Considering the current economic climate and the ever increasing pressure on job seekers to find a job, some employers do not comply with federal regulations by discriminately selecting their employees. In many cases, some job seekers may be now willing to abandon some of their rights during an interview to get the job. But job seekers have rights and during an interview employers are prohibited from asking the applicant a certain number of information.Therefore, it is essential to know what information you should not be asked about and you are allowed to refuse to divulge. Employers are banned to ask an interviewee about his or religion, whether or not he or she is a member of a union, whether he or she has a disability even though questions relating to ability to perform the job c

If that hasn’t happened to you yet, you can bet your payroll that it’s going to happen soon. We’re in the early stages of a workforce crisis unlike any that has ever descended on American companies. As the Baby Boomers (who comprise one third of the U.S. population) start to retire, they are creating a significant brain drain. The skilled bodies just aren’t there to fill all their places, not by any demographer’s yardstick. While predicting numbers of new jobs and whether the employees will be there to fill them is an inexact science, most experts interpret data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to mean there will be a significant shortage of skilled workers in the near future—which will only escalate as Baby Boomers start turning 62 in
Just ask the residents of Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory.
Imagine a late afternoon on Christmas Eve thirty years ago, and looking outside to see your street cloaked by heavy low cloud and your windows being rattled by ever stronger rain squalls and wind gusts.
Two-hours after an eerie tropical sunset another check shows the winds are picking up sheets of corrugated iron and hurling them around like autumn leaves in a light breeze.
By midnight, as Santa was meant to bring the children of Darwin their presents, the damage is becoming serious. Over the next six hours Cyclone Tracy substantially destroys Darwin killing 65 people - 49 on land, and 16 at sea.
As dawn breaks on Christmas Day 1974, the early light reveals the devastating damage - 145 serious injuries, more than 500 with minor incidents, 70 per cent of houses are destroyed costing the community over $800 million dollars.

An aphorism used saying it takes money to make money. And it is obviously true in case of starting a business. A business cannot be started without a capital. And after starting it, you require money to expand it too. But now, with the coming of the internet, many ways have sprung up using which it is possible to expand your online business, or more specifically speaking, generating traffic to your site, without spending even a cent.In the internet, you will find many ways to jumpstart traffic flow to your site, most of which are paid services. There are, however, free methods too to generate traffic. These, when used alone or more profitably in conjunction with other paid services, can help generate more and more traffic.To use these free methods, however, you need a lot of

Hiring someone new to work in your business is one of the most critical decisions a business owner makes, although it is not always given the justice it deserves. If a position is vacant, or additional staff are needed, recruitment decisions are often driven by the pressure to get someone in quickly, rather than waiting for the best person to fill the job. Lack of proper and systematic recruitment process can also result in a high cost to the business.The direct and indirect costs of this recruitment process are many, and have been estimated to be at least 30% of the new person’s salary on average:Recruitment costs – include advertising and agency fees (if used), travelCost of time – for everyone involved in the interview process<

If you’re one of the 58% of Americans who have considered starting a business but don’t know how to proceed, help is at hand. The following steps will show you how to transform your dream of business ownership into reality.1. Figure out what you want to do. You’re not alone if you know that you want to work for yourself but aren’t yet sure what exactly you want to do. Start by making a list of your interests, talents, and skills. Talk to your family and friends and begin brainstorming ideas. The sooner you begin your quest, the sooner you will find the answers.2. Start saving now. It is wise to have at least one year’s worth of living expenses in the bank before you quit your day job. It will take time to make a new business profitable, and it could take longer than you expec

Corporate branding!! Have you ever given a prime thought to what corporate branding means does? If not try it, Branding means process by which true character and purpose of the company or organization is communicated. And it starts with corporate logo. Corporate logo makes a mark on customers. A well designed logo gives any company or organization a higher edge against the competitor.Brand identity guru Wally olins says "Brands are the tools with which companies seek to build and retain customer loyalty. Because that often requires expensive advertising and good marketing, a strong brand can raise both prices and barriers to entry."Designing may seems very easy task but designing a brand is very creative, thoughtful and logical approach for any business houses. Implementing

And the media is far more demanding now than 30 years ago in 1974.
By preparing for such an event and having in place a crisis communications or emergency media plan, much of the added drama of having to deal with the media can be avoided.
The media plays a vital role in informing people what is happening during a crisis.
I remember as a fresh-faced, acting ABC Executive Producer at the tender age of 26-years old having to co-ordinate the emergency broadcasts for Australia's most powerful cyclone.
I'll never forget that day on the 23rd of April 1989 as a category 5 cyclone (on a scale of 1 to 5, 5 is the most powerful) crossed the North West Coast of Western Australia.
Known-as 'awesome' Orson, the cyclone caused the strongest wind gusts ever recorded at over 280 km/hour.
I remember that confused feeling of fear and excitement when your leadership is really tested. I had to ask one of the 'old hands' what I should do because I was so concerned, in
