Job Seekers should have some Leverage

Labels: , ,

Online search for job opportunities is common nowadays because most of us job-seekers attempt to do something sophisticated and technological not dependent anymore on the ads found in periodicals or print media. To find the best career is indispensable on account of many chances that we might get directly from the internet -- dependent upon surfing the websites that need job-applicants to fill in the vacant positions that the employers are advertising online. A number of guidelines to find the best career seem common as first priorities to take into account while the tips are second priorities to consider. Other employers categorize both as equal necessities of jobs opportunities on the part of job-seekers.

Why should we find job vacancies in the internet? What is the advantage once we open the internet and surf the websites of job-seeking opportunities? Online search helps a lot expedite application of job. In addition, it gives instant notion about the job-offerings online. Everything relies on educational attainment that is commensurate with one’s qualification. Yes, it’s true and we can’t deny the fact that finding a new job is tough these days but it is normal and inevitable.
New hires are in decline, unemployment rate goes down drastically. There’s plenty of competition and people who have jobs are making Herculean efforts to hang onto them. And, if you do manage to land a meeting with a potential employer, the contemporary job interview process is way too one-sided. Think about it. Companies can size you up like a side of beef. They can check references, implement background checks to see if you’ve been arrested or have a bad credit rating. All of them are the bad scenarios of the applicants, especially if you seek online job-hiring.

It’s high time that job-seekers have some leverage. After all, we have questions, too. So if you’re hip-deep in a job hunt online here are some points to remember;

  • Look for the job responsibilities, the perks and the pay, and
  • Is the company requirements and job descriptions are well explain?
  • How much money does it make? It means they want you for a long term.
  • How fast do they lay off employees? Are the employees happy with policies?
  • Study the organizational structures. Is it well departmental?
  • Did the employer used media for the company PR? It means they are building credibility.

All of them will help you in a little way be aware of the possible situations that the company is experiencing at present. Regular-permanent status of employment is strictly enforced and should be given top priority on two sides, the employee and the employer.

The Status of Jobs in Singapore as Affected by ASEAN

Labels: , ,

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations or ASEAN was established on August 8, 1967 in Bangkok by the 5 original member countries, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. Brunei Darussalam joined on January 8, 1984, Vietnam on July 28, 1995, Laos and Myanmar on July 23, 1997, and Cambodia on April 30, 1999. ASEAN has a total area of 4.5 million square kilometers. As of 2005, ASEAN had a total population of 558 million and a combined gross domestic product of US$876 billion.

The ASEAN declaration states that the association’s aims are:

  • to accelerate the economic growth, social progress and cultural development in the region through joint endeavors in the spirit of equality and partnership in order to strengthen the foundation for a prosperous and peaceful community of Southeast Asian Nations; and
  • to promote regional peace and stability through abiding respect for justice and the rule of law in the relationships among countries in the region and adherence to the principles of United Nations Charter.

However, ASEAN looks forward to the improvement of 3 major aspects in our community: the political, economical and societal aspects wherein a dwindling optimism is being heard about.

In its political aspect, the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation (TAC) states that ASEAN politics, security dialogue and cooperation should aim to promote regional peace and stability by enhancing regional resilience. Regional resilience shall be achieved by cooperating in all fields based on the principles of self- confidence, self- reliance, mutual respect, cooperation and solidarity which shall constitute the foundation of a strong and viable community of nations in Southeast Asia. Some of the major political records of ASEAN are ASEAN Declarations in Bangkok, Thailand, Zone of Peace, Freedom and Neutrality Declaration at Kuala Lumpur, and many more.

When ASEAN was established, economic and functional cooperation is attained. Trade among member countries was insignificant. Estimates on the 1967 ventures and the early 1970’s showed the shares of intra-ASEAN trades from the “total trade” of the member countries between 12 and 15 percent. Thus, some of the earliest economic cooperation of schemes of the ASEAN was aimed at addressing these situations. One of these was the preferential Trading Arrangement of 1977 which accorded tariff preferences for trade among ASEAN economies.

Societal Aspect improvement exists in ASEAN. Thus, ASEAN gives noble jobs to the jobless but educated people. Office works, business or doing online stuffs are some of a few jobs. Even non-educated people are given the chance as long as they have the skills and talents which would contribute to their country’s development.

Since Philippines, was once the host of the 12th Leader’s Summit of the 10- Nation Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), a lot of these blessings would fall unto us. Political improvement is expected to take place. The Philippines bountifully needs this one to break the barriers of war in the government panel and produces a responsible group of government officials. Another is the improvement of our economical aspects. Nowadays, our country’s major problem is poverty. Although people have jobs, still the salary is insufficient. The ASEAN greatly contributes to its improvement through finding ways to increase peso-dollar rates. Lastly, the societal aspect reaches its pinnacle of success through the abiding forces of members of the ASEAN.

