Recipe for Self-Confident

When I think about what builds my confidence, I think about a recipe that can make a delicious meal that is fulfilling to me. Well, I would like to share this recipe with all my professional workers and college students struggling with self-esteem issues and stress in their professional world.

What’s needed in the Recipe is as follows?

1 Cup of Anxiety – I know what you are thinking… Anxiety? Anxiety keeps you on your toes.

Anxiety is a good thing in small doses or for short periods because it gives you energy and deepens your emotional tone when communicating to an audience. If this is not how you identify with anxiety?

Think of this as an opportunity to explore a perspective shift.

Two cups of Certainty - These two cups of Certainty mean no doubting and no second-guessing yourself while speaking in front of a person or groups of people. Certainty is a risk you are willing to take in your life, career, college life, and relationship. You are worth it!

2 Cups of Safety – Relax your mind and be playful; it will give you more time to be expressive and thoughtful.

Safety is a state of mind that can be cultivated and used when you are nervous and speak in front of your peers or deliver an important message to a large group of professionals.

1 Cup of Gratitude – Keeps you humble and prepares you to show appreciation and kindness to your listeners.

Gratitude is happiness and positivity, good health, and the need to build a stronger relationship.

TRADEFIRST.COM ENCOURAGES JOB SEEKERS TO FOLLOW THEIR VISION

It is vital to have a vision for what you desire in your career, says Fred Detwiler, founder/owner of TradeFirst.com. “A clear and inspired vision will help you to move forward in your job search and other areas of your life,” said Fred, whose 44-year-old company is located in Oak Park, Michigan. A recent article by Indeed.com similarly reports that as a job seeker, you can better find the right job when you are focused and create a target list of companies and positions that you want.

Fred himself had a vision years ago, to create an organization that leveraged the concept of alternate currency, decades before cryptocurrencies! So, in 1978, Fred formed a very atypical company, which has helped many thousands of businesses through the use of professional trade dollars instead of cash to pay for products and services.

As you are seeking your first or next job in your career, Fred wants to encourage you to consider and honor your own goals and dreams and to move forward with a career and a life that inspire you!

Through the years, Fred and his dedicated team have created a TradeFirst community that has grown to more than 5000 Michigan businesses! This is the power of an idea, so be sure to make your ideas happen! His vision has allowed member businesses in Michigan to buy and sell products and services from each other without spending cash, by using a private internal currency, the trade dollar. Think of it like if you want to pay for an online app or buy a sub or sandwich, or perhaps shoes from a local shop. As a business, you could save your cash and use trade dollars instead! During the pandemic, thousands of Michigan businesses were helped by using trade. And, in the U.S., about 500,000 businesses use barter exchanges to get new sales, more business, and conserve cash for essential expenses. So, in your career goals, know that you can consider your own out-of-the-box career ideas and pursue your vision, as anything is possible!

Center for CAREER Development PRINCETON

What is an elevator pitch and why do I need one?

UNIVERSITY

An elevator pitch is a brief (think 30 seconds!) way of introducing yourself, getting across a key point or two, and making a connection with someone. It’s called an elevator pitch because it takes roughly the amount of time you’d spend riding an elevator with someone. If you happen to bump into someone you’ve been dying to meet in an elevator, how will you introduce yourself, get your point across, and ask to stay connected—all before that person gets off the elevator!

Elevator pitches are handy to have in mind any time you’re at an event where you might meet prospective job or networking connections.

How to create an elevator pitch.

As with most aspects of career planning, reflection is a critical part of creating an effective elevator pitch. To introduce yourself, you need to know yourself and be able to talk about yourself. The following components are important parts of a good elevator pitch.

1.Who am I?

Write a brief list of ways you describe yourself. Try to create a tailored list, appropriate to the audience you expect to be addressing. For example, in a professional networking situation, you might not include items such as your passion for baking or the fact that you have five younger siblings. Rather, you would focus on items such as your (proposed) concentration at Princeton, cocurricular activities you participate in, your hometown, etc. Examples:

My name is Terry Tiger. I’m a sophomore from Reno, Nevada, planning to concentrate in English at Princeton. I’m also an opinions editor for the Daily Princetonian.

I’m Pat Prince. I’m a junior at Princeton, concentrating in electrical engineering. I’m also a captain on the basketball team.

2.What do I do?

This is the part where you get to focus on an item or two (remember—you only have 30 seconds) that you want the person to remember. What are the skills or experiences you have that drive your career focus? How can you make a connection with the person that will help them understand what your career goals and priorities are? Specific items to address might include:

Skills: What skills will you bring to a job or internship, and how did you gain them?

