Don’t put off tomorrow what you can do today. Start today, start preparing your resume. Whether you have just graduated from school and looking for a job, or if you have studied and worked for a long time, whatever stage of life you are at, now is the time to sit down and write out your career history.

I have been helping people with their resumes and succeeding in getting an interview.

If you have never prepared a resume and are now looking at updating your C.V./resume, now is the time to do it. I will assist you step by step on how to prepare a Cover letter and a resume. I have been assisting job seekers for the past 10 years and helped them to get that first job interview within a few months.

Tips:  Here are a few tips to help you prepare for the job searching process.
Be prepared. Always keep a file of all your Certificates, and relevant documents relating to your Education, Work History, Qualifications, Awards, etc.

Keep a printed copy of your resume/CV on file as well as on your computer/cd or disc.

Update

I've been away from Blogger and had been using Wordpress and I've discovered new elements to work with in Blogger. So I will be using this from now on. Blogger has more flexibility in adjusting layouts. It is now linked to my Facebook page as well. I will be working on importing my posts from Wordpress to Blogger. Wish me luck!

Have a great day!

Time to change - I've moved to a city office

Organizing & Planning

I have been busy the last few months with working in my business and for my business. I have also moved my office to a city location (118 Queen Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Phone 9642 0270) and this has taken time and logistical skills while maintaining workflow. Researching in finding the right office has taken a couple of years. I’m a firm believer in things happening at the right time and place, there's a time and place for everything and I felt it right. I drew on all my past secretarial skills when I organized office moves for my full-time jobs when there were constant changes of moving to new locations, new offices, etc. I must say that the transfer was pretty smooth this time.

If you’re a business owner I would suggest you take a look at your business and see where you will be in 3 years time, 5 years time or 10 years time. You can either still operate in the same set up or change it, review and renew your image. There might be a few risks to take. If you want to grow, I would suggest that you take the next bold step, after considering all the pros and cons. Discuss the change with your colleagues, team members or family members, friends.

If you would like to get some ideas on moving or relocating, please get in touch with me at xpressonline@bigpond.com
