In my career I have reviewed thousands of resumes and conducted hundreds of employment interviews for both The Trademark Company and other businesses for which I have worked. In doing so, I got to see the good, the bad, and the downright ugly in terms of resumes, interviewing skills, and the like. For other CEOs looking to hire, here's what I think makes a great candidate stand out from the good ones.
I was honestly thinking about putting up a blog post at some point on how to have a successful interview. And perhaps I still will someday. But for the time being, I couldn't not repost this article, which is so wonderfully written and has examples galore.
If you are job hunting, definitely take all of this into consideration!
I WOULD LOVE TO FIND A JOB THAT I CAN DO FROM HOME. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY?
Not off the top of my head! If you provide a good or service, you can start up your own small business (design, crafts, etc). Otherwise I think you’d have to be a consultant on something you specialize in – bookkeeping? Event planning? I am not a sales person but there are probably sales jobs you can do at home.