Values/passion: What do you really care about related to your career goals? What drives your interests?

Examples:

Last summer, I interned for a nonprofit organization focused on providing resources to people with food insecurity. I created a database to inventory the supplies in our food pantry, and did outreach at local homeless shelters. I learned that I want to pursue a career path that will help ensure that people in underserved communities have access to the resources they need.

My coursework in economics has helped me realize that I am deeply curious about how markets work, and how investors make decisions. I have created a mock portfolio using a stock simulator, and have managed to realize a 10% increase in my investments over the past year.

3.What’s my ask?

It’s important to end by asking a question. The question might be as simple as a request for advice or sharing information. It might also include a request to keep connected. Sometimes it’s helpful to include context on why you attended this event. Examples:

I’m at the career fair because I’m hoping to find a summer internship in data science. Can you tell me whether your organization has any internships like this, and how I might go about applying?

I came to this networking event to learn from alumni about how they navigated their career paths. Could you tell me about how you decided to pursue a career as a social worker?

I really appreciated your presentation about how your research is contributing to drugs effective in cancer treatment. I know there’s a long line of people waiting to talk with you. Would you mind if I follow up with an email to ask you for your advice on how I might find a lab to conduct summer research?

Tips:

Keep it brief—remember, you’ve just got a few seconds to deliver your message. There will be time for sharing more information when you follow up.

Target your pitch to the event you’re attending: if you’re attending an event with all Princeton alums, you can focus more on Princeton activities and jargon. If you’re meeting with hiring managers at a career fair, you might need to decode some of the Princeton-specific language.

Practice: It will probably feel awkward the first few times you introduce yourself this way. The only way to get better and to feel more comfortable is to practice!

Have an ask: Always give the person you’re talking with a way to be helpful. Whether it’s through sharing information or making a professional contact, let them know how they can help you.

Follow up: Use email or LinkedIn to follow up. Remind the person of the context in which you met, thank them for speaking with you, and find a way to continue the conversation.

Building your Personal Brand to Boost your Career

Reference Guide

Personal brands should be important to everyone. Personal brands are not only for the entrepreneur that owns their own business. It is the secret sauce that can make you stand out of a stack of resumes. If you don’t develop your own personal brand, others will do it for you. Developing your personal brand is the proactive way of controlling your career development and how you are perceived in the marketplace. A strong personal brand will impact your ability to get the right jobs, promotions, and increase your ability to attract talent and capital.1

This document is designed to help Macquarie University staff members understand the purpose and importance of developing their own personal brand and how this can be achieved.

What is a personal brand?

A personal brand is the process of developing a "mark" that is created around your name or your career. You use this "mark" to express and communicate your skills, personality, and values

We all can be a brand and cultivate our power to stand out and be unique. This uniqueness draws people to our product, our services, or even just our message. Your personal brand should be about who you are and what you have to offer.1

Tips for building a personal brand

1. Say “yes’ to relevant opportunities – i.e Actively seek out and volunteer for high profile roles and assignments where you can demonstrate your new brand in action.

2. Seek out opportunities to do presentations and chair meetings e.g. volunteer to share a project update at a team meeting, or present back to your team on a seminar or workshop you have attended.

3. Ask at least one question at every meeting you attend i.e. speak up during meetings. If you don’t say anything or ask any questions in a meeting, others simply won’t notice you, and you certainly won’t be building a reputation for anything other than being ‘the quiet one.” Don’t talk for the sake of talking but find a way that works for you to verbally engage in staff meetings, workshops and /or events.

4. Network internally beyond your immediate team. People promote people they know, trust and who they see stretching beyond their immediate duties. Interacting with other teams and their leadership gives you a household name and creates opportunities for you to become a more well-rounded contributor to your business.

5. Share you voice with influencers. Make a point to proactively providing advice and support within your area of expertise. Join relevant online and offline communities and make connections

6. Stand by you word. You are only as good as your word, and that is a 24x7 commitment. One of the best ways to build your brand is to do what you promise. It is always better to over-deliver than over-promise. Your brand and integrity precede you. While it takes a long time to build your brand, it can be destroyed very quickly when and if you break that trust. Be reliable and DO what you say.

7. Build good relationships and foster good communication skills. Good communication is the cornerstone of your brand. The way you interact and speak with others is core to how you are perceived.

Take care how you manage and respond to emails. If you are busy, let people know you will get back to them and always follow

Building your Personal Brand to Boost your Career

Reference Guide

through. Consider how you sign off emails. You are creating an impression, pleasantries like “please,” “thank you,” and “have a great afternoon,” count. Take a few seconds before hitting send on emails and do a sanity check. If you are about to let off some steam, take a deep breath and park your emails in drafts. Imagine you are on the receiving end of your email.

