Well i checked my status on my application and my application got denied because of my Biographical Assessment. Answered the questions as honest as i can but i guess they didn't like it.
feeling antsy, I need this.
Never quit your job until you have something else. You were part time, but at least you had a steady flow of income. You thought about going back to school to get your masters in Econ? Did you do any field related internships while in school?I've been applying bros.. quit my last job to look for better opportunities.. I was a Part time Bank Teller.. but now I have a BA in Economics so I'm looking to establish myself now.. its been 3 months now
If its optional, leave it blank. What you list could be way more than they're willing to offer or worse, less than the industry standard. Only discuss salary when they bring it up.
No. It shouldn't because it's part of the negotiation process.
pm'd famAfter 4 interviews for 4 different positions at the same company (feels good to be wanted), I finally got an offer from a bank's commercial banking group. Put in my two weeks notice yesterday
Underpaid, under employed and a horrible commute for far too long.
For my NTer's looking for new opportunities, something that resonated with me in my search was to really know what YOU do and how it plays into the "big picture" and/or adds to the bottom line. It sounds simple enough but not enough people give tangible reasons for why a company should hire YOU. Too often job seekers just list their tasks and responsibilities but don't back it up with numbers or real life examples of the value they add.
For example, with my job it took me awhile to really articulate what I do using the industry jargon and how to present the unique experience I acquired at my smaller company.
[COLOR=#red]North Dakota wants you: New campaign seeks to fill 20,000 jobs
[/COLOR]
Looking for a job? North Dakota wants you.
In a new recruiting campaign to be rolled out in May, the North Dakota Economic Development Foundation is aiming to fill more than 20,000 jobs -- ranging from truck drivers and oilfield workers to receptionists and food servers.
North Dakota's huge oil boom has spurred thousands of job seekers to flock to the state for years now. In some cities, the population has quadrupled.
Yet, the growth continues and companies are still so desperate for workers that the state is teaming up with oil giant Hess Corp. to launch an $800,000 campaign to attract new talent.

"It is being developed to target people in states with chronic unemployment, and people in industries that are high-demand in North Dakota, including: engineering, healthcare, energy, skilled trades, transportation and information technology," the foundation said in a statement.
The push will include a website, marketing efforts and recruiting events.
The state is also trying to convince potential employees that North Dakota is not only a good place to get a job, but a great place to live, dubbing it the "Find the Good Life in North Dakota" campaign.
But this could be a harder sell.
Over the past few years, the flood of workers moving to the state -- specifically to the Northwest corner where oil activity is greatest -- has caused a severe housing shortage.
In Williston, a town at the center of the boom, home prices have more than tripled and rent there is currently the highest in the nation, according to a new report from Apartment Guide, a website for finding apartment rentals.
Even though many employees are now raking in six-figure salaries, they are essentially homeless, living in their cars in parking lots, in other peoples' basements, in RVs or even in churches.
Along with a housing crunch, crime has skyrocketed, traffic is grueling, and local restaurants and retailers struggle to keep up with the surge in demand -- resulting in higher prices and longer waits.
And, of course, there's always the below-freezing temperatures, with wind chills plunging under negative 50 during the winters.
