* The most problematic part of a resume for people seems to be crafting
their accomplishments. The confusion between an accomplishment and a
responsibility is the difference between generating excitement by selling
what you can do, and making a bland statement that elicits the question "So
what?" It's the difference between being invited in for an interview... and
getting no response at all.

* 4 Ways to Get Unstuck in Your Job Search
*<http://www.net-temps.com/adcgi/keywords.cgi?vendor=crossroads&kw=4187>
If you've been looking for a job for any length of time, you've probably run
into roadblocks. Weeks go by with no job interviews. Employers don't call.
And you start to feel stuck. Where can you turn for new ideas to get
"unstuck" in your job search?

* Pieces of Gold in Those Job Postings
*<http://www.net-temps.com/adcgi/keywords.cgi?vendor=crossroads&kw=4188>
Job Postings are "pieces of gold." They are your customer's (employer's)
wish lists. Any sales person would tell you that in order to sell someone
something you have to know what they need. By familiarizing yourself with
the language of the job posting you will be able to not only read the words
and the content, but you will be able to read between the lines.

* New Year, New Attitude
*<http://www.net-temps.com/adcgi/keywords.cgi?vendor=crossroads&kw=4189>
How are you going to start the new year? If you're lucky enough to have a
job, I suggest that you would be wise to assess how you are approaching it.
With a few hard years behind us, the economy still isn't where it needs to
be, and 2011 is predicted to improve in some sectors, but it's far from
robust. If you've been feeling disillusioned or even trapped by a job you
dislike, showing your true feelings could really bite you when the economy
picks up and jobs become more plentiful. So how can you maximize the job you
have now?
