Despite Improved Job Market, Workers Fret About Job Security
Employees remain anxious after having watched friends and family get laid
off and struggle to find new jobs. They also see worrisome aspects in the
economic recovery. Many of the new jobs are relatively low-paying,
service-sector positions
By Ed Frauenheim
Hiring is up; layoffs are down. Yet an improving job market hasn't
translated into feelings of security for Matt Kiefer's team of medical debt
collection specialists. Kiefer, director of operations at collections firm
MediCredit Inc. in the Orlando, Florida, area, says his staff of six
collectors and a few support personnel hasn't fully recovered from painful
layoffs last year. After MediCredit's parent company the Outsource Group
acquired Kiefer's collections unit from a Florida hospital, nearly 20 people
lost their jobs.

More Companies Go With Online Tests to Fill in the Blanks
Employment assessments can range from online exams for a specific computer
skill to personality tests intended to predict customer service prowess to
extensive evaluations of potential executives.
By Ed Frauenheim
Companies are giving employment testing high marks these days. Despite a
still-tepid hiring climate, spending on assessments of job candidates and
existing employees rose about 20 percent last year, according to vendors in
the field. Josh Bersin, president and CEO of Oakland, California-based
research firm Bersin & Associates, estimates the global market for
assessment tools and consulting to be between $1.5 billion and $2 billion
annually.

Two Hidden Problems With Your Resume
Here's a question I get in one form or another almost every week: "I've sent
out 50 resumes and not had any job interviews. What's wrong with my resume?"
Answer: There may indeed be a problem with your resume, and I've been
writing about effective resumes for more than 10 years, so I invite you to
Google that subject to learn what I think.
But wait.

How To Sell Yourself Like a Product at a Job Interview
Interviewing for a job is in many ways comparable to a sales person making a
sale. If you were a sales person and were about to sell a product to a
customer you would do some homework or research so that you could convince
your customers that your product was the best product on the market to fill
their needs.
