How Personal Branding Online Can Help Your Job Search
Every day, you see brands, you wear brands, you use brands, and you eat and drink brands. Business branding is everywhere. You are also a brand. Personal branding is especially useful when you’re job hunting or promoting yourself for other reasons. It’s up to you to craft your personal brand so that it conveys what you want it to convey. What is a personal brand? Your personal brand is the combination of factors that create an impression of you in the minds of other people. It’s your values, strengths, personality, passions, and all the other characteristics that people see in you. You don’t need a logo, and your resume is only a part of your personal brand. You are a complete package. When you develop your personal brand, you shape it to help your best qualities stand out. You can shape it differently for different purposes to show employers and others who you are. How a personal brand can help you How many times have you had what you thought was a successful job interview, knowing that you were fully qualified for the job – and you didn’t get it? It used to be that a good resume and a suitable personality were all you needed to get the job you wanted. These days, employers look further. When they research applicants online, they may find LinkedIn profiles, Facebook profiles, articles that you wrote, questionable photos, snide remarks on Twitter that you posted, and so on. In fact, almost 80 percent of recruiters are required to look into your online reputation to see if there are any red flags. Your personal brand helps you set yourself apart from others. Chances are that your competitors have already built their personal brands, making it easier for hiring managers to make decisions about them. One of them may have been hired for your dream job. A well-developed personal brand can also help you with these endeavors: Getting job promotions Having recruiters notice you Receiving recognition in your field Developing industry connections Attracting clients Strengthening your desirable qualities Reaching your goals more easily How to develop a personal brand First, identify the elements of your personal brand. You are a brand product, and you need to know how to describe it. You need to know what skills, strengths, talents, and experience you offer, what accomplishments show what you can do for others, and what are your core values and passions are. You need to be able to explain your goals and decide what you want to people to recognize you for. The answers to those questions form the unique package that is you. Once you’ve identified these traits, you need to package and publish them. There’s a bunch of different ways to go about this. LinkedIn is a key part of your personal brand. Prospective employers and clients will look for you and expect to see you there. Spend time writing a profile that shows off your personal brand. Review and update it regularly. Take part in LinkedIn discussions. Quality contributions will make people notice you and view your LinkedIn profile. Create profiles and take part in other social media platforms as well. Keep personal posts private so that professional connections see only posts that contribute to your personal brand. Applicants who have a personal website are more likely to be hired than those who don’t have one. Use your website to draw attention to your accomplishments, and keep it updated. If you write well, consider having a blog. A blog with industry-relevant articles can go a long way to building your credibility and attracting job offers. How to use your personal brand Now it’s time to create a resume that highlights the characteristics that form your personal brand. Use it to help employers understand your unique qualities that are relevant to their needs. Today’s resumes are more than lists of past jobs and responsibilities. Start your resume with a personal statement that describes your brand and what you offer of value to employers. Have a bulleted list near the top of the first page with accomplishments that illustrate your proficiency. Hand in hand with resume writing is researching target employers. Read their job ads carefully, and shape each resume to underscore the aspects of your personal brand that can best meet their challenges. Research jobs not only on large aggregate sites but also on local job boards. If you live in New York, for example, search the ads for jobs in your field at New York Jobs. You can also post your resume online. Choose a version that will appeal to the majority of employers you’re targeting. Let recruiters and your personal contacts know that you’re looking for a new position. When they understand your personal brand, they’re better able to recognize potential job matches. Networking groups may also help you find the right connection. Continue to take part online, monitor your social media presence, and write in your blog if you have one. Hiring managers and recruiters could be searching for you online at any time. Continue to connect with more people online. Past colleagues and supervisors, college alumni, people in your networking groups, and other people in your field can be valuable connections. Help them when you can, and they’ll want to help you.

Topic Sentences and Thesis Statements: How do they differ?
