According to a survey of 2,000 people in the U.S. and the U.K., almost three-quarters of consumers use the same exact password for multiple accounts. What’s more, a large number of people haven’t changed that duplicate password in over five years.
Interviewers will be focused on finding out if you’re a right fit for the position, but it’s also important to decide if the company is a right fit for you. Have a list of questions ready to help you through your next interview:
Helicopter parents are to their kids what micromanagers are to the people they manage. While being engaged in your colleagues' lives is important, micromanaging their every move can backfire. Over-involvement often sends the underlying message that you don't trust that they can successfully accomplish anything on their own. That can take a serious toll on self-confidence.
There's more to productivity at work than blocking Facebook or only checking your email at certain intervals. It turns out that taking breaks -- and I don't just mean for lunch -- can do wonders for your long-term focus. That's where your office's break room comes in. But did you know that the atmosphere and contents of the break room can have an effect on the quality of these breaks?
We’ve all left a job. Whether voluntarily or involuntarily, leaving your organization or position is a commonality we all share at some point. The difference is how each person handles that transition. For many employees, especially those who voluntarily resign, leaving is a process they go through. It could involve months of thinking about it and planning out each detail. For those employees who are terminated though, they may or may not have much warning.
The best way to find out if somebody can do something well is to give them the chance to do it. While this isn’t always possible at the interview stage, you do have the opportunity to get candidates to carry out practical tasks. Better still, have a conversation with them while you do something new together. You can see how they interact, collaborate and react to a new challenge. Generally, you can get a glimpse at their character.
You want a promotion this year—but you’re not sure what moves will make it happen. You’re in luck, because while we couldn’t ask your boss for the answer, we did ask eight managers what they want to see before they’ll give their own employees a boost. Try their suggestions at your own workplace, and you may just snag that promotion soon.
