How to be someone that everyone wants to work withHow to be someone that everyone wants to work withToxic work environments can make you feel like youre running on empty your wertzuwachs suffers, you have feelings of extreme anxiety, and end up bringing your heavy heart homeonly to lash out at those you loveafter work.Pair this with working crazy hours, and youve got a recipe for disaster. Americans work too much its a fact. A 2014 Gallup survey found that full-time workers in the U.S. reported working 47 hours a week on average. The same survey found that half of all full-time employees reported they usually work more than 40 hours, and almost four in 10 said they work a minimum of 50 hours.No matter what your hours are,youcant control everything at work- but you do have the power to react positively to whatever comes your way, andencourage others to do the same. leid only will you lift your own mood and build resilience, which is a key skill to rising in your career, but youll als o gain a reputation that will make you sought-after.Heres how to reap the benefits of positivity, while still being a real human who has to confront bad days.Focus on what you can controlDont get too caught up in thatsarcastic response the office snark gave your presentation during the team meeting,or the fact that your manager didnt quit grasp your vision for your latest project the way you thought he or she would.How others think and behave will always be up to them (even if its far from nice). Instead of worrying, come up with a way to move forward. Youre in control of how you react to discouragement or being provoked. Why is that a useful reminder? Because remembering your ownautonomy make you a stronger performer.Follow the golden ruleTreat others how you want to be treated. In other words, be kind.Emma Seppala and Kim Cameron wrote about the impact of positive work environments on productivity in the Harvard Business Review.Engagement in work - which is associated with feelin g valued, secure, supported, and respected - is generally negatively associated with a high-stress, cut-throat culture, they wrote. Similarly, Google found thatpsychological safety is the key to an effective team.the safer team members feel with one another, the more likely they are to admit mistakes, to partner, and to take on new roles, Google wrote. Being kind and making others feel comfortable around you should make things run more smoothly.Get to know your co-workersIf you dont take the time to learn about the people you spend so much time with every week, how do you expectto work well together?Try making small talk. Ask about their lives, get to know them as people. Instead of relying on Slack, email and text messages, talk to them face to face, which allows for bonding. As much as technology has changed the world, humans still like to size each other up and take each others measure. Let your expression and tone express who you really are, and you may find people respond bett er than they would to a formal professional mask.Forbes contributor, psychiatrist and executive coach Steven Berglas commented on getting more confident at doing this ina 2012 Forbes article.Building self-confidence is a two-phase process. The first phase involves purging yourself of self-doubt in the second, you build up your confidence. Its like erecting a skyscraper First you clear the site and lay a solid foundation, then you stack the superstructure. How high you gohow much confidence you musteris up to you, Berglas told Forbes.If you go out on a limb and talk to someone who wouldnt be your first choice to go for drinks with after work, you might find that you have something in common.Just dont push it. Set boundaries by talking about office-friendly subjects while on the job. Seeming interested without being intrusive is a delicate balance.Gratitude will change your workday - and your lifeWhether its the fact that you dont have work tomorrow because its Friday, or that you we re able to strike up a promising conversation today with an company executivewho has never seems to have noticed you in the hallway, dont forget to be grateful.This can also help you when youre having a bad day at work.Psychologist Robert Emmons wrote about how gratitude can help people fight stress in an article for UC Berkeleys Greater Good. There is scientific evidence that grateful people are more resilient to stress, whether minor everyday hassles or major personal upheavals. The contrast between suffering and redemption serves as the basis for one of my tips for practicing gratitude remember the bad, Emmons wrote.Being grateful can also help your company, which is where your manager comes in.Charles D. Kerns, PHD, MBA wrote about this idea for Pepperdine Universitys Graziadio Business Review. When an employee believes his or her superiors are grateful for his or her work, the employee will benefit by having an improved sense of worth to the organization. This improved sense of worth can lead to performance improvement, thereby benefiting the organization, Kerns wrote. When you feel better, you work better.Have a life outside of workYour job shouldnt be the biggest thing in your life. If it is, youre more likely to be unhappy.Ran Zilca wrote about a data analysis of the Happify app, where the data science team analyzed what makes people satisfied at work, in the Harvard Business Review. The bottom line Satisfaction at work is influenced by factors such asbenefits, pay, relationships, and commute length. But all of this boils down to two things being important, regardless of your circumstances (1) having a life outside of work, and (2) having the money to afford it. If you have a job that grants you both of these, you might be happier than you realize, Zilca wrote.Strive for work-life balance. It makes you happier, healthier, and more effective at work.The best part of being a joy to work with? Offices are subject to emotional contagion - so everyone arou nd you is likely to be nicer too.

