How to Handle Job Interview Stress
How to Handle Job Interview StressHow to Handle Job Interview StressAre you looking for a job and stressed over bewerbungsinterviewing? Yure not alone. Job interviews can be tough, even if you have gone on a lot of them. The high level of anxiety around interviewing can make life difficult, andeven sabotage your chances of landing a job. Some anxiety around interviews is normal and can sharpen your focus as a candidate. On the other hand, if youre stressed, youre not going to interview well. The key to interview success is to keep anxiety under control, so the level of stress is manageable. Here are some tips for managingpre-interview and during the job interview jitters, so you more easily handle the process, avoid stress, and ace your interviews. Prepare Thorough preparation can go a long way toward easing interview stress. Identify your most relevant skills, and be ready to share examples or anecdotes showing how you applied those strengths to work, volunteer, academic or co-c urricular roles, and how you have generated some positive results. Here are tips on how to prepare for a job interview. If you are interviewing out of town or in another state, there are some more steps you can take to prepare for a successful interview. If youre an introvert, interviews can be really stressful. Review these interview tips for introverts to help you get ready. Research Research your target company thoroughly, and be prepared to share why the employer and job in focus match your interests. Heres how to research a company. Practice The adage practice makes perfect applies to interviews. The more familiar interviewing feels to you, the less anxiety you will feel about the process. Meet with advisers, mentors, and friends for mock or practice interviews. Conduct as many informational interviews as possible with alumni or personal contacts to gain confidence in sharing information about your background. Search Vigorously Conduct a vigorous job search to gener ate as many interviews as possible. The stress associated with anyone interview will likely be lower if you have many other irons in the fire. Heres more on how to job search effectively. Try to Avoid Negative Thinking Stress around interviews is often influenced by our assumptions or the statements we make to ourselves about the process. Identifying and countering anxiety-provoking thoughts can help to lower levels of anxiety.Some of the negative thoughts that can up your anxiety level include I have to land this job, or I will be hopelessly unemployed. Counter this thinking with statements emphasizing that no one interview will determine your work future. There will be other options and other chances to land a good job. I just messed up that answer, Im toast, and Ill never be hired here. One poor answer normally does not knock a candidate out of consideration. An interview is like a test, getting an 85 or 90 might be good enough to land the job. Im afraid that they will ask me a question which stumps me and Ill look foolish. If you are well prepared, you will normally be able to share some answer which reflects positively on your strengths. If you are truly stumped, then say something like Thats a great question, can I give that some additional consideration and get back to you? You might even supply the answer in question as part of your follow up communication. Theres no way Im qualified for this job. Mentally review your qualificationsrepeatedly prior to the interview to convince yourself that you have the right stuff. Focus on Success Many athletic and job coaches believe that visualizing images of success can improve performance and alleviate anxiety. Try frequently imagining positive interactions with your interviewer, particularly in the hours immediately before your interview. Counselors recommend relaxation techniques, such as progressive muscle relaxation or breathing exercises as a way to manage anxiety. There are other strategies you c an use to handle job search stress, as well. If your anxiety around interviewing is excessive, then you might consider engaging a psychologist in identifying the underlying issues and helping you to develop effective coping strategies. One other point to remember is that if you dont get this job, there will be another one. It just wasnt meant to me. Consider it a learning experience and move forward to the next opportunity.

