An "A" player needs an "A" coach...

The career-coaching industry has been growing steadily for years now and attracting people with a wide range of backgrounds. By some estimates, there are more than 15,000 coaches in the U.S. Extensive training has become more widespread, but some in the industry complain that some certifications are easy to get and difficult for clients to evaluate.

Tricks of the Trade

For every occupation, there is a catalog of secrets only its employees are aware of—such as how waiters with heavy platters know to look straight ahead, and never down. READ: Tricks of the Trade

Who invented the cubicle?

Yes, Bob Propst knows who Dilbert is. How could he not? As the man credited with inventing office cubicles, he's been asked often enough. Ah, Dilbert, the comic strip based on the miserable, pathetic minion with slim chances of promotion, suffering in his tiny cubicle amid a sea of tiny cubicles. Millions of office workers tape the strip to the walls of their own tiny cubicles (six by eight feet, if they're lucky), provided their companies allow such testaments to individuality.

Propst has created a monster. The modern American office he envisioned as a place where productivity, if not happiness, would thrive has become exactly the kind of environment loathed by those who wear suits and collect regular paychecks. But Propst wants to make one thing perfectly clear: He does not accept the blame for the nightmare that his grand idea has evolved into.

"I don't even feel faintly guilty about Dilbert," Propst says from his suburban home near Redmond, Washington. "The things expressed in that comic are the very things we were trying to relieve and move beyond. It was a Dilbert world even back then. Everything we worked toward tries to express something more interesting."

Its all about perception people...

Start searching those .org Web sites. A new study released by the American Marketing Association finds that 79 percent of hiring managers think that candidates that belong to a professional organization have higher quality skills than those who do not. The A.M.A. polled 1,300 hiring managers and recruiters in advance of announcing a new online job site for advertising and marketing professionals. The new site is an alliance between the A.M.A, Public Relations Society of America, the American Advertising Federation and several other associations.

What's in a name? (Part 2)

For some a unique name has been an asset. For stars like Oprah Winfrey or Shaquille O'Neal or Denzel Washington, a distinctive first name can become a unique, identifiable brand, almost a trademark. But some ordinary folks say being different is just too difficult. Tiqua Gator says people just can't seem to get her name right. But she says her real burden runs even deeper. She's concerned about getting a better job, and sees her name as a potential handicap. READ: Can a 'Black' Name Affect Job Prospects?

What's in a name? (part 1)

Why Women Need to Save More Than Men

"Men and women may not be on equal footing when it comes to investing for the future. On average, women work fewer years and earn less than men, but they also tend to live longer. Therefore, women must focus on the concerns that are unique to them when planning for retirement... "

Sweet revenge for IT jobseekers...

Outsource your job to get a new one! This is the new mantra doing the rounds in the US IT sector. Programmers are outsourcing their software modules to cheap and efficient labour in India. This way they get the best of both worlds- more money and more time. They earn doubly - one from the outsourced job, other from the new job they undertake. According to this concept the techie is able to give himself a promotion outsourcing the specific modules to one or more Indian techies . While he takes the charge as a overall project manager. You can utilise the time in updating yourself to new technologies as well as learning a different domain thereby enhancing your market value considerably .

Says a programmer on Slashdot.org who outsourced his job: "About a year ago I hired a developer in India to do my job. I pay him $12,000 out of the $67,000 I get. He's happy to have the work. I'm happy that I have to work only 90 minutes a day just supervising the code. My employer thinks I'm telecommuting. Now I'm considering getting a second job and doing the same thing."

Charley is no angel...

The number of new people signing up for jobless benefits rose last week, reflecting the impact of hurricane Charley, which recently tore through Florida. The Labor Department reported Thursday that new applications for unemployment insurance increased by a seasonally adjusted 10,000 to 343,000 for the week ending Aug. 21. Half of the 10,000 rise was attributed to claims stemming from the hurricane, a Labor Department analyst said. READ: Jobless claimup on impact of Charley and count your blessings.

Things they don't tell you in the relocation brochures.

