Nowadays, people applying for job can feel like if
they were in a casting their rsum to the
nothing, while clicking apply online without any
face to face interaction nor immediate or no
feedback at all.

Stay Current
Maintain your online rsum updated, every time
you get a new course update it. So when the recruiters are looking for candidates they can take
your application into consideration.
Be careful with what you put in your social media
sites, since recruiters also check those sites.
Be Camera Ready
Some employers conduct an interview by webcam
in sites like Skype before meeting face to face. Or
they might send some questions and the applicant
will need to videotape himself with the answers
and send it to the recruiter.
Go Offline
Ramit Sethi, author of I Will Teach You to Be
Rich, says that its better to avoid the apply online completely. He also says that its better to
know the company and someone inside first, also
considering that most of the times that a person
applies online get no response.
A good advice is not to use only one method, you
dont need only to apply online. Try talking directly
to people youll might get surprise with a positive
answer.

the three main art
museums in Costa
Rica have women in
charge of making the
artwork dialogue with
the public.
They are Maria Jose
Chavarria, Maria Jose Monge and Adriana Collado.

common it's the fact

UCR

Rica) and a second
career (graphic design,
anthropology

6. The peaceful country that I used to know, it is fading away
every day faster.
7. Even finishing my career, I will never stop learning.
8. I have less patience for fake people.
9. I have realized how short and uncertain life is. So I try to
slap myself every day to enjoy each minute.

Poem
Deep Down
By Meize Mesen
Asphyxiated
No air
No lungs
Life without breathing
Impotence
Still like a rock
Ideas without talking
Ideas without moving
Strength without
muscles
Strength without acting
Asphyxiated
Anger without heavy
breathing
Fear in being
Being in fear
Asphyxiated resentment
For every little stupid
thing
Resentment
A whole heart but no
lungs
A whole brain but no
lungs
Beating without
breathing
Thinking without
heavy breathing
Feeling without being
With only mind words
Asphyxiated
