David J. Gardner's Resume Success

Amplify’d from davidjgardner.com

Have you ever wondered what REALLY happens to your resume when you send it off to a company?

Because they don’t know you yet they have ONLY ONE WAY to evaluate you, only one way to decide if you get the interview or the boot:


Your RESUME.


Recruiters come in all shapes and sizes; some are managers, some are junior generalists, some recruit part time in a human resources department, and others recruit full time independently.  They all have their little quirks and personal opinions about resumes, which can make it all seem so arbitrary and luck-driven. When you talk to one alone it seems as though they evaluate resumes by feel, by their gut.  But when you talk to a LOT of recruiters you begin to realize that there are patterns in their opinion.  In fact, if you speak with enough of them and ask enough questions you begin to find that there are unsaid RULES that they all silently follow to choose which resumes will get the interview.


And many of them are NOT the rules found in the largely outdated information on resumes on the market today.


Recruiters are frustrated by the poor quality of the average resume. In fact, only 5% of resumes submitted to top companies are considered excellent. People just don’t seem to get it!  The challenge is that while great recruiters know exactly what they want to see and how they want to see it, it’s not their job to help you fix your resume! 


So you’re left with generic online templates, cut-rate ‘certified resume preparers’, and blind luck to have success with your resume. Most resume books come from either resume professionals with no recruitment experience or from one person who worked long term at one company.


No more.


I have spent months interviewing recruiters from Fortune and Maclean’s magazines ‘Top 100 Companies to Work For’ in the US and Canada to find out what THEY look for in a great resume. I also went to the recruitment agencies to receive feedback from professionals with background in over 20 top agencies. I have personally evaluated tens of thousands of resumes as a recruiter.


In short, I KNOW what top companies want to see in your resume.  I asked them.


How would you like to have the wisdom of over 50 recruiters with more than 600 years of recruiting experience in top companies from virtually every industry helping you build your resume?


How would you like to have recruiters who personally review over 761,000 resumes a year for top employers on your shoulder, guiding you as you create the resume that will put you in the top 5% in your industry?


Now you can.

Pregnancy Diet

Many women across the world require a pregnancy diet to maintain a healthy body and reduce the chances of a birth going wrong. When a woman is pregnant her body goes through many changes and usually needs more minerals, vitamins and good nutrients on a daily basis.

pregnancy diet

After conception you are now eating for two people and you
cannot run the risk of harming the baby by consuming things that could hinder the development of your
child.



While you endure the visitations of your physician you will
surely hear words like folic acid and iron. There are some women who say that being pregnant actually helped them
lead a healthier lifestyle through exercise and healthy eating which was all triggered by the thought of their baby
being okay.



Don't fall into the trap of eating more because you are
carrying a baby. this is so WRONG and does nothing but cause problems. You only need on average about 400 extra
calories a day during pregnancy. Of course this varies depending on your current weight.



The bottom line is this though. There is about 40 weeks to
endure during pregnancy and you need to eat right to maintain great health for you and the baby. Over eating does
nothing but complicate things for you and the child.



consult with a nutritionist and doctor for a proper diet for
you and try to stick to it as much as possible. We are not expecting you to follow it every week that could be
stressful. the point is to make sure you have a guideline so you don;'t get to far out of whack with weight or
nutrients that are surely need during pregnancy.



Here is something to follow for your generic
guideline:



 •  Choose vegetable rather than animal
fats


 •  Eat plenty of salad, vegetables and fruit (preferably
raw)


 •  Drink water and fruit juices to keep up your fluid
intake


 •  Take adequate daily exercise (low impact)

 •  Eat a wide variety of nutritious foods

 •  Ensure you have a good intake of calcium

 •  Be sensible about sweet and fatty foods

 •  Drink tea and coffee alternatives such as herbal tea and
de-caffinated coffee

Early Pregnancy Symptoms

Amplify’d from www.pregnancydiary.net
early pregnancy symptoms

So what are some of the early
pregnancy symptoms
that you may have to deal with as a pregnant women? Well the most common are
morning sickness, constant urination, tender breast, facial acne and even the occasional ups and downs of your
emotions.



Some women in their early stages also experience
headaches. This normally occurs in the 6th week and can be controlled by more naps during that time. A common sign
of course is a missed menstrual cycle. It's almost 72 percent you have conceived a child if you have been actively
sexual and this happens.



No one really likes headaches so try to keep in
mind that they are temporary and usually go away by the 3rd or 4th month of pregnancy.



Fatigue



Getting tired or the fancy word fatigued is also
another indicator of being pregnant along with the above symptoms.



Spotting



A very light period may start occurring as a
symptoms of being pregnant as well. There are many women who report this and sometimes it's an indication of a
miscarriage. Make sure you check with your doctor if this occurs.



Heartburn and constipation is normal in the months of 1 to 4
and this is caused by hormonal changes within the body of the women. remember you are now carrying another human
which can cause the changing of your digestive system and also place pressure on vital organs which causes stress
and other strange things. Symptoms vary from person to person so be aware of all symptoms and read as much as you
can about pregnancy.

Our Planet

Amplify’d from greenerstep.com

Our Planet


The ordinary toothbrush is the ultimate throwaway item, often used for a few short months and then discarded. We questioned why all this plastic was being piled up in landfills and dumped into our oceans, when the only part that wears out is the brush. Our solution was to create our first product, the Snap Toothbrush System with replaceable brushes and reusable handles.



As good citizens of the planet we are all trying to make "greener" choices. We cut back on the use of plastic shopping bags by opting for reusable bags. We eliminate the need for bottled water by using reusable bottles and filling them with tap or filtered water. But many of us simply don't realize that toothbrush-related waste is enormous and once a toothbrush is discarded it is never recycled into other products. Using conservative estimates, over our lifetime the world will use and discard over 2 trillion toothbrushes generating the same amount of plastic waste as 6 trillion plastic grocery bags or 1.5 trillion plastic water bottles. By simply reusing our toothbrush handles we can reduce plastic waste by over 90%.




The more informed we are the better choices we'll make -- so please share this page with your friends and family and help us spread the message.


Using some conservative assumptions we've summarized the following conclusions:




  • Our average life expectancy is about 75 years

  • Each of us will replace 300 toothbrushes during our lifetime (4 toothbrushes per year)

  • A single conventional toothbrush weighs approximately 18 grams (.63 oz.)

  • Each of us will throw away about 12 pounds of plastic toothbrushes in our lifetime

  • There are 6.8 billion people on the planet

  • Plastic toothbrush waste generated during our lifetime = 80 billion pounds

  • 80 billion pounds is equivalent to 7.3 million African Elephants



What would happen if we switched to the Snap Toothbrush System?




  • A snap-in brush head weighs 1.4 grams (.05 oz.)

  • This is less than 8% of the weight of a conventional toothbrush

  • By cutting out 92% of the plastic waste generated by conventional toothbrushes, we
    could eliminate over 74 billion pounds of plastic waste from the environment
