Some tips to tip the scale your way when it comes to making sure you are going to be happy where you decide to work. These are some questions that I always ask. (at New York, New York)

Asking questions really does clear up allot. I’ve found that I learn something new from asking the same questions to different people. The different answers I get begin to create a pattern. The call with this recruiter reminded me to not get swept up by someone else’s pace. By staying true to my own beat, I make better decisions for myself. (at New York, New York)

On average I receive about 10-15 emails a day about open positions in my field. SQL has been my flagship skill that most of these emails ask for.

There are a few tricks I’ve picked up along the way to market myself better, here are some of them. Share your tips if you’ve got some. (at New York, New York)

Bloomberg is a pretty big company especially here in NY. This position has some good aspects to it, like a long contract period. I try to look at as many aspects of s potential job as possible to make a good decision about it. I’ve found that looking at it this way allows for each aspect to be negotiated a little more toward your benefit. If you have some ideas about how to this, I’d love to hear it.

So I might be interviewing for this position this Wednesday. I had an interesting call with a recruiter I’ve felt with in the past. It’s for a position with a financial company here in NYC.

Between job descriptions that can be the length of an essay (way way too long) and the language barrier that you can encounter, it can be a serious challenge assessing if a position a good fit. My 2 cents is that the initial call with the recruiter is imperative, during that call keep centered on what’s important to you and pick out the main aspects of a position that give you a better picture. It’s up to you to drown out the extra noise that comes with an opportunity and zero in on the aspects of the job that truly determine if it’s a great fit.

Before going out there and showcasing your skills, calls like this remind me how important it is to know your worth, the value of your skills, the market you are selling them in and the going fair rate. For the full 📎 check 🔗 in BiO (at New York, New York)

This call reminded me of the importance of moving to your own beat. Some recruiters give you the sense that a speedy decision is critical to you getting a position. If that’s the case then you’re better off letting that position go. The first stop is always YOU. Being cool headed and approaching decisions about your career at a comfortable pace is the only speed you should be concerned with. You are the asset, take your time and make a decision you will be happy with. (at New York, New York)

Your career is where you will invest most of your time. It’s imperative to do all that you can to make sure it’s a good fit for YOU! Take your time, ask the right questions and know your worth!! (at New York, New York)

My 2 cents is your skill, talent and experience are never to be devalued. Performing a job remotely does not mean you should be paid less. In fact you are working that much more productively and you should be paid fairly for that! (at New York, New York)
