Getting an Entry Level Job Out of College
College graduates graduate from school and have the desire to pursue a career that they want. However, if you are looking for a job seriously, you need to try hard. Learn why it is difficult to find a job after graduation. In addition, let's look at the general mistakes of recent graduates, and find hints to keep motivation in low morale. Graduates looking for work should remember that they are in a better position than those who have not earned their degree. The Bureau of Labor Statistics, for example, reported in January 2017 that the unemployment rate among high school graduates is 5.3 percent.

The Importance of Being Your Best Self at Work
Stimulate your enthusiasm. Creating a comfortable working environment helps employees feel more comfortable. An active work environment also helps promote social interaction and active communication among colleagues. Employers can stimulate enthusiasm by encouraging gratitude, laughing, and using positive information. Use health challenges to improve employees’ health and wellbeing. Rather than just focusing on health issues at the individual level, we begin to create team health issues. For example, the Team Walk Challenge, challenges colleagues to come together and compete as a team, taking more steps per month than other teams. The Daily Walking Club is another great idea that can also be used to promote professional connections.

One Paycheck Away from Disaster

I was lucky that the company was found to have not given me sufficient training and was thus awarded unemployment insurance in the amount of $430/week, for a year. In my previous job, I'd been earning $41,000/ year, living in an apartment with a rent of $950/month I had $16,000 in savings. In addition, that year, I got a tax refund of about $3,000. I moved back in with my Mom who charged me $400/month in rent.