To delve into a deeper sense, the Philippines is so lucky for having ASEAN summit in the country. It’s no longer a strange person living in a world of nowhere and following a labyrinth path that leads him to an eternal search. However, a man is now an ant which is entirely different following a one-way street towards his destination. It’s an odyssey which shoots life directly to the mouth. It’s a path that leads him to great improvement. And that is a path of the Philippines towards a bright horizon - the ASEAN Summit.

The Issue in Newly Graduate Professionals

Labels:

Young Professionals in AbroadStudents are looking forward to a prosperous career that implicates the so-called “accessible employment” after graduation, rather than inaccessible employment itself. The aim is not only for acquiring prestige, honors, diplomas, victory, etc. but also for a better career opportunity in abroad that one must benefit from what he is about to aspire and bring off materially. That’s why education is significant in consequence of the goals to be carried out and to preempt any attempt so that victory is always aimed at.

Many teachers, lecturers and skills instructor are seeking to help students learn to become sagacious and responsible individuals in our society. Through proper instruction, of course, students will acquire quality of education. As a matter of fact, those conscientious students will deem their success an incomparable victory. But, how about the happy-go-lucky students who merely passed through the “mercy of the pen” by their teachers? How about those who aspired to get honors even though these were already beyond their intellectual capacity, but were able to graduate with cum laude because of mentor’s favoritism and, likewise, of crafty cheating? Can they claim the honor of graduating with honors, a victory? While many of the cum laude could gaze at the world with pride, some will be shocked if they contemplate that theirs is a Pyrrhic victory because morally speaking, the honors they previously received will not account for the favoritism and cheating they have done to attain them. These graduates are carrying amazing grades yet in reality they are not intellect as their grades and not as skillful as their titles.

The applicants as graduates of certain courses should strive hard and be hired using the knowledge, skills and talents so that they may have the brighter future and career opportunities as part of the establishments they are aiming for or planning to plug away with. Perseverance of desired career is indispensable and it is a key to success. Everybody must bear with it until he/she gets hired and has a good job in the company.

Resume writing for Government Position

Labels: ,

Young Asian ProfessinalsThe Senior Executive Service (SES) is a group of federal employees who serve at the top levels of the U.S. government. These individuals fill federal managerial, supervisory, and policy positions above GS-15 that are not filled by presidential appointment. In order to be considered for these positions, an individual must submit an SES resume to be reviewed by an independent Qualifications Review Board who evaluates it utilizing criteria established by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).

The majority of SES positions are filled by those already in government service often for 5 or more continuous years. Further, previous leadership often at a specified series and grade is required. Therefore, most applicants requiring an SES resume have a basic federal resume to build from. However, for SES positions, it is crucial to ensure that leadership and supervisory skill is demonstrated. Therefore, it is important to revise and adjust a federal resume to reflect these attributes and skills from previous positions. The most effective manner in which to demonstrate this information is to provide a situation or example, describe the problem you faced in the situation, and then how you resolved it. Utilize key words from the job announcement to ensure that the examples in your resume meet the qualifications for the position. Anticipate your resume to be long – on average 3 to 5 pages.

Once your federal resume is updated, an addendum that addresses the “Executive Core Qualifications (ECQ’s)” must be attached. Successful candidates must demonstrate their competency in each of these five executive skill areas. The five basic ECQ’s are:

1. Leading Change
2. Leading People
3. Results Driven
4. Business Acumen
5. Building Coalitions

These ECQ’s are further broken down into 22 competencies that have been identified as needed to successfully perform in these federal positions. Additionally, there are 6 additional overall competencies that are designated as important to all five ECQs. These competencies are interpersonal skills, oral communication, integrity/honesty, written communication, continual learning, and public service motivation.
While each ECQ statement covers a separate ECQ, the competencies that are applicable to all can be addressed in general terms as warranted in the statements. The overall main focus of these ECQs is leadership and these statements should reflect this fact.

Similarly to creating content for your resume, ECQs should follow a format in which an applicant describes the situation and its context, explains the action taken to address it, and then provides the result of the action taken. Each ECQ statement should contain at least one specific job related example from the last 10 years that integrates the competencies that are linked to it. As applicable, highlight awards and recognition, volunteer experience, and training that are related to the ECQ. Finally, each ECQ statement is typically a page to a page and a half.

Together an applicant’s resume and ECQs should demonstrate the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities to succeed in federal leadership role. Ultimately those tasked with filling SES roles are seeking applicants who can foster a culture that is results driven, customer oriented, and capable of creating successful teams inside and outside an organization.
