Here are a few reasons why you should consistently update your resume (even if you are employed). [...]

We may be biased, but establishing and maintaining contact with a trusted recruiter is always a good idea. There is no fee and no obligation to further a search until you see fit – and an unforeseen layoff seems like a great time to start. Here are 5 signs that it may be time for you to contact a recruiter. […]
Being “fashionably late” is an excuse that people who are always late give to make themselves feel better, and it isn’t acceptable to your employer. Unfortunately snoozing your alarm 3 or 4 times and rushing out the door is an easy habit to adopt and a very hard one to break. We are creatures of habit, and we tend to lean toward the solution that gives us the most satisfaction now even if it means difficulty later. It’s easy to think that an extra 5-10 minutes will help you feel more rested, but it won’t. Panic ensues when you’re stuck [...]

An interview is a two-way conversation – use the time wisely. […]
Recent data suggests that the average full-time U.S. employee works over 2,000 hours per year. With so many hours spent working (with the same people), it’s important they’re not miserable.