Do You Need Job Retraining

Do You Need Job RetrainingDo You Need Job RetrainingConsidering going back for more education? Make sure the scope of the program is right for your goals.Unemployment figures may mask opportunities Even if employers are laying off employees at a furious rate, those same companies are seeking to hire in other areas of the company.They often have to look outside the company, not transfer employees internally, because current workers lack the skills required for those jobs. For example, although the Boeing Co. plans to layoff about 10,000 employees this year, it also has 1,500 open positions.Some fields like bio technology, alternative energy, health care and education are expected to experience explosive job growth in the coming years. This expansion will create a need for chemists, engineers, programmers, nurses and those who manage teams of unterstellung professionals.In light of that, does it make sense to go back to school to acquire the skills needed to fill the types of jobs that are in demand?Going back to school full- time to change careers or to take your current career to the next level is a major decision involving a significant commitment of time and money.ExampleJohn Mone, a management consultant in Randolph, N.J., held a senior operations position for a large trading company when he decided to pursue an executive MBA at Wharton. For him, this turned out to be a good decision, leading him into a successful career as a management consultant.However, returning to school full time is not for everyone. Mone suggests that you should have a specific purpose and destination in mind before making what can be a substantial investment in time and money pursuing additional study. If you have a passion for what you want to study, returning to school may be exactly what you need to take your career in the right direction. That passion will enable you to find a way to use what you learn to build a career in your field of interest.Dr. Karen Boroff, dean of the Seto n Hall Stillman School of Business in South Orange, N.J, points out that, depending on your employment situation there are many different educational options available.Part time. If an individual is employed, taking courses on a part time or ad-hoc grund may be a good option.Continuing education. Enrolling in courses offered through a continuing- education or certificate program is an excellent way to develop or enhance specific skills that will keep you marketable.Full time. If an individual is unemployed, studying on a full-time basis becomes a more attractive option.According to Dr. Boroff When an individual is pursuing an advanced degree in order to transition back into the work force, a part-time graduate program is an option worth considering because it allows the student to network with working professionals.A competitive edgeSuccess in todays rapidly changing world requires continuous learning. If you do not stay current with what is happening in your field, sooner or later , you are likely to find yourself unemployed and unmarketable.Everyone can benefit from updating their skills, and learning new ones, by taking courses at a local college or online, or by attending seminars. Understanding the latest technology and its potential uses in your job will help you stand out from a crowded field of candidates. Most potential employers will view your efforts to stay abreast of developments in your field as a major plus when they are making hiring decisions.You need to be strategic in pursuing job retraining and educational opportunities. If you go back to school simply because you dont know what else to do, you are likely to be disappointed in the results. Caroline Ceniza-Levine of Little Silver, co-founder of the SixFigureStart, a career -coaching firm, summed it up well when she stated Many students mistakenly use a return to graduate school as a way to escape a bad job market, not realizing that they will likely graduate into just as weak a market, and this time with a big debt load.

