Benefits of a Security Resume

Benefits of a Security ResumeThe security resume is a feature of a Security guard or fireman resume that is used to catch the attention of an employer. There are many benefits of having a security resume. Not only can they provide an employment application that will be appreciated by employers, but a security resume is also a form of self-marketing, by which the candidate provides value to the employer and provides for a good reputation in the employer's community. This article will discuss some of the key benefits of security resumes and why they should be included in every security application.First of all, a security resume can be very simple and easy to understand. Many applicants do not understand how to write a security resume. The majority of these applicants do not take the time to get training on how to effectively and properly structure their security resume, especially in the area of applicant qualifications. A security resume will show the employer the applicant's knowled ge and experience in a particular line of work.Another benefit of a security resume is that it gives the employer clear information regarding the applicant's abilities and qualifications. In a world of electronic security, there is little time for the security applicant to look through the resume of another candidate to determine if he or she has what it takes to fill the position. As a result, the applicant's resume is very important, because it represents who the applicant is as an employee. A security candidate should also clearly indicate any training or certifications they may have acquired during their career.The final benefit is the certification courses the candidate has taken. Many candidates overlook the fact that a certificate from a reputable institution can prove to be very beneficial to them in the hiring process. A security applicant should always mention any certification courses that they have completed during their security resume.In addition to taking a certificat ion course, a candidate must also fully disclose all training courses they have obtained. A candidate can list courses from their educational institution and include any certifications they have received, but should not omit any information. This can negatively impact their application, since if the employer discovers they have not fully disclosed their prior education, then they may question the security candidate's expertise.Finally, it is very important for the applicant to list any job opportunities they have held, as well as any positions they have filled. The employer may prefer to hire the applicant with the most experience and qualifications, or they may be more interested in someone who already knows the job well. Having a security resume helps to ensure the security applicant is still wanted in the company, and the employment history reflects this.To summarize, applying for a security application does not have to be a time consuming task. Many employers can find out quickl y how highly qualified and experienced the applicant is, and that information can be reflected in their security application.

Part-Time Jobs How to Make a Lot of Money

Part-Time Jobs How to Make a Lot of Money If you’re trying to get out of debt, a part-time job can help you accelerate your debt payoff plan. Or maybe you are a parent with kids still at home or nearing retirement and you want extra income to avoid getting into debt, but you don’t want to be tied to a full-time job. Here are some of the most lucrative part-time jobs that also offer flexible hours. (Of course, earnings will vary significantly based on experience, geographic location, demand, etc.) Rideshare Driver Range: $15 to $30/hour What you need: A reliable vehicle, smartphone, ability to pass a background check. “Over the past year, we’ve seen a huge influx of drivers and a few rate cuts so while it’s not as lucrative as it once was,” drivers can still make good money, says Harry Campbell, publisher of TheRideShareGuy.com. “Generally, the bigger the city, the better the money.” He says drivers tend to make the most money on Friday and Saturday nights. Best of all, he says this work offers “immense flexibility.” Bartender Range: $10 to $75/hr What you need: Training ($250-$600), ServeSafe Certification ($40), uniform and bar kit (about $50 together). Lea Hatch, owner of the event planning and bartending company, A Shot Above Entertainment, Inc. says that she, her husband and their staff work mostly on weekends, giving them a full-time income for a part-time lifestyle. “A bartender/server with our company will make a minimum of $80 for four hours,” she says, “but in general we average $100 to $150 per night. Our most lucrative events net us $800 to $1,200 per staff member.” In bartending jobs, income is often heavily dependent on tips, which can vary. Office Professional Range: $20 to $30/hour What you need: Experience requirements vary depending on position. Companies looking for part-time experienced workers are often in a “high-growth stage” but “hesitant to invest in human capital, just don’t have the work to justify 40 hours per week,” says Ellen Grealish, co-founder of FlexProfessionals, LLC. “Top part-time roles in terms of number of requests are finance (bookkeeping and accounting), administration (personal assistant, office manager, administrative, etc..) and HR (generalist, recruiter),” she says. If you have specialized skills â€" you are a whiz at Quickbooks, for example â€" you may be able to bring in $25 to $35 an hour, contract specialists often make $50 to $60 per hour, and some attorneys who no longer want the grind of working full time can command $85 to $100/hour, she says. Special Events Worker Range: $12 to $15/hour What you need: Requirements vary, training may be provided. Special events, such as hotel banquets or concerts are often staffed in part by part-time workers who handle the influx of customers. Companies may find these workers through sites such as Shiftgig.com. “Highest paying gigs come from customer service positions at silent auctions that pay $15/hr and includes a $20 travel stipend,” says Shiftgig co-founder and CEO Eddie Lou. “Onsite managers can earn $20/hour.” Babysitter Range: $13 to $18/hour What do you need: Clear background check and drug test, CPR and first aid training, speak fluent English. Working professionals, celebrities and families looking for childcare help when traveling or attending special events often need reliable screened adult babysitters to watch their children. They turn to firms like The Babysitting Company where the screening has already been done for them. “Our professionally trained sitters work both part time and full time,” says Rachel Charlupski. She adds that there is a great degree of flexibility and many sitters are students, nurses or retired professionals. “Some sitters work with one family throughout the year and others wait for shorter-term assignments whenever they are available and remain on call. We have even booked travel assignments as 5 a.m. where a sitter had to be at the client’s plane at 8 a.m. to travel to Germany.” Read next: These 6 Million People Have No Interest in Full-Time Jobs Close Modal DialogThis is a modal window.

