10 Alternatives to Coffee to Help You Stay Alert

10 Alternatives to Coffee to Help You Stay Alert If youre anything like me, you know what Monday mornings are like before coffee. Just awful. Recently however, Ive actually been on a bit of a mission to reduce my coffee intake after realising I was basically a coffee-fuelled alien before 10am. What I have realised is that it IS possible to have a good morning without coffee (unbelievable, I know!) and there are a few things you can do to replace the coffee-shaped-hole that appears when you cut out your  morning americano. Here are my list of alternatives to coffee. Some weird, some normal none including caffeine! 1) Hydrate: Nothing perks me up quicker than a large glass of water in the morning. Its actually been proven that drinking a glass of water can make your brain action 14% faster! Its also a refreshing alternative to coffee, and will get your metabolism working long before you arrive at work. 2) Get on YouTube: If you need a perk up, get on YouTube and watch some standup comedy. Researchers form the University of Warwick found that if employees watched stand-up comedy videos their productiveness improved by 12%! 3) Eat something nutritious but delicious: Eating a banana is 100 calories of goodness, which will refresh you and keep you alert. And no caffeine in sight! 4) Have a wander: If youre feeling tired or unmotivated, going for a brisk walk can inject some much needed energy into your day. Even if its just a short one  out of the office to get some fresh air, it can improve your productivity dramatically. 5) Listen to your favourite song: If im ever having a lacklustre moment at work, sticking on my favourite song  always gets me pumped and feeling more awake. 6) Be a jumping jack: I try and avoid this at all costs, mainly so I dont look like a weirdo in my office, but if youre not afraid to do some jumping jacks in the middle of your workplace, then why not?! It will get your blood pumping and definitely make you feel more alert. 7) Pull your earlobes: Bit of a weird one admittedly, but apparently if you pull on your earlobes youre supposed to feel more alert. I conducted a small experiment, and I can say that this tip doesnt work for me  but give it a go by all means! 8) Eat some chocolate: SO this may be a little bit of a cheat, because dark chocolate does actually contain a little caffeine. However, dark chocolate has actually been proven to improve mental alertness. Chocolate also makes the brain release endorphins and Seratonin, which make you feel happy! Finally, an excuse  to eat chocolate. 9) Crank up the air con: Theres nothing worse than a hot and stuffy office. Improve alertness by keeping your office cool. Not too cold though theres no point in torturing yourself or your colleagues in order to stay awake! 10) A splash of cold water: Simple, but highly effective! Wash your face with cold water whenever youre beginning to feel sleepy. Youre guaranteed to feel more refreshed, straight away.

6 Career Transitions That Take Less than 6 Months

6 Career Transitions That Take Less than 6 Months If you’re considering a career change, you’re not aloneâ€"25 percent of Americans change careers every single year, according to  Right.com. So if youre looking for a new challenge, simply need a change of scenery, or want to find a career that offers a higher salary potential, you need to consider the required training and the costs involved. To minimize your overall investment, consider a career that requires certificate programs that take six months or less. Six Fast Frugal Career Transitions 1. Heavy Equipment Operator The program required for a heavy equipment operator can be completed in as little as three months, and the job prospects are modest. Student Scholarships.com confirms that new infrastructure funding will push demand for this type of work in the next year or two. The number of job prospects is set to match the demand, making this field competitive in a healthy and productive way. 2. Paralegal The paralegal industry is as vast as the real estate industryâ€"paralegals and legal assistants are found in many organizations, but the majority are at  law firms, corporate legal departments, and government agencies. In the case of paralegal, there is no universal certification that is accepted across the board. The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that the quickest way to become a paralegal is through a certificate in paralegal studies. Comparatively, interning is an immediate way to get hands-on experience and pursue paralegal long-term. 3. Manicurist An often overlooked subfield of cosmetology, this program only requires a handful of months to certify. Working World details that job prospects are fair, and salary right out the gate can easily reach $20,000 annually. Fortunately, this is only slightly less than the salary expectations of a full (and more lengthy) cosmetology program, which Money US News reports as $22,700. 4. Veterinary Assistant As a veterinary assistant, you’ll be responsible for assisting veterinarians and specialists during treatment and care. A Veterinary Assistant program can be completed in as little as four months via programs like  PennFoster.edu. It is also an excellent point-of-entry for being a lead veterinarian. The cost of the program, compared to a four years bachelor program at an accredited average school, is 84 percent less. 5. Real Estate Broker Becoming a real estate broker requires a number of examinations and courses as specified by your state; however you can begin the process during a two- week real estate license course. 6. Accountant According to Get Educated, the accounting industry expects a 10 percent increase in demand. Because the field is vast, it gives newcomers to the industry a world of options. If you’re considering entering this field, a certification program takes approximately six months to complete. Depending on your personal goals, one of these paths might suit your needs. With limited time and cash investment required to certify, you could be off and running in a new career before you know it. Image courtesy of  Ben Earwicker.

