Five everyday practices to boost your confidence

Five everyday practices to boost your confidenceFive everyday practices to boost your confidenceI often bristle at people who say women lack confidence in the workplace. Part me thinks its a thinly-veiled form of victim-shaming that puts all the blame of our patriarchal systems and structures on women themselves.But theres no denying it being seen as someone who feels confident in their own skin is a big part of managing your image. And while theres nothing wrong with being doubtful, too much self-doubt can hinder your ability to take risks, try new things, and grow.So if cultivating confidence is something youre working on now, here are 5 easy steps to departure1. PrepareAs Brad the boo always says, practice how you want to play.Nobody is born feeling confident in their innate abilities. We all have to work hard to hone our craft, whether its public speaking, programming, or leading a team. So when youre feeling that nervousness that comes with rising to the occasion and trying some thing new, the more hours you spend practicing and preparing, the more confident youre going to feel when its game time.Ive spent the last 5 years really honing my craft asa public speaker, and it truly doesnt look all that glamourous. Most of the time its just me, pacing back and forth, alone in my hotel room, standing in front of a mirror, and recording myself speaking. Then Ill play back the tape, listen and watch for whats working, and try again while eliminating what wasnt.Set aside dedicated time for focused preparation and youll feel so much more confident in whatever youre tackling next.2. Phone a friendI was recently brought in to help a national firm with sexual harassment training. Now Ive done a lot of training and development focused on gender at work in the past, but this particular subject matter was a stretch opportunity for me. So instead of subscribing to that fake it till you make it approach, that can sometimes leave you feeling a bit out of your league, I brough t in a trusted friend, and fellow training and development expert.Its not only better for me, but its in the best interest of my client to bring another persons experience and background into this particular project.When youre expanding your own skillset, it doesnt hurt to bring in some outside reinforcement. Butyouhave to take the initiative to seek out that kind of support. Whether its a phone call to a friend or colleague whos been around the block before, or a more formal partnership with some one who can help deliver on your objectives, its important to remember we dont need to go it alone.And sometimes its as simple a phoning a friend for the pep talk you need to recognize that you already have what you need within you.3. Dress the partI used to be a bit fashion agnostic. I would rather focus on the substance of what Im doing, Id argue, than the style with which Im doing it. But I was missing the point of dressing up. Its not so much for others, but looking put together is mor e about how you feel about yourself.I recently sat down with one of our Bossed Up Trainer Team members, Tiffany Ingram of thePolicy Fashion blogto talk throughhow to dress for work this themaon the Bossed Up blog. She reminded me that looking your best can help you feel your best, too.When Im having an off day, changing out of my yoga pants for a more polished and professional look gives me a boost of swagger that helps me bring my A-game to whatever the day calls for.4. Power poseSimilarly, how I carry myself matters, too. Amy Cuddy pioneered research around power posesthat shows people feel more confident when theyre in an expansive body position. Sitting or standing tall, with your shoulders back and chin held high not only makes others see you as more powerful, it can makeyousee you as more powerful, too.On the contrary, more closed-in, constricted body positions can leave you feeling less confident. Now this is a major when we think about how gender affects body position, too. As little girls, if were conditioned to shrink ourselves, cross our legs, and keep our hands folded in on ourselves, were feeding into a stereotype about femininity and powerlessness.Take up more space, and ironically, youll start to feel more entitled to that space, too. So before your next big meeting, presentation, or interview, assume a high-power body position for at least 2 minutes (preferably in front of a mirror), and youll walk in with an extra kick of confidence.5. Brainstorm a brag sheetWhen youre feeling anxious and unsure of yourself, a million reasonswhy yourenotcut out for the task at hand might be flooding through your mind.Ive never done this before.Im such a fraudIm not qualified.Take control over the voice in your head by focusing instead on the reasons why youareequipped to give this a try.Ive been working on this project more closely than anyoneIm setting aside time to figure this out.Im the only here with an MBA.Whatever it is, take control of the narrative in your head, starting with brainstorming a brag sheet listing out your past achievements and strongest characteristics. In other words, its about focusing your attention on the reasons why youre awesome, capable, and can totally handle curveballs that will come your way.Now if youre feeling so self-conscious that even beginning this kind of an exercise feels impossible, enlist the support of your friends and colleagues, who might be even better able to remind you of your strengths. Once youve got them written out, refer back to your brag sheet whenever youre feeling out of your league to remind you of how far youve come already.This article first appeared on Bossed Up.

