A
resume can either open doors or keep them closed. Never assume that
people are going to read your resume because the fact is that most
resumes get only a passing glance. You must do everything possible to
spark immediate interest during that moment.
Constructing a resume that earns interviews is remarkably simple.
Here are six do's and don’ts to follow when composing your document.
1. Begin with a summary.
Showcase two or three of your most exciting accomplishments. Bullet these items and use numbers to illustrate their extent.
By
starting out this way, you'll be showing people how good you are, not
just telling them that you're good. As a plus, you'll distinguish
yourself from job seekers who begin by listing their functional
specialties and a brief discussion of their strengths.
2. Use a chronological format.
The
next section of your resume relates to your experience. Always list
your experience in reverse chronological order, starting with your most
recent job.
3. Tailor your resume to the job you're seeking.
Because
the goal of your resume is to gain interviews for a particular
position, always cite your activities in order of their importance to
that job. Omit information that's unrelated. The less you say about your
unrelated experience, the more impact the related activities will have.
If
you're seeking two or three different positions, prepare two or three
separate resumes, each tailored to the job you're after.
4. Focus on your accomplishments.
Next,
discuss your accomplishments, not your responsibilities. Recruiters and
prospective employers are primarily interested in the value you've
brought to your past employers. Most important are improvements you made
and their benefit to the department or organization, especially in
increasing revenues or reducing costs.
5. Use descriptive verbs.
Describe
your experiences in phrases that start with a past-tense action word.
Bullet each item. Bullets and verbs in the past tense produce statements
that are more vivid and illustrative. These verbs are particularly
effective:
- directed, led, managed, supervise
- dachieved, delivered, drove, generated, grew, increased, initiated, instituted and launched
6. Make your resume inviting to read.
After
deciding on what you want to say about yourself, be sure your resume
has sufficient white space. The top and bottom margins should be at
least a half-inch long, and the left and right margins should measure at
least seven-tenths of an inch wide.
Insert white
space between your section headings, names of employers, job titles and
discussions about your experience. Use bold-faced type for section
headings, employer names and job titles. If the document lacks eye
appeal, few people will review it.
Now, the Don'ts
What you shouldn't do when writing a resume is nearly as important as what you should do.
1. Don't organize your resume by accomplishments.Listing
a string of accomplishments on the first page of your resume presents
the same problems for employers as the functional resume format. If you
want to showcase your accomplishments, use the introductory summary.
2. Don't use the same words to begin sentences or use the words "I" and "my."Make
your writing fresh and exciting by varying the verbs that begin each
statement. Omit "I" and "my" because they can make you seem weak and
immature.
3. Avoid clichés.Don't
describe yourself as "dynamic," "people-oriented," "results-oriented"
or "self-motivated," or state what a great "out-of-the-box thinker,"
"hands-on leader" or "visionary" you are. These clichés lack originality
and typecast you as a follower instead of a leader.
4. Don't use underlining or italics to add emphasis.These devices cheapen a résumé’s appearance. Additionally, some computer scanners can't read underlined or italicized copy.
5. Avoid using a fancy font to gain readers' attention.Fancy
fonts aren't inviting to read, and many people discard resumes that use
them. Play it safe by choosing Arial, Garamond, Helvetica, Tahoma or
Times Roman.
6. Don't state the reasons for your job changes.Explaining why you've changed jobs seems defensive or indicates that you think you have a troubled work history.
- Nobel Prize resulted from a late change in the will of Alfred Nobel, who did not want to be remembered as a propagator of violence-he invented dynamite.
- Whoopi Goldberg was a mortuary cosmetologist and a bricklayer before becoming an actress..

Does Your Blood Type Reveal Your Personality?
According to a Japanese institute that does research on blood types, there are certain personality traits that seem to match up with certain blood types. How do you rate?TYPE O
You
want to be a leader, and when you see something you want, you keep
striving until you achieve your goal. You are a trend-setter, loyal,
passionate, and self-confident. Your weaknesses include vanity and
jealously and a tendency to be too competitive.
