgment. If you’re still unsure whether it’s a good battle to pick, ask me. Say: ‘Are you open to a different opinion on this?’ and give me the choice of opening it up for discussion. 5. Help Them Better Manage You Finally, your supervisor wants to be good at their job (again, because they’re not evil). Therefore, they want to help you do your best work, because realistically, it makes them look good, too. That means that they’re technically open to feedback. I say technically because in an ideal world, everyone you work with would want to improve and would seek out constructive criticism to make that happen. Alas, that’s not always the case. If you think that your manager would listen, try starting the conversation with this handy email template. If you want a more subtle method, reinforce habits you like. For example, “Thank you for giving me such in-depth feedback on that memo, I found it really helpful and I’d love for you to continue to do that for other projects.” Or, if neither of those seems like the right tactic, you can try subtly managing up and, without having to say anything, train your boss to better manage you. As I said earlier, being proactive with your manager not only leads to more productive and effective collaboration, but tells them you can handle anything on your own- and possibly that you’re a great candidate for a promotion down the line.

6 Tips for Salary Negotiation as a Fresh Graduate

6 Tips for Salary Negotiation as a Fresh Graduate 6 Tips for Salary Negotiation as a Fresh Graduate Salary negotiation can be difficult for anyone, regardless of age. Still, recent graduates seem to be more anxious about it than the previous generation. After several years of un(der)paid internships, any kind of money may seem like a lot. This results in a situation when graduates are happy for having received any kind of offer. Yet, well-handled salary negotiations lead to satisfaction on both sides. Salary negotiation is almost always at least partially successful. Don’t be anxious about it. According to a survey done by the online financial service NerdWallet and the job service Looksharp, fresh graduates tend to be quite shy when negotiating their first salaries. “84% of employers are willing to increase their initial offer by as much as 10%.” Even an entry-level candidate is expected to negotiate. And to be successful at that. The success rate is high. Only 38% recent graduates negotiate their salaries. 84% of employers are willing to increase their initial offers by as much as 10%. Only 10% of employers ever withdrew an offer because a candidate tried to negotiate. 76% of employers consider candidates, who attempt to negotiate,  confident for doing so. Female candidates are less likely to negotiate than their male counterparts. When they attempt to do so, their success rate is similar- about 80%. I cannot stress this enough- do negotiate. The numbers show you can only gain. As a fresh graduate, you cannot use your experience as leverage. Keep in mind good companies are always on a lookout for people who show potential. 6 Tips for  Negotiating Salary Salary negotiations are  not risky. Still, it is not enough to simply ask for a salary increase- you have to do it right. Postpone salary negotiation until you’re offered the job. First, let your potential employer decide whether you’re the right candidate. People are always slightly reluctant to change their previous decisions. Use this to your advantage. Be enthusiastic. Even if the offer is lower than you expected, do not show disappointment. After all, an offer is an offer. Remain positive and always express excitement before you begin to negotiate. Don’t rush it. Unless it’s your dream job, don’t feel the need to accept right away. If you feel pressured, ask to review the offer in writing. You want to make sure you’re making the right decision. Don’t wait too long, though. They want to fill the position as soon as possible. Do your research. Making unreasonable requests does not show you in a favourable light. It’s vital that you know at least an approximate salary range for your position. When in doubt, ask for a 10 percent increase from their initial offer. Be prepared to explain what do you want and why you want it. If possible, explain how it will benefit the company. Do not assume that simply asking for an increase is going to be enough. Always assume the employer is on your side but everyone has their limits. Defend your case but remain thoughtful in doing it. Make your decision. In the end, you will have to decide. If you decide to accept the offer, communicate positive enthusiasm. If not, express gratitude. In either case, you don’t want to close off an opportunity for them to come back with another offer. NB: In some situations, negotiations would be inappropriate or unlikely to succeed. First, jobs in a very structured environment; e.g. government or military jobs. Second, where there’s a large amount of supply, such as an entry-level barista. Share Your Feedback or Ideas in the Comments!