How to set boundaries with a new employee as a manager
How to set boundaries with a new employee as a managerHow to set boundaries with a new employee as a managerWe all want to be liked, but leadership requires a lot more than that.We originally assigned this article to someone else. Kaitlin King, specifically, a long-time contributor who we can always count on for high-quality articles, clever banter, and thoughtful advice. So I definitely wasnt expecting to get a note from zu sich saying she was stuck - completely and utterly - when it came to writing the article. Ugh, I think I just kinda suck at this topic myself and actually need to read this article written by someone else to learn from it, she said. I dont think I have enough authority, understanding or perspective to write on it.I hope I havent offended Kaitlin by outing her like this, but I have a point and its this our goal at Career Contessa is to address the tough subjects that no one else covers and, sometimes, that means we find we dont know what to say. At all.In thinki ng about establishing boundaries with an employee, my personal experience comes up lacking, too. I could definitely write an essay on what not to do. So with two writers officially stumped, I decided to take an alternative approach I emailed two of our mentors to ask them to answer the question for me. And I did a hefty amount of research. Heres the ultimate management game planThe problem with being a nice baboIn an article for Slate, Laura Smith describes her own failed experience at playing it cool as the owner of her first businessI allowed my coffee shop to become characterized by permissiveness. Some took advantage of this permissiveness by making up excuses for being late, or by trying to do as little work as possible. Those who didnt take advantage became resentful of the other employees, and of me. It brought out the worst in everyone.For fruchtwein of us just starting out in management (hey, Im right there with you), its easier to remember past terrible bosses - the ones that were cold or conniving, too strict or just plain absurd - than it is to remember the ones who werent all that bad. You fear getting dubbed a horrible boss, and youre desperate to not lose face in front of your colleagues - after all, youre a nice person. So you think What if I just play it cool?Well, theres a cool parent archetype for a reason (think Amy Poehler as Regina Georges mom in Mean Girls). Failure to assert boundaries inevitably equals a failure in leadership, resulting in a parent whos susceptible to disrespect and, worse, mockery.To imply that managing a team is like parenting is a bit problematic, but there are certainly parallels. For a relationship, personal or professional, to function properly there must be a common understanding and clear structure. In her piece, Smith goes on to arguefruchtwein people are only as good as their systems allow them to be The idea that we must tell adults what to do and exactly how to do it is a hard pill to swallow for most But instead of thinking of it as telling people what to do, what if we see it as simply providing people with boundaries? Thats closer to something palatable, although the paternalism still makes me cringe.So playing too nice will ruin us, but playing hardball means were treading a fine line between leadership and despotism. How do you hit that sweet spot - not a jerk, not a doormat - that sets you up for managerial success?Boundaries first, boundaries secondFirst impressions really do mean a lot, parteicularly for bosses. You have to start strong.Within any relationship, its human nature to want to be liked and wanting to be liked is often the greatest barrier in establishing boundaries as a new manager, says CC mentor, Kara Brothers-Phillip, who works as a strategy lead at Google.As a manager, your primary responsibility is to create an environment where your team members are able to reach their full potential. Being liked is nice, but being viewed as an effective and trustworth y leader is far more important.1. Set Personal Boundaries ASAPSo how do you build that trust? According to PsychCentral, by schauplatz boundaries early - as soon as you start the job - and by consistently sticking to them yourself. Youll need to clearly communicate your own limits as well as your expectations For instance, if you dont want your colleagues and clients to contact you at all hours, verbally tell them the hours you will be available for work-related conversations.Leading by example is a very real thing. In fact, in a recent interview, the founder of the social media game-changer, Meet Edgar, Laura Roeder, argues that its actually essential. You can say, Dont email in the evening. But then if the owners of the company are always sending you emails in the evening, its implied that maybe youre supposed to respond. Based on this logic, MeetEdgar has a strict no evenings, no weekends email policy - and Roeder abides by it.2. Create a Real Structure (With Schedules, Agenda s, Feedback Loops )Boundaries get blurry when you arent meeting with your team regularly. This is one element I can speak to. As Career Contessa has grown over the past year, weve added several new people to our team. Suddenly, off-the-cuff meetings or lunch chats about upcoming projects just werent working anymore. In fact, the result was chaos and maybe (OK, actually) some tears.Without touching kusine in structured, recurring meetings, we were all starting to feel like we were spinning. Now we have all-team meetings that happen weekly complete with detailed agendas, plus regular check-ins with Lauren, CCs founder. Oh and weve added one more incredible structural detail Basecamp.No matter how creative you are or how creative your team is, youve got to commit to a clear organizational plan. And since youre the boss, that plan falls on you. Youll design, lead, and