                                                How to Accept a Job Offer in a Professional Manner?
                                            
                                                Receiving a job offer is always a great thing. Considering the competition in the jobs market, the natural instinct is to shout “Yes!” and hug the person standing next to you. While it is ok to have that kind of reaction at home or even during a walk in the park with your friends, you must act differently with the employer.&nb...

                                                The job search process gets very exhausting today. People spend hours on sending their application documents to multiple employers but the result is not what job seekers expect (to say the least). And it's one thing when you are not qualified for the jobs applied - then the fix is pretty obvious. But it is another thing when you have done...

                                                Success is not a matter of luck, especially when it comes to such concept as career success. Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and others didn't get to the top of the heap just because of luck. Those are people who planned their success and executed that plan to achieve great things. Planning your career can significantly help people ach...

                                                What Message Should Your Resume Convey?
                                            
                                                Today when job seekers work on their resumes and cover letters, their main challenge is to choose what kind of information to include and how to organize it in a way that would eventually lead to employment. In other words, the most frequently asked question is what kind of message should I convey on my application package and how should ...

                                                Whenever we go through tough times in our lives we are tempted to give everything up and just go with the fact that you won't be successful anymore. Failures are often great stumbling blocks; and while some people have the courage to overcome those challenges many don't think they have what it takes to keep going. This also applies to car...

                                                Last time we wrote about creative people and what kind of jobs could be the best match for them. Since people with creative personalities are not quite like everybody else (they view this world differently and they think in a different way) there are certain jobs where their abilities could be used to the max. But before one actually gets...

                                                When we think of getting a job (or sometimes even switching jobs) most of the time we imagine ourselves working in a large company. This is so true especially for recent graduates as they apply for their first job. It seems that a job in a big corporation can ensure more job security and access to new opportunities. While this is true the...

                                                It is interesting that most people believe that in order to get hired everything you need is a well-written resume. While sometimes it can happen, it would be a mistake to take it for a general rule of a job search. Job seekers often tend to overestimate the real value of a resume. Its role in getting you an interview or let alone a job i...

                                                Unfortunately, most of us don't get what we want at the moment we want it. It takes time to work on things before we can actually achieve something we have planned before. Obviously, we are not talking about buying a chocolate bar or something like that. What we are talking about is professional career development and growth. Like in any ...

                                                Most articles about resume writing and job search are all about how things are to be arranged on the piece of paper in order to achieve the best effect. At Prime-resume we believe that it is important to keep the individuality of the candidate in a resume so we encourage our readers to try and develop their application documents on their ...