A clear, understandable message, without typos, demonstrates that you are organised, professional and respectful; qualities everyone wants in their personal brand.

In person make good eye contact, stay focused and keep good posture. All suggest you are alert and interested.

8. Share insights, not information. What really adds value, is to convey why the information presented is important and how others can use it. Take the extra step to interpret data for your team and stakeholders so they come away with an “ah-ha” that helps them do a better job.

9. Dress for success. You can’t go wrong looking well-groomed. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to look good. It’s always better to dress up than dress down, if you want to get ahead, especially if you interface with clients. No one was ever accused of dressing “a little too professionally.”

10. Be authentic. Be genuine. If you are out to impress, it will show. Show kindness to others. Offer to help others when you can and take an extra second to pay it forward. 2

11. Develop a digital footprint (see section below)

Building a digital profile

In the digital age, the way you present yourself and the messages you send alongside yourself can have a huge impact on your career Having an online presence is becoming increasingly

essential in a society that relies so heavily on the internet.

In today's digital age, you are your brand. Therefore, it's important to maintain your internet brand management and do so in the most effective way for your career. A key element of your personal and professional brand is your digital footprint, which can help you obtain employment, allow you to contribute significantly to your employer's operation, and advance your career.”5

Key factors to consider:

1. Develop and optimise your LinkedIn profile. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, you need to open one. There are millions of people on LinkedIn all around the world and you will be missing out on a great opportunity to build your personal brand if you don’t have a presence on the site. LinkedIn profiles are the new CV’s and many people and organisations now use LinkedIn to search for new recruits and to look people up. It has become the new platform for recruitment. The more you use the site the quicker you will build an inline presence. The following online course can help you build and develop your LinkedIn profile Learning LinkedIn (Section 1,shows you step by step how to build your LinkedIn Profile).

2. Set up your business Facebook page: This is another platform that you can use –but don’t use your personal Facebook page, rather create a new business page that you can post to from your personal account – but keep them separate. Post all businessoriented links to this page and keep in mind that potential employers will see what is here.

3. Twitter: if you already have a twitter account, you may want to set up a business twitter account and keep your business brand separate. Use this account to follow thought leaders and other people in your industry you find interesting. Tweet links to current industry news or retweet relevant tweets to your followers. 4

Building your Personal Brand to Boost your Career

Reference Guide

4. Have you own domain and website: having your own website and domain puts you in the driver’s seat and gives you leverage to communicate beyond restrictions of social media sites that come with their own structure and limitations. Running you own website highlights that you have really taken ownership of your own career.

5. Be consistent across platforms. Online platforms all vary on demographics and purpose. Your combined online presence should be coherent and consistent. I.e. your CV, your LinkedIn profile and the way you present yourself personally must all work together. Showing up consistently and authentically will create trust and support for your work and increase your impact.

6. Google yourself and correct if necessary. A good way to build a solid personal brand online is to check what’s already out there. Google yourself and find out what pops up. If there are any concerning photos or news that you are connected to, then you can take action to correct. This is a great baseline for what you are putting out there. Always think before you post, you never know who is looking you up.

7. Be intentional about your content. It is not enough to just post stuff. You must know what you are after, who you are looking for and what you want them to do. Know your strategy, be consistent and be realistic – i.e. only post content once a month but be consistent.

8. Get feedback from your peers. Road test your personal branding information with trusted peers or colleagues.

The Bottom-line

Building a personal brand takes time and effort, but it’s worth it. The need for a personal brand will continue to increase. It’s the one thing that no one can take away from you, and it can follow you throughout your career. It’s a leadership requirement that lets people know who you are and what you stand for. 1

U.S. SAVINGS BONDS

Why Should You Invest in U.S. Savings Bonds?

Competitive - U.S. Savings Bonds offer competitive rates that compare favorably with other forms of saving. Interest accrues monthly and compounds semiannually.

Convenient - Buy bonds online through TreasuryDirect.

Safe - The United States backs savings bonds with its full faith and credit. Your paper bonds are registered, so if they’re lost, mutilated, or stolen, Treasury can replace them in electronic form within your TreasuryDirect account. Bonds in TreasuryDirect are safely maintained in your account with the U.S. Treasury.

Accessible - Need your money quickly? It’s right there for you, although the longer you let your bonds grow, the more you benefit. Still, you can redeem them anytime after 12 months.*

Tax Benefits - Interest is exempt from state and local income taxes. Federal income tax is deferred until your bonds mature or you redeem them, whichever is first. Also, if all conditions are met, using savings bonds to pay for some education expenses offers additional federal tax benefits.