TYPE A
You
like harmony, peace and organization. You work well with others, and
are sensitive, patient and affectionate. Among your weaknesses are
stubbornness and an inability to relax.
TYPE B
You're
a rugged individualist, who's straightforward and likes to do things
your own way. Creative and flexible, you adapt easily to any situation.
But your insistence on being independent can sometimes go too far and
become a weakness.
TYPE AB

Many
parents are understandably worried about their wards’ Internet habits,
fearful that websites with inappropriate content would play havoc with
their children’s view of the world. Apparently, to address these
concerns, Microsoft has released in Beta a Windows Live service, which
aims to give parents control over their children’s web surfing. The new
service has been launched in the US and expected to be eventually
launched in India sometime soon, given the importance of the Indian
market for the software giant.
It’s called
OneCare Family Safety, and aims to provide web filtering and activity
reports. The service was formerly called Family Safety Settings.
According to TechWeb, the filtering feature lets parents chose "allow,
block or warn" settings for a range of content categories. Unique
settings can be applied to each member of the household. Parents can
adjust settings anytime from any Internet-connected PC. Parents can also
access activity reports for each family member, to stay on top of their
children’s web browsing.
Renewed Attack
While
on Microsoft, according to two network security companies, an upswing
in activity related to a potential Windows Server vulnerability dubbed
with a most-dangerous label in early August has been detected.
"That
earlier vulnerability came to light August 8, amid Microsoft’s release
of a dozen security bulletins. These included MS06-040, which patched a
critical vulnerability in Windows’ Server service. At the time, security
analysts warned that the bug might be exploited by a network-attacking
worm, ala MSBlast. Although several exploits appeared, their impact was
minor," says TechWeb.
Now, both Symantec
and the SANS Institute’s Internet Storm Centre alerted users that they
had detected a significant increase worldwide in activity on port 139,
one of the two ports which an exploit against the MS06-040 vulnerability
would use to attack systems.

This
one, I guess, is something you can ask that long-forgotten cousin in
Rochester to send you. The item is a Bluetooth SCALA-Rider FM wireless
communications hands-free headset, developed by Cardo Systems, Inc.
The
Bluetooth headset, according to the company, allows motorcyclists and
other helmet wearers to use their cellphones and enjoy their favourite
FM radio stations. The device fits virtually any motorcycle helmet and
is fully weather protected.
Master Blaster earns Rs 1,163 a minute!
Master Blaster Batsman Sachin Tendulkar earns Rs 1,163 a minute, PM only 57p!!
You
often pay Rs 2.15 per minute when you talk on the cellphone. But have
you ever calculated how much you earn per minute? If you haven’t, then
you can check how you fare in relation to some of the most prominent
names in the country, courtesy Saamna, the mouthpiece of the Shiv Sena.
In
an interesting item in Friday’s edition, Saamna also showed how both
the Prime Minister and the President of India are paupers compared to
some of the richest figures in the country, though the President is a
little better off than the Prime Minister. According to the news item,
topping the list of those who earn in thousands per minute is cricket
king Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin in one minute earns Rs 1,163, Amitabh
Bachchan earns three times less — at Rs 361 per minute. Shah Rukh Khan
earns Rs 247 per minute while indus trialist Mukesh Ambani earns Rs 413
per minute.
The Indian Prime Minister, Dr
Manmohan Singh, earns almost 2,000 times less than Sachin, at 57 paise a
minute, while the President, Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, earns almost 1,000
times less, at Re 1.14 per minute.Saamna has arrived at these figures
this way: Sachin has tied up with an agency for an ad campaign which
pays him Rs 180 crores per annum. Per game he gets Rs 2,35,000 for a
Test series and Rs 2,50,000 if it’s a one-day match. In a year he gets
Rs 61.15 crores, which comes to Rs 1,163 per minute.
