What Are Green Jobs and How Do I Get One? by Janay Scott

The recent buzz around town is about green jobs and finding green jobs. But what exactly is a green job? A green job is a job that provides a product or service that in turn allows consumers to consume less or produce more because of the utilization of the product or service provided. There are also green jobs that strive to be socially responsible and improve the environment. The Green Job Act of 2007 is a pilot program that is set to identify needed skills, develop training programs, and train workers for jobs in many different fields. Green jobs are said to build a strong middle class and provide people with new skills to help minimize damage to our environment. Green jobs are also said to reduce unemployment and poverty. Here is a list of 4 interesting green employers and why you should work for them.

1) Greenpeace: Greenpeace is an organization founded in 1971 that peacefully exposes global environmental problems and thinks of creative ways to promote solutions to sustain our environment. They work in protecting the oceans and forests and fight to limit global warming and the spread of harmful toxins. In 2008 Greenpeace teamed up with Ben & Jerry's to bring climate-friendly freezers to the US, this being one of their many accomplishments over the past 30 plus years. Greenpeace has offices worldwide. There are two offices located in the United States, one in Washington D.C. and the other in San Francisco, CA. Check out their website to learn more about this green company.

2) EcoVentures International: This non-profit organization supports the development of sustainable communities and livelihoods. Through this organization they work with community members to become socially and environmentally committed practitioners and entrepreneurs of sustainable development. They are based in Washington D.C. and have many volunteer and internship opportunities for those that are committed to seeing a more sustainable environment. Visit their website to learn more about these opportunities.

3) Green Roundtable: This independent non-profit's mission is to mainstream green building and sustainable design. They promote and support healthy and environmentally sound building projects through outreach, education, policy advocacy and technical assistance. Since their launch in 1998 they have been working with building owners, engineers, community organizers along with other influential people to meet the needs of the community. You can learn more about this Boston, MA based non-profit at their website.

4) Global Green USA: This non-profit was founded in 1994 and has been committed to addressing the global climate change and they have been primarily focused on creating green buildings and cities. Not only do they focus on addressing the problems of global climate change but they also offer green tips that make living an eco-friendly lifestyle easier. Check out what they have to offer eco-friendly minded people online.

The Perfect Career Quiz - How to Find the Perfect Job Match by Cherry Douglas

Are you wondering if there is a perfect job out there for you? Not sure how to find the career that will really be spot on for you? Try this simple 'perfect career quiz' to assess what would tick all the boxes for you.

The secret of the perfect career lies that in fact you already know what it is! It is not a matter of scanning the horizons - or the internet - and hoping you will spot something that looks right. There are lots of jobs out there you could consider, but unless you start with you, how can you assess them?

You need to start by looking within yourself. You already know what you like and dislike, what would please or frustrate you on the job, what would inspire and enthuse you. All you need to do is to sit down and tease out the detail and then you will have a template that you can use to measure new career ideas you are considering.

So try this 'perfect career quiz' by asking yourself the following questions:

Where would you be based?

At home? Office-based? Something non-conventional like a theatre? Outdoors? In the city or in the country? Same place each day or travelling round?

Who would you be working with?

What kind of people would your colleagues be? And what kind of clients (if any)? Would you be working mainly on your own or as part of a team?

What kind of hours would you be working?

Standard 9-5? Flexible with early starts and late finishes? Shift hours? Weekends with time off in the week? Freedom to work when you feel energised?

What kind of work would you be doing?

Analytical, brain work? Something creative? Practical hands-on stuff? Physically active? Dealing with lots of people? Teaching/training? Making systems work or events happen? Lots of variety in your day or a clear routine?

Who would you be working for?

Small or large organisation? Big city corporation? Charity/voluntary sector? Public sector? Health or education? Or would you prefer to be your own boss?

Rewards and promotion prospects?

How much do you need to earn and how much do you want to earn? What other rewards and incentives would be meaningful to you? What about promotion prospects - how important are they for you?

Don't rush through these questions with superficial answers. They are really getting to the heart of what is important for you in your work. If you find yourself in a job or career where there is a stark contrast between what you are doing and what you have answered to the questions above, you will probably find the work wearing and frustrating.

