Ways to Save Money on a Tight Budget

Author: Lyn Bell

Job Vacancy - When your budget is stretched you need to take control of your spending. Here are some ways to save money on a tight budget. Remember that the important thing is not how much you earn but how much you save and how you spend. - Indonesia Job
Going to the supermarket can be irresistible for unplanned spending. It is one of the major places to use more money than you intend. Be conscious about this fact and make yourself some simple rules.
  • Start by allocating a set sum for groceries every month in your budget.
  • Shop for groceries only once a week and do not be tempted to pop in every day. You'll invariably end up with more than the carton of milk you dropped in for.
  • Plan your shopping by taking a list of the items you need. Make a note of the usual price of the items and add these up to indicate how much you will be spending.
  • Only shop when you have eaten and not when you are hungry. If you are hungry you will end up with more food in your trolley than you need.
  • Scour the specials and cut out coupons. Make you list using the weekly special publication.
  • Take cash to cover your bill rather than placing it on the credit card.
Develop a checklist to make sure your effort to cut costs on your bills is actually working.
Power Bill
  • Electricity bills can be lowered by simple things such as switching off appliances that are not in use.
  • Check other providers to see if you can get a better rate for the use of your power.
  • Switch off lights in rooms you are not using.
  • Use energy-saving light bulbs.
  • Insulating your home may be an expense at the start but will have an ongoing benefit of decreased electricity bills and providing a warm home.
Phone Bill
  • Using the internet for online chats and sending emails helps you to stay in touch without having huge bills to talk on the phone.
  • Use Skype to call friends who are also on the internet for free. You can also pay for calls to landlines at inexpensive rates.
  • Ask your telephone provider if they have special deals that will cut the cost of calls.
Water Bill
  • Even if you don't pay for water usage this applies. Attend to any dripping tap as this is a waste of water.
You may think of many more ideas but these are some of the ways you can save money on a tight budget. - Lowongan Kerja

Attitude Adjustment 101 Nine Ways to Transform You From Mediocre to Magnificent


by Susan Young




“Work on your careers and you’ll make a living. Work on yourself and you’ll make a fortune.” - Jim Rohn
 
Regardless of the number of college credits or degrees you have, the truth is that much of your success is determined by your attitude. Education is worthwhile but a good attitude is priceless. If you search for a college that has a concentration of study entitled “Attitude,” you will come up empty handed. Yet, the world would be a better place if we could all major in “Attitude.”
 
If attitude is not taught in school, then how come some people have great attitudes and others don’t? More important, how can you change from a mediocre attitude to a magnificent one?
 
First, to adjust your attitude, you must be brutally honest with yourself and take responsibility for your attitude. You are the only one who can change you. Be accountable for who you are and how you behave. Tell yourself that blame is unacceptable.
 
Second, recognize warning signs like negative thoughts, blame and pessimism. Your mind is like a computer; the beliefs you put in (input) create the actions you take out (output). For example, if you tell yourself that you are “just okay,” you will be “just okay.” What you think about, you will become.
 
Third, use positive affirmations. Tell yourself every day that you are an outstanding person capable of achieving your goals. When the woman at the coffee shop in the morning asks how I am, I flash a big smile and reply “I’m great” or I’m outstanding.” Replace negative and mediocre with excellent and amazing. Stand up taller each morning. Breathe deeply to allow air into your diaphragm. Smile more, even at people you don’t know. Live a new level of excellence every day. Reach higher.
 
Fourth, your subconscious mind operates on images and pictures. Before you go to sleep, envision your ideal day. What are you doing? What are you wearing? Who are you with? Are you in a meeting, confidently speaking before your boss and colleagues? Are you on the beach playing with your children and spouse? See and feel yourself in this moment as a huge success. Do you want a new house, job or relationship? Imagine it as if it already happened.
 