No Problem. Is a Problem

No Problem. Is a Problem No Problem. Is a Problem Welcome to President Bush, Mrs. Bush, and my fellow astronauts.- former Vice President, Dan Quayle, who was leid an astronaut CHOICES/Image Michael MoffaOne gauge of the state of manners and civility in modern professional and partal life is the ritualized expressions- both verbal and non-verbal- that characterize our interactions. The triumph of the expression no schwierigkeit over youre welcome is one such barometer of our changing social and (un)civil climate. As such, it constitutes a warning of social clouds overhead.Ask Your GrandmotherThere once was a time when if someone said, Thank you, the natural and virtually universal reply would have been youre welcome. Check with your grandmother to confirm this. In the highest-levels of professional or formal interaction, this is probably still the norm. Likewise, among non-native English speakers, who generally learn the most polite English from their formally-trained instructors, y oure welcome prevails, despite their fondness for the too casual gonna (going to).But ask yourself whether your typical response or the one you hear most often among recruiters, between recruiters and candidates or between recruiter and client is youre welcome, or no problem.In all likelihood, quite accustomed to saying or hearing no problem, most people wont give it a first or second thought. Its as natural as put a shrimp on the barbie, mate is in Australia- even if no prawblem conceivably may have not originated there.You enter any shop or store, you pay for your purchase and say, Thank you. If the assistant, clerk or Star Bucks barista is under 40 (as they all seem to be at any Star Bucks Ive been in around the world), it is as predictable as saggy pants on a rapper that youll hear no problem in response.The problem with no problem is that it is absolutely the wrong thing to say- including for recruiters.The Problem with No ProblemWhats wrong with it is that it distorts thank yo u into Im sorry. Think about it Thank you- No problem you didnt cause me any or much trouble or inconvenience. (Giving you my money inconvenienced you?) Or, No problem just dont do it again. (Dont buy another Super Mocha Grande?) Or, No problem it wasnt important, anyway. (Ah, my business is unimportant?) Or, No problem no big deal for me. (My patronage doesnt matter?)- the latter being subtly different from It wasnt important, anyway. These are not responses to expressions of appreciation. They are responses to an apology for wrongdoing.Now, imagine saying no problem to a client who has just said thank you for your candidate search and recommendations. If you are younger, rather than older, you may be at risk of saying no problem as a reflex, like Im like., since its part of the MTVocabulary (not to be confused with empty vocabularyor at least not by anyone who speaks MTV).Whenever I elicit a no problem, I cringe and think, Im sorry, but did I just apologize to you, instead of than king you? If I do say, Im sorry, but did I just apologize to you?, then no problem ironically becomes the appropriate reply to me, since, indeed, I will have just expressed a real apology at that moment (for having confused thanks with Im sorry). My bad.Of course, no problem is supposed to be casual, non-formal, just as its OK is. The problem with this equivalence is that its OK should also be used only in response to an apology. Im sorry Im late.- No problem/Its OK. Besides, why should being casual legitimize such a mismatch of remark and reply?The Problems of Illogic and Being Ill-ManneredPerhaps the evolution of such an accusatory acknowledgement as no problem is the result of flawed MTV logic Casual is good. Therefore non-polite is good. Therefore impolite is good. This kind of thinking clearly underlies about 95% of the taunting banter between adolescent males who otherwise call themselves friends Yo doofus, wus up?They can get away with that illogic you cant- unless you are re cruiting mall-rat saggy-pants teenagers for executive posts.Another possible explanation for the displacement of thank you by no problem is that those who say no problem really do feel annoyed, inconvenienced or otherwise negative about the person thanking them and are letting their true feelings leak out- in the culturally driven spirit and priorities of authenticity, being oneself or integrity that have similarly and generally displaced courtesy, politeness, respect and sensitivity (sensitivity of the second kind, viz., altruistic, rather than the currently more common hyper-sensitivity to umbrage).If I were in a recruiting situation in which I actually harbored such negative sentiments, I would resist the temptation to let my feelings leak so casually. No, instead of no problem, I would say in response to thank you, This is not an issue. (Just kidding.)The Wisdom of Robert Downey, JrA third hypothesis is suggested by Oscar-winning actor Robert Downey, Jrs response when asked in a n interview how he would characterize American youths. His answer fearful narcissists. As an intriguing speculation, his characterization suggests that no problem may be designed to convey two things- first, that the stance or attitude of the thanked was actually defensive, borderline fearful, in expecting some huge imposition second, that self-absorption makes the thanked party oblivious to any pleasure in being helpful- the kind of pleasure youre welcome ritualistically or sincerely conveys.For the fearful narcissist, youre welcome sends entirely the wrong message, on two counts, viz., it is an existentially inauthentic lie to suggest that the thanked party actually felt comfortable in being asked for help and a second lie that he or she is truly happy to have made someone else happy.With that cleared up, if you want to thank me for my analysis, go ahead. My response?Ill be thankful if there were no problems with it.

How to Use Emotional Intelligence to Network

How to Use Emotional Intelligence to NetworkHow to Use Emotional Intelligence to NetworkIn your job search arsenal, you should have a really great resume, a creative (and customizable) cover letter, and an awesome interview suit.But what about networking know-how? Even if you feel meh about it, networking is a great way to establish new contacts, rekindle older ones, and potentially open doors to new possibilities- and a job.Assuming, that is, that youre likable.According to the Fast Company story, Do These 5 Emotionally Intelligent Things Within 5 Minutes of Meeting Someone, it turns out that showing up to networking events isnt enough- you have to be likable, too. This ability to create deeper connections (even within minutes of meeting someone) is called emotional intelligence, and its something that anyone can benefit from. After all, a likable connection might be mora likely to help you in your job search than someone whoisnt.Build a strong network connection using emotional int elligence in these waysDont curb your enthusiasm.When meeting a new person, dont just shake their hand in a detached manner and mumble a hello. The emotionally intelligent will open themselves up to new connections with a more enthusiastic greeting, including a warm handshake and eye contact. They will also open themselves up to meeting new people- literally. Straighten out your posture by opening up your chest and standing more broadly its more welcoming than someone who is hunched, or fails to look a person in the eye.Be complimentary.Within the first few minutes of meeting someone, if you feel that you can compliment the person, you should. It shouldnt be forced or fake, but be open to finding genuine and honest ways to make the person feel good.Ask questions.Being a good listener is a cornerstone of being emotionally intelligent. And while you might think that meeting an important new connection would warrant you talking about yourself in the hopes of solidifying help down the r oad, it actually works the opposite way. Take a few minutes to simply listen to the other person- and really remember what theyre saying. No fidgeting with your phone or looking for the nearest exit. Listening to what someone has to say can be more meaningful to someone than if you try to interject every few seconds with your own opinions.Dig deeper.As you hold conversation with someone, dont just ask yes or no questions. Instead, ask questions that require longer answers, especially on a topic that your potential connection finds interesting. This canlead to people liking you more if theyfeel that you are taking a genuine interest in them and their likes. In turn,your networking efforts can be more fruitful.Make the connection.To truly establish a connection with someone, youre going to have to look for common ground. It might be something as simple as liking the same football team, having the same alma mater, or even having the same number of kids. But try hard to find a way to fo ster a deeper connection with the person. Look to see what the person finds interesting (physical cues such as becoming more expressive or smiling more as he speaks are good ones to watch out for), and then see which ones match your own interests.Know their name. Theres no point in taking the time to establish a connection, only to forget the persons name right before parting ways. One way to remember the persons name is to repeat it immediately upon your introduction, and then learn to sprinkle it naturally into your conversation. And when youre about to leave, you can say something like, It was great to meet you, John. Lets be in touch soon. Just saying someone elses name can make you more likable, which in turn, ups your chances of solidifying the connection.Dont forget the details.Lets say that your new connection talks about his new baby girl, or the fact that hes just recently moved to the burbs. When you follow up with the person, be sure to touch on those topics, which can a utomatically make you much more likable than if you just reached out asking for career advice.Being emotionally intelligent isnt just something that can help you be a better job seeker, but an overall better person, too. So the next time you hit a networking event, connect to your emotional intelligence, which will help you connect better to others as well.