So take the time to build up a picture of your ideal job. Don't worry if you think it is a fantasy exercise. How can you find the perfect job if you have not defined what 'perfect' is for you? Once you have answered the quiz questions you will have a way of measuring the career change options you are considering. You may not get the perfect match first time, but at least answering the perfect career quiz will let you know that you are moving towards your goal.

Invest in Yourself - Protect Your Ability to Earn Income by James Lahey

In today's economy job changes are certain. Sometimes they can be forced upon people when companies go out of business, companies lay off employees due to cost saving measures or they can just simply downsize due to their competition or lost revenue.

Are you prepared to invest in yourself and protect your ability to earn income? You should take the following quiz to see if you are prepared to face the next round of employment cuts:

Have you ever conducted a honest and recent assessment of your strengths and weaknesses at work?

Have you recently reviewed your job description to make sure that you are not exceeding in your job responsibilities?

Do you currently hear about jobs that are available at other companies but are not advertised?

Has a co-worker left your company recently to take a new job? Have they recommended you for any open positions in their new company?

Have you looked into finding easy ways to gain further education or training in your chosen career?

Did you answer yes to all of the questions? That is excellent, you are truly investing in yourself and preparing yourself for the future. If you did not answer yes to all of the questions, you might not be as secure or as prepared in your current job as you think. You financial and career goals are way too important to leave in the hands of your employer. Do not let yourself be unprepared or surprised. Instead you need to concentrate on your career and your future.

Your 5 Step Guide to Career Change by Waller Jamison

When you are planning a career change there are seemingly endless tasks you need to do. Here is a 5 step guide to career change which will help you manage these tasks more effectively and achieve your goals more quickly.

Step #1 Discover What You Really Want

Some of you will know this already, having cherished a dream for years or perhaps recently discovered a new interest.

But for others, this is perhaps the most important step and can be the most difficult. If you have been in a career you don't enjoy for a long time, it can be difficult to imagine that work can actually be enjoyable.

If you know that you want to change career, but have no idea what you'd like to do, it's time for a little soul searching. You may have some buried dreams which you haven't thought about for a long time and which you never imagined could lead to a career. Dig them out of the shadows and have a closer look.

Or you may have developed new skills in your present job or your life outside work. It is possible that you once used certain skills which you did enjoy, but your job has now changed and this is no longer possible.

Come up with a list of any career which interests you. You can discuss this with friends and family who might be able to give you some clues about your skills or about interests which could relate to a career.

Step #2 Do Your Background Research

This step will help you to find out what the careers on your list involve, how you can gain the necessary qualifications and skills and information about salary, progression and training. It is easy to find detailed information about careers online, simply search for job descriptions or career profiles. One good tip is to try to talk to several people who are involved in the career, preferably at different levels. This will help give you an insider's view and enable you to narrow the choice.

Step #3 Update Your Skills

Once you have chosen the right career for you, you will need to make sure you have the qualifications you need. The amount of work required to complete this step will vary enormously, depending on your existing experience and the new career you plan to take up. Refine the research you did in step 2, by focusing on the exact training, experience and skill needed for this career. Look at the different ways in which you can train - on the job, by taking part-time or full-time courses or by completing an online qualification.

Step #4 Plot Your Course

Next you need to work out how you will get from where you are now to where you want to be. Will you need to stay in your present job while you complete a college course, or would you be able to get an entry level job in your new career? Or perhaps you need a job elsewhere, as a stepping stone, which can give you more relevant experience than you can get with your current employer.

Step #5 Find A Job

Once you are ready to make the move, it's time to find your first job in your new career. Using your research again, you should have a good idea how to go about this. You will also need to build a network of contracts to help you and you'll need to know how to create a good resume and covering letter.

Simple Steps That Can Improve Your Employability - The Importance of Work Experience by Samantha Pearce

Prospective employers are going to be looking very closely at your CV to see why they should employ you and not someone else. Anything you can include in your CV that can give you an edge is essential. Work Experience is one such factor.

Work Experience is an integral part of some courses but not all; therefore any opportunity for you to find a placement if it is not part of your course should be grasped. If it is related to your future career, that is all the better. For example, if you are considering a career in acting or the theatre, get involved with the University theatre. Even unpaid opportunities are valuable - they show that you are the sort of person who is genuinely interested in the field.

