I was just on “vacation” a few months ago, and started thinking about how much I really don’t use vacation when I’m on vacation. If you’re like me, you’re constantly sucked in by work, no matter if you’re on vacation or at home eating dinner with the family. If duty calls (literally), so be it. [...]

I think this is a valid question everyone needs to think about. I for one, tell it how it is. I think in the end it’s a good thing. However, I bring this question up because of a few recent situations at work and in life. Being a recruiter, you talk with multiple people on [...]

There are a lot of different ideas, questions, and discussions going around about resumes and cover letters, so I thought I’d jump in the mix. I’ve seen literally tens of thousands of resumes in my day, some terrible, some great. But all are different. My brother in-law is a recent college graduate, so I’ve been [...]

Who knows, that’s my answer….although I’ll keep writing something just because I need to fill up a little more of the page.
