]]> Comment on Positioning Yourself for Global Opportunities by Natalie Loopbaanadvies http://www.myglobalcareer.com/2010/03/05/positioning-yourself-for-global-opportunities/comment-page-1/#comment-40331 Natalie Loopbaanadvies Mon, 22 Nov 2010 15:11:22 +0000 http://www.myglobalcareer.com/archives/2008/04/01/positioning-yourself-for-global-opportunities/#comment-40331 I agree with a point you've made in this post. It's easier for younger people to be sent to other places, because they have less ties. But older people have difficulty of deciding whether or not to accept the job, even if it has a higher pay, because they do not want to leave their families behind. If you want to export an executive, be sure to know what to offer to him/her, like relocating his/her family with him/her, career assistance for the family members, etc. I agree with a point you’ve made in this post.

The story is very much like what happens in real life. Thank you for sharing this. Workers are replaced by people who have more experience than them or people are replaced by people who are more knowledgeable than them. This happens anywhere in the world. What people need to realize is that the economy today has become very competitive. If you don't want to lose your job, you should know what skills you need to learn and be sure that you are updated with the latest trends in your profession. Wow.

You brought up great points in your article. Not everyone can successfully manage the work-from-home gig. You have to stay motivated and stick to a logical schedule. I agree that it is important to do your part to stay in touch with your colleagues and remain a productive part of your team. Thanks for sharing your ideas on working from home! Hi Holly,

]]> Comment on Trial By Fire? No, A Bad Interview by vincianne.mifsud http://www.myglobalcareer.com/2009/07/20/trial-by-fire-no-a-bad-interview/comment-page-1/#comment-37861 vincianne.mifsud Mon, 04 Oct 2010 15:25:07 +0000 http://www.myglobalcareer.com/archives/2007/06/12/trial-by-fire-no-a-bad-interview/#comment-37861 Recently I had an interview to apply again for an interview. I am a a supply teacher within the civil service and now I had been working for two and a half years.The strange thing is that I filled the same application and did the same interview withholding the same requirements as two and a half years ago. This time the new chairman told me during the interview that things has changed and the big deal is that it had changed in one second and that I was not going to be chosen. Another officer a friend of the chairman told me yes that it had changed. A confrontation arose between me and the interviewers. I protested against this interview and I was granted this second interview and the company told me that it was biased.The new interview was promised to be going completely independent, but there was still the same officer, and so I did not pass this second interview? Can this interview be illegal? Since long ago I passed the first time with the same requisites. I think these interviewers t are not enough qualified to do these jobs as because they were teachers and not true interviewers.Because the questions what do you wear after school because kids may see you? closed ended questions also were asked like what are core comptences how do you teach year 6 or year 5 and I had never taught in these classes, and the thing was they always wanted an immediate response. I was really stressed during these interviews, because I had to respond with very choiced answers.Do you agree with these questions? Or they are a type of illegal questions to cut me out from the job? Another thing the chairman knew me and he never wanted me to have a career in teaching.

When I owned my advertising agency I used to tell my staff to not think in terms of "risk" but to think in terms of getting things done. The risk was always there, but then we could sharpen our focus. Excellent advice. When I owned my advertising
