Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
Re: Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
i suppose your correct but fuck employers. They aren't always honest as well. For years the employer had the leverage but that has changed. People don't wanna take shit jobs and be treated shitty. I personally don't see anything wrong w/ fudging resumes etc and agree- during the interview process is your time to shine and show your personality and if you can fit in to the company culture. I feel just as companies are interviewing us, we are interviewing themGMJS-CEO wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 8:49 pm It’s certainly disingenuous to pretend a spouse is an employer and to avoid at all costs sharing of that information.
It’s also poor form by employers to undervalue someone due to them being a stay at home parent. There’s some truth to the persons skills becoming stale but they wouldn’t have completely lost their abilities.
Here’s some professional ways to show your stay at home experience without the lies: https://thecareercounter.com/how-to-wri ... om-resume/
And also fuck the 2 week notice. That is outdated and not needed. If someone gets offered a better job and for whatever reason can't give 2 week notice so what. You may get a poor review? i just don't see the value -- esp if you need to take the position right away. In an ideal world, yes-- 2 week notice is the norm but don't let it be the end all be all.
when employers want to fire you or let you go, they tell you to leave right away- for the most part.

You can all relax - it was about 13 years ago and since then, I've come up with other ways to "close the gap" for women who have been stay at home mums.
I do a LOT of freebies for single mums, it's incredibly rewarding to see them get into jobs.
Have a lovely week everyone, sale is still on if you need a CV.

Voluntary work is a completely different issue, you wouldn’t want or need a Confidentiality Agreement for that. Not knocking what you did, but it is what it is, deception.rozzieoz wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 9:03 pmThe job certainly existed. She just wasn't paid a regular wage.
That's like saying voluntary work doesn't count, because the person isn't getting paid which is complete nonsense!
I use voluntary work all the time on CV in the work history because the validity of a job is not always measured by how much the person is getting paid.
Salary is NEVER mentioned on a CV, because what is important is the skills and tasks. Those were ABSOLUTELY not a lie.
Re: Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
You're absolutely wrong.
I've been writing CVs full time for more than fourteen years and in that time I've had clients who couldn't give a lot of details about voluntary work, research activities or even student practical work because of confidentiality agreements.

Re: Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
LOL, I personally don’t see it that way. As a matter of fact I know many people who did volunteer work for various reasons, help the needy, bolster job resumes, etc.rozzieoz wrote: ↑Mon Feb 20, 2023 7:46 amYou're absolutely wrong.

I thought you were going to let it go? I never said a disparaging thing about what you did personally except I thought it was deceptive. But if you truly want to get into it more I guess we can. Damn.
Re: Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
I was responding to your comment saying you don't need a confidentiality agreement for voluntary work.
I just wanted to let you know that your source was wrong and in some cases, you do need a confidentiality agreement.
I didn't personally attack you, I just told you your information is wrong.
We don't need to "get into" anything, I was merely correcting your misconception.
In most cases you're correct, it's great to have the details of voluntary work on a CV, but in SOME INSTANCES, candidates aren't allowed to give too many details because of confidentiality issued with them and the person / organisation they are volunteering for.
You can put away the knives, it was not a personal attack.

Some NGOs would have NDAs, not that weird. I’ve had them with most of my employers but I don’t work with NGOs, had them as clients in the past.
Didn’t impact job interviews much, you still spend hours talking about responsibilities without divulging the privileged information.

Re: Have you lost your job due to Corona Virus? Need a CV?
Exactly.
The focus should always be what you did and how you did and what awards you received for doing it.
In most cases, where you did it is not that important, especially for my clients - as most of them are moving overseas.