maintain it. As Jill Jacinto, Associate Director of WORKS puts it, youll need to create an atmosphere of transparency a nd make koranvers to articulately delegate tasks and responsibilities.If you expect your team to make deadlines and follow your rules, you have to make sure the team understands what those deadlines and rules are.Give them the benefit of the doubt1. Believe In Your Team First, Doubt Them SecondWe all know the pitfalls of playing it too strict. Maybe you had a military regimented household growing up or maybe you just remember a horrible elementary school teacher who didnt allow you room to breathe, let alone get creative. Management requires placing a little faith in your leadership team.Says Jacinto Employees want to feel needed and respected. Do not be condescending, share your viewpoints with them, your strategy and ask for them to contribute.When Roeder launched MeetEdgar, shed never been a boss before. I had never hired anyone. I had never been anyones superior in any way. But a lot of that, honestly, was a blessing in disguise because I never had to unlearn bad corporate behav iors, says Roeder, A lot of the ways that Ive managed people is just respect people, assume that people are doing their best.We take jobs knowing full well that theyre going to be an integral part of our lives. So why assume that your employees arent doing the best they can? Give every person you supervise enough space and freedom to get their work done, plus take some risks along the way.If they mess up, you can address it then, but dont assume they will simply because you dont know how they work yet or you think they lack experience. Let them try, remain open and available to them so they feel comfortable soliciting your feedback, then wait.And in the event that they do mess up (just like you), make sure theres a road for them to regain trust. One mistake doesnt warrant ostracisation.2. Instead of Forcing Unity, Plan For DifferencesDont assume that you need to regulate someone simply because they work differently than you. Instead plan, adapt, and compensate for those differences. You can regulate how work gets done to an extent, but you should also accept feedback and hold regular meetings with each of your employees to see how theyre feeling and what they need to get the work done. Maybe they do better with strict deadlines, maybe they thrive when theyre planning their own hours. By adapting your environment to suit multiple work styles, youll set yourself up for a more productive work day all around.3. Recognize That Your Work Isnt Earth-ShatteringHere at Career Contessa, when were stressing about getting the editorial calendar in order before one of us goes on vacation or about what will happen when the marketing manager gets sick, we can count on Lauren to say, This isnt brain surgery.And shes right. If an article fails to publish one Tuesday morning, or if theres a glaring typo in our weekly newsletter, were not harming anyone. Were probably annoying people, and were certainly going to be embarrassed, but were not neurosurgeons responsible for saving l ives.That logic can and should be applied to anything you do. Its not that you need to tell your employees that they dont need to worry about the work theyre doing, but keeping it all in perspective is key.Expect your employees to do their jobs and do them well. Hold them responsible for their mistakes (the key word here is their - team mistakes are team mistakes, and youre part of them). But if a f*ck up happens? Treat it with the weight it deserves.No exaggerated panic attacks, no yelling, no shaming, no team meeting roasts. Your team will respect you that much more for keeping sight of what really matters- like getting the work done and done well so that everyone can go home to their families and friends and actually get a good nights rest.We take jobs knowing full well that theyre going to be an integral part of our lives. So why assume that your employees arent doing the best they can?What if theres a real issue?This is the least fun part of the article, but Im sure, like me, you were wondering what if an employee does something bad? Like, really bad. How do I respond?There will always be employees who miss a meeting, blow a sales demo, clash with higher-ups and it is your job to fix this issue ASAP, says Jacinto A good leader always keeps their temper under wraps. Have a private meeting with the team member and give them the opportunity to explain their actions. Next, let them know that mistakes happen and how they approached the solution (or whatever it may be) was unacceptable and needs to be course corrected. Give them guidance on how to move forward, create an open door policy. Explain to them why and how their actions affect the companys bottom line. Depending on the severity of their behavior, be firm in your response. Let them know the type of behavior you expect to see and work with day in and day out and what will not be tolerated.Brothers-Phillips agrees that you should have the conversation in private, but argues that you should bring up thei r behavior in relation to the big picture In your conversation, reinforce that your primary responsibility is to your company and part of that responsibility means creating an atmosphere of fairness within the team. You value them as a team member, however, his or her behavior could be jeopardizing how others view your dedicated loyalty to everyone and you need them to stop doing x,y,z behavior in the best interest of the team.All in all, theres a pretty clear theme here transparency, honesty, and open dialogue. Make sure that your employees know that they can come to you to discuss any issues or questions they have. And always focus on communicating your own expectations as clearly as possible. Employees can only respect boundaries they know exist.This article first appeared on Career Contessa.