How to Use Online Classes to Help Your Career - The Muse

How to Use Online Classes to Help Your Career - The Muse How to Use Online Classes to Help Your Career It’s something you’ve probably heard a decent amount: “You should take an online class,” “That’s what online classes are for,” “Online courses are a great resource.” But what exactly are you getting yourself into by enrolling? Why exactly is it a useful tool? Is it even worth it? Trust me, you’re not the only one with these questions. That’s why I spoke to real, live people who’ve taken classes before to get the real scoop on what they entail. And what I learned is that they’re more than just worthwhile- they can be complete game changers. But let’s back up and start at the beginning: What Kinds of Classes Are There? There’s an online class for everything. Seriously, you can take courses on understanding how dogs think, mastering meditation, or even how to become a vegetarian (in case you don’t know what that means). But there’s also so many others that are relevant enough to put on your resume (unless, of course, you actually work in those fields). Some sites offer courses in every genre, while others focus on specific skill sets such as software education; or only feature classes from real universities. You can browse full-time and part-time courses, long videos and short clips, and interactive projects and web conversations. Some cost money or charge you monthly, but a lot are free. Overwhelmed? Don’t worry- we’ve already curated the best classes for your career right here on The Muse. We have courses on job searching, finding your passion, building your brand, negotiating an offer, and even ones on marketing, social media, copywriting, public speaking, and programming- all taught by experts and coming from the best online education websites out there. You’re welcome. There Are So Many Options, How Do I Choose One? I don’t think you can go wrong in making your decision. In fact, you could very easily realize that a class you’re taking isn’t what you expected. That’s OK- you don’t have to finish it (this isn’t high school). But with that being said, if you’re spending money and time, you want to put it toward something worthwhile. So, check out reviews by previous students, ask colleagues for recommendations, and read the course descriptions, some of which will have introductory videos available. These are great indicators of whether or not you can connect to the class and the teacher. Who Even Takes Them? Anyone and everyone- recent graduates, career changers, job seekers, managers, CEOs. The bottom line is that everyone has something he or she needs to work on, whether it’s a skill, a side gig, a personal attribute, or a bad habit. Can I Manage One on Top of a Full-Time Job and Social Life? The short answer is yes, yes you can. Your day is what you make it, and if this is important enough to you, you’ll make time for it. Account Executive Kimberly McNally’s currently getting her masters in technology management, on top of her position here at The Muse, and the beauty of taking her courses online is that she didn’t have to quit her day job to do it. But, she states, “You have to be able to make sacrifices. You shouldn’t let areas of your life get altered by it, but of course you’ll have less time to socialize.” Figuring out how to separate school and work takes willpower and drive. She advises that you take a look at your current schedule and see whether or not you can manage your time effectively before you even sign up. But you also have the choice of how much time you want to spend on it- there’s so much flexibility! You can enroll in a full certification program like McNally, or, if you don’t think you’ll have the energy to log in daily, choosing to take individual courses an hour or two a week can be just as effective (without taking up all your free time). Can I Use Them to Help My Job Search? Several people I spoke with told me they definitely helped them connect with their interviewer, and for some, it even landed them the job. As part of his interview process, Muse Content Manager James Mayr met with a member of the engineering team, and because he had taken coding classes, he was able to carry on a great conversation- despite being here for a completely different role. Similarly, Joanne Chevalier, a full-stack engineer, interviewed at The Muse after moving from France, and by providing examples from her online classes, she was able to prove her qualifications to transition from back-end to full-stack. And Jimmy Marsanico, a data scientist, used skills listed in job descriptions as an indicator that maybe he should study up and take a course- just in case that was the make-or-break factor: “After grad school, I took a course in Pandas (which is a tool used in Python-coding for data analysis) to help during my interview process, including my interview here!   It wasn’t something that I used right away at work, nor in my interviews, yet so many job requirements had mentioned it- which is what made me decide to take it in the first place.” Overall, it can only help your job search. When Muse Career Coach Evangelia Leclaire meets with clients who believe they are underqualified for a role, “I tell my clients to not let what you lack limit you from going after what you want.” And online courses are a great start: “Future employers value continuing education and professional development. By enrolling in a relevant course and positioning it within the education section of the resume and in future interviews, you’re demonstrating that you take initiative to improve professionally. Employers love hiring people who are resourceful and who take action to stay ahead of the curve and gain a competitive edge,” states Leclaire. The thing is, just saying “I took so and so course” won’t show you’re qualified. It’s the stuff you learned and created in that class that matter- so focus on that in your resume, cover letter, and interview. And speaking of that… How Do I List the Classes on My Resume? You’ve taken a class and want to show it off to potential employers- great! But where does it go? And how specific should you get when talking about it? It definitely depends on the kinds of classes you took and the jobs you’re applying for. (Read: tailor your resume!) Laurie Pickard, founder of No-Pay MBA, suggests that you “keep the list of courses short, and confine them to a single, small area, such as a “Professional Training” section under your work history.” Also, you don’t need to bother listing introduction courses unless they’re separate from your current role- taking an “Introduction to Python” course will undermine your credibility if your current position is Senior Developer. How Do They Come Into Play When I’m Switching Careers? You know what you’re missing when you’re looking to make a career change- a skill on your resume, a skill in real life, knowledge on a particular topic. Online courses could (at least partially) fill that gap- especially since you’re usually only short a few requirements. But even more so what classes are good at is helping you figure out if you even want to make the change. Or, where you want to go next. You might discover after taking one writing course that journalism isn’t really for you. Or, you might take a social media class, and then another, and then your excitement for it grows and all you want to do is work in marketing. Awesome- now you know you’re ready. Can They Help Me in My Current Job? Editor-in-Chief Adrian Granzella Larssen has a great story on how one experience continues to influence her career. One of the online courses she took was a beauty writing class, and an assignment was to write an article about tweezing your eyebrows without using the words “tweeze” or “eyebrows” more than once. Even today she uses this tactic in anything she writes- being aware of word repetition to craft stronger writing pieces. It’s like high school- your teacher says one thing and it just happens to stick with you for years and years. Learning online’s no different, and the best part is you can pick up any new lesson anytime you want. So if you have some free time, if you want to improve the quality of your work, or if you want to better understand how to use your company’s resources, it might be worth signing up. In short, online classes are pretty darn useful. They won’t guarantee you a job, and they won’t instantly get you that promotion or raise- but if those are your goals, they’re an awesome way to get started on accomplishing that.

