by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Dec, 2009
Recently I was scanning through the resumes listed on craigslist and noticed something very surprising. Most of the listings weren’t resumes at all.

  Seven Tips for Surviving A Layoff
by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Dec, 2009
1. Ask for more projects.

by Barbara Safani - Dec, 2009
I recently attended a workshop on story telling facilitated by a company called Narativ. During the workshop, I learned how to tell a better story and be a better listener. One of the most memorable exercises of the day was when each person in the group was asked to tell a story about one of their grandparents, told through the voice of that grandparent. It was somewhat challenging at first...having to piece together memori...
