US Military Enlistment Contracts and Incentives

US Military Enlistment Contracts and IncentivesUS Military Enlistment Contracts and IncentivesAll of the tafelgeschirrs use the same enlistment contract- Department of Defense Form 4/1. This is the contract that is used for military enlistments and re-enlistments. Of all the paperwork you signed during the process to join the military, this is the most important document. If you enlist on active duty, youll actually sign two enlistment contracts. The first one places you in the Delayed Enlistment Program (DEP). The DEP is actually the inactive reserves. Inactive reserve members do leid perform weekend drills likeactive membersnor do they receive any pay. They can, however, be called to active duty in times of emergency. That said, there has never been a case where a member in the DEP has been involuntarily called to active duty. When your time in the DEP is up, and its time to go onto active duty and ship out to basic training, you are discharged from the inactive reserves and sign a new enlistment contract to enlist on active duty. Recruiter Promises Versus Contract Guarantees No matter what your recruiter promised you, if its bedrngnis in the enlistment contract, or in an annex to the contract, its not a promise. Also, it doesnt much matter what is in the DEP enlistment contract if it isnt in your active duty enlistment contract, its not a promise. If you were promised an enlistment dreingabe, for example, it needs to be in the final active duty contract, or chances are youll never see that beigabe. Once you get out of basic training and job training and go to the personnel office at your first cousine, theyre not going to give one hoot about what anyone promised you- theyre only going to care about what is in the enlistment contract. In fact, the bottom of the very first page of the enlistment contract contains the following clause The agreements in this section and attached annex(es) are all the promises made to me by the Government. ANYTHING ELSE ANYON E HAS PROMISED ME IS leid VALID AND WILL NOT BE HONORED. That said, incentives and entitlements which are available to everyone wont be, and dont need to be in the contract. This is because military members are already entitled to it by law. For example, medical care, base pay, and the Montgomery G.I. Bill wont be specified in the contract, because these benefits are available to everyone who enlists in the military. Those enlisting on active duty will have at least two enlistment contracts the initial contract for the Delayed Enlistment Program (DEP) and a final contract that one will sign on the day they go to MEPS to ship out to basic training, which is the contract that counts is the final contract. It doesnt matter if your enlistment bonus, advanced rank, college loan repayment program, college feststellung, etc., are not included in the first contract. You do, however, need to make sure all of your desired incentives are included in the final active duty contract (if your enli stment program/job choice entitles you to those incentives). Enlistment Periods Thought you were enlisting for four years? Think again. It may surprise you to learn that allnon-prior service enlistments in the United States Military incur a total eight-yearservice obligation. When you sign that enlistment contract, you are obligating yourself to the military for a total of eight years. Whatever time is not spent on active duty, or in the active Guard/Reserves (if you enlisted in the Guard/Reserves) must be spent in the inactive reserves. Paragraph 10a of the enlistment contract states a. FOR ALL ENLISTEES If this is my initial enlistment, I must serve a total of eight (8) years. Any part of that service not served on active duty must be served in a Reserve Component unless I am sooner discharged. This means two things Lets say you enlist in the Navy for four years. You serve your four years and get out. Youre really not out. Youre transferred to the inactive Reserves (called the IRR or Individual Ready Reserve) for the next four years, and the Navy can call you back to active duty at any time, or even involuntarily assign you to an active (triole) Reserve unit during that period, if they need you due to personnel shortages, war, or conflicts (such as Iraq). This total eight-year service commitment applies whether you enlist on active duty, or join the Reserves or National Guard. Heres the second thing the military may not let you out at the end of your active duty tour. Under a program called Stop-Loss, the military is allowed to prevent you from separating, during times of conflict, if they need your particular warm body. During the first Gulf War (1990), all of the services implemented Stop-Loss, preventing pretty much anyone from separating, for an entire year. During the Kosovo Campaign, the Air Force instituted Stop-Loss for those in certain Shortage jobs. During Iraq and Afghanistan, The Army, Air Force, and seestreitkrafts instituted Stop-Loss, aga in, directed at specific individuals with shortage jobs, or (in the case of the Army), sometimes directed at specific units. The key is, once you join, if there are any conflicts going on, the military can hold you past your normal separation or retirement date. Up until October 2003, the Army and Navy were the only services that offered active-duty