November Job Seeker E-News: Second Interview Techniques

	NOVEMBER 2013 EDITION
	Article: Effective Ways to Maintain Work/Life Balance Article Written By: Marc Belaiche, CPA, CA & Joseph Thomas The 2012 National Study on Balancing Work and Caregiving in Canada, a survey of over 25,000 employees from public, private and not-for-profit organizations, found that nearly two-thirds of Canadians work more than 45 hours a week. The study also found that the level of life satisfaction among working Canadians is a mere 23 percent. These figures indicate that employees could find more efficient ways to handle their work and hopefully make a more positive impact on their personal lives. This article aims to look at several easy ways to try and maintain a better work/life balance. Get serious about prioritizing Employees sometimes get so caught up in day-to-day tasks that they often overlook something as simple as prioritizing their work. Taking a little time to examine, quantify and prioritize one’s workload for the day or week ahead is critical.   READ MORE TORONTOJOBS.CA • My Account • Employment Agencies • Newsletter Archives • Search Jobs • Career Resource Centre • Job Seeker FAQ • Salary Wizard CONNECT WITH US

Article: Second Interview Techniques   Article Written By: Katherine O'Brien Your resumé is a beauty and your cover letter led to an interview. Your technique dazzled and you shone. And then, surprise! You get a call for a … second interview. The second interview is not uncommon. Often, they serve to offer employers a chance to better assess a candidate's skills. Also, they might help the employer to decide between the top candidates. The basics Firstly, your regular interview skills (researching the company, showing up on time, etc.) are still important in the second interview. But there are other challenges you need to be prepared for and the follow-up interview might be a good place to figure out not only how to fit into the company but also how the company can fit into your life.

employment industry updates   Jobs creation steady, but factory employment tumbling to near-record lows Canada continues to create jobs at a steady pace, but shifts below the surface show factory employment tumbling to near-record lows while food-service firms and the health-care sector boost payrolls. Employers added 13,200 jobs last month, similar to the pace of much of this year, as public-sector hiring offset losses at private companies. The unemployment rate remained at 6.9 per cent, its lowest level in nearly five years, as job gains matched labour force growth.

The two sides were no closer to an agreement on the new Canada Jobs Grant program after a day of face-to-face talks in Toronto on Friday, with just over four months to go before the current funding agreement expires.

November 2013 Entrepreneur E-News: How to Use Consumer Recommendations to Grow Your Business

	ENTREPRENEUR E-NEWS: NOVEMBER 2013
	Article: How to Use Customer Recommendations to Grow Your Business Article Written By: Barbara Findlay Schenck At a time when one-click LinkedIn endorsements are stacking up faster than rush-hour traffic, obtaining sincerely worded recommendations is a lot like pulling into the carpool lane. You have to invest upfront in planning, personal contact and collaboration, but the effort is rewarded by access to a less-crowded environment and a quicker route to building credibility and trust. Sit back and collect endorsements LinkedIn endorsements verify what you do (though most of us on LinkedIn have been endorsed for some skill we don't possess), while recommendations detail how you do what you do and the unique value you deliver. LinkedIn endorsements are what social networkers call "lite" recommendations and what Forbes writer Eve Mayer likens to a "Stove Top stuffing version," with less "meatiness than Grandma's homemade stuffing."

In the News:   Millennials doubly likely to pursue entrepreneurship Millennials are twice as likely as the average Canadian to predict they’ll be their own boss within the year, according to new national research for Intuit. In a survey of 1,002 adults, 16 per cent of those aged 18 to 33 said they intended to fulfill their entrepreneurial dreams within the next 12 months, compared to just eight per cent of other respondents. If you do the math, it means as many as 1.2 million new businesses could be helmed by young Canadians by this time next year – assuming those polled see their plans to fruition. READ MORE Entrepreneurs must watch consumer trends to grow business: new BDC report According to a new research report released today by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), five consumer trends will have a permanent impact on Canadians' buying habits and create growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The report identifies five consumer behaviours—the buy-local movement, rising health awareness, frugality, mass customization of goods and the impact of the Internet—that have emerged as a result of advances in technology, changing demographics and the 2007-08 recession.

Article: The Delicate Balance of Good Website Design   Article Written By: Stephanie Orma When retired lawyer Michael Lowe and son-in-law John Uselton launched New Columbia Distillers, the first distillery in the nation's capital since Prohibition, they were thirsting for a website and brand that would capitalize on the story of their inaugural brew, Green Hat Gin. Paying homage to D.C.'s spirited past, the name nods to infamous bootlegger George Cassiday, whose trademark was a green fedora. As the startup's primary marketing tool, the website needed to engage the company's hip, web-savvy target demographic and feel as custom and unique as the craft distillery's limited-distribution spirits. Lowe and Uselton turned to renowned D.C. creative firm Design Army, whose clients range from The Washington Ballet to Bloomingdale's. The 11-person shop, led by husband-and-wife graphic designers Jake and Pum Lefebure, designed Green Hat's logo, with its cleverly integrated hat motif, and conceived a website that feels as if the user is flipping through old-style newspapers and catalogs from the 1920s.