The Purpose of a Cover Letter In your cover letter its important to convey how your character, interests, motivations, know ledge, skills and experiences equip you to excel in the job.This is your opportunity to show the employer why youre a strong candidate for the position and should be considered. Here aretips for matching your qualifications to the job. What Not to Include in a Cover Letter However, there is such a thing as too much information when it comes to cover letter writing. Your cover letter should be short, concise and focused on what you can offer the employer. You dont need to share non-relevant information, personal information or anything else that doesnt connect you with the position for which youre applying. Your letter should avoid making the wrong impression about your candidacy.Furthermore,it shouldnt provide useless information that makes it more difficult for the recruiter to focus on your most compelling qualifications.Here are 15 things not to include in your cover letter. 1. Any Spelling or Grammar ErrorsYour cover letter is viewed as a sample of your ability as a writer a nd evidence of your attention to detail. Even a minor typo or error can knock you out of contention for the job.Review these proofreading tipsto make aya your letters are perfect. Even better, if you can get someone else to review it for youthen do that too. It can be hard to catch our own mistakes. 2. The Wrong Company Name or the Wrong Name of the Contact PersonDouble-check to be sure that youve addressed your cover letter to the correct person at the right organization. If you get it wrong, it is a tip-off that you are mass producing your documents and may lack attention to detail. Nobody likes it when they are called by the wrong nameand thats especially true when youre reading letters from someone who wants you to hire them. 3. Anything That Isnt TrueFacts can be checked and lies are grounds for rescinding offers and dismissing employees.Ive heard from job seekers who were in a panic because they stretched the truth or outrightlied in their cover letter or resumeand didnt know how to rectify it. You dont want to be one of those people. Make sure your cover letter accurately reflects your qualifications for the job. Dont embellish your work history or qualifications. Employers can and do check with references and previous employers. 4. Paragraphs That Are Too LongEmployers will skip over your cover letter and move right to your resume if it is too difficult to read. Each paragraph of your letter should include 5 - 6 lines of text with no more than three sentences in each.Include plenty of white space at the top and bottom of your letter and in between paragraph. Hereshow long a cover letter should be. 5. Your Salary Requirements or ExpectationsDont include salary requirements or expectations unless directed to do so by the employer. Its important to demonstrate to the employer your interest in the job itself and not make it seem like money is your primary motivation. Its always wise to let the employer mention salary first, if possible. Hereswhen and how t o mention salaryto a prospective employer. 6. Negative Comments About a Current or Past EmployerAvoid including any negative comments about your current or previous employer as part of why you are looking for work. Employers tend to view such comments as an indication of possible attitude or performance problems. Keep your letter positive and focused on why youre the right person for the job. 7. Information Not Related to the JobDont include any text that is not directly related to your assets for the position or why it appeals to you. Empty language can distract the employer from your core messages.Its better to write a short letter than one filled with irrelevant information. 8. Personal InformationThe employer doesnt need to know you want this job because of personal reasons. Keep your focus on the professional reasons youd love to be hired, and keep the personal ones to yourself. Your goal is to sell yourself to the hiring manager as a quality candidate, not to get someone to co nsider you because you would really love the employee discount or the hours, for example. 9. Any Portrayal of the Position as a Stepping StoneMost employers will be looking primarily for someone who is motivated to do the job that they are advertising for a reasonable length of time. Mentioning future advancement can lead them to believe you would not be satisfied doing that job for long. The exception, of course, would beif the employer has referenced the issue. 10. What You WantDont mention what you want to get out of the job or the company. The precious space in your cover letter should focus on what you have to offer the employer. Heres what to include in thebody section of your cover letter. 11. What You Dont WantDont mention anything you dont like about the job, the schedule, the salary or anything else. Save your thoughts for when youre offered a job and in a position to negotiate. There are many applicants for most jobs, and the ones who get the interviews will be the candid ates who dont have a list of requirements. 12. Qualifications You Dont HaveAddressing what might be missing in your candidacy with statements like Despite my lack of abverkauf experience... is not a good idea. Dont draw attention to your limitations as a candidate. Keep the focus on your credentials and how they will enable you to get the job done. 13. Explanations for Leaving Past Jobs Which Sound Like ExcusesAny excuses may needlessly direct attention to less-positive chapters in your work history. Pointing out that you were recruited for a better job is fine, but theres no need to mention that you were fired or had difficulties in previous positions. 14. Excessive Modesty or Overly Flattering LanguageYou need to convey positives in your letter but do so in a matter-of-fact way.Speak about accomplishments and results but avoid using adjectives to describe yourself thatmaysuggestyou are arrogant or conceited. 15. An Overwhelming Amount of Interest in the JobExcessive interest can hint of desperation or undercut your leverage for salary negotiation. Youre pitching your candidacy, not begging for an interview. Showing desperation is a surefire way to turn off the hiring manager. What to Include in a Cover Letter Keep in mind that your cover letter has one goal to get you a job interview. Take time tomatch your qualificationscarefully to the job requirementsand towrite a personalized cover letterthat shows the hiring manager, at a glance, why youre a terrific candidate.