"Big B" Amitabh Bachchan
earned Rs 19 crores last year through Cadbury, Pepsi and his superhit
movies, which comes to Rs 361 per minute.In the case of Shah Rukh Khan,
it has been calculated on the basis of his bank balance, which last year
stood at Rs 13 crores, which makes his earnings Rs 247 per
minute.Mukesh Ambani got a salary of Rs 21.72 crores (this does not
include any of his other perks, etc) last year, which puts him at Rs 413
per minute.
Saamna goes on to say that
the Prime Minister, who looks after the economy and affairs of the
country, is very poor compared to these other people. In a year he gets a
salary of Rs 3,60,000, or 57 paise a minute. The President is in a
little better position than the PM, as he earns Rs 6 lakhs a year, or Re
1.14 per minute.
The paper tells its
readers: "After reading this you can know how important it is to
calculate how much you earn per minute. Your day of 24 hours has 1,440
minutes. When you calculate how little you earn, you will be stressed
out and will have to go to a doctor, and you will help to increase his
income!"

For great looking eyes make sure to use powder shadows for a natural
look and an eyeliner pencil for drama at night. Make sure the liner has a
smudge tip at one end to get that smoky eye look. Only line the top of
the eye is you're looking tired. You don't want to bring more attention
to dark circles under the eyes. Neutral tones with a hint of color are
flattering on everybody.
2. For sheen on the eyelids, dab a bit of Vaseline for a pretty reflective quality, as well as moisture.
3. Open up the eye with a gold/beige shimmery high lighter onto the brow bone.
4. Don't throw away cash on an expensive eye makeup remover! Find a pretty glass bottle and fill it with baby shampoo.
5. If your cream eye shadow dries out, use a few drops of water or mineral oil to soften it up again.
6. Potatoes, like cucumbers, will reduce the appearance of dark, under-eye circles. Read more articles at http://www.online-articles.org/beauty/site-map.php
You’re Lips:
1. Use blush as a lipstick, then use clear gloss or lip balm over it. Longer staying power.
2.
Natural ingredients have been used for centuries as makeup: apply beet
juice to lips and cheeks as a stain, or mix it with melted bees wax to
make your own lip balm! Cayenne pepper can plump the lips, but use with
caution!
3. Use eye makeup remover to treat super dry, chapped lips. It's a great nighttime lip treatment! Read more articles at http://www.online-articles.org/beauty/site-map.php
You’re Face:
1.
For a longer lasting foundation try a product with silicone. The
silicone creates a sweat-proof and smudge resistant second skin. For me,
I find it helps with my rosacea because the live yeast extract has
healing powers.
2. A powder bronzer under
blush can really even out skin tone. I dab my brush in the bronzer,
then into the blush and lightly cover my whole face.
3.
For a new bronzer, use a foundation that is two to three shades darker
than your skin tone and apply where you would use your bronzer. In a
pinch you could use a brown eye shadow.

Rules of Flirting...
Rule 1 # Eyes have it all:
Rule 2 # Smile:
Rule 3 # Expose your neck:
Rule 4 # Lip Service:
Rule 5 # Focus, Focus, Focus:
Frankly
speaking flirting is an art and you need special skills to master it.
You do not have to be some beauty queen or a celebrity to make guys fall
for you and go gaga over you. All you need is your gorgeous smile and
few guaranteed flirting tips like the ones you'll find below to attract
the opposite sex.
Rule 1 # Eyes have it all:
Look
in the eyes with the person you're flirting with for a full five to six
seconds, then smile and drop your gaze. Please don't stare at him and
make him feel embarrassed. Just give him a soft smoldering look and look
away. Do this at least three times in a ten to fifteen-minute period.
This way you will make him know that you are interested and
approachable.
Rule 2 # Smile:
Smiling
is absolutely the most effective tool in your flirting toolbox.
Psychology and body language experts agree that one of the most
important things you can do to make yourself more attractive (and
approachable) is to smile.
