Hello lovely people! I have a secret…. Sometimes I get anxious and feel bad for taking breaks here and there throughout my workday… There’s a part of me that thinks the expectation is content work and constant results. But guess what? I remember that I’m human and I’m not a machine. Even machines need breaks for maintenance and so do I. If you’re feeling guilty about taking breaks. You shouldn’t feel that way. You need a break sometimes. It’s okay to take a break from work. Let’s normalize that! #jobsfromjess #jessicahicks #careergoals #jobsearching #careerblogger #motivation #quotestoliveby #workfromhome #recruiting https://www.instagram.com/p/CS97KZnFNfm/?utm_medium=tumblr

By request, I’m sharing another “Ask Jessica” (not Google) 🤣. So in the workplace we collaborate with a number of people with different personality traits. I was asked yesterday, “how do you deal with passive aggressive work colleagues”? The answer: You can’t, sorry. Just kidding. While it can be tough to work with someone that is very passive aggressive in their communication or actions, I’m sharing my thoughts here on how to manage. ✨First you absolutely should not lose your cool or accuse them of being passive aggressive, often times this will back fire on you. ✨Instead keep things very work focused and when talking with them focus on the specific message you’re hearing for them (avoid getting side tracked by how the person delivers their message) ✨Then you can confirm what you’re hearing and let them know you’re trying to understand where they are coming from. Remind them of the goals you not have and why you’re working together in the first place. ✨Gain allies that can relate to the situation and who understands the persons passive-aggressive behaviors and partner with them to help in getting to a resolution. As you interact with them, keep things work focused, don’t take their behavior personally and keep good allies that you can vent to and get support to mediate. Hope this helps!!

Why do you work? Most of us work each day to fulfill three basic needs: 1) To earn a livable wage 2) To gain personal fulfillment in something we enjoy doing 3) To have positive social interactions with others Do you agree? Is there anything you would add to the list? And most importantly are you getting these three things out of your current work?

Let’s stop adding photos to resumes. Why? 1.) It takes up space on your resume, but adds little to no value. I don’t need to know your hair color to decide if I want to speak with you for a job opportunity. 2.) People have unconscious biases that are present even when reviewing resumes. Adding a photo can add to the potential biases we may already have based on your name, years of experiences, etc. 3.) To elaborate on my earlier point, demographics are clearly shown when you add a photo. Your age, race, gender, body size, etc. do not need to be highlighted at this stage. #jobsfromjess #jessicahicks #resumetips #resumehelp #jobsearching #helpingothers #behonest #skipthephoto #picturesworthathousandwords #tuesdaythoughts💭 #careersuccess #getthejob (at Dallas, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMM_iUOFeqF/?igshid=fpwqera4mws9