4 Vocal Traits That Keep You from Getting Hired

4 Vocal Traits That Keep You from Getting Hired My wife is a brilliant woman, in spite of having married me. She has two masters degrees (exactly two more than I have), but was having trouble getting hired and then promoted. Why? Shes a non-native speaker, and herbei accent was holding her back. She took apublic speaking course tailored to non-native speakers. It worked on her accent and, just as important, her inflection. Its too soon to see if the results have paid off for her professionally, but I have noticed her public speaking has improved.Why relate this anecdote? A Fast Company story on Four Speech Habits that Are Undermining Your Job Choices specifically dealt with the problem of inflection.Not only how you talk, but also the way you say it, can hurt you in a job interview. As Fast Company points out, uptalk is a problem, like, you know? Or as they observe, You might know this as Valley g irl speak, but its creeping into Silicon Valley boys clubs, too.According to the BBC, men and women both are increasingly guilty of ending statements with the inflection of questions. It sounds insecure, and it can keep people from taking you seriouslyThe BBC article says the findings were presented as part of a study at the Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America in California. Claire Nance, a linguistics lecturer at Lancaster University, commented to the BBC that the research reinforced the fact that uptalk was increasingly widespread across all kinds of people. Typically, women are trail-blazers in language change and take up innovative features first, then males start using them later.So neither a Valley Girl nor Valley Boy be. It can only hurt your career advancement or hiring prospects.The next phenomena is called vocal fry, and I have to admit it was one I had never encountered before. According to the Fast Company article, vocal fry is the creaking, drawn-out tone that emerges when speaking below your normal register. It affects first impressions for both men and women.Fast Company links to audio files with examples. Once you hear them you will know exactly what vocal fry is. It also has a scientific name glottalization.The article cites research in PlosOne, an international, peer-reviewed, open-access, online publication. It says, In a large national sample of American adults we find that vocal fry is interpreted negatively. Relative to a normal speaking voice, young adult female voices exhibiting vocal fry are perceived as less competent, less educated, less trustworthy, less attractive, and less hirable. The negative perceptions of vocal fry are stronger for female voices relative to male voices. These results suggest that young Americexprean females should avoid using vocal fry speech in bestellung to maximize labor market opportunities.The next bad habit is pitch problems. The article succinctly addresses the pitch you should achieve more Jam es Earl Jones (This is CNN) and less Gilbert Gottfried, former pitchman for AFLAC.The final speaking error that torpedoes job interviews and promotions is bad grammar. The article quotes Diane DeResta, who says, The interviewer may question your education when you use incorrect grammar or slang. Expressions such as aint, she dont, and me and my friend arent appropriate. Be sure you speak in complete sentences and that tenses agree. The interview is not the venue for regional expressions or informality.Add to that list my personal pet peeve saying axe Im writing phonetically instead of ask. Im trying to get my goddaughter to drop it from her lingo. Shes only 10, so Im hoping I succeed before she hits the job market.

Top 5 Medical Technology Innovations

Top 5 Medical Technology Innovations Top 5 Medical Technology Innovations Top 5 Medical Technology InnovationsAgainst the backdrop of health care reform and a controversial medical device tax, medical technology companies are focusing more than ever on products that deliver cheaper, faster, more efficient patient care. They are also making inroads with U.S. Food Drug Administration regulators to re-engineer the complex review and approval process for new medical devices.Just for You in 2019Six Lean Principles for an Industry 4.0 WorldMany in the industry have long felt overly burdened by what they consider to be an unnecessarily complex approval process. Critics claim it impedes innovation and delays the availability of better health care. To change that perception, the FDA belastung year announced a new Medical Device Innovation Consortium (MDIC) charged with simplifying the process of designing and testing new technologies.