Rule 3 # Expose your neck:
One
of the most winning flirting techniques a woman can use is the exposure
of her neck. This can be done with a head tilt to one side, the classic
hair flip or the over-the-shoulder glance. According to body language
experts this asymmetrical position attracts attention, exposes your
neck, and makes a woman very attractive and sexy. The over-the-shoulder
move also sends a signal to your target that he is worth a second look.
Rule 4 # Lip Service:
Both
men and women are subconsciously attracted to red, moist lips because
they signal youth, sex and fertility. Always wear a red lipstick which
not only gives your lips that youthful colour, but also makes your smile
more visible and your teeth whiter. A super-shiny lip gloss can also
give you an advantage, making your lips look moist and kissable.
Rule 5 # Focus, Focus, Focus:
Once
you and your flirting target have started talking, use these tips to
deepen the attraction. First, smile and maintain eye contact as you are
speaking, and focus all of your attention on what he is saying. If you
aren't listening then that shows that you are not interested. Smiling
and laughing are crucial here - it's the quickest, easiest way to put
another person at ease and make a connection. Finally, another effective
flirting technique is low-level touching such as brushing the shoulder
or elbow.
"We
forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge. People make mistakes.
We are allowed to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage
will haunt us forever."
Pause and ponder. Think before you act. Be patient. Forgive & forget. Love one
and all.
Never
take some one for granted, Hold every person Close to your Heart
because you might wake up one day and realise that you have lost a
diamond while you were too busy collecting stones." Remember this always
in life.
China's 'Sky Train’ chugging to Tibet – Its Amazing
You may call it the newest Wonder of the World, because it is awe-inspiring to watch. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway, which begins operation today, is like an iron dragon soaring on the Roof of the World. It is rightly called the "Sky Train." The 1,142-kilometer railway, which took four years to complete, is the last section of the 1,956-km Qingzang (Qinghai-Tibet) Railway from Xining to Lhasa, respectively the capital of Qinghai and Tibet. The first section, from Xining to Golmud, has been in operation since 1984.
Tickets
for the inaugural run, from Beijing to Lhasa, were sold out a couple of
hours after they were put for sale on Wednesday. For many people, the
trip is one to Wonderland.
It is the
world's highest railway. Most parts of the new track from Golmud to
Lhasa are located more than 4,000 meters above sea level, with the
highest points at 5,072 meters. Construction of the US$5.5 billion
railway was difficult because of the formidable challenge of frozen
tundra, thin air and environmental protection.
It's
nothing short of a miracle that these problems were overcome. Now,
Tibet, which sits on the roof of the world, is no longer an isolated
Shangri-la. It is integrated into the rest of the world culturally,
socially and economically. It is estimated that nearly 3,000 passengers
will arrive in Lhasa each day by train equipped with sealed, oxygenated
cars manufactured by Canada's Bombardier Inc. Tibet will never be the
same with the operation of the Sky Train -- the first railway to one of
China's Autonomous Regions.
It goes
without saying that the railway will "hugely boost local development and
benefit the local people," as Beijing claims, but it is also true that
this strategically-situated region on mainland China's southwest border
will come under closer and tighter control of Beijing. More Han people
outside Tibet will move to the region dominated for centuries by
Tibetans who had enjoyed de facto independence before its "liberation"
in 1950 by Mao Zedong's People's Liberation Army.
"Sky
Train" is not an ordinary railway. It is going to bring changes in
Tibet that will benefit indigenous Tibetans. Beijing's influence over
the region and its neighboring areas, including India, Nepal and Bhutan,
will increase. India, in particular, could become a closer ally of
China in a new world order following the rise of China and India.
Mainland
China's infrastructure buildup in the past two decades is stunning. It
took only four years to build the Sky Train, the new wonder of the
world. Or look at the Three Georges Dam, which is bound to become
another wonder on this planet. Or the 32.5 kilometer Donghai bridge near
Shanghai, the world's longest sea-crossing bridge. New York Times'
Pulitzer prize-winning columnist Nicholas Kristof has noted that the
crane is everywhere in China and it has become the country's "national
bird."