Have You Got the 10 Traits of a Top Billing Recruiter

Have You Got the 10 Traits of a Top Billing Recruiter The top billers in the recruitment industry possess a number of key characteristics that prime them for success. So have you got what it takes? Our list runs down those essential traits that will take you to the top!  1) Communication skills:  All sales roles rely on excellent communication skills, and as a recruiter you need to be an excellent listener, and speaker. The biggest billers really hear what they are being told, from both client and jobseeker, and often pick up on different messages using both overt and subconscious cues. Big billers use questioning to find the information that they need to serve their customers, and know how to communicate verbally and in writing, to a high standard.  2) Relationship building:  Linked to the point above, the top billers prioritise their client and working relationships, and spend time nurturing them. By knowing their stakeholders, great recruiters can ensure they deliver whats required of them, and they build up loyalty and a great reputation in the process.  3) Confidence:  Watch any big biller walk into the room and you will know about it. You dont need to be loud, overt or egotistical, but you will walk with confidence, speak with authority, and have an attitude that you are there to help others achieve their aims, and to serve clients to the best of your ability. Confidence in your abilities will inspire others to trust you, and give you their business.  4) Delivery focus:  Big billers know that they are only as good as their last hire. They will value quality delivery and prioritise it ensuring that their clients are delighted with their work and ready to trust further assignments to their care. A great recruiter will always deliver to the best of their ability and aim to exceed client expectations. They will know that their reputation is the most important thing they possess and being reliable is essential to maintain it.  5) Marketing abilities:  It is essential to be able to promote and market your services and skills effectively, showcasing your knowledge and demonstrating your ability to add value to the recruitment relationship. To be as good as a big biller, you need to hone your selling, negotiation and convincing skills to build up a client base, and win great business. Remember, marketing applies to an attitude as well as a range of activities. Consider how your market yourself in every interaction from the way you present yourself with your dress, handshake and business card to the way you follow up on client meetings with a thoughtful note, client entertaining or other value-add activities to position yourself in the forefront of the clients mind.  6) Target driven:  Those big earners focus on their targets and aim to exceed them. They view targets as a challenge and a starting point, and find pride and excitement in smashing them! Most big billers will set themselves additional stretch targets and increasingly focus their attention on the most profitable business, rather than automatically chasing every lead that comes their way. Naturally, they will think strategically, prioritising those relationships which look set to have long-term value, rather than worrying overly about short-term wins.  7) A proactive attitude:  No recruiter will find success if they wait for work to fall into their laps. The most successful in the industry will constantly be seeking out profitable new relationships, developing key clients, and using their time in valuable ways. They wont waste time surfing the net or idling on LinkedIn they will be out there, meeting with clients, meeting with jobseekers, networking and marketing their services to prospects. Crucially, they will do a vast majority of their business face to face, and never hide behind databases or social media.  8) Hard graft:  Great recruiters are dedicated and dont avoid the tough stuff. Whether that involves cold calling, working a room or setting appointments, they are constantly putting in the work needed to be successful, rather than waiting for someone to do it for them! You will often see the most successful recruiters starting work and finishing before the majority of the team not because they are falling behind in their work, but because they are committing to getting the job done and to staying ahead of the pack! Hard graft, particularly at the start of your career, will pay dividends later on once you are established and have an excellent reputation to trade on.  9) Personal skills:  Great recruiters will be able to multi-tasks, manage their time, be patient, and work quickly. They will use systems and processes to organise themselves and prioritise work. They will avoid time wasting and low-value tasks, and make sure they have a clear plan for each working day. Smart recruiters will also work effectively in teams and use the resources that they have at their disposal, directing their time and effort towards the highest value activities and accounts to make the best use of their energy.  10) Digital awareness:  Modern recruitment does require a degree of computer literacy which can put ambitious young recruiters ahead of the pack. Smart professionals in the field employ a variety of social media recruitment approaches and techniques across a range of platforms, blending on and offline activity to achieve intended objectives.