Fifth, write down your goals. The subconscious mind kicks into action when you put your goals in writing. List three short-term and three long-term goals. Then, give your dreams deadlines (a date of accomplishment) and outline the steps you will take every day to reach your goals and dreams.
Sixth, put your head down and focus. Successful people do not spend time with negative water cooler gossip and time wasters. Set your goals and get to work.
 
Seventh, think about a successful person you admire. What are his or her personality traits, characteristics and values? Chances are the person who came to mind is successful because he or she decided to be positive and upbeat, to expect great accomplishments and to focus on doing whatever it takes to achieve his or her goals. Surround yourself with cheerful successful people.
 
Eighth, avoid “naysayers” who shoot you down, speak negatively or have poor work and personal habits.
 
Ninth, practice these ways to adjust your attitude for at least 21 days. That’s how long it takes to form a new habit.
 
President John F. Kennedy said, “The human mind is our most fundamental resource.” Your mind is a fertile garden that will grow whatever you plant in it. What seeds are you planting in your mind? Are you planting seeds of opportunity and growth or weeds like cynicism and mediocrity? Life is better when you have a good attitude. So go ahead and give yourself the chance to move from mediocre to magnificent. We all have the tools. The key is to use the resources that we have to become totally amazing!

Indonesia Vacancy : 5 Interviewing Tips To Get That Job

By Marie Roker

Bookmark          
          and   Share


Anyone who is a jobseeker knows that looking for a new job or careers is a job in itself. Once you have completed the laborious task of writing your resume and submitting it to various companies, you now have to pass the screen test to get the job. Interviews are the gateway to landing your ideal job. These five tips will help you get own your way to making that job yours.
 
1. Be Confident
 
Your first impression is your only impression.
Nothing is worse than a limp handshake, slumped shoulders, poor eye contact or poor communication skills. A potential employer can tell immediately if you are the man or woman for this job by your body language. Although aggressiveness is a turn-off, being passive gives the indication that you are not sure of yourself or your qualifications. Keep eye contact when answering questions or when the interviewer is speaking directly to you. Smile occasionally to show your interest and enthusiasm. Keeping a steady gaze on the interviewer can be disturbing to an interviewer. Look away occasionally. Lean forward to show that you are interested in what the interviewer is saying. Speak in a concise and clear voice. If you have problems annunciating certain words, don’t try to use them on an interview. If this is difficult for you, practice with a mirror and pay attention to your facial expressions. Other interview killers: Slouching in a chair, Crossing your arms, Playing with your hair or jewelry, Leaning back in chair
 
2. Act As If
 
You are what you believe.
Act as if you had the job. What would you do if you had this position? How would you act? How would a person in this position act and speak? What are your responsibilities in this position? What is a typical day like for you in this job? Change your attitude towards yourself and your strengths. If you start thinking that you won’t get the job, you will do small unnoticeable things to sabotage your chances. Great free resource: www.confidenceworld.com.
 
3. Know The Company
 
Know the business.
I once sat on a couple of interviews where the interviewees did not do any research on the company. This sends a message that you are looking for any job, not this specific job. Once you’re interview is scheduled, get on the net and start finding out everything you can about the company. A good place to start is www.hoovers.com, which gives you industry information, top competitors, names of CEO, etc. If you’d like to know what current or former employees have to say about the company, try www.wetfeet.com. Beware of disgruntled postings. Call the company headquarters and ask for the marketing department to get specific information. Weave your research into the interview by stating. I read an article in the Wall Street Journal, which mentioned that your company is thinking about XYZ. This lets the interviewer know that you have taken the time to know more about the company. You can ask questions about something you read, but don’t challenge them or you’ll come across as a know-it-all.
 
4. Be Prepared
 
Know what to say.
Most interviewers ask the same standard questions about your strengths, weaknesses, former employers, work history. If you are being interviewed by several people, this might be a good cop, bad cop situation. Pay attention to who is playing bad cop, they are looking for signs of weakness and dishonesty. To be well prepared, before the interview, write out all your accomplishments, both personal and professional. List your strengths and weaknesses. Be honest, it’s easier to remember the truth than it is a lie. Extra Tip: Write out situations in which you have demonstrated: leadership skills, determination, stress management, creativity, and flexibility. Be prepared to answer the question: Why do you want this job? If you’re not sure, reevaluate your decision. If you arrive a few minutes early, review what you wrote in the waiting room before the interview.
   
