The Five Things Job Recruiters Want From You Now By Young Jerome - Friday, June 11 With too many people looking for too few jobs, employers are being very selective and demanding more than ever from job candidates. Marketing yourself with a resume that simply explains the things you've done in previous positions is not enough. Employers want to understand your ability to add value through results and your potential contribution to the bottom line. Recruiters are looking for people with strong records of accomplishment who stand out from others, because that's whom they can easily sell to hiring managers. At www.AttractJobsNOW.com, as we recruit for corporate clients, we look for candidates who provide the five following qualifications, which we've found hiring managers deem essential: 1. Expertise. In a field where many people have very similar job titles, what makes you stand out? If you have trouble defining your expertise, start by listing your responsibilities at your latest and previous positions and then prioritize them in order of their value to the business. Mark the tasks where you provided substantial results. Then you'll see your expertise. 2. Success stories. Have you increased revenue or profit? Have you decreased costs or minimized risk? Tell concise success stories of how you met these goals and you'll make yourself an exceptional candidate. To identify those success stories you must understand how your position and your accomplishments clearly helped the bottom line of the business. That allows you to explain the value you've provided in the past and can offer in the future. 3. Recommendations. A recommendation from a manager or colleague is far more valuable than any self-endorsement. LinkedIn lets you show recommendations right on your profile, which creates instant credibility. Be sure to ask recommenders for write-ups that explain your concrete contributions and value to specific projects or areas of business. Ideally you should ask for a recommendation right after you've provided those results, as that's when your value is most appreciated. I offer examples of effective professional recommendations on my own LinkedIn profile at www.linkedin.com/in/jeromeyoung. 4. Work samples. Examples of what you've done are far more effective that just talking about what you've done. Websites, pictures of products and actual products themselves grab an employer's attention and generate interest. I have offered employers a slide show with pictures of me working, just so they can visualize me effectively laboring in their behalf. 5. A consistent message. Your resume, cover letter, website, LinkedIn profile and interview remarks should all promote a consistent message. If you change the message in one of those places, update the others. At www.AttractJobsNOW.com we recommend that whenever a client receives our r�sum� and cover letter service, they update their LinkedIn profile as well. An inconsistent message clouds the credibility of your accomplishments. As you conduct your job search, remember that recruiters are evaluated by their ability to find a few of the most highly qualified candidates for any position. The more confident a recruiter feels about your accomplishments and ability to meet the needs of hiring managers, the more interested he or she will be in you as a candidate. Help yourself along by making sure you've covered the five points above. Jerome Young is the founder and president of www.AttractJobsNOW.com, a diversity recruiting and job search consulting firm.

Football coach Benitez leaves Liverpool by mutual consent AFP - 45 minutes ago LIVERPOOL (AFP) - – Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez has left Anfield by mutual consent, the Premier League club confirmed on Thursday. The 50-year-old's position had been in doubt since it emerged on Wednesday that talks over his future with Reds chairman Martin Broughton and managing director Christian Purslow had broken down. His departure had looked inevitable after reports emerged that he had fallen out with the Anfield hierarchy over the lack of funds available to him to rebuild a squad which finished seventh in the Premier League last season and failed to get past the group stage of the Champions League. Benitez had suggested he would require in excess of 50 million pounds to put the club back in contention for the Champions League places and even more to contend for the Premier League title. But he was reportedly told that only 15 million pounds would be available for signings because Liverpool had failed to qualify for the lucrative Champions League. Liverpool have agreed a settlement with him over the remainder of his four-year contract, which was said to include a 16 million pounds severance clause. Benitez, who had been in charge of Liverpool since 2004 and guided them to Champions League glory in 2005, admitted he was disappointed to be leaving. "It is very sad for me to announce that I will no longer be manager of Liverpool FC. I would like to thank all of the staff and players for their efforts," he told the club's website. "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. "I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. "Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone." It has also been suggested that Benitez had lost the support of key players after Fernando Torres, Steven Gerrard and Javier Mascherano were all strongly linked with moves away from Merseyside. With Inter Milan keen on luring Benitez to the San Siro to take over after Jose Mourinho's switch to Real Madrid, the Liverpool boss has no reason to stay where he is not wanted. Benitez joined Liverpool in 2004 after a successful spell with Valencia and led the club to a famous Champions League final victory over AC Milan in Istanbul in 2005. But although he won the FA Cup a year later and returned to the Champions League final in 2007, where the Reds were beaten by AC Milan, it is Benitez's failure to end Liverpool's 20-year wait for the league title that started to rankle with fans who had previously been steadfast in their support for him. He was unable to build on a second-placed finish in 2008-09 and Liverpool ended last season 23 points behind champions Chelsea. Broughton gave thanks to Benitez for his achievements in Europe but crucially made it clear that his failure to mount a strong challenge for the Premier League title had played a major role in his depature. He said: "Rafa will forever be part of Liverpool folklore after bringing home the Champions League following the epic final in Istanbul but after a disappointing season both parties felt a fresh start would be best for all concerned." Club Ambassador Kenny Dalglish, a former Liverpool player and manager, will assist Broughton in the search for a successor to Benitez. Roy Hodgson, who led unfashionable Fulham to the UEFA Cup final, Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill and Turkey coach Guus Hiddink are among the leading contenders to take over at Anfield.

