Nail Your Job Interview Intro—No More Awkwardness!

Job interviews make me NERVOUS 😅 but I've learned how to totally ace that dreaded "Tell me about yourself" moment! Here’s how I keep it cool and confident: • I always review my resume & cover letter first—reminds me what I’ve already shared. • I check the job posting for key skills, then work those into my intro (so they know I’m a great fit!). • I ask myself: Who am I? Why THIS company? What do I bring to the table? What are my goals? • I write out my intro, keep it SHORT (3-5 sentences), and practice until it sounds natural—not robotic! • I even record myself (cringe, but SO helpful 🙈) and make a cheat sheet for last-minute nerves. When it’s go time: • I walk in with confidence, smile, and make eye contact. • I stick to my talking points—no rambling! • And if I mess up? I stay positive. I’m here for a reason ❤️ Let’s crush those intros and land that dream job! 🚀 #JobInterview #CareerTips #InterviewPrep #Education

Thyssenkrupp Shake-Up: Jobs on the Line?

Big news from Germany: Thyssenkrupp is shaking things up, and not in a good way for workers. The company’s new plan could put 20,000 jobs at risk as it splits up and sells parts of its business. If you work in steel or cars, this could mean layoffs or your job moving elsewhere. For everyday folks, it’s a reminder: even big, old companies aren’t safe from major changes. Always good to keep your resume fresh and an eye on the job market! #JobSecurity #CareerTips #BusinessNews #Business

Why Your Work BFFs Matter More Than Ideas

Here’s a money lifehack you won’t hear in business school: It’s not your genius idea or a fat bank account that makes or breaks a company—it’s the people you work with. Seriously, bad partnerships can tank a business faster than a bad product. If you wouldn’t want to be stuck in a group project with someone, don’t go into business with them. Want your next big thing to actually last? Build trust first, chase profits later. #CareerTips #WorkLife #StartupAdvice #Business

Why Middle Managers Are Disappearing

Heard about the "Great Flattening"? Companies like Walmart and Wayfair are trimming middle management to save cash as costs rise. It’s not just a tech thing anymore—retailers are in on it too. If you’re a mid-level manager, it might be time to brush up on your hands-on skills or consider a side hustle. The big shift: fewer bosses, more direct doers. For job seekers, expect more competition for entry-level and mid-tier roles as ex-managers join the hunt. #CareerTips #WorkTrends #Layoffs #Shopping
