How to Explain Why…

During a job interview, it's common for the interviewer to ask why you're looking for a new job. The company's goal is to hire somebody who is qualified and capable of doing the work at a high level.

5 Reasons Why You're…

It's called "paralysis by analysis." I'm sure you've heard of it or even suffered from it. I certainly have.

A ... Source: Recruiter

USCIS Insists Memo Targets…

9/13/18 – During the public stakeholder teleconference, the USCIS emphasized that the is not intended to penalize filers for “innocent” mistakes. According to USCIS, the policy is meant to allow adjudicators to exercise discretion to deny cases that are frivolous and/or “substantially incomplete.” USCIS is seeking to discourage parties from filing cases with a bare minimum of documentation, with the intention of providing the substantive documents later after an RFE is issued. USCIS plans to publish checklists on the USCIS website that will detail the initial evidence required for each case type (e.g., H1B, L-1). The USCIS is stating that this memo should not impact standard filings, even if the applicant or petitioner inadvertently fails to provide a relevant document or two. The memo is targeting those who purposefully file cases without the required documents, which drains USCIS resources. Source: h1b now

To Find Hidden Jobs,…

When I explain to my clients that networking correctly is the most effective way to find a great job, about 99 percent of them say they hate networking. Even super skilled, relationship-building-is-my-middle-name salespeople! Good networking involves relationship-developing conversations, not ask-a-stranger-for-a-job transactions. Think of it this way: In an interview, the hiring manager calls you in, runs the meeting, and asks you the questions. Conversely, in a networking meeting or informational ...