Here in Taiwan, there has been no
significant construction project since the completion of the 10 Major
Projects more than 20 years ago. Except, of course, the just-dedicated
12.9 km Snow Mountain Tunnel, which took 15 years to build. The
situation in Taiwan today seems like the mainland's Cultural Revolution
in the 1960s, while the mainland today is similar to Taiwan's in the
1970s when miracles were created one by one. It's sad to note that the
situation is now reversed.

Let's face it - English is a crazy language.
There
is no egg in eggplant, nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in
pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries
in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet,
or meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes,
we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a
guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And
why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't
groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't
the plural of booth, beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese?
One index, 2 indices? Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but
not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all
but one of them, what do you call it?
If
teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats
vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? Sometimes I think all the
English speakers should be committed to an asylum for the verbally
insane. In what language do people recite at a play and play at a
recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and
feet that smell?
How can a slim chance
and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are
opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in
which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a
form by filling it out and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.
English
was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity
of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all That is why,
when the stars are out, they are visib le, but when the lights are out,
they are invisible.
PS. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"
You lovers of the English language might enjoy this .
There is a two-letter word that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that is "UP."
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP ? At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP a report ?
We call UP our friends. And we use it to brighten UP a room, polish UP the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and some guys fix UP the old car. At other times the little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses. To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.
And this UP is confusing: A drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP . We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.
We seem to be pretty mixed UP about UP! To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP, look the word UP in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4th of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions. If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP , you may wind UP with a hundred or more. When it threatens to rain, we say it is clouding UP. When the sun comes out we say it is clearing UP.
When it rains, it wets the earth and often messes things UP.
When it doesn't rain for awhile, things dry UP.
One could go on and on, but I'll wrap it UP , for now my time is UP, so........... Time to shut UP.....!
Oh...one more thing:
What is the first thing you do in the morning & the last thing you do at night? U-P
Amazing Facts: You Can Beat The Competition By Raising Prices!
Hey, that got your attention! You’re probably sitting there with a raised eyebrow, and thinking... “Yeah, right!" Everybody knows that you have to have the best prices in town to be competitive... or do they?
Think
about this... when you go to a Ford dealership mechanic do you expect
to pay more than if you take it to the repair shop on the corner? Of
course you do. Why? Because the mechanics are specialists at the
dealership. They specialize in the type of cars they sell, and know
their stuff!
When you become a
specialist, people expect to pay more and feel like they are getting
more value for their money. They trust the specialist to understand
their needs. Now for the big question... How can you become a
specialist? Here are 3 easy steps to becoming an expert in your field.
1. Divide your market
Take
a good look at your market. How many pockets within your customer
population can you find? You’ll be surprised at the number of niches you
can target. You'll find ethnic groups, different age groups, varied
groups of income, singles, married couples, families, grandparents...
the list could go on and on. Once you spot the pockets, decide which
group or groups you want to target.
2. Learn
Once
you discover the pockets within your customer population, take the time
to learn what their special needs and desires are. Dig deep, and really
get to know them. Learn to speak their language, so to speak.
The
best place to start understanding them is simply by asking them why
they buy your products. What do they like best about it? Why do they
choose your place of business? You’ll get straight answers right from
the source, and gain amazing insight as well.
3. Revise Your Advertising Campaign
Once
you’ve earned the right to speak to them on their level, redesign your
advertising campaign to reach out to them. The changes don't have to be
drastic, but be sure to use the language of the group you are aiming
for. Let them know you understand and desire to meet their special
needs.
Let’s face it... there will always
be competitors and competition. There’s just no getting around it, but
you really don’t have to lower your prices to compete with them. Not
when you are the expert in your field and your customers are trusting
you to have the answers.