Affordable - Save with as little as $25.

Networking: How to Introduce Yourself

A networking introduction or “elevator pitch” succinctly defines you and your background and interests. It can be used at career fairs, conferences and networking events. The elevator pitch is a short summary given in the time span of an elevator ride (approximately 30 seconds to two minutes). The goal is to introduce yourself, engage your audience and to start a conversation.

An elevator pitch needs to quickly convey important information. Here are some steps to assist in crafting a great pitch:

Introduce yourself

There is a lot of flexibility in the introduction. It should include something unique about yourself such as, area of study, degree, internships, experience, research, projects or military service. You can mention possible connections such as individuals in the same department, similar backgrounds and alumni.

Identify your goal/purpose

It may help the person you are speaking to point you in the right direction for further assistance. Be succinct. If your goals aren’t clear, they won’t be able to effectively assist you.

Describe your relevant experience

Give 1-2 solid examples of your experience that relate directly to that organization or position. As with your introduction, you can discuss major, degree, service or anything else that makes you stand out. You can also briefly discuss research, awards or presentations you’ve given. Don’t repeat anything you mentioned in your introduction.

Wrap it up

Pull everything together in a brief but interesting concluding sentence. This will reaffirm what you want and how they can help you.

Engage with a question

Be curious. People enjoy sharing their own interests. Ask questions, such as:

• What do you do? • How did you get involved in this field? • What do you like or not like about it?

• What advice would you give someone entering this field?

Follow up

While still in conversation, explore possible opportunities for continuing the conversation, for example:

• Perhaps we could meet and discuss _____ opportunities in your organization? • What is the process for applying for internships/jobs at your company? • For following up, is there a particular person I should contact? • Can I connect with you on LinkedIn? • May I have your business card?

• Can I give/send you my resume or business card?

Practice, practice, practice

Put it on paper! Write out a script or talking points, then craft your pitch and practice. Use focused terminology that highlights your experience in an area, but make sure not to use industry jargon or acronyms that average people won’t understand. Practice until you can smoothly give your pitch.

Networking: Example Pitch Templates

Here are example templates you can use:

Questions and Answers about Series I Savings Bonds

GENERAL

Question: What is the Series I bond?

Answer: The Series I bond is an accrual type savings bond tied to inflation. The bond is issued at face value with a 30-year final maturity a 20-year original maturity period immediately followed by a 10-year extended maturity period.

Question: How are Series I bond earnings determined?

Answer: The earnings rate, which also is called the composite rate, can change every six months. It is made up of a fixed rate and an inflation rate. The fixed rate stays the same for the life of the bond. The inflation rate can change every six months from the issue date of the bond. When the inflation rate changes, the earnings rate does too.

Question: When can a Series I bond be cashed (redeemed)?

Answer: Series I bonds with issue dates prior to February 2003 became eligible for redemption six months from the issue date. Bonds with issue dates of February 2003 and later are eligible for redemption one year from the issue date. However, if a bond is cashed within the first five years after its issue date, interest earned during the three months prior to cashing will be forfeited. Once a Series I bond is five years old, there is no interest penalty for redemption.

Question: Can you determine what the value of a Series I bond will be in future years?

Answer: No. Although a Series I bond’s fixed rate remains the same throughout the bond’s life, the semiannual inflation rate can vary. You can count on a Series I bond to hold its value; that is, the bond’s redemption value will not decline.

Question: What is the inflation rate?

Answer: The inflation rate is the percent change in the CPI-U over a six-month period ending prior to May 1 and November 1 of each year. For example, the earnings rate announced on May 1 reflects an inflation rate from the previous October through March.

Question: Will the value of a Series I bond decrease during periods of deflation, when the CPI-U declines?

Answer: No. In periods of deflation, the bond’s redemption value won’t decline.

Question: What are some tax advantages of the Series I bond?

Answer: Earnings are exempt from both state and local income taxes and federal income taxes can be deferred until redemption, final maturity (30 years after issue date), or other taxable disposition, whichever occurs first.

Question: How long will my Series I bond earn interest?

Answer: I bonds earn interest for up to 30 years.

Question: Is there a tax advantage for Series I bonds used for college tuition?

Answer: Yes. If you qualify, you can exclude all or part of the interest on I bonds from income as long as the proceeds are used to pay for tuition and fees at eligible post-secondary educational institutions.

PURCHASING

Question:

Answer:

How can I purchase I bonds?