Job Marketing Are you pulling them to you - Hire Imaging

Job Marketing Are you pulling them to you - Hire Imaging In your Job Marketing, the way job candidates and employers connect has changed. Employers now primarily source candidates by using online methods. I’ve found that many job seekers are missing the boat, by overusing the push method of marketing during their search. Here are some tips on integrating the pull approach to better access the hidden job market. Job Marketing: Push and pull defined In marketing, there are two primary ways of reaching a target market or audience. In push marketing, you push your content or product (as a job candidate, you are the product) towards the audienceâ€"which may or may not be aware of it. Pull marketing entails the active development of a highly visible brand. This encourages employers to actively seek you out, because they believe you can meet their needs. Job Marketing: How pull worked for my client My client, Trish recently found out firsthand about the power of pull marketing. Trish is an educational administrator, who has been quite visible throughout her state. Last week, she was contacted by a large school district’s HR director through LinkedIn. Trish had never met, marketed to or spoken to this HR director. Here’s the LinkedIn message: Subject: Job opportunity for District 123 Alternative Education Coordinator Hello Trish â€" I noted that you presented recently for Education Indiana’s Special Education Committee. We have a need for someone with your expertise. Are you interested? Respectfully, Jane Doe, HR Director, District 123 Jane had read Trish’s LinkedIn profile, which also linked to her career-related activities. Through her research, she discovered that Trish was her “purple squirrel”   of job candidates. Trish responded via LinkedIn. A phone conversation with Jane, and a face-to-face interview with the Search Committee followed. She was hired. She had never reached out to them; she had never pushed out to them. Job Marketing: Integrate your approach The best job marketing is versatile. Your best success will come from integrating the pull and push methods. Here are a few of each: Push Resume mailing, blasting or emailing. This can work but with a caveat: Make sure your resume is focused and contains a compelling ROI value proposition, authentic brand and relevant metrics-driven successes. Job boards. The major job boards like Monster and CareerBuilder while still job-search vehicles, statistically only produce returns of about 7%. Don’t spend more than 20% of your time on boards. When using job boards, try using aggregate or niche boards; or go directly through the company website. Vizibility. This is a free tool that lets you establish your own customized Search Me button; it allows for more efficient Google searches about you. You can use the Search Me button in email signatures. Intelligent and personal networking. Personal networking still ranks as one of the best ways to find a job. Tell everyone you know what you want and why you deserve it. Similar to personal networking but executed in an accelerated and targeted manner, intelligent networking is applying a best-fit-targeted search campaign of 25 or so companies you would like to work for. Then, leverage the business intelligence of the Internet: Job listings (search engines), company news (web spiders or Google news feeds) and degrees of relationship separation (LinkedIn connection data). Pull Profile YOU. Creating and maintaining a branded profile on social networking sites is becoming more essential for job seekers. LinkedIn is perhaps the number one place internal recruiters look for job candidates. Zoominfo is another favorite database for recruiters. A Google profile is a great place to control your Online Identity Management challenges. You can present your job marketing pitches on   Facebook. Twitter is an emerging force in job search. Blog or personal website. This is a great way to centralize personal content and improve online identity; it’s also a wonderful platform to describe and define your personal brand. You can keep it simple; do pay attention to keywords and search engine optimization. If you write well and are a Subject Matter Expert, a blog might serve you well. Have online conversations. Demonstrate your credibility by posting relevant comments on LinkedIn or other social media site discussions. Comment on blogs. Set up Google alerts on topics of interest to you. You’ll then be notified of anything you feel you’d like to comment on. Talk in public. If there is community-based education that offers a class in your area of expertise, consider teaching a class. If that doesn’t fit your schedule or comfort level, perhaps you could give a speech at a local service or Chamber group. Talks frequently cover only about 20-30 minutes. Focus on speaking about a subject that demonstrates your professional expertise. Then let the audience know that you are “available” for the right job opportunity. By combining the methods of reaching out (push) and becoming visible to help employers reach you (pull), you will have a multi-faceted job campaign. Do you have ideas to share about pull methods you’ve used successfully in your job search? I’d love to hear from you! Photo: RumpleTeaser