Great Finance Resume Examples and Writing Tips
Great Finance Resume Examples and Writing TipsGreat Finance Resume Examples and Writing TipsEvery good resume does the same job showing the hiring manager that you can solve their problems and help their employer succeed in its goals. In the financial industry, this means quantifying your accomplishments to prove that you can make and/or save your company money.

To see how to translate your achievements into a resume format, take the time to review resume examples and templates. Tips for Creating a Finance Resume When composed thoughtfully and with attention to detail, your resume becomes an effective marketing tool that presents you in the best possible light to potential employers. The skills and qualities you include in your resume should demonstrate that you are an appropriate can didate for a position and help you secure an interview. While each resume should vary based on your particular experience and the job description, there are a few things you should consider doing on any finance resume. Quantify Your AccomplishmentsFinancial employers want to see how you will add value to their company. Do this by showing, numerically, how you improved previous companies. Phrases like reduced closing process by 3-5 days or saved company 10% in overhead costs clearly demonstrate your accomplishments in the finance industry. Write a Resume Profile A resume profile or resume summary statement is a great way to concisely demonstrate why you are qualified for the job. In a few sentences, you can explain how you have added value to other companies. List Your CertificationsMany finance jobs require particular finance certifications. List these certifications in a separate section of your resume to demonstrate your expertise. List Your Skills There are a number of skills tha t are critical to a financial job. For example, one area that is particularly important in the financial industry is software experience. Consider making a specific list of software skills on your resume. Describe Each CompanyConsider providing details on each company you worked for. Note whether each company is public or private, its size, and net worth. It will help the company decide whether you have experience with similar organizations. How to Use Examples and Templates Designing a document such as a resume from scratch can be time-consuming and difficult. A template helps you with the layout of your document. Templates also show you what elements you need to include in your document. Along with helping with your layout, resume examples can help you see what kind of content you should include in your document. They can also give you ideas on the type of language you want to use. For example, a sample resume might show you the kind of action words you should include in your resume. You should use a template or example as a starting point for your documents. However, you should always be flexible. You can change any of the elements of the example to fit your own needs. For example, if an example resume lacks a skills section, but you want to include one, you should do so. In fact, you should never make your document the same as an example or template. That is because your documents should fit your individual work history and the requirements of the job for which you are applying.

New Work Environments for New Workforces
New Work Environments for New WorkforcesNew Work Environments for New WorkforcesBeing in the right atmosphere is key to productivity and creativity.In days where its becoming harder and harder to find a qualified employee, some workplaces learned that the best way to avoid having to acquire qualified applicants is to retain the ones they already have. With the average time spent at the same job falling to just under 4 years in the United States, were a long way from ur parents and their work the same job all your life, and then retire mindset.The truth is, whether its you resigning your position, or your job terminating you or downsizing, that kind of work until you retire attitude simply doesnt work in our risk-averse economy.The key to retaining employees? Make them happy. I work at an office that isnt like fruchtwein offices. We dont have cubicles. Our walls are painted bright colors and littered with murals and artwork. We take mid-afternoon breaks to play darts and sometimes our lunches push into two-hour territory (generally on Friday), and our boss couldnt be happier. Were doing a great job, and whether it looks like it or leid, were productive. Whether you run an SEO agency, a marketing firm or you do most of your business on a freelance fundament in a home office, theres a lot to learn about work environments, and selecting the proper work environment to suit your needs or the needs of your business.This office is less like a job, and more like an entrepreneurial breeding ground for creativity and increased productivity.Hows it done? Lets break down some of the finer points and look at why they work so well.Non-productive interactionDart games, rocking out on the piano or trommel