What does Work Experience entail? It means you will be taking up a position in your intended profession or line of work. It will be for a limited period of time.

The first thing work experience does is gives you an insight into the kind of work you are likely to be doing. You may be given a specific function or task to perform whilst you are there. It will give you a clear indication of whether you are suited. In some cases you may be given a range of tasks to do whilst you are there and this will give you an even greater awareness of your suitability.

One of the most valuable benefits of Work Experience is that in placing you in a real life situation, it gives you the opportunity to work with people for whom the job is their full time occupation. It is their livelihood. Working with other people requires you to develop skills and techniques to achieve a successful working relationship. It may be that the job you are doing will bring you into contact with clients and ordinary members of the public, where other skills are required.

A successful period of Work Experience will not only look good on your CV but it can also be a stepping stone for future employment.

Give yourself the edge in the jobs market with a professionally written CV from Words Worth Reading Ltd. Then have your application form proofread to improve your chances of getting an interview.

Three Easy Tips to Get Ready For a Career Fair Near You by Patricia Erickson

Be sure to check out any career fairs that are in your area and open to the public. And, make sure you're prepared in advance. Think you're ready?

Not so fast. It's not just about dressing for success and having a great resume. Being prepared for the next career fair involves some research. You'll want to give yourself some time to check out industries and employers of interest (who will be in attendance at the event) so you can do some background work prior to attending.

You don't want to waste your time at booths of employers with jobs you're not interested in or with companies experiencing financial difficulties, planning major outsourcing initiatives, or even worse intentions of selling off their local sector. Your research will ensure you know which companies to seek out at your next career fair.

Here are three easy tips to get you ready for your next career fair:

Tip #1

Check up on the guest list and decide which industries you are qualified to work in and decide which employers fit the bill. Develop a list of employers you want to meet with and get started on some research on your targets. You'll want to find out what has been happening recently within the industry. What challenges has the industry faced of late? Also, get some ideas about current and emerging trends.

Tip #2

You've got your list of employers and know what industries they're in - now what? Well, you can find some of the info mentioned above at America's Career InfoNet, (http://www.acinet.org). Select the Industry Information tab and you'll have access to an industry profile, trends, projections, growth rates, skills in demand, and more.

Tip #3

You will want to research companies individually and to do that, you can check out their web sites to start. You'll get basic info on company history, new initiatives, and maybe some financials. For a deeper look at the company, use the internet and search for news articles on the company. A search of http://www.hoovers.com will give you even more insights into companies and particular industries.

By using these tips, you'll ensure you're reaching out to the right employers at the career fair. You'll have a good understanding of specific industries and employers, and hopefully you'll avoid any underperforming companies.

As an added bonus you'll be able to speak intelligently about the industry, emerging trends, and any new initiatives. You'll have a lot to talk about with prospective employers and make a great impression!

How Can Job Seekers Be Able to Find a Job? by Son Duongy

Finding a job does not have to be an impossible task. Right now, it may seem like something you will never be able to obtain. A negative attitude will never get you anywhere. People who are looking for a job need to have the right type of attitude before even attempting the job-hunting process. If you must, go out and buy yourself a nice outfit or suit to wear when going to fill out applications. Jot down all of your skills and what it is that makes you so much better than others in your particular career field of interest.

Once you have psyched yourself up for the job hunt, you need to figure out where it is you want to go. Grab a newspaper and begin sifting through the classifieds to see what job description's match your interest. Make sure you pair yourself with a job you know that you would be interested in. You should also be careful not to limit yourself to only one profession. If you run across something online or in a local classified ad that strikes your interest, but doesn't quite seem to match up with your qualifications, do not be intimidated to take a risk. You never know what type of fascinating opportunities await you. If you are a go-getter, then you have a high chance of getting something good and worth while.

Having confidence in your abilities to be a good employee to whatever company you apply to is most important. Take your job hunting seriously. Do not mess around applying to places at which you know you would not enjoy working at. People who enjoy what they do are the one's who stick with a job and become a success. You will greatly increase your chances of finding a job if it is something you do at least once or twice a week. Jobs usually do not come to people, it takes determination and ambition.

