What Should Be Included Under Qualifications On Your Resume?
What Should Be Included Under Qualifications On Your Resume?There are two very important questions to consider when writing a resume. They are what should you include under qualifications and what should you put in your career section. In this article I will go over what should be included under qualifications and what you should put in the career section.When writing a resume you want to make sure that you include all of the qualifications that you have met. Most people have received good job offers or new promotions after a little bit of hard work on their resumes. Sometimes people leave out the qualifications when they write their resume, but this is not the way to go. Most employers are looking for a level of qualification that gives you a chance to prove yourself before they make an offer to hire you.If you are successful professionals and you do not have any under qualifications that could give you a chance to work you may want to look into taking an online course in how to pre pare a resume. Online courses are available from many colleges or universities across the country so there is no excuse for not learning how to create a resume.It is important that you include your professional skills and the experience that you have with that skill set. For example, if you were a teacher you may want to include how many years of teaching experience you have, whether you have ever been a school counselor and whether you are certified or not.At this point you may be wondering what should be included under the qualifications. The best thing to do is to go through your resume and choose one area to focus on. You may want to narrow your areas down by the amount of training that you have and the things that you have accomplished.For example, if you have recently finished college you can highlight the amount of time that you have been working for one of your employers or the number of internships that you have worked at which is a good way to describe your professional hi story for the future employer. You may also want to highlight the qualifications that you have earned in a given field.These are things that can help you in your career in the long run. For example if you work as a writer and you are good at writing sales letters you can focus on writing sales letters. However if you are not too good at marketing you should highlight the writing that you have done for websites that market your products or services.

Citigroups CEO Says Income Inequality Is What Keeps Him Up at Night
Citigroup's CEO Says Income Inequality Is What Keeps Him Up at Night Citigroup Inc. Chief Executive Officer Michael Corbat said the widening income gap in the U.S. ranks high on the list of things that keep him up at night. Growing income inequality in the U.S. and around the world has led to increasingly âpolarized politics,â Corbat said in his companyâs annual citizenship report, released on Wednesday. In the U.S., the wage gap is exacerbated by a shortage of affordable housing that disproportionately affects low-income people and minority communities, he said. âIn so many places around the world, political discourse â" though never all that civil in tone â" has devolved into little more than a series of âIâm right and youâre wrongâ shouting matches,â Corbat said. âNot surprisingly, talking over and past each other hasnât led to much effective action being taken to address the root challenges we face as a society.â Corbatâs bank has been increasingly taking stances on prominent social issues. Last year, Citigroup was the first bank to put restrictions on its customers in the firearms industry. Itâs also the only major U.S. bank to disclose an unadjusted analysis of the pay gap between its female and male employees. âInternally, we have taken steps to mirror many of the changes we need to make as a society,â Corbat said in Wednesdayâs report. Corbat himself came under fire earlier this month for income inequality inside Citigroup. During testimony before Congress, Representative Nydia Velazquez, a Democrat from New York, noted that Citigroupâs ratio of CEO-to-median-worker pay is 486 to 1. Asked for his feelings about that spread, Corbat said he hopes his employees would see âthat thereâs opportunity to continue to advance within the firm.â The post originally appeared on Bloomberg.

The Recession-Proof Beauty of Healthcare Jobs
The Recession-Proof Beauty of Healthcare Jobs In a recent Time magazine article that highlighted The 5 Best Jobs Youve Never Heard Of, a remarkable four out of five were linked to the healthcare industry. In fact, healthcare jobs remain plentiful even in the face of economic uncertainty. Lets take a closer look at this phenomenon, along with which positions can expect to see particularly noteworthy growth in the years ahead. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1472832388529-0'); }); The State of HealthcareAccording to the most recent Employment Situation Summary from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, healthcare continued its juggernaut of job growth, adding 22,000 jobs in March 2015 alone. This brought the 12-month total to an additional 363,000, with ambulatory healthcare services and hospitals making particularly strong showings.A number of factors have contributed to this growth, including rising demand, retiring workers, and the ever-growing advancement of science and medicine requiring skilled technologists.No discussion of the changing face of healthcare is complete without acknowledging the massive impact of the aging Baby Boomer generation. Approximately 10,000 Baby Boomers turn 65 every day, and will continue to do so for the next 14 years. By 2030, meanwhile, nearly 20 percent of the U.S. population will be of retirement age.Not only does this represent a massive outflux of workers from healthcare positions, but it also constitutes a significant burden: the typical American over the age of 65 suffers from a number of chronic conditions, including hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Research further indicates that just five years from now, 5.6 million new healthcare jobs will exist in everything from pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturing to nursing, community, and home healthcare facilities and services.Add in the increased number of insured Americans due to healthcare reform, and the need for more healthcare professionals becomes even more critical. Where the Jobs AreAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Job Outlook breakdown, the average anticipated growth rate for all occupations between 2012 and 2022 is 11 percent. U.S. News and World Report highlighted the top health care positions by Job Outlook, including the following:Personal Care Aide: 48.8 percentHome Health Aide: 48.5 percentDiagnostic Medical Sonographer: 46 percentOccupational Therapy Assistant: 42.6 percentPhysical Therapist Assistant: 41 percentEsthetician: 39.8 percentPhysician Assistant: 38.4 percentMedical Secretary: 36 percentPhysical Therapist: 36 percentNurse Practitioner: 33.7 percentIn addition to these positions, emotional health professionals, including substance abuse and behavioral disorder counselors and marriage and family therapists, are also expected to see significant gains in job openings due to declines in stigmas which previously prevented people from seeking help.Other healthcare jobs which will continue to be in demand include dentist s, dental hygienists, physicians, pharmacists, medical equipment repairers, dieticians and nutritionists, radiologic technologists, epidemiologists, and opticians.If a challenging career which allows you to help people while also experiencing unprecedented job security sounds like a good fit to you, there are plenty of healthcare positions to choose from.