Inappropriate Interview Questions How to Handle Them

Inappropriate Interview Questions How to Handle Them Inappropriate Interview Questions How to Handle Them As a job seeker, its common to run into situations that can be awkward and uncomfortable during bewerbungsgesprchs. No two people ever interview candidates the same, so it can be challenging to know what to expect. One of the worst experiences is when the person on the other side of the hiring desk starts asking inappropriate interview questions that border on discrimination or even harassment. How should you tactfully deal with such a scenario, while maintaining your privacy and making a positive impression? What about salvaging an interview once an inappropriate question has been asked? All of this depends on the nature of the question, how it comes about, and how you, as a candidate, respond. There are some key ways you can prepare for an interview and tackle even the more difficult interview questions.Identifying inappropriate interview questionsFirst, lets understand what co uld be happening here, and if your concerns are warranted. Some interview questions can seem to be inappropriate to any job seeker. There are some questions that are perfectly legal to ask, such asDo you have any limitations that could prevent you from performing the duties of this job? Do you require any accommodations to perform the job you are interested in?Can you safely lift, bend, stand, sit, for long periods of time for this job?Have you ever been fired or terminated or let go from a job in the past?Have you ever been convicted of a crime? Tell me more about yourself?Why did you decide to apply for a job here?Why should our company hire you for this job?Would you share a time that you experienced a conflict at work, and what did you do?How would your current or past co-workers or supervisors describe your performance? The above questions may seem too personal, but they are common questions that are asked during interviews and are perfectly legal. Why are they okay to ask? The questions directly relate to the requirements of employment. For example, a question that asks if someone can lift or stand on the job simply tells the hiring manager that a candidate is physically able to perform the requirements of the job without causing himself harm. An interview question that is a staple of most companies is regarding any criminal history of a candidate. This can determine if a candidate poses any kind of risk to the business or other employees (such as being convicted of a violent crime).Now, lets talk about interview questions that are truly inappropriate. This is not a complete list, but you will immediately notice the difference. Workforce Magazine provides a more in-depth explanation of illegal interview questions. Are you married or do you plan to get married?What year did you graduate high school? (age)Do you have children or do you plan to have children?You have an interesting accent where were you born?How long have you been disabled? What caused it? Do you go to church, temple, or synagogue here in town?I see you did not work for a few years, what were you doing then?Would you like to have lunch with me sometime?Have you ever been arrested? We usually hire men for this kind of work why do you want this job?Do you consider yourself to be a healthy person in general?Are you working on losing weight or improving your appearance?None of these questions have any place in a job interview. They violate a number of employment laws, because they relate to personal status, such as age, sexual orientation, marital or parenting status, disability, race, national origin, and other protected classes. They do not have anything to do with the job requirements or employment eligibility.What to do when asked an inappropriate interview questionIf you happen to encounter an interview question that falls into a category of being inappropriate, it can be unnerving at first. One the one hand, you want to be viewed as someone who is eager to work with others and ready to tackle anything on the other hand you dont need to provide an answer to an inappropriate question that could be used illegally in a hiring decision. What are some tactful ways to handle this, while still coming out on top?Request clarification of the question Is it possible that you miss-heard the interview question? Maybe its unclear or sounds like something you should not answer. A professional way to determine if you are dealing with an inappropriate question is to ask the interviewer to repeat the question in relationship to the job. You could say something like, Pardon me, am I hearing you correctly? Did you mean to ask me if I am married, and how does this impact the job I am here interviewing for please? Give a one-word answerOnce the question has been asked, its too late to retract it. The interviewer may either be inexperienced or not aware of this error. Take a deep breath, and then give as simple an answer as possible. In some cases, a one-word answer will suffice. Dont volunteer any more information than necessary, but be polite and smile. Revisit a previous questionAnother choice you have is to revert back to another interview question that you want to provide more information for. This is a way to change the subject, and fast. Think of something you can add to a previous answer that makes you look more thoughtful. You could say something like, Oh, could we talk about subject from previously? I wanted to elaborate on that point more. Offensive/harassmentThe only exception to the above rules is if you are asked an inappropriate interview question that is outright offensive or harassing in nature. For example, being asked what your race is or if you would like to go on a date. In this case, its prudent to simply excuse yourself from the interview room and leave.Many times, people who are not skilled at interviewing can mess up. Try to remember that the inappropriate interview question could just be an honest mistake. Unless it f alls under the final rule, just try to move onto another subject.Tess C.

Job interview question and answer Why are manhole covers round

Job interview question and answer Why are manhole covers round Job Interview Question And Answer Why Are Manhole Covers Round?Posted October 13, 2011, by Josie Chun This question was made famous when Microsoft began using it in job interviews. It is an example of a creative problem-solving question that is used to assess how a partie approaches a problem with more than one possible answer, and to test their logic, common sense and ability to think through an unusual question in a high-pressure interview setting. According to Joel Spolsky, one of Microsofts early program managers, questions like these distinguish between people who are smart and get things done, people who are smart but dont get things done, and people who get things done but are not smart. Microsoft must have been onto something, because this type of question has been adopted by many other companies as an alternative to more traditional interview questions. A number of possible explanations for why manhole covers a re round include A round manhole cover cannot fall through its circular opening, whereas a square manhole cover could fall in if it were inserted diagonally in the hole. Circular covers dont need to be rotated or precisely aligned when placing them on the opening. A round manhole cover is easily moved and rolled. Human beings have a roughly circular cross-section. Round tubes are the strongest shape against the compression of the earth around them, so the cover of the tube would naturally be round as well. Its easier to dig a circular hole. Round castings are much easier to manufacture using a lathe.