5. Ask For The Job
 
You get what you ask for.
The most important step in the interviewing process is one most people miss. ASK FOR THE JOB! Most interviewers are waiting for that closure. If you have done everything exceptionally well during the interviewing process, but have not asked for the job, you’ve just wasted an interview. Asking for the job shows the potential employer that you are assertive, confident and right for the job. It might feel uncomfortable, but this is your only chance to ask for something you really want. Make sure your voice is firm and you make eye contact. Think of it as your closing argument, you’ve got to win over the jury. You should also ask the interviewer if he or she thinks you are right for the job. Even if they tell you something unpleasant, think of it as a lesson learned. However, do yourself a favor and ask for the job. You deserve it!

Careers : Top Ten Ways to Improve Your Communication Skills

by Dorene Lehavi




1) Listen without judgment. The key to good communication is listening well. Save your judging for later after you have heard and understood what was said.
 
2) Listen with the willingness to be swayed to the other person's opinion. No obligation to actually being swayed, but stay open to the option.
 
3) Listen without thinking about what you will say next. Take time before you respond.
 
4) Do not be invested in being right. Being right is not the point. If you must be right, you are not able to listen nor communicate because you have set up a barrier already. If you are always right that means the other person is always wrong. That cannot be true.
 
5) If your mind wanders, ask for repetition. We all are subject to distraction. Try to stay focused.
 
6) In all cases repeat back what you heard and ask if it is correct.
 
7) Listen to yourself. Find quiet moments and pay attention to what you are hearing from yourself. Does your body tighten up about certain issues. Body language is not something to read only in other people.
 
8) Say it honestly, but with consideration for the listener's feelings. Be polite, respectful and sincere.
 
9) Understand and acknowledge that most things are not black or white, but somewhere in a gray area. Get comfortable with gray.
 
10) Have integrity and build trust. Don't say what you don't mean. Don't promise what you won't or can't fulfill. Follow through with any committments you make.
 
Good listening skills take practice. Specific coaching may be necessary if you find you have communication issues with your boss, colleagues, subordinates, partners or personal relationships.

Careers -> 12 Ways to be a Confident Public Speaker

by Sandra Schrift





Speak from your heart. If you believe in what you say, than others need to hear it. All confident speakers fall in the P2 (passion plus persistence). Be sure your speech contains your most fundamental beliefs and comes from authenticity.

1. Prepare, prepare, prepare!

2. Practice in front of a full-length mirror, for small groups. Join Toastmasters. www.toastmasters.org

3. Be positive. “I am a good speaker/trainer.”

4. Expect to be nervous. [deep breathe, exercise by walking, stretch, visualize your success, meditate] Make anxiety your ally. Increase your energy; heighten your awareness.

5. Focus on your audience. [It is NOT about you. You are there to help your audience]

6. Simplify. Use your time wisely and keep your presentation clear and simple so that your audience can understand what you are saying.

7. Connect with your audience. Look people in the eye, one at a time, as you speak to them. The audience wants you to succeed.

8. Act confident. Smile. Hold your chin up. Stick your chest out. When you do this, you will feel confident. Remember, YOU are the authority on the subject and they want to hear what you have to say.

9. Use humor wherever possible.

10. Offer the right message mix (inform, persuade, entertain, interact)

11. Establish credibility by the use of facts, statistics, and stories.

12. Learn from your mistakes. Making mistakes is part of your learning process. Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert, said, “Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.”

Accelerate Your Learning Curve for More Success and Less Stress

by Susan Dunn





Downsizing and technological advances put demands on us to learn more and learn it faster. As support staff and auxiliary positions disappear, job functions are consolidated, teamwork becomes the norm, and computer and other technologies keep proliferating, we are faced with a stressful amount of new things to learn in a diminishing amount of time.
 