enlistments for periods of less than four years. However, as part of the FY 2003 Military Appropriations Act, Congress passed theNational Call To Service Plan, which mandated that all of the services create an enlistment program which offered a two year active duty enlistment option, followed by four years in the Active Guard/Reserves, followed by two years in the Inactive Reserves (still the total eight-yearservice commitment). But, lets talk reality here While Congress mandated this plan, they gave the services wide latitude in implementation. The Army and Navy already had two-year active duty enlistment plans that they were happy with , and theAir Forceand Marines had no recruiter problems and werent really interested in shorter-term enlistments. However, because of enlistment shortages, the Army has dramatically expanded slots under this program in 2005 and 2006. The Air Force and Marine Corps still have little interest in a two-year active duty program. So, they implemented the very basics and applied many restrictions you probably have a better chance of hitting the lottery than getting one of the very fewNational Call to Serviceslots in these two branches. For example, under theAir Force Plan, the program is limited to one percent of all enlistments (about 370 total recruits, out of 37,000), and the program is limited to 29 Air Force jobs. The Marine Corps limit theirNational Call to Serviceenlistments to only 11 MOSs (jobs). The Army and the Navy are the only services which have active duty enlistment options of less than four years, which are not part of theNational Call to Serviceprogram. The Army offers enlistment contracts of two years, three years, four years, five years, and six years. Only a few Army jobs are available for two and three year enlistees (mainly those jobs that dont require much training time, and that the Army is having a hard time getting enough recruits). fruchtwein Army jobs require a minimum enlistment period of four years, and some Army jobs require a minimum enlistment period of five years. The Navy offers a very few two-year and three-year contracts, where the recruit spends two or three years on active duty, followed by six years in the Active Reserves. Additionally, under the Armys 2-year enlistment option, the two years of required active duty dont start until after basic training and job-school, so its actually longer than two years. The other services offer four, five, and six-year enlistment options (The Air Force only offers four and six-year enlistments). All Air Force enlisted jobs are available for four-year enlistees. However, the Air Force wi ll give accelerated promotions for individuals who agree to enlist for six years. Such individuals enlist in the grade of E-1 (Airman Basic), or E-2 (Airman), if they have sufficient college credits or JROTC. They are then promoted to the grade of E-3 (Airman First Class) upon completion of technical training, or after 20 weeks after basic training graduation (whichever occurs first). Six-year enlistment options are not open to all jobs, at all times. Most Navy jobs are available for four-year enlistees, but some special programs (such as Nuclear Field) require a five-year enlistment. These special programs usually offer increased training opportunities and accelerated promotion. Enlistment Incentives All of the services offer programs called enlistment incentives, which are designed to attract recruits, especially to jobs that are traditionally hard-to-fill. As I said above, each of the below incentives needs to be included on the enlistment contract or an annex to the contrac t otherwise, they are not likely to be valid. Anenlistment incentiveis different than amilitary benefitin that not everyone is eligible, and it must be in the enlistment contract to be valid. For example, an enlistment bonus is anenlistment incentive. Not everyone qualifies for an enlistment bonus. It depends on qualifications and job selected. Therefore, to be valid, it must be on the enlistment contract. The Montgomery G.I. Bill, or Tuition Assistance, or military medical, or amount of base pay, ect., on the other hand, aremilitary benefits or entitlements.They are available to everyone who enlists, and therefore you wont find them mentioned in the enlistment contract. Keep in mind that you cant negotiateenlistment incentives. Military recruiters and the job counselors at MEPS have no authority to decide who gets an incentive and who doesnt. Incentives are authorized for specific jobs or specific enlistment programs by the Recruiting Command Headquarters for the individual servic e. In other words, its either been authorized for your specific job or enlistment program, or its not. If its authorized, youll be offered the incentive. If its not authorized, all the negotiating in the world wont get it for you. Following are the currentenlistment incentivesoffered by the services. Enlistment Bonus Probably the best known of all enlistment incentives is theenlistment bonus. Enlistment bonuses are used to try and convince applicants to sign up into jobs that the service needs really bad. When they passed theFiscal Year 2006 Military Authorization Act, Congress authorized the services to increase the maximum active duty enlistment bonus cap from $20,000 to $40,000. Keep in mind, however, that Congress allowed the services to do so