Failing to create a job description. How can you hire the best person for the job if you haven’t defined what “the best” is? In addition to listing tasks and responsibilities, job descriptions should spell out the mental and physical capacities, attitudes, personality traits, and skills that are key to success.

do not cheat the one-page resume rule by using a tiny font and tiny margins

Ask a Manager

SEPTEMBER 8, 2015

If you’re early in your career, you’ve probably heard that your resume should only be one page. And perhaps you’ve tried to wiggle your way around that rule by using a tiny font and non-existent margins so that you can cram more text into one page. If you’re done this, you’re violating the rule in spirit and probably making your resume less effective. Before I go any further, let me clearly note that if you’re at least midway into your career, the one-page resume rule doesn’t apply to you. You get a second page at that point. And line spaces are not your enemy. resumes

Employees do just enough to get by…and it’s human nature. Leaders sit back and avoid conflict because….well…it’s well…it’s human nature.

The team I manage only has two other members. A few weeks ago, one of them, Jamie, got married. A few other colleagues and I were invited to the evening reception. The other member of the team got overly drunk and was abusive to many guests, knocked small children over on the dance floor, and was heard at the bar saying he was going to “F#%k s$¥t up.” Guests were trying to eject him, but he was throwing punches and fighting them.