Amazing Facts about "The Domain Name Industry"
Here are some thought provoking, perhaps even amazing & unbelievable facts about the domain name industry - and they're all true!!
A single individual owns over 200,000 domain names!
This
is an astonishing but true story: Dr. Lieven P. Van Neste owns well
over 200,000 domain names. He has been in the media several times
regarding his collection - and most recently has been making waves with
his attempts to sell off his collection at truly fire-sale prices via
Afternic and other third party brokers.
The highest publicly reported domain name earned the domain name's owner $7.5 million!
Business.com
was sold for $7,500,000 to eCompanies, a business incubator. The
company promptly went out and secured over $60 million in venture
capital funding, so all things are relative... Note that many sales,
particularly high-value ones, go unreported - so this is only the
highest publicly known sale.
Technically,
you might also consider the $50 million paid by DotTV, inc. to the
island nation of Tuvalu for the rights to the ".tv" top-level domain
space as the most expensive domain name transaction ever!
There is a top-secret discussion board where key domain players exchange inside information!
For
obvious reasons, I am not going to provide details! Let me just say
this: the discussion board does exist, and it counts some of the most
powerful domain name owners in the world (judging by their domain
portfolios) among its members.
Every single 3-character .com domain name has long since been registered!
There
are over 50,000 possible 3-character .com domain names (counting a-z,
0-9 and the "-" character). Every one of these has long since been
registered; most 3-character .com domains fetch 3 to 4 figure prices at
auction.
This is one of the most common
questions surrounding domain names, asked on bulletin boards and in chat
rooms with almost alarming regularity. The short answer is almost
always: "Not as much as you think!" - but there is more to this issue
than meets the eye.
Every single "all a's" domain name from a.com to aaa..aaa.com (63 characters) has been registered!
I
have no idea who would want them, but every .com domain name from 1 to
63 characters long, consisting entirely of the letter "a", has been
registered.

The question is: WHO KEEPS FISH?
Solution: Solve this and be among 2%
Sorry, this ones for you. First try to solve it on paper, and then once when you have solved it, Just put a comment !!!
Step #1
The
first impression. Before you approach a girl or women, you need to know
a few obvious formalities. Be clean - be sure you are wearing
attractive cologne, clean clothes, and fresh breath. Woman notice the
smallest details, so bad breath or B.O . will be one of the first
impressions of you and you don't want that. Depending on what kind of
girl you want to go after, you should always wear clean, fitting
clothes; stains or overlarge clothes are a indication of what kind of
lifestyle you live and you want to give her the best impression
possible. Right before you approach her, you should put your confident
but not cocky and witty but not corny cap on because that is the next
thing that girls will be attracted to after your looks.
Step #2
The
Actual Date. Be a gentleman, open the door for her, take her coat and
be considerate. This will be an indication to her that you care about
her and that you know how to treat a woman. Take her out somewhere where
both of you enjoy going. Having the same common interests is important
in a relationship because you will be able to hold a conversation on a
topic you and her agree on. This way you will avoid fights.
If
you are taking her out somewhere to eat, split the price in half
between the two of you since this is your first date. By doing this, she
will realize that she is an equal to you. If she is one that is very
'high class', pay the bill but next time offer to split the bill because
if you don't, she might think of you as 'the supplier'. Try to hold
conversation and let her talk about herself.
Ask
questions about her career, school or personality, woman love to talk
about themselves, simply because they know themselves the best! Don't
mumble, make sure to speak clearly because that might be a sign of an
insecurity. If you guys have a conversation where both you of enjoy it,
it is a sure way to make plans for your next date. Which brings me to my
next point.
Step #3
Conclusion
of the date. If she is smiling and giving good body language, you might
be in for a next date. If you guys were different and different
opinioned, it might be a sign to look for another girl. Ask her directly
if she would like to go out with you again and if she is making
excuses, she isn't interested, but if she responds positively, get her
number and plan a next date.
So Guys NJoy ur Date
Good Luck
