Why People Buy Things (And Why They Might Buy (Hire) You)

Why People Buy Things (And Why They Might Buy (Hire) You) Saturday morning I was a guinea pig for Jeroen Latour in the Netherlands, as he practiced a presentation for his job.   The presentation focused on why people share things with others (specifically through Last.fm), and touched on why music becomes successful. There were two things Jeroen talked about regarding music taking off: Social Appeal. Everyone else is listening to it, so it must be good.   Or, someone I trust listened to it, or likes it, so it must be good.   Or a major influencer listened to it and recommends it.   This is a word-of-mouth recommendation. Substance/Quality. The band really is *that* good.   Other examples: What kind of car is the best car to buy (the one that wont be in the shop every other month)?   What is the best computer, pen (I know people who are pen connoisseurs, and have a favorite pen that is the bomb), hamburger, french fries, tshirt, socks, shoes, etc.?   I hate shopping at the dollar store because the crap they sell is usually broken before we get home. Im not an expert in the psychology of why people buy things, nor am I an expert in why people hire, but it really made me think about what we can do, as job seekers (interviewers, candidates, etc.) to increase our chance of getting hired.   Lets take these two points and relate them to YOU, as the product, making yourself more appealing. Change Social Appeal to Emotions or feelings. Im hungry, Im bored, sad, lonely, happy, ecstatic, proud, satisfied, hot, cold, etc.   I remember hearing that if we are trying to memorize something, and we can tie emotions into the memorization process, well have a much better chance of memorizing it, because those emotional ties are so strong.   Who hasnt made an emotional purchasing decision (or bought on a whim)? I think the most important thing here is sharing stories.   Stories make your numbers, and your experience, and your skillz come to life.   When I was in marathon interviews (as an interviewer), all of the resumes seemed to look the same, and all the lame answers to my questions were the same.   It was all cliche, and I was dying for something to jump off the page to be different. If you tell me stories, I will be able to get out of my gray boring funk of listening to blah blah blah and hopefully become enthralled by your story. (did I just use a story to illustrate the power of stories??) Later, when I mentally sift through all the interviews, youll probably stick out because of the stories you told.   Others gave facts, with no emotion, but YOU gave stories.   And thank goodness there are mini-stories on your resume, to help me remember you even more. Substance. Ive been wondering how to write about this for a long time.   Many job seekers want that next great gig, but they arent good enough for it.   They dont have the skills, abilities, experience or education they really need to be successful.   For example, I cant be a doctor right now.   I cant apply to be a staff accountant, a chip designer at a semiconductor plant get the point?   I dont have the substance, or quality, to be that right hire. I wonder how many of us are applying for jobs that really are beyond our reach.   Just because we read Good to Great does not mean we can be the next great CEO.   Just because we read Jack (about Jack Welsh) does not mean we are ready to lead a team at GE, or any other company.   Just because we read an article on project management (or take a MBA-level project management class) does not mean we are ready to be a project manager. Do you have substance?   Do you have the professional depth to make you the right candidate?   If not, I can only suggest two things:   Either you are shooting too high, and are not realistic, so you need to manage your expectations better, OR you need to build substance.   Get what you need to have the deep substance that will make you the right hire. What can you do to make yourself more hireable?