Image MelaFind.com1. Cutting Back on Melanoma BiopsiesWith the most deadly form of skin cancer, melanoma, a huge number of dangerous-looking moles are actually harmless, but has always been impossible to know for sure without an invasive surgical biopsy. Today dermatologists have new help in making the right call a handheld tool approved by the FDA for multispectral analysis of tissue morphology. The MelaFind optical scanner is not for definitive diagnosis but rather to provide additional information a doctor can use in determinin g whether or not to order a biopsy. The goal is to reduce the number of patients left with unnecessary biopsy scars, with the added benefit of eliminating the cost of unnecessary procedures. The MelaFind technology (MELA Sciences, Irvington, NY) uses missile navigation technologies originally paid for the Department of Defense to optically scan the surface of a suspicious lesion at 10 electromagnetic wavelengths. The collected signals are processed using heavy-duty algorithms and matched against a registry of 10,000 digital images of melanoma and skin disease.The ATI Neurostimulator from Autonomic Technologies. Image ATI-SPG.comAlso for you 5 Innovative Medical Technologies for 20182. Electronic AspirinFor people who suffer from migraines, cluster headaches, and other causes of chronic, excruciating head or facial pain, the take two aspirins and call me in the morning method is useless. Doctors have long associated the most severe, chronic forms of headache with the sphenopalatine g anglion (SPG), a facial nerve bundle, but havent yet found a treatment that works on the SPG long-term. A technology under clinical investigation at Autonomic Technologies, Inc., (Redwood City, CA) is a patient-powered tool for blocking SPG signals at the first sign of a headache. The system involves the permanent implant of a small nerve stimulating device in the upper gum on the side of the head normally affected by headache. The lead tip of the implant connects with the SPG bundle, and when a patient senses the onset of a headache, he or she places a handheld remote controller on the cheek nearest the implant. The resulting signals stimulate the SPG nerves and block the pain-causing neurotransmitters.The Symphony tCGM biosensor from Echo Therapeutics. Image EchoTX.com3. Needle-Free Diabetes CareDiabetes self-care is a painliterally. It brings the constant need to draw blood for glucose testing, the need for daily insulin shots and the heightened risk of infection from all that po king. Continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps are todays best options for automating most of the complicated daily process of blood sugar management but they dont completely remove the need for skin pricks and shots. But theres new skin in this game. Echo Therapeutics (Philadelphia, PA) is developing technologies that would replace the poke with a patch. The company is working on a transdermal biosensor that reads blood analytes through the skin without drawing blood. The technology involves a handheld electric-toothbrush-like device that removes just enough top-layer skin cells to put the patients blood chemistry within signal range of a patch-borne biosensor. The sensor collects one reading per minute and sends the data wirelessly to a remote monitor, triggering audible alarms when levels go out of the patients optimal range and tracking glucose levels over time.The Telemedicine ordnungsprinzip from InTouch Technologies. Image InTouchHealth.com4. Robotic Check-UpsA pillar o f health reform is improving access to the best health care for more people. Technology is a cost-effective and increasingly potent means to connect clinics in the vast and medically underserved rural regions of the United States with big city medical centers and their specialists. Telemedicine is well established as a tool for triage and assessment in emergencies, but new medical robots go one step furtherthey can now patrol hospital hallways on more routine rounds, checking on patients in different rooms and managing their individual charts and vital signs without direct human intervention. The RP-VITA Remote Presence Robot produced jointly by iRobot Corp. and InTouch Health is the first such autonomous navigation remote-presence robot to receive FDA clearance for hospital use. The device is a mobile cart with a two-way video screen and medical monitoring equipment, programmed to maneuver through the busy halls of a hospital.The Sapien transcatheter aortic valve from Edwards Lifes ciences. Image Edwards.com5. A Valve Job with HeartThe Sapien transcatheter aortic valve is a life-saving alternative to open-heart surgery for patients who need new a new valve but cant endure the rigors of the operation. Manufactured by Edwards Life Sciences (Irvine, CA), the Sapien has been available in Europe for some time but is only now finding its first use in U.S. heart centerswhere it is limited only to the frailest patients thus far. The Sapien valve is guided through the femoral artery by catheter from a small incision near the grown or rib cage. The valve materie is made of bovine tissue attached to a stainless-steel stent, which is expanded by inflating a small balloon when correctly placed in the valve space. A simpler procedure that promises dramatically shorter hospitalizations is bound to have a positive effect on the cost of care.Michael MacRae is an independent writer.More Exclusive 2019 Stories from ASME.orgSolving World Hunger with 3D-Printed FoodSix Project Man agement Tips Every Engineer NeedsInnovations in Biomaterials Create New Roles for Engineersspan.caption-two position relative display block width-removed 280px z-index 10 color808080 margin-removed 10px 0 100px 0 //margin-removed 10px 0 150px 0.image-break-backgr position absolute width-removed340px heightautoheight-removedautoheight-removedautoheight-removed202px z-index 1 margin-removed -110px 0 20px -200px /*position background here */ //margin-removed -105px 0 0 -380px.image-break position relative padding-removed 0px 0px 50px 0px dont-float-removed left width-removed 340px heightautoheight-removedautoheight-removedautoheight-removed202px z-index 4 margin-removed 0px 20px 20px -180px

5 Ways You Can Use Facts in Your Job Hunt

5 Ways You Can Use Facts in Your Job Hunt 5 Ways You Can Use Facts in Your Job Hunt "Just the facts, ma'am…" is the famous line attributed to Joe Friday on the old TV show Dragnet. But an Internet search reveals that what the character really said in an early episode was, "All we want are the facts." Recruiters, human resources staffing personnel, and hiring managers are like Joe Fridays: They just want the facts when reviewing your resume and conducting interviews.Here are five easy ways sticking to "just the facts" can help your job search:1. Use facts to stand out from the crowd. Often job hunters bemoan how difficult it is to be noticed. However, your chances for distinguishing yourself will skyrocket the more you provide understandable facts specific to your own work experience on your cover letters, resume, and during interviews. Don't be so general in your descriptions of your roles and activities that an employer can't understand what you have actually done. Don't just list your areas of expertise: Make each a bullet point where you relate your successes a nd accomplishments. The facts you provide demonstrate your value and distinguish you from the other people competing for your dream job.2. Get rid of superfluous clutter and meaningless jargon. Forget about what you think you are supposed to say, and jettison all the stock phrases that will be regarded as drivel or fluff. Instead, let each resume bullet point tell a story that demonstrates what you have done, how you did it, and the results you attained. These detailed facts, when taken together, will best demonstrate how you're a match for the employer's needs.3. Select the right facts: your successes and accomplishments. It would be accurate to covey your job description through a series of "Responsible for…" bullet points. But to do so says nothing about what you actually did, or how you handled your responsibilities compared to others who have held similar positions. What resulted from your actions? How did you contribute to increasing revenues, increasing productivity, or dec reasing costs for your employer? If you can provide the answer to these questions, you will have conveyed powerful information that will describe yourself without haughtiness or self-deprecation.4. Never misstate or make up facts. Resumes are fact checked as a matter of due diligence. No matter where you are in your career, it is imperative that anything you present as a fact be verifiable. If it is determined that you lied on your resume or in an interview, it is grounds for disqualification. If you're already on the job, it is grounds for termination.Often, you may not remember or have access to specific numbers. But there are creative and honest ways to get around this. For example, if you know that your activities had a role in increasing revenues, but you don't have a specific number or percentage to cite, you can write something like, "Revenues were significantly boosted by doing XYZ."5. Offer facts, not conclusions. Don't fall into the trap of making conclusions like, "I'm un iquely qualified /the best fit/ the perfect person for this job." Really? How do you know the qualifications and experience of the numerous other people you're up against? Your role as a job hunter is to provide information, and not to presumptuously usurp the judgment-making role appropriate for the hiring authority.To be sure, it takes a fair amount of time and effort to recall all that you have done over a period of years, but that is your role as a job hunter. If you do it well, you will certainly become noticed for your accomplishments, and have wonderful stories to tell when someone asks you in an interview, "Tell me about a time when you…"Happy hunting!Arnie Fertig is the head coach of JOBHUNTERCOACH.COM, where he utilizes his extensive background in HR Staffing and as owner of a recruiting company to help mid-career job-hunters land their next job. Arnie provides one-to-one coaching services to individuals throughout the U.S. in all aspects of the job hunt, including: resu me writing, personal branding, utilizing social media, enhancing networking skills, preparing for interviews, and negotiating compensation.

