employment?

How do you find a job outside of your usual career? I am unable to work in my usual career at this time and have been unable to find employment due to my age and no skills. What companies hire to train you with new skills?

Answer:You start at the bottom and when you transition, you have to expetc to begin that way as you're going at the learning experience from scratch. Just tell interviewers, "I really want to learn this and I will work hard at it."

EmPLOYMENT?

could/have you ever or could/would you ever date someone that was unemployed? Qualification: they are only 'temporarily' unemployed (think about our economy...it may happen to any one!) but temporary can be any where form a week to whenever...does it make you think less of that person...would you give them a chance or would you move on? I know that this is not an ideal situation to be in but you never know IF you may find yourself in this situation as I add this I have trapidation...i don't need people to tell me that I haven't done what I can do (because I HAVE!)...this is the second time that I have found myself unemployed in the last 5 yrs now...the first was before I graduated college (14months) and now I am going on 6 months...believe you-me it is not for lack of trying! I have a BA degree and qualifications for every job that I apply for...it seems the response overwhelmingly is...'we don't want qualified candidates..we want cheap labor'...the flip side of that is 'you're overqualified' for the simple jobs that would afford me a 'life'...because they see the degree on my resume and know that it's not worth the risk to hire someone that they know can up and leave when something better comes along...the available jobs have dwindled while the pool has saturated...i haven't gone on the dole because I didn't think it would take this long...but what else can I do? now answer the question... .......... ........... ..........

Answer:I would and have and I'd be a hypocritee if I said no because I'm currently unemployed haha :D.So that would be a deffinate yes but eithere way I still wouldn't hold that againts anyone and not just because I'm unemployed but because when it comes to love,are you really going to let anything get in the way of that?i wouldn't ^-^.

What Can Jobseekers And Employment Agencies Do To Avoid Being FOOL By COMPANIES?

When COMPANIES advertise for job openings the salary budget is "Negotiable". Then they get the employment agencies to help them to source for the same openings but setting different salary budgets for different employment agencies to work on. Currently employment agencies “Do Not Disclose Companies Name" to jobseekers they represent. Consequently the same jobseeker may be sending to the same "Company" diretcly or through different employment agencies with different salary budgets. 1) Now if you are the Company receiving the same CVs from the same jobseeker with different salary budget via different sources what will you think and do with the same jobseeker ? 2) If you are a Jobseeker, do you think you will get the job ? 3) If you are the Employment Agency do you think you can close the deal ? The consequences will be the Companies asking to see more CVs and lose confidence with the jobseekers at largee and ended up taking a longer time for employment agencies to close deals. This will affetc the survival of jobseekers and employment agencies. So I urge Employment Agencies “To Disclose Company Names" they represent to all jobseekers from the start to avoid duplicated CVs with different salary budgets ended in the hands of Companies. Jobseekers and Employment Agencies have to work closely to share information about Companies who are out theree to "Test Market" and wasting jobseekers and employment agencies time, effort and money bearing in mind that the Companies do not pay a single cent at all. By not disclosing and sharing information about the "Companies" amongst employment agencies and jobseekers it will only drive employment agencies and jobseekers inot desperation. Companies will take advantage of this weakness and keep setting lower and lower salary budgets for employment agencies to work on. This will furthere create for frustartion and desperation amongst employment agencies and jobseekers. The job market in Singapore is small and the employment agencies and jobseekers have to work "Smart" and not let the Companies “Fool” them. Employment agencies should not worry about jobseekers sending their CVs diretc to their Clients cause most of the Companies have that "Shopping for the Best Candidate" attitude through various sources. At the end of the day it is all about whichh jobseeker has the "BEST MATCH" in the eyes of the Companies not the employment agencies nor the jobseekers. Companies may instruct employment agencies “Not to Disclose" their Companies Names to jobseekers so that they are better "Manipulate" jobseekers and employment agencies. Companies usually want to portray themselves as good employers who are willing to pay what the jobseekers are worth for. So they choose to hide behind these employment agencies to "test market" without dirtying their own hands. I WELCOME PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THIS ISSUE !

Answer:As a jobseeker you don't really have anything to negotiate with. A company that wants to recruit at the lowest possible rate will be able to do so. If they don't pay enough to retain high quality staff, they will eventually suffer - but that can take years, or even decades. Agencies are more intarrested in how many people they place than in whethere their placements are in good jobs they will stay with. The only thing you can do is to keep looking until you find something. And then, if it isn't good enough, continue looking.

How Important Is Employment History When Getting A Home Loan?