The job market is very competitive and people are taking whatever they can get these days. It is best to get out there and be aggressive about obtaining the position you rightfully deserve. It is perfectly okay to be extra direct about what you can do for a company, so do not be shy. You should also not be afraid to contact the company you applied to after a couple of weeks of applying. Employers love it when people actually want the job they are applying for.

A strong resume highlighting your skills, strengths, and experience is the master tool in finding a good job. If you have to, you may need to create a resume to target a specific employer. You should also create a catchy cover letter to go along with your resume. Try not to make your cover letter sound too wordy, just state your point, but also be professional and sincere. Just because things are slow does not necessarily mean that employers aren't looking for good employees. They are waiting on you to come to them, you just have to take action. And remember, attitude is everything.

Five Things Not to Do in a Job Interview by Chris Archer

It doesn't matter what industry you are in, or what job you do, when you're trying to land your next job, you have to have a competitive mindset to win the job offer. You've probably heard or read about the different things you are supposed to do when meeting with a prospective employer. Let's turn our focus from what you should do, to what you should never do during a telephone, online meeting, or face to face interview.


Do not be late for your appointment. This shows the employer that you are not reliable from the get-go. Instead, be sure to arrive at least fifteen minutes early, and check in with the front desk or receptionist to let them know of your presense. In the event the time passes, and you have not been called in for your meeting, go back to the individual you checked in with, to ensure they actually informed the interviewer you are there.
Do not leave extra copies of your resume in the car. I suggest having a minimum of three copies of your resume prepared on high quality paper available at every interview. In the event the hiring manager calls in a colleague for you to meet as part of the interview process, or has an additional manager sit in on the interview, you are prepared to shake hands and bring them "into the loop." This makes you, as the candidate, look prepared.
Do not be afraid to ask thoughtful, intelligent, and deliberate questions during an interview. In fact, it is recommended that you work with your career coach or recruiter to create a list of at least ten questions that show you have researched the opportunity with this company, and further illustrate your competency and ability to perform the position in which you are applying. Keep in mind, you never want to ask questions that are easily answered on the company's website, or is general public knowledge.
Do not avoid eye contact throughout the interview. Consider your meeting with the hiring manager to be a performance. The truth of the matter is you are attempting to out-perform other applicants and prospective hires for the same position. If you put yourself in the shoes of the employer, you quickly realize how important behavior and body language is to the interview outcome. By maintaining eye contact with the people you are speaking with, you show that you are confident, and capable of performing the job in which they are hiring for.
NEVER discuss money or benefits during your meeting. If you want to ensure you do not get an opportunity with the company you are applying with, try to bring up compensation. The hiring manager is meeting with you to determine whether or not you are a good fit for the position, and their organization. To discuss money shows your ignorance of the hiring process, and shows a lack of professionalism. The purpose of the interview is for you to articulate to the company what you can do for them. Compensation should not ever enter the conversation until an offer has been made. This is where the salary negotiation process begins.

It is critical to know what not to say during a job interview. While preparation is always key to a good interview, each candidate should realize that they are competing for the same position against formidable opponents. To ensure your best performance during the interview, be sure to think about what the employer is actually looking for, and show them how you can best fit that requirement

What to Wear to an Interview For Women by Wesley E Anderson

I'm probably sure that women have a harder time trying to find a nice decent wardrobe for a job interview than a male does. The reason is because there are so many variables that play into the interview. For starters ladies are always self conscious of the fact that the interviewer may not hire her because of what she has on or the way she looks. This makes it tough for you ladies because you are trying to balance your cuteness with professionalism. As a result you struggle with your wardrobe because you are in a dilemma that may or may not get you a job. However, you won't have anything to worry about after this because I am going to help you maximize on your interview wardrobe.

The first thing that you need to pay attention to is the color. Make sure that you are wearing neutral colors or earth tone colors, if you are not into wearing the simple black and white. Never wear any bright colors, summer dresses, or show too much of your special features if you know what I mean. You will need to watch the type of blouses that you wear. Make sure that you are not showing too much cleavage. You also don't want to show too much leg. Make sure that your skirts and dresses are just above your knees and you are looking cute enough to pass the test.

You don't have to look like you are going to the club. However, you don't want to look like you are going to a funeral either