Within this section of the sample, you can see that the candidate has included only the most valuable information about her professional identity, compressing it all into an easily readable format.

8 Stages of a Successful Job Hunt

8 Stages of a Successful Job Hunt 8 Stages of a Successful Job Hunt No matter what your occupation or level of experience is, the process of getting a new job has several common elements. Once you understand the progression as a whole, you are less likely to make mistakes along the way. Here are the stages you’ll most likely pass through on your way to your next position: 1. Figuring out your value. The obvious but often overlooked truth is that people get hired for only one reason: They represent the best possible answer to an employer’s need to have X work done. Somehow that “X” contributes to increasing sales or productivity or decreasing risk and expenses. As a job hunter, it is your responsibility to understand and convey how it is that you can contribute to the advancement of any employer’s mission. What about your skills, education and experience will enable you to make a significant contribution to your next employer? 2. Determining your target. It is important to figure out the right type of company or organization that will generally need someone like you. It's also critical to understand in what kind of environment you will feel comfortable and productive. What industry? What organization size? What type of products or services? What kind of role? To learn about organizations in your area, you can do a great deal of research on LinkedIn. Specialized databases like Hoovers, accessible through most public libraries, can be invaluable. Support this research with informational interviews with key leaders in your field. 3. Crafting your brand and message. For whatever role you seek, you will likely face strong competition from many candidates who possess similar backgrounds as yours. Rather than ramble on about the responsibilities that you share with others, focus on the qualities, experience and expertise that set you apart from the pack. Your personal branding statement should be at the top of your  résumé  and LinkedIn profile. In essence, it is the answer to the first question at every interview: Tell me about yourself [and what sets you apart from your competition]. You should develop a consistent message, which is presented differently in the forms of your    résumé, LinkedIn profile and professional bio. 4. Prospecting. Now that you know your value and what you want, it's time to start actively prospecting for jobs. There are numerous ways to go about this by scouting posted positions on company Web pages, job boards, LinkedIn, Indeed and so on. But remember: About 80 percent of new hires come about from personal networking. Get out there and attend professional events like symposia, conferences, conventions and trade shows. Network with fellow college alumni, people in your community and at Meetup groups. In short: Network anywhere, everywhere and all the time! 5. Determining the rough fit in a phone interview. In most situations, an employer will sift through many  résumés  to do a “rough cut” of people who appear on the surface to  meet and exceed the minimum job requirements. Typically, an internal recruiter or human resources representative will make a call, say some flattering things and set up a phone screening interview. Don’t mistake statements like “you appear to have what we are looking for” as anything more than a general indication of interest. You don’t have the job yet!This is the time to show you're really the person your  résumé  represents. Be prepared to discuss every career and educational transition, the basics of what you do and  what would be required of you. This isn’t the time for final decisions or discussions of compensation. 6. Dealing with red flags. Part of the screening process is to take a look at anything that might be disqualifying for an otherwise potentially strong candidate. Things like employment gaps, too many or too few career transitions and a host of other factors might cause concern. Take time to figure out what your obvious red flags are, and be prepared to help your interviewer lower them, so you can proceed to making your case at the “real” interview. 7. Making your case. This, of course, is what happens at any face-to-face job interview. Come prepared for whatever can be thrown at you. Know your  résumé  inside and out, and be able  to expand on anything you have written in it. Articles and books about interviewing for a job are more than plentiful. Read them and prepare, but don’t over-prepare so much that your answers come off as rehearsed. When it comes down to it, you can’t fake sincerity and should never misrepresent what you’ve done. Rehearsed lines may also minimize the positive reaction you should have when demonstrating genuine interest in the company, role to be filled and how you would be able to make a significant contribution. 8. Negotiating the deal. You will always be in a stronger position to negotiate for a higher level of compensation if you wait until all your competition has been eliminated. Then you don’t have to worry about low-balling them or selling yourself too short. At the same time, remember that you want to start out on a good foot, with neither you nor the employer feeling dragged over the coals in a protracted or contentious negotiation. Talk about objective criteria rather than vague wants, and give a solid justification for whatever requests you make. Whole books are available for each of these stages of the job hunt. However, when you remember these basics and use them as a frame of reference for your own search strategy, you’ll have a sense of what you need to do to get to where you want to go. Happy hunting!Arnie Fertig, MPA, is passionate about helping his  Jobhuntercoach  clients advance their careers by transforming frantic “I’ll apply to anything” searches into focused hunts for “great fit” opportunities. He brings to each client the extensive knowledge he gained when working in HR staffing and managing his boutique recruiting firm.

