In a quest to save money, time and travel costs some firms and employment service agencies are now adopting “Telephone Job Screening Interviews” as a more and more standard and accepted job employment screening technique. If you expect to be interviewed by phone, prepare by getting a member of your “network” to “role-play” the interviewer. Practice delivering your answers and answering typical run of the mill standard interviewing questions. After all there are very little variations in interview questions and interviewing style in these workups. It is if all these interview “technicians” all read the same book and attended the same school.

Listen…listen…your soul is speaking. Some refer to it as your heartbeat. To others, it’s an unshakable knowing that comes from deep within. If you want something that sounds more intellectual –it’s the reverberation of unrequited passion pulsating through every nerve and synapse of your being that challenges your current state and motivates you toward something bigger. Now that’s a mouthful.

It amazes me that even in a country that heralds Christianity as its predominant belief, a significant number of men and women admit that they are discontent with their jobs and dissatisfied with their lives.