Learning To Ask For More

Learning To Ask For More It can be hard to know if it’s time to ask for a raise and, once you establish it is, it’s even harder to do the actual asking. But if you’ve taken on more responsibility and turned out superstar results for the company â€" or if you’ve discovered your pay is below market average â€" it’s time to negotiate. Talking to the boss is often nerve-wracking, and when money enters the conversation, it gets even more difficult. It would be wonderful if all your hard work was duly noted and acknowledged with a nice bump to your paycheck. Unfortunately, that’s just not how business works. People who get paid what they believe they deserve usually asked for what they want. Asking for a raise doesn’t have to feel like torture. Careful preparation and a healthy dose of confidence will help you successfully negotiate for fair compensation. Make sure you’re ready to dazzle with these smart salary negotiation strategies. Know Your Value Understanding your value in the marketplace is the first step to a successful discussion about compensation. Identify what people in similar positions at similar companies are earning. Facts help keep emotions out of it and give you solid ground to stand on. You also need to lay out your accomplishments and contributions to the company. Tie your results to dollars whenever you can by pointing out how much money you’ve made for the company, or amounts you’ve saved. If you can show that you increased annual revenue by $75,000, it’s easier for higher-ups to see that a raise makes sense. Write It Down You don’t want to wing it when it comes to asking for a raise. It may seem like overkill, but writing out your entire case helps you construct a solid argument that you can deliver with confidence. Use your “script” to list specific accomplishments, cite research about salary trends in your field, and eliminate any distracting information. A bonus side effect of writing out your contributions is extra confidence. When you see everything you’ve brought to the table, it’s very affirming. Study that list and own it. It’s uncomfortable to feel proud of our accomplishments, but it’s okay to recognize your strengths. Noting your successes isn’t bragging; it’s just pointing out the truth. Keep It Professional It’s tempting to include information about all the extra hours you’ve put in or recent financial strains you’re experiencing, but those tidbits distract from the real issue. You want a raise because you’ve earned it and your experience, education, and title show you deserve it. Don’t muddy the waters by including personal information that detracts from your professional impact. Practice Practice is the best way to feel prepared and quiet most of those butterflies. Some amount of nerves can help keep you sharp, but you don’t want to be overwhelmed with anxiety when you’re selling your work as a strong, vital asset worth extra money. Role-play with a trusted friend or mentor. Find someone who has been in this position themselves, preferably someone who is usually on the other end of the asking, and get their advice. Feedback and encouragement from another professional will go a long way toward improving your confidence and polishing your presentation. Get Creative Depending on the financial status of your organization, a raise simply may not be possible. In those cases, it can help to identify another way you can contribute and earn more. If you can help fill in a gap that saves the company the cost of hiring, training, and paying another employee, it might make it worth their while to bump your salary. Be careful when making this kind of proposal, though. Make sure you are capable of taking on the extra work, and only ask for something you’d actually enjoy doing. This is a great way to add new experience to your resume that will only make you more valuable moving forward. Stay Positive Asking for a raise is scary, and it can feel like the world will end if you don’t get the answer you want. But thinking about it as though you have nothing to lose can be helpful. Ultimately, the worst thing that can happen is not getting the raise. But, if you think about it, you already don’t have a raise, so there’s nothing at risk. Minimizing the significance of the outcome will help you keep your nerves in check and your spirits bolstered, regardless of how things turn out. Even if you don’t get the answer you hoped for, you certainly gained points for asking. By coming in prepared, poised, and confident, you showed your employer that you’re willing to go after what you want. Plus, you planted a seed that may yield fruit sooner than you think. Keep Your Options Open If you get turned down, it might be time to start looking at other options. Why weren’t you able to get a raise at this time? Is the company struggling or are they undervaluing your contribution? You don’t have to stay where you are, especially if it feels like more career doors are closed than open. Everyone wants to get paid what they’re worth, but it’s often up to us to level the playing field. Make a strong impression by doing your homework, identifying your value, and showing up prepared. It might feel intimidating at first, but by employing these simple strategies, you’ll be ready to wow the boss and get the paycheck you deserve.

7 steps to finding and keeping a mentor

7 steps to finding and keeping a mentor Those who have mentors are twice as likely to be promoted as those who dont, says Ellen Fagenson Eland, professor at George Mason University and 2003 Winner of the Mentoring Best Practices Award. So start taking the mentoring process very seriously it should be a cornerstone of your overall career strategy. Heres a plan to get you started: Step 1: Identify a potential mentor. This person can be any age, but the most effective mentor is someone approximately five years ahead of you in your career. A person at this level will know how to navigate your organization at the spot youre in, and the person will remember what it is like to be where you are. This person should be someone you admire and someone who has good communication skills. Step 2: Have good questions. Would-be mentors are most receptive to people who ask good questions. What makes a good question? It should reveal that you are both directed and driven. But the question should also demonstrate that you understand the mentors expertise and you can use it well. So, a question like, What should I do with my life? would be out. Step 3: Dont expect miracles. A mentor is not going to rescue your whole career, even if she can. People want to mentor a rising star, so look like youre on track when you ask for help. Ask, What skills should I develop to earn an education policy analyst job with a Senator? rather than, Can you get me a job with a Senator? even if the mentor is Caroline Kennedy. Step 4: Be a good listener. This person is not your therapist. You ask a question, and then listen. If the mentor needs to know more, hell ask. Do not tell your life story. It is not interesting. If it were, youd be writing a book or doing standup, right? If you find yourself talking more than the mentor, then get a therapist before you scare your mentor away. Step 5: Prove youre serious. You can demonstrate that youre hungry for counsel by implementing the advice your mentor gave, showing the result, and then going back for more. So, if your mentor suggests you get on project X, get yourself there, do a good job, and report back to your mentor that you are grateful for the advice because you were able to learn a lot and shine. Your mentor will be much more willing to give you her time and energy after youve proven yourself to be a quick and eager study. Step 6: Always be on the lookout. One is not enough. Each person needs a few mentors, because no mentor lasts forever, and each has a different expertise. Two of my best mentors were very different from each other. One helped me to fit in with the guys so that I could succeed at a company where I was the only woman in management. Another mentor helped me to keep my sanity and my focus when balancing work and children seemed totally impossible. Step 7: Give back. The best way to learn how to rope in a mentor is to be a mentor yourself. Youll find out first hand what makes a protégée annoying, which will, in turn, make you a less annoying protégée. You’ll also discover why helping someone else grow is so rewarding, which will give you the courage to ask people to help you.