Yet the faster you can learn new things, the more valuable you will be to your employer, and the more likely you’ll be to advance in your Careers. It isn’t an option these days.
 
WHAT LEARNING CURVES HAVE IN COMMON
What can you do to accelerate your learning curve and increase your value to your employer? The interesting thing is that there are things all learning curves have in common, whether you’re learning how to facilitate team work, learning a new software program, learning a new language, or learning how to negotiate. The better you understand the mechanics of THE learning curve, the better you’ll be able to deal with the individual ones that come along, and this is part of Emotional Intelligence.
 
GETTING RID OF THE FEAR
If you think back on things you’ve learned in the past, you’ll probably realize that one of the things that slowed you down was fear. I can certainly think of examples in my own case.
 
An example of how fear can slow you down is evident if you’ve watched a young child learn how to ski. A child doesn’t fear failure nor success, nor do they fear falling down. New things are an every day occurrence for a child, and this is just the next one. In learning to ski, they fall repeatedly and bounce back like a rubber ball. They consider it all fun. Thus there is nothing slowing down the learning except their ability to master the motor skills. What a relief!
Many of the Emotional Intelligence competencies facilitate learning. One of them is flexibility. The skiing example shows a sort of physical flexibility, but this is applicable to mental tasks as well. We don’t all learn best the same way. You may be sent to a seminar or training that doesn’t fit your learning style. If you’re flexible, and have learned how to learn (the learning curve), you’ll be able to shape things to your own benefit.
 
Take learning a new software program, for instance, something many of us are faced with almost monthly. One person may learn better by reading the manual, while another may do better by being shown. Yet another may be used to the “throw them to the wolves method,” or by hearing a tape or looking at an interactive video on the computer screen.
 
This has to do with your innate learning style which can be discovered through an assessment such as the StrengthsFinder® profile, by working with a coach, or by analyzing your own history. Generally when left to your own devices, you’ll do what comes naturally to you, which will always be the quickest and easiest way for you to learn.
 
LEARNING HISTORIES
A client I’ll call Alicia learned how to type when she was 6 years old. Her mother let her ‘play’ on the family typewriter. By the time she got to high school and took a typing class which attempted to teach her “touch typing,” it was too late to unlearn the old ways, yet she keyboards at over 100. Would anyone complain about the method?
 
Then she took a jobs Indonesia where her boss told her he wanted a newsletter in two weeks, and gave her – wouldn’t you know? – a Mac. Being used to tinkering, she started right in, asking an office mate some pertinent questions, and figuring it out fairly rapidly although she had never touched a computer before. Someone else might have refused that jobs indonesia or demanded lessons.
 
The next job Alicia had she was required to use a PC, and she tackled that on her own as well.
 
Nick, however, learns best from formal instruction, and then having a manual at his side. It confuses him if someone tries to instruct him sitting by his side or talking to him. He would rather work on his own, in peace and quiet.
 
Emotional Intelligence starts with self-awareness – knowing your emotions as well as your cognitive abilities, and particularly how they interface. Nick and Alicia were both able to learn computer skills, but they were comfortable in different settings, and it’s emotional “comfort,” that gets rid of the fear and accelerates the learning curve. Learning has a huge emotional component to it that is just now being honored in our schools and in the work place.
 
MOVE RAPIDLY FOR BEST RESULTS
A crucial point is the longer you stay in the confused stage, the more stress you’ll experience. This will reinforce itself, making it harder for you to learn in the future. In essence you’ll be slowing down your learning curve each time.
The faster you learn each thing, the less agony, and the better and faster you’ll learn in the future. It’s a win-win. Your employer wants you to learn fast, and it’s in your best interest to learn fast.
 