they didnt mandate it. The maximum amount of enlistment bonus is platzset by each of the services (up to the $40,000 maximum allowed by law), based on their own individual recruiting needs. The Air Force and Marine Corps offer the few est enlistment bonuses. At the time of this annual revision to this article, the Air Force was offering active duty enlistment bonuses to only 6 AFSCs (jobs), and the top bonus authorized was $12,000. The top Marine Corps enlistment bonus is currently $6,000. The Navy still caps enlistment bonuses to a maximum of $20,000. The Coast Guard presently offers a top enlistment bonus of $15,000. Of the five active duty services, only the Army has elected to increase their maximum active duty enlistment bonus cap to the $40,000 authorized by law. Sometimes, the services will offer an additional bonus for recruits who agree to ship out to basic during a designated time-frame, or for recruits who have college credits. The Army Navy do this the most often. In general, the greater the enlistment bonus, the harder time the service is having finding enough qualified applicants who agree to accept the job. In most cases, this is for one of three reasons The job doesnt sound very interesting, and the job counselors are having a hard time getting recruits to select this job.The job has high entry qualifications (ASVABscore, criminal history requirements, medical qualifications, ect.), and job counselors cant find enough applicants who qualify.The job training is extremely difficult and lots of people wash out. The Air Force, Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps will usually pay the entire bonus amount (lump sum), after arrival at the first permanent duty station, following basic training and job-school (usually within 60 days of arrival at the first duty station). The Army will normally pay the first $10,000 upon arrival at the first duty station, with the remainder being paid in equal annual installments during the term of enlistment. In most cases, if you are discharged early, or you re-train out of the job, you must repay any unearned portion of theenlistment bonus. For example, if you enlisted and received a $12,000 enlistment bonus for a 4-year enlistment, but only served in that job for three years, you would have to repay $4,000. College kenntniserlangung All of the services, except the Air Force offer a college fund. Some of the Services offer College Funds, for individuals who agree to enlist in hard-to-fill jobs. The amount of money offered in the college fund is added to the amount of money you are entitled to with the Montgomery G.I. Bill.You cant have the college fund without participating in the G.I. Bill. One word of warning the amount of the College Fund shown on your enlistment contract usually includes the amount you are authorized under the Montgomery G.I. Bill and the amount of the extra funds provided by the service. So, if your enlistment contract says you have a total $40,000 College Fund, $37,224 (2006 rates) would be from the Montgomery G.I. Bill, which you would have been eligible for anyway, college fund, or not. So, in this case, the actual amount of the College Fund (ie, extra education money given by the service) is only $2,776. Usually (but not always), if you accept the college fund, this will decrease the amount of any monetary enlistment bonus you may be entitled to. The Navy and Marine Corps offer up to $50,000 (combined college fund and G.I. Bill) for their College Fund Programs. The Army offers up to $71,424. Again, the exact amount offered often depends on the job selected. As with other enlistment incentives, if you were promisedthe College Fund, you must ensure it is listed on your final active duty enlistment contract or an annex to the contract. Advanced Enlistment Rank All of the services offeradvanced enlistment rankfor recruits with a certain number of college credits, or for participation in other programs, such as Junior ROTC in high school. The Army offersadvanced enlistmentrank up to E-4 for college, and up to E-2 for other programs (such as JROTC). The Army also offers an accelerated promotion to recruits with certain civilian-acquired job training or skills, through the Army Civilian Acquired Skills Program (ACASP).The Air Force offers advanced enlistment rank up to E-3 for college and participation in other programs. The Air Force is the only service which offers an accelerated promotion for six-year enlistees.The Navy offersadvanced enlistment rankup to E-3 for college and participation in other programs. The Navy also offers accelerated promotion up to E-4 for individuals who enlist in certain designated enlistment programs (Such as the Nuclear Field). The Marine Corps offersadvanced enlistment rankup to E-2 for college and participation in other programs.The Coast Guard givesadvanced rankup to E-2 for college and up to E-3 for other programs. With the exception of the Air Force six-year enlistee advance rank program, recruits who join with advanced rank are paid the rate of base pay for that advanced rank right from the first day of active duty. However, in most of the services, recruits do not get to actually wear the rank until they graduate from basic training (in basic, everyone is treated the same ie, just lower than whale droppings). For Air Force six-year enlistees, they enlist and go through