Is Your Resume Like a Flag?

Posted on 7 July 2010 | 7:19 pm by admin

There are three kinds of fans that come to a World Cup game. First, there are those who are dressed in plain clothes with no team markings, logos or symbols. If you were to walk past these people on the way into the stadium you would have no idea who they are cheering for. Then there are those who come dressed in their country colours wearing shirts and jerseys with team logos. If you are close enough to read the writing or recognize the flag on their shirt you would know which country they are supporting. However, looking across the stadium at a huge crowd of people these fans are only noticeable in huge sections of similar colours. Lastly, the most recognizable and the easiest to spot in a crowd of screaming fans are those proudly waving a team flag. There is no mistaking these fans and with a quick glance across the stadium, the first thing that catches your eye is a waving flag.

To Contract or Not Contract?

Posted on 7 July 2010 | 7:12 pm by admin

There are several advantages to working as a contract employee. The one most common in the economy today is being able to prove yourself in an opportunity and transition nicely into a full time opportunity. This allows not only you to prove yourself, but also get a feel for the company and see if they are a company you would like to stay with. This also shows the client what you are capable of doing and allows you to show them they want to keep you longer than the contract period.