Another great benefit is then learning is fun – like the 6 year old learning to ski. This is turn will make you more resilient (the stress-buster for the 00s) because studies have shown that lifetime learning contributes to resilience.
The ability to change rapidly, be flexible and learn quickly are highly valued by today’s employers and reduce your personal stress levels.
These are all Emotional Intelligence competencies you can learn. How? Start with an overview of the field and an assessment of your own Emotional Intelligence (EQ or EI). You can take an interactive Emotional Intelligence course on the Internet, and then work with a certified Emotional Intelligence coach who can provide individual instruction to improve your competencies.
Developing your Emotional Intelligence has many benefits. It can accelerate the learning curve because it teaches you correct patterns, makes previous knowledge more accessible, allows for better cognitive functioning, and manages the emotions so they help the process, not hinder it. It can also increase your ability to get the help – and the kind of help – you need from others.
Even if faced with learning something completely new, you’ll learn to recognize the steps and feelings that go along with each stage which will eliminate a lot of stress.
You’ve taken care of your academic education, but what about your Emotional Intelligence? Take a second look. Many people are finding it to be the missing piece in their Careers plan.

Human Resource Management: Types of Training and Benefits in the Work Environment

By Hakan Samad

Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy 


Basic training in HR management helps those who are beginning in their career to understand the responsibilities they will assume in their role. Those who work in HR must develop their knowledge in every aspect of human resource management, including compensation and benefits, orientation, training, development, employee relations and performance management.
Human resource management positions often require that HR professionals further develop their skills in specific areas such as labor relations and behavioral interviewing, as well as specialized training in employment law and diversity. Today, the human resource manager is not the person responsible simply for hiring workers and keeping their personnel file up-to-date as they were two decades ago; this is why it is essential that individuals gain the skills and knowledge necessary today for effective human resource management.
In today's workplace environment, it is not uncommon for a company to have an entire HR management team responsible for hiring the right individuals for specific jobs. This team may also designate the responsibilities of an employee and detail the tasks assigned to that employee. Without an effective human resource management team, a company is likely to have a hard time building an exceptional group of workers who are dedicated to the betterment of the company.
Effective human resource management may consist of several individuals responsible for different roles within the team such as manager, director and generalist. The primary responsibilities of human resource management in general lies in meeting the interests and needs of the company, while meeting the needs of the workers simultaneously. Organizations are constantly changing today; HR management must constantly evolve as well in order to adapt to changes and remain resilient, keeping the focus on the end result for the company as a whole.
In short, today's human resource management team is often considered a strategic partner; those who work in the HR manager capacity often contribute to developing business plans across the organization as well as accomplishing objectives. It's easy to see that the role of HR management runs the gamut from hiring and training individual employees to protecting the reputation of the company; those in HR management often find themselves managing or navigating disputes or disagreements between managers and employees in order to come to a solution.
Human resource management today encompasses all aspects of an organization's people, their activities and their needs, which often includes everything from recruiting and hiring to performance management, employee relations, building strong teams and leadership.