WOW !!!...U'll definitely luv the BLUE...no regrets !

Singaporeans slammed for being rude in Australian newspaper By Angela Lim – June 2nd, 2010 It’s no secret that Singapore is a “campaign city”. The National Courtesy Campaign, Speak Good English Movement, the Singapore Kindness Movement and even toilet campaigns like “Aim Right”, “Wash Your Hands Right”, “Don’t Wet The Floor” are clear testaments to this. But Sydney Morning Herald writer Tamara Thiessen takes this a step further in a provocative piece entitled “Singaporeans asked to chew on their manners” that was published on the newspaper’s website on May 31. In it, she questions the level of courtesy and graciousness in Singaporeans as well as how constant reminders to be courteous have to be “thrust down their thoats daily”. The article further goes to portray Singapore as a regimentally law-abiding and clean country, where “happiness and civility need…outside enforcement”. But despite the city-state’s spick-and-span spaces free of chewing gum and spit, “there is no assurance of finding good manners and a caring society”, she writes. An IT manager from Sydney who is based in Singapore, Paul Stapleton, is quoted in the article saying, “They (Singaporeans) are the rudest f***ing people I have ever seen; they need some basic training in civic awareness. They don’t feel that anyone else exists outside this tiny island.” Another long-time British resident staying here added, “The problem is the sole concern of most Singaporeans is money and economic well-being. The only reason the churches here are packed to the rafters is because people attend in order to network.” General manager of the Singapore Kindness Movement, Teh Thien Yew, is also quoted in the paper as saying, ”Levels of indifference and unhappiness are still high … we are all concerned about graciousness in our country.” Invariably, every society has its fair share of bad social graces. But is it fair for an Australian or Briton to pass judgement on Singaporeans as a whole based on personal experience and a few opinions? A 24-year-old Singaporean student, who wanted to be known as Jen, told Yahoo! Singapore that Thiessen’s article is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. “Who is the writer to say that Singaporeans make up an ungracious society? Yes, there may be some rude people in Singapore. But there are always bad eggs in every society. Personally, I’ve met my fair share of rude Australians while studying there, but I don’t dismiss Australia as a country of ungracious people.” To Singaporeans’ credit, according to the State of Graciousness in Singapore Survey, people here conducted themselves better on public transport over the past year. Also, the country’s “Graciousness Index” — an indication of how citizens rate the level of graciousness within society — climbed 3 points from 58 to 61 in the same time. Having said that, while Thiessen’s article borders on being one-sided and slightly extreme, could the ugly truth be that she’s actually right? After all, in the same survey, only 37% out of 1,000 Singaporeans interviewed were happy with the level of graciousness in the city-state. In light of such harsh criticism, do you agree that the level of courtesy and graciousness in Singapore society leaves much to be desired? Are state campaigns effective in inculcating kindness and consideration in local citizens?

Foyce Le: Call me a gold-digger, I don’t care By Angela Lim – May 31st, 2010 29-year-old singer-actress Foyce Le, better known as one of the women involved in the Jack Neo scandal, is making headlines again. Le announced that she would be getting married on her Facebook page two weeks ago. However, the identity of her would-be suitor remains a mystery. In an interview with The New Paper, Le revealed that the marriage proposal she expects on her birthday on Tuesday comes barely a month after they began dating. She tells TNP, “I won’t call him my boyfriend because we’ve never been together. He’s a decisive man who has told me he wants to marry me.” All that she revealed about Mr. A, her 30-year-old, 1.73m tall mystery man, is that he is an oil tycoon’s son who owns a high-end jewellery store on Orchard Road, has “three houses on Newton Road and owns many cars”. Le did not hesitate to tell the paper that she was attracted by his wealth and “high social status”. The two had lost touch with each other until earlier this year when Le made the headlines for claiming local director Jack Neo made advances on her six years ago. In the midst of the saga, Mr. A found her on Facebook and sent her a message. And so began their whirlwind month-long romance. Then just two weeks ago, he told her he would propose with a rare pink diamond ring on her birthday. So why would she think of marrying someone she’s only been seeing for a month? “I definitely would enjoy being a tai tai (lady of luxury). Yes Mr. A is very suited for me. We enjoy the same kind of lifestyle,” she told the paper. She also reveals that previous boyfriends dumped her because of her “princess-like” behaviour. “I expect my boyfriend to wait for me and pick me up from work often. Perhaps this is what guys mean when they complain that I am too ‘princess-like’. I also like to dress up and be wined and dined at nice places,” she explains. And yet, the singer-actress has no qualms about appearing materialistic. She says, “I know a lot of people will say that I’m a gold-digger but I don’t care. I have very high expectations of my partner. Let’s just say I’ve been wanting to get married for a very long time.” This is not the first time Le has made headlines. During the recent scandal earlier this year involving film-director Neo, she claimed he was invited by her then J-Team boss to a hotel room in 2004. Some accused her of cashing in on the scandal to gain fame. She also filed a police report in the wake of the scandal, claiming her life had been threatened.