"An analysis of death records has bestowed an unwanted distinction on the state of Florida: Deadliest state to work in. 354 work-related deaths were reported in 2002, ranking behind California and Texas. But numbers reported by the Palm Beach Post indicate that the death rate of 4.4 percent per 100,000 workers was higher than the 3.8 registered in Texas and 2.8 in California. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration has been taking a hard look at those figures. Most of the fatalities occurred in the construction and agriculture industries, and OSHA can fine employers up to $70,000 per violation if investigators find sub-standard working conditions."

Job Hunting With a Disability Can Be Tough

If you've ever been unemployed, you know how frustrating job hunting can be. This is especially true when you've got years of experience under your belt. But if you have a disability, the search can be even harder. This is one man's story.

Rent doesn't get cheaper when you are out of work

"In these 60 small towns, medium-sized cities and larger metro regions, you can live well and your dollar will go far. Of course, the "live well" half our claim is shot through with subjectivity. It will be highly dependent on who you are, and what you want out of life. There are plenty of folks who will steadfastly refuse to suffer even one more day of subfreezing temperatures--period, end of story. Others may be bored to the point of madness by living in a small town. They crave big-city stimulation. Their hope is to find such a lifestyle devoid of Manhattan-like expenses and pressures. Our hope is that this special report will help you find the where of your happiness." Read: 60 cheap places to live

Do degrees really matter? (Part 2)

The science and engineering (S&E) workforce of the United States depends heavily on graduates with at least a four-year college education. However, individuals employed in S&E occupations with less than a bachelor's degree account for more than one-fifth of those employed in S&E occupations.

These S&E workers, more than 1 million people, hold high school diplomas (5 percent of the S&E workforce) or associate's degrees (17 percent). These data, from the April 2003 ''Current Population Survey,'' are available in a new report issued by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Science Resources Statistics.

Less Education = Less Money

Want a job? Stay in school. Want a well-paying job? Earn a college degree. Nothing new in that statement: A good education has always opened doors in this country. So have hard work and a willingness to learn. Indeed, generations of Americans have been guided by one principle: Sweat and pay your dues, and you will get ahead. Today, that assumption is crumbling.

A salary calculator for the "real" world...

There are many American employees who feel they are paid less than they are worth. How do they know this? They often don't. Their feelings are usually based on what others who work around them are being paid or what their friends are paid at other employers. Because they believe they are underpaid, many do not perform as well as they could. Of course, that is a big mistake because annual reviews are based on performance.

Lifestyles of the laid-off and unknown...

Over the course of a week, non-workers spend about a quarter of their "workday" on "household chores," that is, cleaning and repairs. The lion's share of their day is devoted to recreation, specifically watching TV, socializing with friends, and playing sports and games. Nonworkers sleep nearly 45 minutes more a night than employed workers. Worthy of note: Both groups -- employed and non-employed -- spend relatively scant time on child care. Predictable, huh? Taking care of the kids still today is considered women's work by most men. By contrast, nonworking women spend half their "workday" engaged in household work and child care.Click here for more information.

Boeing Co. is hanging banners and hiring sky-typing teams to help get out the word: It's hiring.

While employment at Boeing has fallen from 239,000 in 1997 to 157,000 last year, mostly because of layoffs at its commercial-aircraft unit, the company currently has 11,000 job openings companywide. That compares with about 3,000 to 4,000 openings in each of the past two years. Read: Now hiring...

How to deduct job searching expenses from your taxes

Uncle Sam is on your side when it comes to job-search expenses. After all, you're worth more in taxes when you're gainfully employed. To prove his interest, you may be able to deduct some of your expenses if you're job hunting. The qualifier is that you must be seeking a job in the same occupation you've been in. If you're looking for a job in a different occupation, these deductions don't apply. You don't have to be unemployed to take them.

Are American workers spolied? Some people think so...

Steve Hurley says that he hires the same crew of Jamaicans for his Cape Cod inn each year because they work harder, and Americans don't want his low-wage jobs anyway.

"We hired college students, and they'd come in drunk, or they wouldn't show up," said Hurley, 42, who runs the Hyannis Holiday Motel with his 77-year-old father. "Every week it was something. They would find a waitressing job and run off for a few extra cents, or cleaning wasn't their forte, or they would stay, but come Labor Day, they were gone."

Despite relatively high unemployment, Hurley and other firms on the Cape and Islands are backing legislation that would increase the number of unskilled foreign workers allowed in the country. Read: I don't do windows.
