Questioning asked:


When you go to the Employment office in the “Things To Do” list on webkinz, click on that. Then if you dont see the job that you like, or the one that you arent so great at, go back to the “Thigs To Do” list and click on another subject (Example: Newspaper) and go back to the Employment Offfice after a few minutes. New jobs should be on the board.

xfileaddict1969 asked:


any advice to give to someone entering this field in obtaining employment within a school district? is it who you know or who knows you even for this type of career? My sister is trying desperately for the past several years to get into a nearby school(any within 25 miles) and has to go thru the district rather than to the individual schools. when she does this she has a resume’ along with 5000 others for the same job! Any tips for her? is this field really that filled with educators? She has also been told that if she gets a masters degree she will be overqualified and even more districts will “overlook” her? is this totally ridiculous? She really is VERY good at what she does and has a lot of experience forom places such as kinder care and baby-sitting, but noone will hire her.
Please, serious replies only! thank you!

Write a Better Resume: 10 Tips

Resumes may inspire fear in the hearts of job seekers, but they don’t have to. Just follow these 10 tips to a better resume:

1) Be sure your contact information is up to date. In this fast-paced era, we often change phone numbers, email addresses, and so on. Make sure that you change your resume to reflect the latest, most current information and to ensure that the employer is always easily able to contact you.

2) State your intentions clearly. You should always start off by stating your career objectivewhat is your goal in terms of your desired position and industry? Explaining this under the heading “Objective” gives the employer a shorthand indication of exactly what you want.

3) Write in your own voice. It’s tempting to use complicated vocabulary to make your resume and application more impressive, but more often than not this ends badly. You may misuse words or give the employer the impression that you are posturing and overreaching, and that’s never good. Stick to a tone and style that you are comfortable with.

4) Don’t be too modest. The resume is a place for you to shine. Explain your accomplishments proudly. Let the prospective employer know what you have to offer, and don’t be afraid to blow your own horn.

5) Keep it to one page. Unless you have a very long or very extensive professional history, you should never let your resume go beyond one page. Keep your background short and specific to what matter most to the employer.

6) Be specific about your qualifications. Even though it may be tempting, you should never just send out the same Xeroxed resume to every company you’re applying to. This may save you some time in the short-term, but it’s not going to win you very many job offers. The more you can tailor your resume to specific employers the better as this will prove how well suited you are for a given position.

Salary requirements should not be listed. Employers often ask for your desired salary, but the resume is not the place to put it. Salary discussions should be left until later, after the interview, when you have more leverage.

8) Proofread. No matter how careful you are when you’re typing out your resume, there’s bound to be at least a few errorspunctuation errors, spelling errors, grammar errors, or just careless mistakes that make the entire resume look sloppy. Don’t let a handful of casual mistakes (or even a single flaw!) undermine all your hard work. Proofread carefully so that the resume is perfect when you send it off to prospective employers.

9) Get someone else to proof it, too. Two pairs of eyes are always better than one. You are often too familiar with your own resume to be able to view it objective and catch errors; allow someone to proof your resume thoroughly.

10) Make sure your resume has a professional presentation. Thin paper with streaky ink is not a good way to present yourself to the employer. Use thick resume paper with clear ink, preferably printed with a laser printer. Remember, appearances count for a lot!

Remember the 6 P’s: Proper, Preparation, Prevents, Particularly, Poor, Performance.

10 Tips to Produce a Winning Resume

By On October 17, 2008 No Comments
employment tips
plays a crucial role in our lives. Whether its your first job or your changing your profession, a winning resume is what you need. This will distinguish you from the rest. So, it’s time to focus your time and energy on creating that winning resume. There are thousands of employers just waiting to hear from you and now is your time to shine.

The resume is the first impression an employer sees of you and it has to shine as your entrance into the employers mind. It should be something that is different and yet simple and it should follow some conventions.

Today’s resumes though have to tell the employer about you in about 10 seconds or they move on to another person. I order to make sure you’re one of those who get into an interview; here are 10 tips to help:

1.Clarity – make sure that your resume is clear and reads well. Employers are checking for more than just what you do; they want to make sure you can write well.

2.Attractiveness — although you aren’t there are win a beauty contest with your resume, it should be pleasing to the eye and attention getting. You can do this without using special characters.

3.Keywords — every profession no matter what it is has a variety of keywords it uses. The employer will expect you to use these words on your winning resume.

4.Formatting — formatting your resume is part of the attractiveness. Always use a clear font like Arial and at least a 12 font. Remember it has to be easy to read and for some employers, smaller fonts are difficult to see.

5.Check it once, twice, three times — check your resume to make sure there are no typos or misspellings. This leads to a sloppy resume. Have someone else check it over as a second opinion.

6.Make it interesting — although a resume highlights your job information, it can be an interesting read. Use full sentences and only write about your experience that is pertinent to the job for which you are applying.

7.Use action words — we emphasize this in two points because people forget to use action words. You want your resume to come alive in a manager’s hand and you want it to look different.

8.Motivation — what motivates you in a job? Let the employer know. It is very important to let the potential employer know what job you are applying for and your goals and objectives for that job.

9.Emphasize achievement not job duties — let the employer know what you achieved in the other positions. They will want to know what you will bring to them.

10.Customize your winning resume — if you have had more than one job or interest, it’s a good idea to have more than one resume targeted to each interest.

You can use this list to check off your winning resume to see if you have everything you need. The better you represent yourself to an employer, the easier it will be to get that interview.