For many writers, topic sentences are transition tools that help their readers to transition smoothly between paragraphs. These sentences state the primary ideas paragraphs carry. They are like another form of “mini theses” that give readers a direction regarding where you are taking them. At times, this similarity in roles makes it possible for some inexperienced writers to confuse the functions of these elements. However, many clear differences exist between topic sentences and thesis statements. That is why our writing help discussion will show you these differences. So, remain with this post up to the end to learn more. Thesis statements play different roles Ideally, thesis statements are primary or controlling ideas that show your stand on the topic you are discussing. They set the stage ready to announce specific and narrowed perspective on a topic. Additionally, these statements appear once at the end of opening paragraphs for a shorter paper or at the end of the second or third paragraphs if your papers have longer introductory chapters. However, it is necessary to note that your thesis statement only appears once in the paper while it is necessary to have a topic sentence for each paragraph as you progress with the defense of your essay. Lastly, these statements set the general scope of writing projects and they point your readers to what lies ahead in your paper’s discussions. Topic Sentences We have already looked at the essence, meaning, as well as the primary functions of these statements in your writing assignments. As this section unfolds, we shall shift our attention to the details of topic sentences because they are the primary elements of our discussion. Read also: Have Assignment Problem? Try Assignment Help Online The positioning of topic sentences Unlike thesis statements, topic sentences appear at the start of your paper’s paragraphs so that they can point the readers to what you intend to discuss. However, we have a few cases of exception where you may need to incorporate them after the first sentences. For example, if your paragraphs’ introductions require some background information, you may not use the topic sentences at the start of such paragraphs. Creating connections to the thesis statements Another feature of topic sentences is that they use keywords and phrases in thesis statements to tell the reader those parts of the thesis statements the paragraphs will discuss. Creating links to preceding paragraphs Unlike thesis statements whose primary goal is to point readers to what is coming, topic sentences serve two purposes. They connect the reader to preceding paragraphs while guiding them to what you intend to discuss in the current paragraphs. They create a progressive flow of thoughts Topic sentences help in the systematic flow of your assignments. Unlike thesis statements, these sentences use transitory words such as “moreover, similarly, in addition, first, and lastly.” They play supportive a role Another feature that differentiates hypotheses and topic sentences is that these sentences are supportive tools that uphold the validity of your thesis statements. However, the supportive role they play does not mean they are less important because without them, your audience will not see your thesis statements’ validity since it will be wanting due to lack of evidence to support your hypotheses. The symbiotic relationship that connects these two elements is similar to the one that exists between the egg and chicken. But without thesis statements, there is no need for the very existence of topic sentences. Inversely, thesis statement can exist without a topic sentence even though they will remain barren statements without proof and life. They are general in nature In addition, topic sentences are general in nature. They are general declarations that are followed by other sentences that give more information on the initial declaration. On the other hand, thesis statements are narrowed elements that need the support of similar arguments to prove their validity. Moreover, they stand on the validity of proof and evidence while topic statements require additional materials to serve their purpose. They serve an organizational purpose The last main difference between thesis statements and topic sentences is that they serve as organizational tools. They help you to organize your ideas so that your readers can understand your message better. On the other hand, thesis statements serve as overall roadmaps that require intensive debate to defend their validity. Even though thesis statements share a few similarities, we still have many significant differences that separate them. For instance, these two components are different in their essence and function. In addition, the positioning of topic sentences differs with the thesis statements appearing at the end of your introductions while your topic statements appear at the beginnings of each of your paragraphs. Knowing the fundamental differences in the nature and function of these two elements will help you to know how you can use them appropriately.

How to Travel with a Suit like a Pro
Traveling with a suit is often essential, and is even more often easier said than done. Whether you’re traveling for an important meeting, a wedding, or any other occasion that requires you to look your best, it’s important to stay at the top of your game. From basic packing tips to choosing the best travel bags and leather briefcases for men, here are a few key guidelines to help keep you and your wardrobe men pointer and ponder while traveling, wherever you’re off to. 1. Take your garment bag game to the next level Most men have had at least one experience of traveling with a garment bag, and this experience is not always positive. Traditional garment bags are often thin, flimsy, and too often susceptible to creasing or folding, especially when stowed with other items. This is a major risk when traveling on commercial airlines, where suits and other hanging items can often get crushed in communal compartments. (Bottom line: a flight attendant will never care about your suit as much as you do.) Read also: Fur Handbags Still In Style? DIY: How To Clean A Leather Handbag The contemporary traveler will do well to opt for a suit garment bag that takes the size, shape, and configuration of a simple briefcase. A well-made garment bag of this style keeps suits, slacks, and shirts smoothly positioned and terrifically compact. An added bonus is being able to stow your suit on your own terms, and these types of bags tend to fit handily into overhead storage compartments. Your best bet is a variation in a sturdy, durable material like Italian leather, but be sure to confirm that the piece is well made and from a trusted brand. (TIP: Make sure that your garment bag is lined with high quality, neutral fabric like 100% cotton or denim. This will keep clothes smelling fresh and protected from outside scents during travel.) 2. Don’t forget the accessories When traveling with a suit, it’s typical to pack a few accessories as well. Whatever luggage you choose to transport your suit, opt for a piece that has secure, easy to use compartments for cufflinks, a carefully rolled tie or a pocket square, a pressed shirt or two to be hung with the suit itself, and ideally enough space for a pair of dress shoes. (TIP: Save space by rolling socks into one of your shoes.) 3. Plan your course of action Most journeys involve multiple modes of transportation (car, plane, taxi, etc.), and your cargo should be able to effortlessly survive them all. Map out your journey from start to finish, and have a plan for how and where your suit will be stored along the way. Opt for best carry-on luggage options that not only protect your suit but are also easy to carry. For day-of events, you may even choose to wear your suit on the plane, though this can be uncomfortable, and a consolidated, briefcase-style garment bag with a comfortable shoulder strap is still likely to be your best bet. (TIP: Take the guesswork out of the various legs of your journey by contacting your airline in advance, opting for a car service rather than a cab, and making sure that your bag fits the dimensions of a carry-on.) For those that don't want to wear their suits on the route, try booking your flight with an airport near your hotel so when you land, you are minutes away from your final lodging destination. With Hyatt hotels, you are always within a few miles of the city's major airport, meaning you can either walk to your hotel or enjoy a quick complimentary shuttle ride, speeding up the travel process and getting you where you need to be in the least amount of time. Ultimately, there are a few things in life for which skimping are simply not an option. A terrific suit is one of those things, and the luggage you use to keep your suit in top form is another. Treat your suit right, and you’ll arrive at your destination ready to look - and feel - at the absolute top of your game.