Been rejected What now

Been rejected What now “We regret to inform you that you have been unsuccessful on this occasion” Noooooooo! I know it can feel like it in that moment but this is not the end of the world. Recruitment with the top graduate employers is really competitive, sometimes with 100s of applications per position on offer. Do not take it personally, many other brilliant candidates may also have been rejected. There are only so many places available but just because you were not picked this time does not mean that you will not be next time. Because hiring decisions are generally subjective (despite best efforts), it is possible that another recruiter might have chosen you. Whilst this may not seem helpful, there are some things that you may want to think about just in case: Think, did you really want that job? Were you really motivated to go through the recruitment process? Had you made the extra effort to research and understand what the role was and who the company was that you were applying for? On paper you can look like the best candidate with lots of skills and experience, however if you cannot explain or show that you actually want the job for any reason other than you thought you should or everybody else on your course was applying to it. It may be worth reflecting on your career aims to make sure that you are putting your effort into the right things. Of course this may have been your dream job and you had done all the research and put in the all the effort required but….. Were you really suited to the role? Sometime we may have applied and thought that we wanted the role, but were you really suited to the role? Sometimes rejection can be a blessing in disguise, recognising that maybe your skills or attributes may be better suited to a different company with more shared values. Or even a different type of role that is better suited to your skill sets and preferred ways of working. With the increased use of Strengths based recruitment and gamification in psychometric testing, more and more recruiters are looking at not just can you do the job but would you actually like doing the job. Organisations such as PwC have even added a screening tool to suggest which type of role you maybe best suited to (whilst this does not stop you from applying for other things, it may be worth stopping and thinking about it for a second). Reflecting not just on your skills but also your strengths and preferred ways of working can help you consider the role and organisations that may be a good fit for you. However, you may have really wanted the job and been a good fit for it so what went wrong? Learn from the experience and seek feedback Resilience is something that employers seek and something that can definitely be applied to the recruitment process. See each setback as a challenge to grow both your self-awareness and your ability to bounce back. Dealing with disappointment can increase your chances of landing the right role next time. So make a point of staying positive and constructive, do all you can to learn from the experience and prepare for future opportunities. Getting turned down for a job happens to everyone, the important thing to learn from the experience. If you are receiving multiple rejections, think in general what stage are you getting through to? This can give some indication of where to start looking for areas to improve. Do not be afraid to seek feedback (but do check if they have explicitly said that they do not give it). After all what have you got to lose? If the employer cannot or will not provide it at least you will be noted as someone who was interested in their personal development. You never know when another opportunity with that recruiter may turn up. If they do provide the feedback then you can work with this to understand what you may have been able to do differently or indeed understand more why this may not have been the right opportunity for you. But don’t get defensive if you hear something you disagree with from your feedback.   Thank the interviewer for their time, make note of their comments and reflect on these later. Recognise that this was the recruiter’s perception and whilst they may not have been right in your mind, it is maybe worth testing some of these with people that you trust to consider how you could mitigate such perceptions in the future. By acting in a professional manner and not burning any bridges, you will have positioned yourself for another possible opportunity within the company in the future. Seek help You may have identified some areas where you could improve, Student Opportunity (Careers)  have workshops covering a range of topics to help you through the recruitment process. You can have your CV/Cover letter/Application form reviewed, prepare with a mock interview or book on to an assessment centre workshop. The recruitment process can be quite pressured and stressful especially as you try to balance this with your studies and rejections can further impact your sense of well-being. Be assured that you can also be supported with this too through the Wellbeing team, whether this is for ways to relax and unwind through to more in-depth services. Moving forward positively and building towards success Sometimes it is just not happening for you in your ideal area and it can feel like all the opportunities have gone. Do not get disheartened there are always other ways of progressing such as getting a less popular job in a similar area A job that calls upon the same skills you’ll need for your dream role, might be the answer to equip you with the experience and the skills you need to for your dream job down the line. As long as you are taking stepping stones towards your goals you are moving forward. Most of all Good luck!

