Who are you to IGNORE Me?

The Biggest Hiring Mistake You Can Make 
Growing companies tend to be inundated with job applications. Sure, its pain to respond to everyone, but Inc.com columnist Jeff Haden says you are making a big mistake if you don't. Here's why:

Its disrespectful to potential employees: People pay your business the highest compliments of all by saying they would like to work for you; after all, it means they would like to spend more time with you than their families. Why is it OK for you to ignore them?

It's terrible PR: Job applicants are often excited about your business, and they tend to share that enthusiasm with friends. If you don't respond, they won't complain to you--but they will certainly complain about you.

Sidenote:We all know how frustrating it is to search for jobs... especially when we need one like yesterday! Back in the day we could easily show our initiative to become employed by waking up early, dressing up and being at the front door with resume and cover letter in hand. Consequently things have changed!
There are now electronic systems that determine how far your resume will go (Look it up). Keywords are becoming the determining factor when submitting resumes (ex. Degrees, adjectives, statistics).


The lady that you use to give your resume/application to in hopes of her turning it in to Human Resources is MISSING...




Be aware of the changes within the workforce....everything important is not always in BOLD print nor is it always the HEADLINE.

Did Y'all know?

Keeping it in the Family Did y'all know that Raheem  (Khalil  Kain) from Juice was Maino's "Hi Hater" brother? Welp, I didn't and found it to be another case of "Keeping it in the family'.  (Don't get me wrong, Maino isn't a star or anything but he aight.) But anyway, once someone in the family makes it...chances are you will too (if you play your cards tight) simply because you'll be in "The Know" crowd.  Brothers-9 Years Apart                                                                  PS. I posted this because Khalil Kain was my baby daddy back in the day. (You aint know) lol 

Black History Month for ALL to Enjoy

So as we head towards the end of Black History Month, I decided to provide some insight on those we may not have learned about in school. LESSON! I randomly selected the Super Stars below to help me Show Off this week. Some of us put so many barriers up in Life that prevents us from accomplishing our goals. I'm Sleepy, I just got off work, and I'm tired are just few of the familiar phrases we often hear and say. I'm almost positive that those before us would laugh at the excuses we make so we can just chill. The Good news is that it's never too late for a Fresh New start. I hope the people below will inspire you to see that anything is possible with consistency, dedication and motivation. *Copy and Paste the Links below to your browser for more info  Ballerina    Michaela DePrince From:  A Remote orphanage in Sierra Leone “Who would want to adopt a girl who looks like you?” The orphanage staff would tell her. http://blackgirllonghair.com/2015/08/micha...