Tips to Lower Your Insurance Costs
Investing in life insurance can be an intimidating thought. It is safe to say that the younger and healthier you are, the lower your insurance costs will be. This is because a healthy person has a lower risk of dying as compared to a person with an unhealthy lifestyle. Hence, if you are thinking about life insurance here are a few tips that could help lower the cost of your insurance. Stop Smoking A smoker has to pay a much insurance premium as compared to a non-smoker of the same age. In some cases, this can be as high as triple the premium. So, if you smoke or use any other tobacco-based products, now is the time to quit. You will be considered a non-smoker after you have quit smoking for at least 3 to 5 years. Lose some Weight A number of health issues are caused by being overweight. Hence, insurance companies consider obese or heavy people a high risk and hence charge them a higher premium. Maintaining a healthy BMI can help you live a longer, healthier life by reducing your risk of heart diseases, blood pressure problems, etc. Schedule an Early Physical A thorough medical examination is one of the prerequisites of most life insurance policies. Try and schedule this exam in the early part of the day or on a day when you are relaxed and well-rested. This is because studies show that testing for blood pressure, cholesterol, etc. have lower results in the morning as compared to in the latter half of the day after you have had a stressful day or eaten a heavy lunch. Fasting for 24 hours before your physical could also help lower your cholesterol count. Be Honest If you suffer from a preexisting condition it may be tempting to try and hide this information from your insurance agency. However, doing this could cause you a lot of trouble. In most cases, the insurance company will recognize your health condition during the review of your medical history and medical exam. Since you did not disclose this condition, you will then not have an opportunity to explain the situation. Drive Carefully Along with your health records, an insurance agent might also ask for your driving record. While this may seem unconnected, it is not. According to many insurance agencies, a driver who frequently breaks traffic rules is likely to put himself or herself in a dangerous situation and hence is considered high risk. So, if you have more than the occasional ticket to your name, it may be wise to wait a few years before applying for insurance and drive more carefully in the meantime. Keep an Eye on Insurance rates Like everything else, insurance policy rates also change from time to time. Thus, even if you have already bought a life insurance policy, it is important to review and compare policies every few years. Affordable Life USA has great rates on life insurance. Along with comparing quotes, you should also update your policy from time to time to reflect the changes in your personal situation.

Why The Best Time To Relax Is When You Don’t Have Time For It
How many times have you been out and about all day wrapping up some mundane but important tasks? Imagine visiting the bank to resolve some issue the phone-based customer service could not handle and suddenly you notice that blinking indicator which shows that your phone is dying. There are many places where a quick charge can be done, but for one reason or another, the charger was left at home. Most persons would experience a paroxysm of frustration and grief because the phone is needed to get the final bits of the day’s business done. In the same way that our devices will need a periodic charge to keep on going, our minds, bodies, and souls also need a time of rest, relaxation and most of all restoration to keep on overcoming the struggles of life. The Need to Relax The idea of the “olden days” back when life was simpler is a nostalgic notion where many will say yes, we need to go back there. Looking deeply into those days will show the reader that our ancestors were just as busy as we are today. Many had jobs to attend to for six or seven days a week, others had businesses to run and some had a field with animals to tend to. In the 1800s for example, the standard work week was seventy hours long. The “provincial” lifestyle required an early rise to maximize the sunlight and hard work with long hours throughout the day. In the same way, our modern lives are hectic, busy and fraught with troubles. Constantly dealing with problems will make a person weary and tired, hence God instituting a day for rest and worship. Being too busy has a silent and hidden debilitating effect on a person’s outlook on life. If you are constantly busy, tired and just going, when do you get a chance to reflect on yourself? If your mind is always occupied with other concerns, when do you reflect your actions, your state of mind, and most importantly how do you prepare yourself from attacks of the enemy? Learn to Refuse Some Tasks The constant barrage of issues and tasks will cause a person to forget what being fully charged and connected feels like. Always having something pressing at work, always having to help family and friends and then having to face yourself if you fail can be a bit much. Remember we are all human; we are to maximize our talents and serve our fellow man, but in the end, too much service without the Lord will cause us to fail. In Matthew God gave us an important instruction “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Becoming whole again begins with having restful sleep. The Lord gives His peace to those He loves. So anything preventing a great time while sleeping needs to be put before Him and removed from your life.