5 Ways to Get into the Travel Industry CareerMetis.com

5 Ways to Get into the Travel Industry â€" CareerMetis.com Photo Credit â€" Pexels.comThe travel industry is ever evolving. Traditional travel agents/agencies have diminished in popularity during the digital ageâ€"Booking.com recently reported that 80% of travelers prefer to self-serve when booking travel. This doesn’t equate to an overall decline in the tourism industry; it merely means it’s adapting to meet the growing needs of the traveler/consumer.Recent statistics bode well for those searching for a career in the tourism sector. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics as of July 2018, there are 16 million US jobs in the Leisure and Hospitality sector. While in Australia, a much smaller country, but a popular tourist destination, the tourism industry contributed $49.7 billion to the GDP in 2017 with more than 900,000 jobs.If you’re looking to break into the exciting field of travel and tourism, consider the following strategies.1. Experience Personal TravelevalevalPast travel experiences alone won’t land you a job in the trav el industry, but it will serve as a solid foundation for your tourism career. Whatever career stage you’re in, if travel is within your means, take advantage of the opportunity, especially if you’re in college and can study abroad.Traveling will give you invaluable insight into new cultures, not to mention experience in navigating the tourism/hospitality industry in different locations.However, traveling is just the first step to acquiring a job in the industry. You’ll need to research your direction and build marketable skills to get hired.Recruiter.com advises, “the skill in travel is not explaining what the Taj Mahal looks like. We all know what the Taj Mahal looks like, and we all know why we want to go to India. Crucially, we are not selling India; we are selling the best way of doing India.”2. Start as a Host or Guide in Your Current City This opportunity is a low-pressure way to gain experience in the tourism industry. You’ll work with travelers, understanding the ir perspective and needs while developing communication and leadership skills.You can also work hosting around your schedule so that you can have a full-time job or go to school as well. However, it’s not all fun and games. You will need a little ingenuity to develop experience and hard work to make it a success!3. Learn How to be Customer-Service Oriented The travel industry has many different career paths â€" marketing, accounting, finance, HR, to name a few. Since the hospitality and leisure industry relies on the travelers, who support it when starting there’s a strong possibility you’ll be in a customer-facing role.Therefore, your customer service skills need to be on point. Tourism professionals must possess A+ people skills, empathy, understanding, and patience.evalReal customer service is seeing a resurgence within travel industries. While customers have no problem booking their travel, when they do need customer service, digital phone trees have caused increased frust ration.Consumer advocate, Christopher Elliott, told Forbes that when it comes to customer service, airlines and hotels are ‘bottom-feeders’ with relatively low customer service index levels. However, we’re poised for a change, as consumers crave better customer service and an actual human voice on the other line.A fact that Travel Market Report corroborated, saying social media will fill the communication gap, 43 percent of airlines say their 2018 social media strategies will focus on improving customer service. Also, 44 percent of airlines say they are shifting financial resources from traditional call center operations to social media.All this data points to an increase in customer-service based roles in the travel industry, so if you have a reliable service foundation, you’ll be ahead of the curve.4. Pursue a Hospitality Degree A degree is the most traditional route to break into a specific industry. If you’re choosing your educational path with a career in tourism as t he goal, many universities offer both bachelor and masters programs in hospitality, leisure, or tourism.A degree can also put you on a fast track to management-level positions, as opposed to starting in entry-level roles to build experience and work your way up in the industry. University programs will often help set up internship or apprenticeships, not to mention put you in contact with a network of organizations for the post-graduation job hunt.eval5. Specialize in a Career Path Specifically, if you have an interest, background, or skills in IT, development, or programming. With automation, AI, and digital services changing all industries, if you build yourself as a professional (or expert) in a specific role, you can then apply for those positions at travel-related organizations.Ready to work in travel? If you love the idea of working in the travel industry, there are many ways to land a job: travel yourself, start small as a host, build your customer service skills, get a degre e, or specialize in an up-and-coming field.Most importantly, you’ll need to put in the proper amount of time to research your career path. Don’t be afraid to start in an entry-level role and work your way up.