basic as an E-1 (or E-2 if they were qualified, such as college credits) and are then promoted to E-3 20 weeks following basic training graduation, or when they graduate technical school (job training), whichever occurs first. Date of Rank as an E-3 is then back-dated to the date of basic training graduation. Airmen dont receive back-pay for this, but the earlier date-of-rank makes them eligible for E-4 earlier. As with other enlistment incentives, advanced enlistment rank must be included on your enlistment contract. College Loan Repayment Program All of the active services, except the Marine Corps and Coast Guard, offer acollege loan repayment program (CLRP). The Army Reserves, Navy Reserves, Army National Guard andAir National Guardalso offer a limited college loan repayment program. In a nutshell, the service will repay a ll, or a part of a college loan, in exchange for your enlistment. Loans which qualify are Auxiliary Loan Assistance for Students (ALAS)Stafford Student Loanor Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL)Parents Loans for Undergraduate Students (PLUS Loans)Federally Insured Student Loans (FISL)Perkins Loan or National Direct Student Loan (NDSL)Supplemental Loans for Students (SLS) Guaranteed First Duty Assignment The Army and the Navy are the only active duty services which can offer a guaranteed first duty assignment. However, since the invasion of Iraq, the Army rarely offers this incentive anymore. When authorized, under theArmy Program, you can get a written guarantee in your enlistment contract for your first duty assignment following basic training and job training (of course, there must be open positions for your particular job on the base before the Army will give it to you). This option is only available for certain, hard-to-fill Army Jobs. Additionally, the guarantee is only good for 12 months. After that, the Army can move you anywhere it wants. The Navy program is a sort of guaranteed first duty station. Under the Navy program, you can be guaranteed a first assignment in a designated geographical area. In other words, while the Navy cant guarantee that you would be assigned to a particular base, they can, for example, guarantee an assignment on the West Coast. However, under the Navy program, there is a catch the program is not available to those who sign up with a guaranteed rating (job). Its only available for those who enlist under the GENDET program. Under the GENDET enlistment program, applicants pick a general field, such as aviation, rather than a specific rating. Then, following basic training, they spend a year or so at a Navy Base, doing general duties as an undesignated seaman before they get to choose their rating (job) and go to job-school. The Guard and Reserves also guarantee the duty station because they are recruiting to fill specific, open slots in specific Guard Reserve units. When you enlist in the National Guard or Reserves, you will know, right from the start, where your drilling unit is located (generally within 100 miles or so of where you live). Buddy Program All of the services offer a Buddy Enlistment program. Under this program, two or more individuals (of the same sex) can enlist together, and, at a minimum, be guaranteed to go through basic training together. If the individuals have the same job, the services can also guarantee that they will go through job training together. In some cases (with the exception of the Air Force), the service can even guarantee that the buddies will be assigned to their first duty station together. Split Option Some of the services offer split option training for members of their National Guard and Reserve. Under split option, the member attends basic training and then returns to his Guard/Reserve unit, where she/he drills (one weekend per month) for up to a year be fore attending job training. This program is designed for those in school, who wish to spit their full-time training so they wont miss too many college classes, and for those who do not wish to be away from their civilian jobs for too long a period of time for military training. In most cases, split option isnt a very good idea, and you should avoid it if you can You are generally worthless to your unit until you have completed job training. You cant do the job you were hired for, and the unit cant begin your advanced training.If something happens to your job training date, it can sometimes take forever for the Guard and Reserves to get another training slot. When dishing out job training slots, the active duty forces get the first crack, and what is left over is offered to the Guard and Reserves.If you attend job training immediately after basic training, you will still be in shape. Its easy to fall out of shape in a years time when youre only drilling one weekend per month. Howev er, under the split training option, youre thrown back into a training environment, right alongside those straight out of basic training, and youre expected to keep up with them. Split Option members undergo the same job-training restrictions as those straight out of basic training. That means, for the first month or so of job-school, your off-duty time is strictly regimented. Thats pretty easy when youre straight out of basic training. Its not so easy, once youve spent up to a year in the relatively relaxed environment of weekend drills.

