Can somebody enlighten me as to why interviewers have to ask why you are looking for a new job? I mean it would be bad to list all the REAL reasons I want a new job so I always tend to fluff it up a bit by saying I'm looking for new challenges yadda yadda vs say I hate my coworkers, I hate my supervisor/manager, I hate the corporate culture etc. To me it seems obvious WHY I am looking for a new job as something must be wrong about my...

I don't have any experience with this program but a lady on the trains I take regularly is currently doing her diploma in career counselling through the second career program. I never asked her how long the process take but all her books, tuitions and transit pass are paid by the government.
If you need more information, why don't you contact the second career department (usually advising ...

If he was fired WITH CAUSE- then he should be thankful for whatever severance he has because the company does not have to pay anything if they have sufficient proof that a firing was warranted.
Are you sure the wasn't " laid off" or some other term that denotes a dismissal that is NOT a result of the employee's actions?

I had put my name into a general inventory for the feds. I got a call about and interview, but the woman left a note with a brother and did not leave her name or number. All my brother could tell me was that it was for "industry". Turns out it was for FINTRAC and the first question I get asked is "what can you tell us about the work we do?" I gave some BS answer.

If you could, please tell us about the process (interviews etc.)?
What is the pre-employment test?
What background are you coming from (in terms of previous employment)?
How long it took to get hired?
What is there to the job, other than carrying the mail?
Thanx

Benefit Negotiation Letter
Hi, I just got a job offer this afternoon, and have a question on how to negotiate for an extra week of vacation.
Basically, I am happy with the salary, the only problem is they are only giving me 2 weeks of vacation. I understand there's no over time for this job, because the salary is very ...

I think it looks not too bad, but some things I would change:
In the profile, change "degree holder" to "graduate."
In education, "Business Communications" should be plural and include your GPA if you have a good one. Also, the formatting looks a little funny. I would format it like:
Bachelor of Business Administration, Management Information Systems

The way I would sell it is list only your MBA GPA (it's the most relevant) and list your undergrad without GPA, and then go into work experience..
You've got the benefit of having solid work experience with the Big 4 and that should mean more than an undergrad you did several years ago.

HR's a pretty broad field. What sort of area are you looking at? Internal recruiting? External recruiting? Contract recruiting? Payroll? Benefits management?

I was unemployed as a recent grad until a few days ago. I've been off work for 3 months. The first month and a half was great. Lots of free time and all my friends were still around to hang out with. Now they're all busy with their schedules, lives and girlfriends.
I know how you feel about the feeling of depression. It's been hard for me to find things to do in the day. I look for things...
