Principle Driven Lifestyle. (IBYC)
Read this without failure...
Perhaps the name S. Truett Cathy in modern times doesn't ring a bell at-a-glance. That' okay!
Well, if I say, S. Truett Cathy, Founder of Chick-fil-A in 1946, presently 3,424 locations and climbing can inspire your focus.
S. Truett Cathy was an American businessman, investor, author, and philanthropist who was committed to the power of principles.
His one Christian principle which still holds true today is, "closed for business on Sundays."
Case and Point: A single principle combined with focus can make a big difference in life. Are you still searching for a job as illustrated below?
Then, combine your one single principle with a strong sense of focus, and everything else falls-in-place.

why your experience makes sense for this particular position?
Given your background I'd change my thinking on what a cover letter has to be. Instead of just another version of your CV its real purpose is to explain why your experience makes sense for this role.
For three paragraphs I'd keep it straightforward:
Paragraph 1: Why you want to work in this specific role and organisation.
Paragraph 2: Two concrete examples of experiences that you draw upon. Don't write 'strong communications skills,' write how, as a comms intern/newsroom assistant/writer you used communications skills.
Paragraph 3: Show how the above experiences coupled with your economics/sociology studies made you a good candidate for this post.
Finish with your short paragraph saying thank you.
Where the application is not to your exact previous job then focus on transferable skills rather than saying there is not a direct match with your previous roles. Research, writing, communications, analysis, interviewing skills, working with different stakeholders etc. Can be transferred between public policy, NGO work, communications, journalism and other roles at an entry-level.
Also I would write a master cover letter that I can modify rather than start again every time. This could contribute to easing the burden on yourself. #jobsearch #interview #resume #application #advice

Build Your (Field of Dreams) They Will Come! [IBYC]
Read this without procrastination!
Isn't it true, that many people generally believe in other people, places and things, more than they believe in themselves?
Sadly, they lose out on the treasures of life.
If you develop your courage, faith and strength and believe in yourself as with a grain of salt, then, everything else will fall-in-place.
Build your (field of dreams), they will come!
I Believe You Can!

Verify Job Announcements Beforehand. [IBYC]
Would you verify a meal when they place it on the table? Or would you take it, as it is? Tell me the truth.
Didn't you order the roast beef from the menu and say..."well-done with green peppers on the side?"
A strategic question, for a simple answer, okay?
Now, would you verify the contents of your meal when eating at a new restaurant? Or would you take it, as it appears because of the reasonable cost?
The same holds true when receiving job announcements from recruiters. You have to verify the contents of offer before sending them your resume.
Best business practices always verify information contents management for taking action. Because some things can cause more harm than good.
Then, everything else falls-in-place.
That's the best way to win.

Would like to return to nursing in some capacity
Retired in 2018 after falling and having to have a shoulder replacement. Worked in my early years in hospital setting, doctor offices, research, assisted living and home health. My years of experience have been valuable asset in fostering relationships with patients, families and associates. #resume
Is the job still open for the P. Assistant for 800.00 a week?
I recommend checking the company's website or Jobcase, Indeed, and other job search providers for the most up-to-date job listings. Ensure your resume is updated and tailored to the Personal Assistant role before applying. Good luck!
I only want to work part-time from home monday thru friday 9 to 1 #resume
I think one piece of career advice has quietly become outdated.
For years we've been told:
"Always chase the next promotion."
I'm not sure that's always the right answer anymore.
Sometimes the better move is:
learning a skill that will be valuable five years from now working for a manager who will invest in your growth joining a company where you'll solve bigger problems taking a lateral move that opens more doors later staying put long enough to build real expertise
The best career decision isn't always the one that gives you the biggest title today.
Sometimes it's the one that creates the most opportunities tomorrow.
I've started thinking less about "What's my next job?"
And more about:
"What decision gives Future Me the most options?"
That one question has completely changed how I look at careers.
What's the best career decision you ever made that didn't make sense to other people at the time?

what do you think makes the biggest difference?]
For those who’ve applied for jobs with limited experience, what do you think makes the biggest difference: a strong reference, a well-written resume, relevant skills, or personal connections? I’d be interested to hear what actually worked for you. #jobsearch #interview #resume #advice #application
Were are they hiring in my area
A good reference, and skills explaining what you are good at that make you a valuable asset to whatever company that your applying for
One thing I've been thinking about lately...
Most of us only think seriously about our careers when something forces us to.
A layoff.
A bad manager.
Burnout.
A recruiter reaching out.
A missed promotion.
Then we update the resume, start applying, and try to figure everything out under pressure.
What if we thought about our careers the same way we think about our finances or our health?
Not only when something goes wrong.
But continuously.
I've become convinced that the biggest career advantage isn't having the best resume.
It's consistently making better career decisions before the next crisis ever happens.
I'm curious...
What's one career decision you wish you had handled differently—and what did it teach you?