Working with friends and family members Cool or awkward

Working with friends and family members Cool or awkward Working with friends and family members Cool or awkward Working with friends and family members can be totally cool (even awesome!) when you do it right. In an ideal situation, it’d look like how  CEO and Cofounder of Infusionsoft  Clate Mask  has it; he’s managed to successfully mix family and business to build a company that does $60 million in revenue annually, all alongside his brothers-in-law and cofounders. His tight-knit team found success by knowing how to separate business and pleasure and when to prioritize each. And at an even simpler scale, working with a friend or family member that you already get along with can brighten up your days at work that might otherwise be boring, lonely or challenging.

Getting Started in Portfolio Management

Getting Started in Portfolio Management Getting Started in Portfolio Management This position varies among the firms in the industry, and the role itself differs depending on which segment of the firm you work in mutual fund, institutional or high-net-worth. For instance, high-net-worth portfolio assistants spend more time working with clients, while institutional assistants spend more time monitoring and analyzing portfolios. Regardless, the general assignment focuses on supporting the portfolio manager. Portfolio manager assistants are often instrumental in the process of screening for potential investments. Using the general strategy of the investment product such as market-capitalization, earnings growth, valuation multiples or industry the assistant screens all available stocks in the market (about 10,000) to identify the smaller list that meets the portfolio's criteria. The screened list for an active portfolio varies, but typically ranges between 100 and 300 securities. Portfolio manager assistants then gather additional research for the portfolio m anager to begin the process of fundamentally analyzing the potential investment. Once investments are made, portfolio manager assistants are responsible for monitoring the reconciliation of the trades. In this role, they work with the operations staff to assure that the portfolio is properly updated and performance records are accurate. Most firms have separate operations departments that reconcile trades and produce monthly client reports. However, many of the smaller firms require their portfolio assistants to perform the operations function as well. You should be aware of this, and clarify the exact job responsibilities when applying and interviewing for the job.Portfolio assistants also participate in the process of client service, although the proportion of time spent in this area depends on the type of client being served. For instance, an assistant to a mutual fund portfolio manager would spend very little time on client service. Institutional and high-net-worth portfo lio managers have fewer clients and they meet with them once or twice a year. Intermittently, their clients require vast and detailed investment reports and market commentaries. While marketing helps prepare these formal presentations, the portfolio manager assistant plays a crucial role in collecting economic and market data for the investment commentary and portfolio analysis sections of the report.The position requires a person who understands capital markets, is capable of meeting deadlines and enjoys working on multiple projects simultaneously. The downside is that the reporting and operational components of the job have a quick learning curve and then become repetitive. Furthermore, it is not the best place to learn how to really value companies. Rather, you are being exposed to the years of experience that the portfolio manager possesses. Most important, portfolio manager assistants receive the benefit of seeing a broad picture of investing money across several industri es, whereas research assistants typically get exposure to one component or sector. All in all, in the right setting, the position is a great introduction to the industry and a worthwhile apprenticeship to pursue.

