5 ways to make your post-vacation transition a little easier
5 ways to make your post-vacation transition a little easier5 ways to make your post-vacation transition a little easierComing back to work after a vacation to a place near or far can leave you scatterbrained. All of a sudden, you have to snap right back into work mode, and remember to do a bunch of things as you ease back into your regular routine.Here are five post-vacation transition hacks to make this process easier.Get your clothes and lunch ready beforehandStart thinking about what you want to wear to work while youre knee-deep in laundry after your trip.That way, you can tell what you need to prepare and whats ready to go ahead of time - not the morning you go back to the sekretariat.Packing your lunch the night before (if you bring it) and doing meal prep can also be a good way to make sure you have the energy you rely on to get the job done when you return.Check your fare cards do you have enough money for your commute?When youre on the other side of the state, country, or the world during vacation, the last thing youre probably thinking about is your commute. Thats why its important to make sure youre prepared for it when you get home - especially if youre going to rush to work on the first day back.If you take the train or the bus, youll want to make sure you have enough money to get where youre going. Leave extra time to load up your fare card(s) at the machine if you cant do it online.Dont wait until you get to the office to check your messagesThis includes Slack and email.But while answering email on vacation wipes out your good memories, that doesnt mean you have to wait until you walk into the office to log into your inbox again for the first time. In fact, that can be a pretty scary feeling.If you have a little bit of downtime when you get home, jump at the opportunity to get ahead before work so youre as caught up as possible.Ask your colleagues what you missedYour manager wont always have the time to get you completely up to speed when you get back, so fill in the gaps by asking your colleagues about what you missed - especially if theyre people you think you can trust.You might be able to rely on them for details, but if you have follow-up questions, be sure to confirm the answers with your manager. Also check to see what upcoming meetings youve been invited to, and which you missed while you were away.Dont skimp on sleepI repeat, DONT SKIMP ON SLEEP Youll be really sorry that you did.This is especially important if you just returned from a trip to another time zone, and jet lag is gnawing at you every so often. So give your body the time it needs to adjust. Sleep as regularly as you can when you get home, and try not to stay up too late the night before heading back to work.

Dont be Tempted by these 5 Resume Tricks
Dont be Tempted by ansicht 5 Resume TricksDont be Tempted by these 5 Resume TricksDisguising a spotty job history, avoiding showing your age, trying to get around resume-screening software are all things some people look at when putting together a resume. You also might be encouraged by well meaning friends to try out some of these tricks to get past these challenges. My advice dont do it These will almost always backfire on you as most qualified hiring managers will see right through these little resume tricks.When putting together your resume, there are five resume tricks you should definitely pass upUsing a functional resume Somewhere along the line you might have been advised to use a functional resume instead of a chronological one to help hide gaps between jobs, downplay being out of work for long periods of time or to disguise short-term stays. Functional resumes are rather simple they list abilities and skills without being tied to specific jobs and dates unlike a traditiona l resume that utilizes reverse-chronological order.So whats the issue with this format? Once again, any savvy hiring manager is on to these types of resumes that are generally used to disguise outdated or limited work experience or job hopping so they are red flagged for trying to cover something up. This format also makes it hard to understand career progression or how recent or ancient accomplishments actually are. Most employers hate this format so the likelihood of yours getting tossed before it gets read is very high.Shrinking your resume Heres a nifty little trick that most resume novices feel will really help them shrinking margins and font instead of cutting down content because theyve heard that their resume shouldnt be more than one or two pages. When a hiring manager has to break out the magnifying glass just to read your resume, its pretty obvious what youve done. Youll only come across as someone who doesnt know how to edit or whats important to include this is elend the reaction youre looking for.Leaving off dates Sometimes older candidates are ill advised to leave off dates of employment so potential employers cant draw any conclusions about their age. They assume that including dates will make hiring managers draw conclusions about their capabilities to old to set in their ways to expensive etc. The fact is, when you leave dates off your resume, it just looks bizarre kinda like leaving the house without your house without pants. Dates of employment are relevant not just convention. Hiring managers want to know if the team management skills that achieved such great results were current or happened thirty years ago.Now, I do understand that age discrimination is sadly a fact in the workplace so there is one thing you can do remove jobs that are older than fifteen to twenty years. At this point your most recent accomplishments are more impressive and the older jobs are unlikely to strengthen your candidacy anyway.Keyword overkill To attemp t at getting by resume-screening software job seekers have begun littering their resumes with keywords. They feel that the only way their resume will actually be seen by human eyes is if they figure out the holy grail combination of keywords. The fact is, most companies especially small ones dont even use screening software. And, those that do dont screen using obscure keywords. If youre a qualified candidate, any decent screener is going to ansturm varied and expansive searches to make sure your resume gets seen. Think about it youre tailoring your resume to what you think a computer wants to see when in reality its a human who has the final decision on whether or not you actually get called in for an interview.Getting fancy Dont try to stand out or catch a hiring managers eye by sending in a fancy or unusual resume design. Yes, when youre faced with competition from an ocean of similarly qualified candidates, the urge is to find ways to stand out by using a graphic filled, color ful resume design. This often backfires because it makes it difficult for the hiring manager to find the information theyre looking for. And, these fancy designs often minimize the actual amount of info you can include on your resume.Look, the bottom line is that hiring managers want a simple, clean, uncluttered document thats easy to scan and puts the information where they expect it to be.
