Did I get My Moneysworth?

After the launching of my site, I had some great success with new viewers and followers.Ò  I received a lot of email indicating our price was so low, that this could not be true. Ò As you see most job seeking sites for telecommuting or work at home is pretty much scams. You should never have to pay to view any jobs - according to the guidelines of the Better Business Bureau (BBB). But you still get caught with that spell bounding pitch page or just plainly the site just doesnò€™t LOOK like it could be scam. Ò I certainly have been there and done that. I must have invested so much money into these fly by night scams like stuffing envelopes, processing rebates, writing ads (only lucrative if you use PPC) and the list goes onò€¦. You know which ones Iò€™m talking about. Ò It"s the one that either works on your emotions (kick"em while their down), or promise that you can be so called rich in no time working from home. They even show you a paycheck!! Is it real? Of course not. Ò It is only real because the suckers like you and I bought it at one point in time! Imagine that. Ò Of course there is one down fall in working for yourself or becoming independent contractors on the web... You will have to either join an association to continue getting jobs or buying into marketing yourself in order to really start making a living out of it. So it is going to be hard to get around it. However you can be smart about itò€¦ After doing a bit of research, surveys and focus groups, I found that the majority of those who are now actually working from home have paid into some type of group or learning materials in order to help them succeed. The main key, "did I get my moneys worth?" How many times have you felt like after you paid your membership, logged onto the site and realized this was not what you were looking for? Again, I know that all too well.

Resume Objective Statements: Tell The Hiring Manager Why He Should Read The Rest Of Your Resume

Ið€™m here to tell you that you need an objective statement on your resume.  Why?

*An objective statement tells me why I should keep reading the rest of your resume.

Itð€™s advertising, basically.  Itð€™s the teaser that will draw me in to reading the rest of your resume.  (The cover letter wonð€™t do it.  Recruiters donð€™t generally have the time to read a cover letterð€“we go straight to the resume.  So, make sure the first few lines of your resume make me want to read more.)  Read about how to craft a compelling objective statement.  At itð€™s core, itð€™s about creating a statement that fits your capabilities to fulfilling the needs of the organization.  What are a few of your key qualities that will make you a good fit for this job?  Be careful that you donð€™t make this too generic (boring).

*An objective statement makes it easier for me to figure out who you are and what you want.

Donð€™t be vague:  Think of your resume objective as a Personal Branding Statement.  Itð€™s not only saying what you want, but itð€™s also indicating what problems you can solve and how you can bring value to the organization.  In that way, itð€™s tailored to the job youð€™re applying for.  You"re telling the hiring manager what you can do to fill the needs of the company--not telling him how he can help you get what you want.

Donð€™t worry:  a well-crafted, tailored objective statement wonð€™t stop you from being considered for other jobs.  For instance, as a medical sales recruiter, Ið€™m always looking for the best candidate to submit to my clients for consideration for jobs in medical sales, laboratory sales, medical device sales, health care IT, and more.  If your objective statement has led me to read the rest of your resume to see what you can do (and what you have done), Ið€™m going to think about you for any job you might be a good fit for because thatð€™s whatð€™s in the best interests of me and my client companies.