Thats because teases are an essential part of producing a compelling newscast, yet many producers hate doing them. Thats usually because tease writing has less to do with pure journalism and has more in common with TV commercials. So producers who arent properly trained arent very good at teases. With a few basic tips, they can actually look forward to this part of their daily grind. News Teases: What Are They? Teases are what the TV news anchors say to convince viewers to watch the newscast or to continue watching. They typically come in some sort of headline format before the newscast begins and at the end of each block of news, just before the commercial break. Heres an example of a tease before a newscast: Next on Channel 5 Action News, why the governor says hes not afraid to raise your taxes. A dog faces death in a house fire but barks his way to safety. Could a hurricane brewing in the Atlantic affect your weekend plans? And see how mushrooms could be the answer to a longer life. Channel 5 Action News is next. Heres an example of a tease during a newscast: Still to come on Channel 5 Action News, shes 105 years old but is the newest graduate of a local high school. Youll meet her and see why she didnt give up on getting a diploma. Plus, dont miss an incredible video of a man who survives a shark bite at sea. Stick around, more Channel 5 Action News is coming up. The goal is to grab attention quickly to keep viewers from changing the channel or flipping off their TV set. As a news viewer, youve seen teases thousands of times. They seem simple to write, but there are key ingredients to remember when writing TV news teases so that you accomplish your goal of keeping your audience. Knowing Which News Stories to Tease A news producer may have 20 stories in a newscast. Some stories also appear on rival stations, such as a city council meeting or the governors news conference. Other stories are unique to the station. Some stories could be considered important while others are features. Just as the newscast itself is a blend of hard-hitting news and lighter fare, teases should also reflect that variety. Teases that contain nothing but car crashes, or on the flip side, stories about puppies and children would indicate that the newscast is lopsided toward one type of content. In deciding which stories to tease, a producer should consider the stations target audience. That is often determined through focus group research. That research likely already has a role in which stories get covered. If a producer is in charge of an early-evening newscast that is geared toward women, then teasing stories about health, raising children and quality-of-life issues would be one way to reach them. While this is only a generality, most TV news consultants would advise avoiding teasing crime or sports in that kind of newscast, unless theres a human interest component beyond the basics of the story. Video Is Important in Teasing Stories Because were talking television, video is important in crafting an effective tease. Occasionally, a story is so compelling that words alone will convince people to watch, but that is a rare exception. Its not just having video, but having the right video, that will make teasing easier. Shots of people sitting around at a meeting will cause yawns from your viewers. If a news reporter covers a city council meeting about all the potholes in your city, theres an opportunity to entice people to watch the story. That is to show a close-up of a cars wheels banging through a pothole, while writing, Some local residents are fed up with this rocky ride around town. See what theyre telling city leaders to do about these potholes of peril. The much more common, and lazy approach would be to show the city council meeting, while writing, The city council met tonight to discuss the problem of potholes on some local streets. Well have a report from city hall coming up. That second example not only didnt use the best video available, but the words also didnt contain much energy. A city council meets regularly on all sorts of issues, so the producer didnt sell this story as being interesting to watch. Common Mistakes in Tease Writing There are all sorts of sins when it comes to tease writing. The penalty is a wasted opportunity to grow your newscasts Nielsen ratings. The first common mistake is to ignore any sort of viewer benefit of watching the story. The Legislature met today to talk about taxes. Well have more. Far better would be, Find out which legislators want to raise your taxes.. and by how much. Another mistake is to include meaningless words and phrases, which dilute the pitch youre trying to make. Well have the story. Well have more. Details ahead. Obviously,  the story is ahead. A third mistake is to write a tease that doesnt pass the So what test. Doctors have new information about vitamin C. Tell viewers why they should care, instead of allowing them to say so what? Doctors have new information about vitamin C and why getting too much of it can be bad for your health. Now people want to know whether that glass of orange juice may be hurting them. A final common mistake is over-promising while under-delivering. Think of a restaurant that promises the worlds best apple pie, only to give you something that came out of a supermarket freezer. You would never order the pie again. So, if you say a story is a must-see, incredible, unbelievable with never-before-heard information and money-saving, life-changing tips, make sure you deliver on your promise. Most viewers wont stand for being fooled but once.

