Want to know what the Hottest Jobs are?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor,
and other sources, recently released 10-year employment projections
show total employment in the U.S. growing by 14 percent through 2008,
which is slightly lower than the 17 percent growth in employment
during the 1988-1998 period.
The five
fastest occupations are all technology related: computer
engineers, computer support specialists, systems analysts,
database administrator, and desktop publishing specialists
– adding about 1.5 million jobs to the workforce.

Avoiding these Interview mistakes could win you the job.
Even though
we're still enjoying one of the hottest job markets in decades,
career advisors warn that you still won't land your dream
job if you don't do well at the job interview.
Many job
hunters unwittingly sabotage their own chances by making
common, but easily avoidable, interview mistakes. They will
agonize over their resumes and cover letters but rehearse
only minutes for what arguably is the most vital step in the
whole job hunting process.
Here are
five common interviewing blunders that can cost you the job:

eMail Nettiquette
While e-mail has opened new lines of communication
between job seeker and employers, it is imperative that job
seekers follow suggested rules of "netiquette" when using
this option. In the real world of work, manners are
expected. If an applicant is too casual or familiar in their
approach, electronically or otherwise, an employer is
turned-off immediately. Communicate professionally at all
times.

Are You A Job Hopper?
Better Watch Out
Over
the past decade, job-hopping has become the rage, with
executives bouncing from employer to employer in search of
higher salaries, bigger perks and more stock options. It's
been especially true in the technology arena, but let's face
it: The job-jumping craze has infected just about all of
Corporate America. One result is that a deep swath has been
cut through the management ranks at many companies. Some top
executives are so concerned that they have made keeping and
finding talent their No. 1 priority.
But the
movement toward ever-more-frenetic job-jumping may be about
to reverse. What some overly mobile employees are just now
beginning to realize is that job-hopping can be dangerous to
their health, wealth and resume. The biggest danger is not
the stress of taking on new jobs, the agony job relocation
can bring to working spouses or school-age kids, or even the
fact that all those supposedly valuable stock options can
end up worthless. No, the main threat posed by frantic
job-jumping may prove to be the damage it can do to one's
career.

editors note - Jeff will
conduct a seminar on this subject at the NeoCon Tradeshow in
Chicago June 18 from 1-2PM Room 216. On-site sign up is
available, stop by Booth I440 for a complimentary pass to
the seminar.

The
Internet is quickly becoming one of the leading
resources in recruitment today. It is a fact that
67% of all job seekers go to the net. Due to a number of
factors such as; a shrinking workforce, a definite
skills shortage and reduced job loyalty. Traditional
hiring methods are rapidly losing ground to more
innovative solutions. The Internet offers benefits to
candidates and employers in streamlining the process.
Now, most employers will tell you that the Internet does
not streamline anything, in fact the opposite is often
true. This is where I and most of Career Experts agree,
you should call in a specialist.
Many professional recruiting firms, including my own,
have been developing Net based recruiting teams. These
professional sourcing experts have learned to utilize
the Internet to it's fullest. Finding hidden resources
that would otherwise be overlooked. Filtering out the
mass response "applicants". Usually this service is
referred to as eRecruiting or Internet Based
Recruiting. It typically is a fraction of a standard
recruiting fee and is always a better value than trying
to do it yourself.

How Secure is Your Job?
Ok, things seems a little different lately around the water cooler, in
fact one thing is, the water cooler's missing. Is it just budget
concerns and belt tightening due to the economy or is your company
really facing hard times? Here is a simple checklist to give you a
heads up.

Headhunter Calls
- What's Ok?
You are sitting in your office having another reasonably
miserable day. From out of the blue a person calls
sounding like your long lost best friend. Guess what?
...they may just be. Recruiter calls are a fact of life and
most good employees can expect to be called. Top candidates
may get flooded with calls.
Some
employers take a negative view to talking with recruiters.
However, most understand it is normal to expect it when you
have good employees. You recruiter can help you in a number
of areas and usually has openings available that aren't
offered elsewhere. What is the best way to deal with one?

Is Your Summer Vacation Just another commute?
The classic American vacation is short. CBS News Sunday
Morning Correspondent Martha Teichner reports. "When
it comes to time off among the industrialized nations, the
United States is dead last," says Joe Robinson, editor of
Escape, an adventure travel magazine. "We're in the
basement."
"Europeans get, in general, four, five, and six weeks off.
Australians, the same," he says. "We average about eight or
nine days after the first year on the job."

Q.
I have recently been promoted to a new position which
requires me to assemble my own management team. I will have
to find and hire many of these associates from outside.
Would I be better to go to one of the large resume banks,
place ads or what?
Dean, NJ
A.
Dean, good to hear
from an employer. is is a changing climate in HR today. We are
faced with an ever shrinking pool of talent. Today companies use a
combination of techniques in order to find, or source talent.
Advertising was the first way to find talent and the resume was
the tool of choice. Today the Internet as a communication channel
changes many interactions and makes it easy for corporations to
maintain relationships with prospective candidates.
