Your Career Advantage: Ask Aimee!

http://yourcareeradvantage.blogspot.com/2009/05/ask-aimee.html

Sunday, May 3, 2009. An irresponsible, job-hopping friend asked me to be a reference for her. How do I say "no" and still keep the friendship? Especially in these competitive, unstable times, you should never jeopardize your professional integrity and reputation for someone unworthy of your praise. Offer to privately support her, help her find job openings, and practice her interviewing skills. You can still play an active role in her job search without being a reference. Use your job search time wisely!

Your Career Advantage: Ask Aimee!

http://yourcareeradvantage.blogspot.com/2009/03/ask-aimee_7245.html

Saturday, March 28, 2009. What do I wear to an interview if the company is "business casual"? My advice is to always "err on the side of formality". It doesn't matter if the interviewer is wearing cut-offs, you still need to present your best, professional self. You also treat the interview more seriously when you dress seriously. Make a statement, and dress your best! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.".