Web Designer Range: $20 to $150/hour What you need: Web design skills “Designers with strong portfolios can make incredible money, particularly if they team up with small website marketing firms that build/maintain websites for small- and medium- (sized) businesses,” says Josh Lindenmuth, CIO with the payroll company Payce, Inc. He says one designer he knows personally made over $15,000 a month on the side. “The key was that he became extremely good at churning out great sites fast. He could get done a $1,000 site every two days, while a less skilled designer/developer may take two weeks,” he says. Web design skills â€" which can be learned online or at local community colleges â€" and a great portfolio are essential. Designers with special skills can also command higher incomes. For example, motion graphic designers on the marketplace shakr.com earn 70% of all revenue earned (indefinitely) through their Adobe after-effect templates. Dog Walker Range: $15 to $75/ hour What you need: Must love dogs! May also need to be licensed and/or bonded, and purchase insurance. Earnings depend on locale and will increase if you can walk multiple dogs at the same time. On the plus side, “It provides plenty of exercise and you will meet new and interesting people on your walks,” says career counselor and executive coach Roy Cohen. “My dog, Oskar, is walked twice a day by a group of folks who are all artists, actors or students,” he says. Tutor Range: $15 to $200/hour What you need: Ability to tutor children or adults in specific subjects. “For teachers, ex-teachers, college instructors and grad students this is a great option,” says Cohen. It may help to work through a tutoring company initially to learn the ropes, though pay will be lower than if you work on your own. Increasingly, good tutors can work through online portals, which means less travel to client homes, and those skilled in high-demand areas, such as SAT tutoring, can earn more. Business Consulting Range: $150 to $300/hour What you need: An MBA from a top-tier business school and/or specialized expertise. Rather than hiring large consulting firms, some companies are now working on a more ad hoc basis, hiring individuals for strategic planning, process improvement, creating presentations and more. Rob Biederman, co-founder at HourlyNerd.com says technology now makes it simpler and more affordable to connect consultants to companies that need help. Our consultants “make a profile that feeds into an algorithm and when a project gets posted you will be automatically invited to bid on it.” Marisa Goldenberg, whose education included a computer science degree from Princeton and an MBA from Harvard, often earns $250/hour and up as a consultant to top companies through HourlyNerd.com. “Depending on your experience level and what kind of project you are looking for you can set it up to work as much or as little as you want,” she says. She says she often sprints for a month, working very hard, then takes a break. Whatever side income you pull in, just make sure you save it or use it to strategically pay off your debts. (Don’t make the mistake I made right out of college when I worked part-time in a retail job where I spent a good portion of my earnings on clothes!) Paying down debt can boost your credit scores (and you can get your credit scores for free on Credit.com to track your progress) which in turn can help you get out of debt faster.

Career Management Are YOU Lazy - Work It Daily

Career Management Are YOU Lazy - Work It Daily Career Management Are YOU Lazy - Work It Daily Career Management Help Warning! I’m about to speak in code. We like to think of ourselves as: “Not interested in making big money” “Not overly ambitious” “Focused more on life than work” Code for all these excuses is “I’m lazy.” Related: 6 Career Management Hacks That Will Get You Ahead Being lazy is something we don’t like to admit to ourselves, much less to our own mother (who will love us no matter what, except when being lazy). We will substitute other words and rationalization for our behavior. You think we can’t tell, but we can. You’re lazy, and second to bad body odor, no one really wants to be around that, even if you’re charming. (OK, maybe if you’re charming, but only then.) Career Management Help If you're in the ranks of people of whom I’m describing, you need to pay attention to what I’m about to share. Someone needs to give it to you on the chin. You may have reached a point in your adult life where you realized you don’t care if you get ahead, excel on the job, get a promotion, or even much of a salary. Lazy is about effort, and you discovered you simply didn’t want to put in any. You were willing to forego these things as a trade off. As a lazy person, you have learned to do things to try to hide the blatant truth about yourself. You have tried to look like you didn’t care if others passed you by. Perhaps you even attempted to look like those things were too materialistic. The great thing about rationalization is that it seems to sound good and even logical to some extent. To you perhaps. I’m here to expose your ugly truth. We really can tell. As much as lazy people think they've hidden the truth about themselves, at some level the rest of us know. We pretty much let you keep thinking that we can’t see what you’re all about. You didn't ask “does this rationalization make me look lazy?” Here is some of the other code this signifies. It says that while you might truly just not want to do anything, it says you haven’t checked in to life. You don’t get it. We’re at our best when we are productive and contributing. We’re even better when we’re so passionate about our work that we can’t wait to get to it again. It says you might be afraid to try or might not be able to stand the failure that comes with striving. What you’re missing is that it will make you feel great about yourself. Not because you kept up with other people or met some type of social standard. You would feel great because you had something you strived to achieve and did it. As a co-worker, you aren't our first pick to work with. You can’t be trusted. If I know you’re lazy, I’m not sure what you will or won’t do. Many times, in your attempt to look like something you aren't, you may inflate what you know or will do. Most of the time you don’t know what you will or won’t do. Your rationalizations are filed under “Ignore.” You've preordained your outcome because of your “lazy-speak.” We can all see through this and because, even if you’re charming, what good is working with someone you can’t trust? The best people I've had a chance to work with are generally running faster than I am. Where does this leave us? If you’re lazy, you’re missing out on a big chunk of life. I recognize some people think there is a magical dividing line between work and life, but I’m here to say the line doesn't exist. This is your life or at least a big part of it. Stop trying to fool yourself. The effort you think will be so painful will be the best time of your life, if you just let it. Try some career management. Fall in love with your work.