You can buy I bonds in electronic form, at face value, after you open a TreasuryDirect® account. Purchase prices start at $25, and you can buy in any amount above that up to $10,000 per person, per calendar year.

You also can buy an I bond in paper form, through the Tax Time Purchase Program. Use IRS Form 8888, “Allocation of Refund (Including Savings Bonds Purchases).” Purchase prices start at $50 and you can buy in $50 multiples up to $5,000 per person, per calendar year. After buying, if you have a remaining balance due to you on your tax return, you can choose to have remaining funds delivered to you by direct deposit or by check. IRS Form 8888 provides detailed instructions explaining how to request bond purchases. More information can be found at https://www.treasurydirect.gov/savingsbonds/buy-a-bond/#buying-paper

Treasury discontinued over-the-counter sales of paper I bonds in December 2011.

NOTES:

• Purchase limits for electronic and paper bonds are separate, meaning you can buy up to $15,000 in I bonds per year ($10,000 electronic and $5,000 paper).

• Adding or naming a coowner doesn’t allow you to buy bonds above the annual limits.

Question: If an individual purchases the maximum allowable amount of Series I bonds in one calendar year, does this affect the annual limit for that individual’s Series EE savings bond purchases that same year?

Answer: No, an individual may purchase the maximum amount in Series I bonds and purchase the maximum amount in Series EE bonds during the same calendar year.

Question: What registrations are available for Series I bonds you sell today?

Answer: This depends on whether they are electronic or paper. In either case, they may have registrations in the names of individuals. Electronic I bonds also may have registrations in the names of entities

Registrations for electronic I bonds: sole owner, primary owner with secondary owner, beneficiary, guardianship estate (for example, “John Doe, guardian of the estate of Mary Doe, a minor”), personal trust estate (for example, “First National Bank, trustee under agreement with John Doe, dated 01/02/98”), testamentary trust estate (for example, “Jerry Green, trustee under the will of Jane Green, deceased”), deceased owner’s administered estate (for example, “Joe Bond executor under the will of Jane Bond deceased”), corporation, Limited Liability Company (LLC), Professional Limited Liability Company (PLLC), sole proprietorship, and partnership

Registrations for paper I bonds: single owner, coowner, and beneficiary.

REDEMPTION AND REISSUE

Question: How can I determine the current value of a Series I bond?

Answer: If you hold the bond in TreasuryDirect, you can see the value there: log in, click the “Current Holdings” tab, choose a series, and click “Submit ” Otherwise, you can check the value in the Savings Bond Calculator at https://www.treasurydirect.gov/BC/SBCPrice

Question: When are earnings added to a Series I bond’s value?

Answer: Interest accumulates and is added to the value of the bond on the first of each month based on the current earnings rate. Compounding of interest is done on a semiannual basis.

Question: Can you remove the name of a living coowner or beneficiary from a Series I bond’s registration without the consent of that coowner or beneficiary?

Answer: The name of a living coowner can't be removed from a Series I bond’s registration in a reissue transaction, regardless of that coowner’s willingness to consent, unless the reissue is an electronic reissue in TreasuryDirect or ordered or approved by a court in a divorce settlement. A beneficiary’s name can be removed at the request of the owner of the bond without the beneficiary’s knowledge or consent

Question: Can paper Series I bonds be reissued?

Answer: Yes, they can be reissued, but only into a TreasuryDirect account. In TreasuryDirect, the bond will be electronic, not paper. The registration on the bond must be one that’s available for electronic bonds (Above, see “What registrations are available for Series I bonds?”)

Question: How do you calculate the interest rate of a Series I bond?

Answer: I bond interest rates have two parts:  A fixed rate that lasts for 30 years  An inflation rate that changes every six months

I bond fixed rates are determined each May 1 and November 1. Each fixed rate applies to all I bonds issued in the six months following the rate determination. The semiannual inflation rate is determined each May 1 and November 1. It is the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) over six months. Each semiannual inflation rate applies to all outstanding I bonds for six months.

We combine fixed rates and semiannual inflation rates to determine composite earnings rates. An I bond’s composite earnings rate can change every six months after its issue date. Here’s how we set the first composite rate for I bonds issued November 2005 – April 2006:

Fixed rate = 1.00%

Semiannual inflation rate = 2.85%

Composite rate = [Fixed rate + (2 x Semiannual inflation rate) + (Fixed rate x Semiannual inflation rate)]

Composite rate = [0.0100 + (2 x 0.0285) + (0.0100 x 0.0285)]

Composite rate = [0.0100 + 0.057 + 0.000285]

Composite rate = [0.067285]

Composite rate = 0.0673

Composite rate = 6.73%
