Hub You - Prepare A Winning CV
How often have you heard this one (or said it?): “I don’t like sales, and besides… I’m no good at it.” Most of us have said it, no matter what our industry or profession, steering clear if possible of anything that smacks of sales. We prefer, instead the sweet smell of nearly anything else-- marketing, operations, management, engineering, accounting… anything else! “Just don’t ask me to go out and SELL something. No sir, no way, no thank you, ma’am. That’s just not me.”Well, hold on a minute and take another look, bubba: it darn well BETTER be you! In this Age of Fleeting ‘Permanent’ Employment, none of us can ever again settle back and

American employers have generally been required to carry Workers Compensation Insurance, or provide a suitable alternative coverage for their employees, since the early 1900s. The early benefit employers received from participating in Workers Compensation plans -- a reduction in litigation -- is no longer self-evident. In fact, new causes for litigation addressing job-related illness and injury have risen over the decades.Workers Compensation typically covers three expenses: medical treatment for job-related injuries (they may not have to occur on the job, but each state's laws govern specific criteria) or illnesses, providing for the
Take for example how many large project management companies deal with CV’s and their database of consultants. Advertisements on their websites, in development magazines and in newspapers and other media often call for ‘experienced’ persons to register interest for involvement across various sectors. Some such firms have an online completion process, which facilitates the database search functionality, and others accept traditional CV style submission. It is very unlikely that this CV will be used without modification in a tender submission.
Why?
As introduced, CV’s seldom serve multiple purposes to the same degree of success. Your CV to an organisation to gain registration on their database should be tailored to the requirements of that firm’s request, and for the express purpose of making sure that when they are searching for your expertise they find you. [Remember that last month I wrote about promoting yourself, and made the point that if you only submit a CV, you are probably not doing enough – visibility, communication etc needs also to be incorporated into your strategy].

Few things are more destructive to a career than a boss who is insecure. Unfortunately, it is a near certainty that most people will encounter one or more such persons along the way.“The actions of an insecure boss will eventually create an insecure organization, riddled with anxiety and indecision,” says Ramon Greenwood, senior career counselor at Common Sense At Work.com. “People will spend more time looking over their shoulders than looking ahead. Good defenses become more important than effective offenses.”Seven Traits Of An Insecure BossYou will know your boss is suffering from an insecurity complex when he o

In economics, unemployment refers to the condition and extent of joblessness within an economy, and is measured in terms of the unemployment rate, which is the number of unemployed workers divided by the total civilian labor force. Hence, unemployment is the condition of not having a job, often referred to as being "out of work", or unemployedThe terms unemployment and unemployed are sometimes used to refer to other inputs to production that are not being fully used, for example, unemployed capital goods.The history of unemployment is the history of industrialization.

There is really no wrong way for you to clean a home. But as with any business, time in your cleaning business is valuable. The more cleaning jobs you can fit into a day, the more potential profit you earn. If you can complete the basics faster, then you have more time to offer specialized services or to move on to cleaning the next home.When you start cleaning it is important to not track dirt into rooms that you have already cleaned. It is most productive to start in rooms that are not centrally located - usually the bedrooms and bathrooms and then work your way through the rest of the house. Clean the high traffic areas, including the

Each time your CV is put in for a project, it should be tailored to the exact requirements of that project, including tailored to the selection criteria and with consideration for the other team members to demonstrate breadth and balance within the team.
But, this takes a fair amount of time.
Yes it does! And, it is time that requires input from you, the individual, as well as the firm pulling together the tender submission. Other than the obvious business development imperatives in preparing the best possible CV, we are not being honest to the cause, not taking seriously enough the importance of the project we are tendering for if we do not invest the time to really consider why we have the right team, and how to demonstrate that. The CV is a key tool to demonstrate higher- level understanding of the project’s unique requirements.
So, how do we approach this?
Once you know the format, or requirements, then some basic principles can be followed, including:
• Identify the key selection criteria and ensure the CV specifically addresses and/ or demonstrates achievement against each
• Identify specific role requirements within the project and emphasise relevant examples in the CV
• Consider specific project risks and identify ways to demonstrate through the CV that by choosing this person [team] these risks are nullified
• Identify project key success factors and key outco