And as g rade inflation is the norm, only include your GPA if it's 3.5 or higher.Do include relevant education you've obtained outside of school: certifications, workshops, etc.Personal interests. List three or four. Often, a shared personal interest can be the tipper that lands you an interview and even the job.Cross-check.

Just checking.)Double-check to be sure you've excised all sneakiness from your résumé, if not for an ethical reason, then for the pragmatic one that it reduces your chances of getting hired. For example, some people with employment gaps leave out the dates of their employment or call themselves a consultant. Most employers line their cat box with such résumés. And if, perchance, you make it to the interview or reference check, the truth will likely come out which will eliminate any chance of your landing the job. Similarly, deceptive older applicants try to hide their age, for example, by not including the date they got their college degree. Hint, Bucko: Before hiring you, they'll see your wrinkled puss and feel deceived and thus play wastebasket basketball with your résumé or even put you on the employer's permanent blacklist. Get candid feedback. Now put aside your résumé for a day, then reread it with fresh eyes and, as necessary, revise. Finally, show or email the draft to colleagues, friends and/or headhunters who are in a position to assess if it will likely impress your target employer. Ask them, "Is it clear, concise, and most important, would it make you want to interview me for my target job?" Urge them to be honest. Better to get their criticism than for employers to use your résumé as scratch paper or fish wrap.And now you have a strong, ethical resume, no Sturm und Drang required.The San Francisco Bay Guardian called Dr. Nemko "The Bay Area's Best Career Coach" and he was Contributing Editor for Ca reers at U.S. News.

What to Do When a Recruiter Reaches Out to You

What to Do When a Recruiter Reaches Out to You What to Do When a Recruiter Reaches Out to You Most of the time in the job search, you’re the one in the driver’s seat. It’s up to you to write an amazing resume , find an opportunity that’s right for you, apply to the position and really market yourself to the company. But if you’ve got an impressive enough background or a mastery of hard-to-find skills, recruiters might be the ones reaching out to you . So what should you do when the tables are turned? Are the rules the same, or do things need to be handled differently? To find out, we turned to Erin Zaller, Senior Director of Delivery at Kforce . First off, if a recruiter reaches out to you, relax and congratulate yourself. It’s a good thing! “If a recruiter does reach out to you, it’s because you have a specific skill set or project experience… so there’s already interest on our side,” Zaller says. But just because they’re interested doesn’t mean you don’t have to impress them - recruiters will lose interest if you can’t maintain professionalism or sell them on why you’re a good fit. When drafting your first response to a recruiter’s message, make sure to thank them for thinking of you and taking the time to reach out to you. From there, you can share a little bit more about what you’re looking for. “It’s important to remember that you control how the relationship is going to be from that first interaction. Based on candidate feedback, I’m going to learn if they want more details or less, if they’re looking for market intelligence, if they need a higher pay rate or any number of things. It’s when candidates don’t approach the conversation with that open feedback that they end up with a not-so-great experience,” Zaller says. If you think you might want to learn more about the position, don’t play coy. “If you are interested in the opportunity, it’s best practice to reply with some availability for a deeper conversation and the best method to contact you” - preferably on the phone. “Be careful about judging a position through too many back and forth messages. It’s always best to have a conversation to dig deeper and decide whether the position is a fit for you,” Zaller adds. In addition to doing research on Glassdoor , there are a number of steps you can take to determine whether or not the job at hand is the right one for you. “To gauge an opportunity, I recommend setting up a phone conversation to test the recruiter’s knowledge on the role by asking questions such as: What are the day-to-day responsibilities? What business problems is this position trying to solve? Who will this person interact with? Then ask questions from a company standpoint, such as what’s driving the need for this role?” Zaller suggests. “If the recruiter can’t answer these questions, it’s a red flag that they can’t articulate the opportunity well enough.” If they struggle to answer, it might even be that they’re attempting to hide some negative aspects of the position. Another red flag? If the recruiter asks for too much information too soon. “There’s certain information [employers] may need throughout the recruitment process, such as your full name, contact information or last 4 digits of your social security number,” Zaller shares. “But you should only give truly personal information when you know the opportunity is legitimate , you’ve spoken to the recruiter over the phone and you know you’re moving forward in the interview. Think of providing that information as a down payment to hold your spot for the position once there’s interest on both sides.” “When a recruiter reaches out to potential candidates for a position there’s a baseline that qualifies each person for the opportunity in some way. Know that if you’re contacted there’s already interest on the recruiter’s end,” Zaller says. Still, that doesn’t mean your getting a job is a sure thing. There’s a good chance that the same recruiter has reached out to multiple candidates, and you want to make sure to prove that of everyone the recruiter has chatted with, you’re the best. “Those who end up being stand-out candidates are the ones who show passion for what they do and have pride in their voice when they talk about their experience. It’s like a lightbulb goes off when you have someone who talks through the exact challenge the company is having and presents measurable ways they’ve solved it before. As I’m talking to a candidate like this, I can envision them in an interview with the hiring manager and completely nailing it,” Zaller says. “This also shows a level of eagerness to move forward in the process that lets me know you take it seriously.” Recruiters reaching out to you is undoubtedly a good sign, but you shouldn’t assume that you’re a shoe-in. If you can respond to a recruiter’s message with tact, confirm with them that the opportunity is a good fit for you and describe why you’re the right person for the job, though, there’s a good chance that you’ll continue to move forward in the interview process. Just remember to act confident (not cocky!), ask the right questions and highlight your passion.