set, long lunches, meetings with similar like-minded people who arent employed with us, and the occasional shooting of wannabe viral videos makes our office much different than your typical cubicle farm.In a survey conducted online in 2006 by San Francisco design firm, Gensler , they found that two-thirds of the more than 2,000 workers surveyed said they believe that they are more efficient when they work closely with their colleagues. However, 30 percent of those said that their workplace doesnt promote spontaneous interaction and collaboration.What the casual observer sees as goofing off and being unproductive is actually our group of creatives recharging, and enjoying the company of their colleagues all while collaborating in a much more natural way than forced brainstorming sessions or mandatory meetings.The end of the 40-hour work weekMaybe that heading is a bit of a misnomer because I dont know anyone in our office that doesnt put in at least 40 hours a week. The difference is, we dont generally do it on a 9-to-5 basis 5 days a week. I work on weekends, holidays, and sometimes after midnight. The difference is, I do it when I feel Im most productive. I have 24/7 office access, and I can go in when I choose, even if its at 2 a.m. on a Saturday. Somet imes creativity strikes and you just need a place to go to flesh it out.My office doesnt require a 9-to-5 schedule. Were a results-based organization, and not one of us is judged by how many hours we put in during a week. Were judged by the quality of our work and the amount of it we do rather than how long were able to sit at our desk any given week.Im a professional writer by trade, and anyone that has ever written anything can tell you that some days you just cant put two sentences together. Now, instead of sitting at a desk, I get up and play a game of darts, take a walk, go get a cup of coffee or sometimes I just go home. I find that a change of scenery is often all that is needed to remedy a case of writers block.With 3g and 4g Internet on nearly all of our phones, WiFi, and services like Skype or the hangout feature on Google+, we dont need to sit at a desk and stare at our co-workers all day anymore. Sometimes your best work comes from a coffee shop, and not your desk. Most of us dont have the freedom to give that a try.Creative environments produce creative individualsWhen you give your employees the proper environment to produce creative work, it comes as no surprise that theyll actually produce creative work.A cubicle farm and neutral-colored walls are boring on the eyes, and have been proven to decrease brain activity and therefore creativity. Bright colors, murals and artwork are everywhere in my office, and I couldnt be happier with how productive I feel when Im there. Some of my best writing takes place when I come in after-hours to a completely quiet office with no distractions. The bright colors and artwork create visual interest which leads to ideas and (in my opinion) good writing.Perks lead to higher output and happier employeesIts no secret that you work harder for people when you think they are treating you well. Its easy to fall into the trap of doing just enough to get by, but in a relaxed environment that rewards you for your efforts, you give it your all, every day.At my office we have a masseuse come in once a month. We get free lunches every Friday at some great restaurants in our area, and we even indulge in the occasional after work trankopfer with our group of friends. Notice I said friends, not co-workers. In this type of environment, you are allowed to turn off the pressure a bit which leads to workplace friendships, rather than merely a coworker-type relationship.All of our employees are well-paid, and we each receive vacation time and full benefits for our efforts. This type of employee-first thinking leads to happy employees who are willing to bust their butts, and go the extra mile when needed.Arguments against non-traditional work environmentsThe most common complaint about our type of environment would be from those that havent worked in this type of office before. Its easy to wonder how - with little oversight from superiors - anything actually gets done. The easy thing to forget is how lucky mos t of us feel to work at a job that fosters creativity, all while showing that were appreciated for our hard work. Were given goals and expectations, and we work our hardest to achieve them. Its easy to measure our results, even without a manager breathing down our neck and those who dont produce are shown the door, just like in a traditional work environment.Is the traditional office dead? As much as I wished it were, there are some that are just micro-managers by nature, and would refuse to give up enough control to make this work. That said, I do believe that with millenials entering the workplace over the next few years, this might be the most productive environment for them. Millenials dont think the way their parents did. Why should they be expected to work in the same way?Reposted with permission from Personal Branding Blog