Combatting Age Discrimination in the Job Search Part I of III

Combatting Age Discrimination in the Job Search Part I of III Combatting Age Discrimination in the Job Search Part I of III The first article in a three-part series on conducting a job search later in life. As many of you mentioned in your comments on my previous article, not everyone who’s 50 years old or older has the luxury of an encore career.Many job seekers need a full-time job with full-time pay, and are feeling the negative effects of a down economy. I’m not going to sugarcoat it â€" finding a job in general is more challenging than ever. Trying to find a new job later in life can be even more frustrating. Studies have shown that employees in their 50s or older are not only more likely to be laid off during hard economic times, but they’re also known to have longer periods of unemployment before they are able to re-enter the workforce. There are a number of factors at play here, including age discrimination.It may not be fair, but it’s real - age discrimination is alive and well in today’s workplace. We could talk for hours how recruiters, hiring managers - society as a whole - should change their mind-set, but that isn’t going to help you land a job any faster. What we really need to discuss is what you can do to compete against other candidates - regardless of their age - in today’s job market.I’ve broken my advice into six sections, which we will publish in three parts: Preparation, Search Close. These insights and tips are not based on my coaching experiences and research alone. I’ve reached out to career coaches, recruiters and HR professionals I’ve worked with or met throughout my eight-plus years at Ladders to provide both overarching advice and practical tips you can use right away.MindsetYour state of mind can unknowingly boost or sabotage your job search efforts. If you think the age issue is standing in the way of your job search, then it will. I’m not saying age discrimination doesn’t exist. If you feel your employment rights have been violated, you can file a charge of discrimination with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commis sion (EEOC). But getting angry about it doesn’t help. It wastes valuable time and energy that could be better spent on your search efforts. And it makes you less marketable. No one wants to hire a candidate â€" whether they’re 25 or 55 years old â€" who comes across as bitter and resentful.You have a lot of value to offer a potential employer. Your experience, industry expertise and maturity are all selling points. Workforce Engine Director of Talent Acquisition Jennifer Scott has worked within the recruiting and talent acquisition space for more than 14 years. While she admits that age discrimination exists, she says that in her experience, if you can sell your expertise and demonstrate your value, companies will value that.Don’t hide from your age, Scott says. Be proud of your experience. Scott adds that age is a state of mind. Demonstrate a positive, upbeat and energetic persona, she continues, and don’t show any sign of cynicism. So put on a smile when you’re networkin g or speaking with a recruiter during a phone screen â€" even if you don’t feel like it. Your goal is to come across as confident, passionate and full of energy and expertise. Fake it till you feel it.Job GoalsBefore you can begin your search, it’s important to clearly define your job goals. No one is an expert at everything and, in fact, employers won’t expect you to be, as today’s job market requires subject matter expertise. Take inventory of your strengths and preferences to guide the direction of your job search. Chances are you’ve worn many hats during your career. Focus your current goals on the key skill sets and strengths you’ve utilized, particularly within the past 10 years of your career.Consider the accomplishments you found to be most satisfying and rewarding during this part of your work history. What was the focus of that work? What was your motivation? What role did you play? What was the work environment like? What core values guided the project? This w ill help you uncover the skills and organizational culture that work best for you.Be flexible as to how you get back into the workforce. When you’re nearing or past the 60-year mark, often your best bet is to pursue something other than the traditional full-time job, such as part-time, consulting or freelance work. Scott advises job seekers not to be afraid of consulting opportunities. Gigs often turn into jobs, she says. These less traditional roles can also help grow your network of connections, uncover additional opportunities and boost your resume following a period of unemployment.ResumeIn a research study conducted by Ladders, we found that the average recruiter spends six seconds reviewing a resume before deciding to chuck it in the garbage or set it aside for closer inspection. You have six seconds to make the right impression. Before your resume even reaches a recruiter or hiring manager who is more knowledgeable about your line of work, it must first get past a piece of software (known as an Applicant Tracking System or ATS ) and a junior level sourcer or HR coordinator who conducts the initial screenings.Your goal is not only to have a resume that supports your job goals, but also make sure it’s easy to read and is ATS-friendly. Here are seven tips to help you get there: Restrict the amount of experience you include to the last 15 years, and remove college graduation and certification dates that fall outside that time frame. The emphasis should be placed on the most recent years of experience. Limit your resume to two pages. This shouldn’t be as difficult, now that you’re only displaying the last 15 years of work experience. Considering the amount of time a recruiter spends on resumes, anything longer than three pages won’t get read. Resume writers will rarely create a resume that’s more than two pages. Avoid the jack-of-all-trades approach. Although you may have worked in a number of different roles throughout your career, your resume shouldn’t be a laundry list of everything you have done or could be capable of doing. Instead, it needs to align with your current job goals. Tailor the information to highlight the accomplishments that reflect your qualifications for your desired role. Incorporate common buzzwords, terminology and key phrases that pop up in the majority of the job descriptions you’re interested in applying to (assuming you have those skills). This will help you make it past the initial screenings â€" especially with an ATS â€" and on to the recruiter. Don’t include embedded tables, pictures or other images in the resume â€" it confuses the ATS system. Also, don’t use the header or footer portions in the Word document for the same reasons. Create your resume heading outside of this area, at the top of your document. Use one of the following font types that are considered highly readable and don’t confuse the ATS systems: Arial, Calibri, Cambria, Tahoma, Book Antiqua or Franklin Gothic. Times New Roman is also fine, but I recommend against it since it’s so common â€" your application will look like everyone else’s. Include one professional-looking email address (we recommend setting up a free email address with Gmail), one phone number (where you can control the voicemail message, who picks up the phone and when), and a customized URL for your LinkedIn profile at the top of your resume. This will help control communication and steer the recruiter toward the right online profile. Tomorrow’s installment will focus on personal branding and the pursuit of new opportunities.

