If you’re awake for 16 hours a day, half of those hours are spent working.

Those 8 hours at work should be tolerable enough to pay for 8 hours of freedom.

If job post asks for 5 years of experience, and you only have one, still apply.

You never know; you may still be just what they’re looking for.

Your interview attire should be both classy and comfortable.

Don’t wear heels you can’t walk in or a tie you can’t breathe in.

The more confident you feel, the better you’ll do.

PSA: Don’t use a selfie as a LinkedIn profile picture.

We are terrified to take a chance at finding true happiness.

Unhappy with your current position? Change it.

It is still an employees job market; take advantage of it.

If you know you can do the job, apply.

Regardless of the education or experience required. You never know who just might take a chance on you.

If you need time to think about a question, say “that’s a great question” and pause to think. Or say “how do I word this…”

Buy yourself time. It’s ok to pause.

Two kinds of people in the world.

1. The person that sees other people succeed and thinks “it’s all luck/privilege/timing/greed”

2. The person that sees other people succeed and thinks “what can I learn from them so I too can succeed”

[Shannon Agredo @GetThat_Job]

If you’ve done a similar job at different companies, don’t use the same job description for both on your resume.

It makes you look lazy because frankly, it is.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe the person interviewing you is nervous as well?

The best leaders are the reluctant ones. The ones who are thrust into leadership and not those who seek it out or crave it.

The very people who WANT to lead or who desire that power are usually the very people who shouldn’t be placed in that position.

Don’t let the bullet points of your resume be the kill shots to your career.

How many people are so scared of change that they stay at the job they hate for years at a time?

My most valuable work lesson:

It’s ok if your job isn’t your passion.

As long as it’s tolerable and can pay FOR your passion, you’re going to enjoy life just fine.

Don’t get defensive in your interview if you don’t know the answer to a question or if you don’t have a certain skill.

The correct response is, “I’m sorry, I don’t know, but I would be happy to learn more!”.

Did you know? Studies show that the color blue makes one appear more trusting and intelligent.

That’s why so many politicians wear blue especially when campaigning.

Good to know when picking out your next interview outfit.

If you don’t have the experience or skills an employer is looking for, flip the situation and explain how this is an opportunity for them to train you to be EXACTLY the employee they want.

It’s all about perspective.

Umm…make sure the link on your resume ACTUALLY takes you to your LinkedIn page.

Monday Message: always post your resume as a PDF.

This prevents any possible layout changes when it’s downloaded.