The Passive Job Seeker is Golden

By Phil Adamo

Job Vacancy Indonesia, Employee, Vacancy


Especially in today's economic environment, employers are becoming increasingly "choosy" with regard whom they hire... and rightfully so. With the unemployment rate reaching highs that we have not seen in decades, more and more job seekers have resorted to "fabricated enthusiasm" in hopes of impressing recruiters. These candidates are willing to settle for a job they are less than passionate about, while waiting for a career opportunity for which they are truly qualified to come around. This makes for a not-so-happy employee, and one with the potential to infect his or her coworkers. This becomes costly for the employer who has needlessly wasted time, energy, and money on an employee who is unlikely to remain long enough to justify the investment.
As a recruitment advertising executive with more than 25 years experience, let me share an important lesson that I learned though working with some of the most successful staffing professionals in the industry. It is simply this: The best candidates for any position are ones who are already employed in a similar or parallel position, and who are not unhappy with their situation. Just because they are not actively seeking a new job, however, does not mean they are not open to opportunity when it knocks. The question is, how do you reach the passive job seeker.
While career websites are a vital tool for recruiters, I have to believe that someone who takes the time to go on such a website is actively looking for a job. Does that make such people bad candidates? Of course not, but it does suggest that career websites are unlikely to provide more than a very limited number of the passive seekers described above.
Daily Newspapers, on the other hand, can be very successful tools for reaching the passive seeker - especially those who commute. And guess what? These people are commuting because they are going to work... because they are employed! Advertisements in national and regional dailies have performed very well at bringing these passive job seekers to our clients.
Using metropolitan New York City as an example, many of our clients advertise in such prominent dallies as the NY Times, Post, Daily News, and Newsday on a steady basis, especially those looking for top-notch salespeople and healthcare workers. Another excellent vehicle for reaching the passive seeker is the daily newspaper, amNewYork. Distributed at no cost at commuter venues throughout New York City and its suburbs, amNewYork enjoys a huge commuter circulation.
What about younger candidates who appear to be losing interest in the print media? Some magazines already have interactive editions compatible with such platforms as smartphones and the new iPad. These turn print advertisements into live videos that are certain to attract the younger demographics. And as augmented reality applications help transform the print media into entry portals for web-based interactivity, they are bound to recapture a substantial share of the younger audience. They will undoubtedly find ways to dazzle those of us in the older demos, retaining our interest as well.
So, if your entire recruitment strategy is based on career websites alone, you may be missing out on a pool of ideal candidates. Only by integrating your online efforts with the print, radio, and television are you likely to find the golden goose, and not just one of an army of unemployed people eager to double park for a while on your dollar!

Learning more about these programs is a good way to determine if they are right for you or not.

Not only do you not have to commute, but you are also able to set your own study hours. All the materials are given to you, along with an online support network that allows you to ask questions and engage in discussions with your peers and instructor.
This will all help lead up to you taking a test at the end of the program of study. With the best business certification programs, you can be sure that you will end up with a powerful credential that will help you to stand out in a job market that is consistently shifting. It might seem difficult to stand out, but with the added confidence that you receive from this type of training program, you'll be able to be secure that you have the skills that will set you ahead of the rest of the pack, and lead to a satisfying career in business.

They can assist in raising capital through various loans, investors, or private means. Marketing is also an area that can be tweaked by a business coach. Successful marketing often means targeting the advertising. Integrating modern technology can be facilitated by a coach as well.
Communication skills and interpersonal skills for dealing with clients are a part of the curriculum during business coach certificate courses. The right communication style can motivate and encourage business leaders while you are critiquing their leadership methods. Speaking of clients, business coaching is nothing without them. The best coaching courses teach you how to find, hook, and retain clients to build a roster of people who keep returning to you for advice. Ambitious, business-loving, clear communicators make excellent coaches in business.

They can effectively use their knowledge of models and processes to assess and improve the current business model. The certification credential can be added to a business card, resume, website, and more. Choosing a certification course includes selecting curriculum and instructor that you respect.

The best coaches have earned their coaching certification credentials and are fully qualified to do these jobs. However, there are some coaches out there who have little to no experience or training in the field.
Business leaders seeking the services of a business coach should check to see if they have their coaching certification. This is gained through a strenuous training class that focuses on the practical application of business coaching principles followed by a rigorous qualifying exam to earn the certification. These courses provide students with study guides and memorization tools to help them learn the tools, processes, and formulas that have worked in the field of business as well items specific to coaching in business. These include learning how to acquire clients and lead business leaders. The clients of coaches in business are not used to being in the role of a follower, so there are special techniques and interpersonal skills that can increase the success of the business coach and the business leader with whom they are working.
Coaching certification courses teach students how to be effective and efficient in their own businesses to make profits soar. It would not speak well of the doctor is he was continually sick, right? Obviously the business coach must use their own expertise in their own business as well. The courses also train students in the best practices of business coaching. Students also learn how to structure a relationship with the client to be most effective at improving the productivity of their business.

Much like a sports coach, it does help if the business coach has been in business at least a little. Sometimes a role like this opens up in a corporation and people need training so they take the course to qualify.