What You Should Know About a Midlife Career Change

What You Should Know About a Midlife Career Change What You Should Know About a Midlife Career Change Transitioning to a new career can be difficult at any age, but making a midlife career change comes with additional challenges. For many reasons, changing your career when you are in your 40s and 50s is much harder than doing it when you are in your 20s or 30s. When you are middle-aged, you have more responsibilities, like a mortgage and your childrens college tuition, to consider. You may be hesitant to risk a stable career for something uncertain. Before you make a move, get all the facts about any occupation you are considering. Think about doing an adult internship to immerse yourself in a new career before making a commitment. After spending, at least, a couple of decades in one career, you may have an established reputation. It will be hard to start at the bottom again. Here are five  things you should think about before you make a midlife career change. 1. How Much Education and Training Will You Need? You may have chosen a new career that requires very little retraining. If you can simply transfer your current skills to your new occupation without having to acquire any new ones, all you will have to focus on is your job search. When you are looking toward entering a career that requires a whole new skillset, however, you will probably have to go back to school or undergo some other kind of training. Are you willing to put your energy into it? How long will it be until you can actually start working? When you are in your 20s, or even your 30s, that may not be a big concern, since you have many years ahead of you to work. If you are in your 40s or 50s, you must ask yourself how long you want to keep working. Will you have to spend a great deal of time training for a career that you will only work in for a short time? Will the return on your investment be sufficient? 2. Can You Withstand the Financial Costs of a Career Change? A career  change can be costly. If you have to continue your education, tuition is very expensive. Even if you can afford it, balancing work and school can be difficult. You may have to cut your hours at your job to complete school in a timely fashion. Are you ready for a pay cut? A new career often means starting at the bottom. That could come with a much lower  salary than the one you are currently earning. 3. Do You Have Your Familys Support? Going through a major transition like a midlife career change requires a  lot of support from those around you. If your family isnt on board, it will be difficult to succeed in this endeavor. Before you embark on such a big change, talk to your spouse and children. Everyone will have to pitch in to make this transformation possible. There may be less disposable income for doing things like taking vacations and buying new things. Your spare time will be taken up with preparing for your new career. Family members may have to help with household chores. 4. What Is the Typical Age of People Working in the Field You Are Considering? Some industries are filled with very young workers. The only people even near midlife, may be those in management. Will they be willing to hire you for an entry-level position if you are in your 40s or 50s?  Sure, age discrimination is illegal, as it should be but that doesnt stop those in charge of hiring from committing it. Your only recourse will be to file charges against those employers who refuse to hire you. That is probably not what you had in mind when you decided to embark on a career change.  You wanted to enter a new career, not a battle.  Before you move forward, thoroughly investigate the occupation you are considering and the industry or industries that would employ you. Talk to people who work in it to find out if you have a decent chance of getting hired. 5. How Long Will It Take to Become Established in Your Desired Career? When you begin a new career, your first job will likely be an entry-level one. After doing that for a year or two, you will probably be able to apply for a higher level position. Your prior work experience might help you advance faster than your much younger colleagues who are just starting out, but it may not. Your experience in this new career may be all that counts. It may take quite some time until you  are able to do the type of work you wanted to when you made the decision to switch to this career. Ask yourself if you will be satisfied with that. Your answer may depend on how far away you are from the age you want to retire.