How to Ask About Remote Work During a Job Interview

How to Ask About Remote Work During a Job Interview How to Ask About Remote Work During a Job Interview You’ve come across a job opening that sounds perfectly suited to your talents and interests, except for one thing- there’s no mention whatsoever of the option to telecommute. If remote work is really important to you, however, exploring the subject sooner rather than later can be for the best. While the need to ask about remote work during an interview can feel a bit scary, knowing where things stand helps in making educated decisions about your future. Here are some possible ways to ask about remote work during a job interview: Do research. Don’t immediately assume that just because the ad doesn’t highlight flexible arrangements that all hope is lost. While smart employers should realize that touting remote possibilities attracts a stronger candidate pool, some prefer to handle logistics once they’ve settled on who they want. As you scour the company’s website and perform online searches in preparation for your interview, pay particularly close attention to any mention of telecommuting. If you or anyone in your network knows someone who already works there, ask that employee whether or not any of his colleagues work off-site. Finding an example or two provides a good way to approach the issue matter-of-factly during an interview. Try a statement such as, “I noticed in the blog post about the company’s holiday party that some remote workers joined in the fun. Does your department contain any telecommuters?” Be direct, if you can. If remote work is a top priority in your job search and you are willing to wait until you can get it, politely putting the topic on the table can save everyone time. “Ask, ‘Do you support remote work?’” suggests Cali Williams Yost, CEO and founder of Flex Strategy Group. “If they answer unapologetically, ‘Yes, and here’s how that looks,’ then you know it’s available and supported.   If they hesitate and hedge at all, then you know to question the true commitment.” Be indirect, if you must. When you’re in a situation where holding out for a remote option isn’t feasible, proceeding with a bit more caution might be better. “If you really need the job and can’t afford to be picky, then try to figure out whether or not the culture supports remote work in a more indirect way,” Williams Yost says. “For example, ask the question, ‘In your culture, will most of the people I work with be onsite every day or will some be working remotely?’  That way it’s about how you will be expected to work with colleagues and not what you want personally. If they say, ‘We really don’t care where people work as long as they get the job done,’ then you know that chances are you will also be able to work remotely at some point.   If they say, ‘Mostly, we work onsite,’ then it’s clear remote work isn’t happening.” Want to deal from the get-go with employers committed to remote work?