Here are some tips to help you start your career

Here are some tips to help you start your career Here are some tips to help you start your career One of the most important career lessons I’ve learned is to pursue a career and not a job. At first glance, you might think, “What’s the difference?” I also didn’t get it for years.That’s how I finally ended up in an IT job that I wasn’t passionate about. At one point, I was reflecting on my career and life by writing in my journal and thought, “How on earth did I end up in this job?”  I didn’t have a good answer. All I knew was that I felt stuck and lacked any future perspective. If you have ever been in that position, or are in it right now, you know that it’s depressing.How Conscious Are Your Decisions?If you would ask me “how did you end up in your current job?” four years ago, I would tell you this: “It just happened.” It’s a common answer to that question.Looking back, I realized that I never made conscious decisions about my career until that point.We all believe we’re Independent and that we make our own decisions. But that idea about ourselv es is false. The truth is that we chase things like money, status, job titles, promotions, corner offices, respect from our peers, you name it. All external factors.We must stop putting our careers in other people’s hands. We must take control by making conscious decisions.Ralph Waldo Emerson, one of the most conscious thinkers of all time, said it best:“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” What Career Do You Want?Most of us don’t know what we want. I also didn’t know exactly what I wanted for many years. At least, that’s what I told myself. Deep down, I knew damned well what I wanted to do. It’s what I’m doing right now: writing, teaching and speaking.Until four years ago, I was simply too afraid to pursue this career because of one thing: creating a career is hard.I believe that we all have something we love to pursue. Whether or not that’s something we actually end up doing for the rest of our lives doesn’t matter.What matters is that we consciously decide to pursue a particular career. And that we don’t pick a job because we need the money. Or because our parents want to.Just like Emerson said, you decide who you become. After successfully creating my own career, I’ve identified 5 steps that can help you to get started.1. Analyze yourselfI’ve never met a successful person who did not build a career on their strengths. It simply does not exist. No one can perform well by doing something they are bad at.Sure, you can improve your weaknesses. But it’s not an effective strategy. Like Peter Drucker says in  Managing Oneself:“It takes far more energy and work to improve from incompetence to mediocrity than it takes to improve from first-rate performance to excellence.”So figure out how you perform. Identify your strengths. Then, go to the next step.2. Identify an industry that fits your strengthsThis is a tough one. On one side, I believe that we should pursue a career we are passionate about. But on the other side, I think we should NOT do something we’re bad at.So what should you do if you love something but suck at it? My opinion is to not pursue a career in that field. Treat it like a hobby instead. A lot of people love to make music, but they are not good enough to earn a living. But does that mean you should stop making music? Hell no! Go and jam with your friends- in your spare time.The bottom line is this: Only pu rsue a career that fits your strengths. I know this is somewhat of a limited view. Some people even call it pessimistic. But I see it as realism.We all have bills to pay and people to take care of. We can only do that by making a living. But that doesn’t mean we should do work we hate. There is always an industry that you love and that fits your strengths.And you know what? Like Cal Newport argues in  So Good They Can’t Ignore You; eventually, you will love the work you’re good at.3. Improve your universal skillsJust being good at your job doesn’t cut it. To truly make an impact in the workplace, you need what I call “universal skills.”Skills like writing, leadership, personal effectiveness, and persuasion are helpful to all professionals. Whether you are a coder or carpenter, you want to provide value to others. To keep doing that, you need those universal skills.The earlier you start improving your universal skills, the more likely it is that you will be ready when you get an opportunity.Want to learn more about improving your skills? Watch this video.4. Start at the bottomI never understand why people are so impatient. No one ever became successful by starting at the top. That’s simply not how life works.Just look at all the kids with rich parents who give them everything. Those kids often don’t understand the value of hard work and how hard it is to make a living. There’s no honor in getting a free pass.“But don’t you want to take the fast lane of life?” Some people might argue.Yes, of course. I’m all about personal effectiveness and achieving better results in less time. But I’m not about quick fixes and unrealistic expectations. For the first three years after I started my first business in 2010, I made virtually no money. And I even moved back to my parents for the first two years, so I had no expenses.All the money we made went back into the business. And I worked on the business 7 days a week. It’s the same when you start or switch careers.You might not see any benefits during the first few years. It’s a hard concept to grasp. Because you also don’t want to waste your time. That’s why I always warn people; if you’re seeing 0 results, you’re doing something wrong.When I didn’t pay myself at our business, the business itself was growing. You see? I’m not saying, “Put your head down and work yourself to death.”No, you still have to be smart. If you don’t see any results, be hard on yourself. But always be willing to start at the bottom. Forget about your ego. No one is good enough to do certain things. And at some level, we’re all students. It’s the only sustainable strategy if you want to achieve sustainable career success.5. Keep developing yourselfOne thing I always notice when I talk to successful people is how excited they are about the future. Have you ever experienced that as well?And it’s true. There’s nothing more exciting than the rush you get when you get new idea s or when you daydream about the future.At the same time, when you have no outlook on the future at all, you feel stuck and depressed. Am I right?We’ve all been there. There’s nothing more discouraging than being stuck at a dead-end job. That’s why we must always keep learning. We should never, for a single moment, get comfortable with our current job.Every day, we must learn and develop ourselves. And before you go out and say it, I will: “That’s hard!”It’s much easier to work 9-5 and spend the rest of the evening on the couch, watching tv shows, movies or playing video games.You and I both know that a fulfilling career doesn’t come for free. The price is hard work and effort. I’m willing to pay that; what about you?This  article  first appeared on  DariusForoux.com.