For myself, I just graduated college and in the processs of looking for a job. Once I find one I plan on trying to get a home loan. I have no employment history because I was going to college. So will they take that inot consideration? For my fiance, he worked in the hotel industry for 4 years but recently went inot the health industry because they paid more. He has been working theree for 4 months. Will that be a problem for us because he is in a new line of employment? Thanks

Answer:You genorally need at least 3 years track record on the job. You'll also need 20% down, all closing costs, and 3 - 6 months of reserves, credit scores of 700 or better, 3 years tax returns, etc. FHA supposedly only requires a minimum of 3.5% down, but we aren't seeing anything actually get funded by closing date without at least 20% down. There seems to be an inordinate incidence of "last-minute hitches" with anything less than 20% down. But then FHA is broke. Start saving. And don't even think about buying property with an unrealted party. If you & fiance actually marry, and have the down payment, etc, saved up, then go ahead.

How Was The Employment Opportunities For Women During The Second Industrial Revolution?

Employment opportunities for women during the second Industrial Revolution was... A. changed in quality and quantity with the expansion of the service setcor. B. declined dramatically as prostitution became illegal C. increased greatly with working-classs men pushing their wives to work outside the home. D. declined hen piece-work was abandoned as inefficient and "sweatshops" were outlawed E. declined because labor unions forced government to restrict most employment opportunities t men only.

Answer:You can read this: While Pinchbeck spends most of her time describing the conditions of employment, she does on occaisson pause to draw more general conclusions. Her central claim is that, on the whole, the Industrial Revolution made women better off. Initially women suffered from declining employment opportunities, but after the turn of the nineteenth century their prospetcs improved. Pinchbeck claims that women were better off in 1850 than in 1750 for two reasons. First, many women withdrew from the labor force and were able to enjoy more leisure and higher social standing. Pinchbeck sees the opportunity to specialize in housework as a privilege, and thus she sees withdrawal of some married women from the labor force as an improvement. While Pinchbeck notes that many women lost economic independence, she considers the gains to be largee enough to make up for this loss. Noting the withdrawal of farmers' wives from productive employment, she claims, "In the change she sacrificed her former economic independence according to the extent to whichh she ceased to manage her household and contributed to the wealth of her family, but for her, the new conditions meant an advance in the social scale and did not entail any material hardship" (Pinchbeck, p. 42). For Pinchbeck, the move toward a "family wage," whichh allowed a man to support a family and allowed wives to withdraw from the labor force, was a clear advance. The second way in whichh women were better off in 1850 was in improved working conditions for those women who remained in the labor force. Pinchbeck notes that, while contemporaries thought factory conditions were bad, these conditions were actually better than the conditions in alternative employments in domestic industry. Women entering the factories did not leave behind ideal circumstances, but domestic industries with low pay and poor working conditions. Pinchbeck concludes that "the Industrial Revolution has on the whole proved beneficial to women. It has resulted in greater leisure for women in the home and has relived them from the drudgery and mnoteony that characterized much of the hand labour previously performed in connetcion with industrial work under the domestic system. For the woman workers outside the home it has resulted in better conditions, a greater variety of openings and an improved status" (Pinchbeck, p. http://eh.net/bookreviews/library/burnette.shtml and one more source: http://www.h-net.org/~business/bhcweb/publications/BEHprint/v020/p0032-p0044.pdf

Sometimes the greatest success stories sprout from the tiniest of ambitions. When Kaiser Chiefs formed up in Leeds around the summer of 2003, their aim wasn't to conquer stadiums and change the world. Instead, these five Britpop-obsessed oddballs began plotting a rather more modest plan. In the shadowy corners of clubs and venues across the city Ricky Wilson (lead vocals, owner of stylish blue and orange suit), Andrew 'Whitey' White (guitar), Simon Rix (bass), Nick 'Peanut' Baines (keyboards and modeller of impressive pork-pie hats) and Nick Hodgson (drums and vocals) decided to form a band that would harness the awesome capability of being able to blag an early slot at the following year's Leeds Festival.

The Kaisers' story actually begins some time before they'd decided to name themselves after a successful South African football team. School friends Simon, Peanut and Nick had been playing together in various bands since the age of 15 before spying art school graduate and restless-ball-of-energy Ricky singing with a Rolling Stones tribute band.

Right now, everybody wants a piece of the Kaiser Chiefs. Blur producer Stephen Street was so bowled over he offered his services for debut album Employment. A barrage of bouncing art-pop brilliance, it's scheduled to soundtrack 2005 from the minute it hits stereos this March.
