Just can't wait to get on the road again.” – Willie Nelson It's 6am and the car is waiting outside your house to take you to the airport. Bag and briefcase in hand, you head out to the car for the beginning of yet another tiring business trip. You think back to the beginning of your career when you could not wait for the time when you would get to travel for business. A couple of too many trips later, there is nothing you would like better than to be stuck behind your desk with no travel at all. Grueling as it all is, you are on the road again for better or for worse.

4 Ways To Write Yourself To A Job From Someone Who Knows

Simple tips from a web content writer about how you can easily use your most basic skill to attract jobs online. This is a guest post by Marina Shemesh. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. What not to do online We have all heard the cautionary tales of being careful about what you post on the Internet. Recruitment officers like nothing better than Googling potential employees to dig up some dirt about why they should NOT hire you. If you are looking for work, it is better not to boast that you are one serious party animal on Facebook. Blog posts and comments should be fine-combed for the smallest grammar and spelling mistakes and you really shouldn’t Twitter a daily tip on how to grow awesome cannabis. Just one inappropriate photo of you with a can of beer in your hand and you can kiss that dream job goodbye darling! No wonder the most of us only have a boring, half-baked profile on LinkedIn.

If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. Every year McDonald's sells 560 million Big Macs a year. That's crazy! Over half a billion.

6 Standout Job Interview Tips From A Professional Interviewer

What can make the difference between a “blah” and an “ah” interview. This a guest post by Nettie Feldman. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. I’m here to give you a simplified version of how to ace the interview, especially for those who get tongue-tied or simply aren’t good interviewees. So you’re not good interview material? Says who? 1) Look memorable We’ve been relying on the drab, “proper” attire that’s supposed to show our seriousness and professionalism. And then we end up acting blah, too. I’m not saying you ought to dress eccentrically, but what about an unexpected flash of color in your glasses (I wear those multicolor Ronit Furst glasses, and loads of people – including interviewers – ask me where to get them). Or an unusual shirt that’s styled differently or has a different color (but no Florida shirts, please). The key: stand out without looking too way out.

Why Job Seekers Need To Be Like Millers

The importance of trying to create your own job opportunities. This is a guest post by Ed Han. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob, follow these guest post guidelines. There are many truths about job search Some truths are uniquely personal while others are of broad applicability. It’s one of the latter I want to discuss today: why you should consider changing your profession to miller. And I suspect that by the time you’re done reading, you’ll be have a lot more sympathy for the notion than when you first began reading. By way of explanation, I’d like to begin by talking about a friend. My friend Donna Svei, an executive career coach, recently posted a blog entry about the importance of using shorter sentence structures—no more than 25 words in any sentence. I was astounded to read the word limit: the only other time I ever encountered it was junior year of college. I could hear the professor’s words as he explained that New York Times headlines are 25 or fewer words.
