When the temperature drops...

During the winter, construction workers face a natural hazard – cold weather. The colder it gets, the more energy you need to use to stay warm. When it is also windy and raining or snowing, your body uses even more energy and loses heat faster. Working in cold or freezing temperatures for a long time can lead to health problems.

What are the health risks and symptoms?

Health Risk:

Symptoms:

Your temperature drops to 95°F or lower (a normal temperature is 98.6°F). You:

NEGOTIATING CONDITIONS

WHAT EMPLOYERS WANT KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AT WORK

Introduce yourself to each person you speak to. Try to sound confident and be polite. Be prepared to repeat yourself several times until you get to speak to the person who can help you.

Don’t let rejections get you down. Focus on the next call and the possibility of success.

Find a quiet place where you won’t be interrupted or distracted. If you have access to a landline phone this is better than using your mobile. Have a pen and paper handy. Start cold calling. 8 9

Cold Calling Tips

Cold calling is a necessary part of this business. If you want to grow your business, you have to contact new prospects, and cold calling is still a principle way to do that. Though, in this marketplace, it’s more challenging. These tips will help you handle cold calls like a pro:

Warm Up as Many Cold Calls as You Can

When possible, precede your calls with a mail or email campaign. Before calling, send the prospect a short, personal letter or email to introduce yourself and describe your services, and indicate that you’ll be calling in a few days to gauge interest. Then, promptly follow up. Wait a couple of days for them to receive the initial communication, then call. This allows you a “warmer” introduction; you can introduce your call by saying that you’re following up on the material you sent.

Know What You’re Talking About

Make sure you’re up to speed about your community and industry or market news. You want to sound plugged in and connected whenever you call prospects, and be able to discuss with them how your products or services fit into the “big picture.” If the prospect asks you a question and you don’t know the answer, it’s fine to say so—but always find out the answer to their questions and follow up with them.

Shift Your Focus

When the primary goal of your call is to make the sale, prospects are aware of your agenda—and that puts them on the defensive. Try approaching your call with a different goal: focus instead on discovering whether you’re able to solve a problem for the other person. It will put the prospect more at ease, and make him or her more receptive to what you have to say.

Craft a Script . . .

Your time on the phone is limited; you need to let the prospect know what you have to offer and why he or she might want it, in just a few short sentences. A written script lets you focus on points you want to make. It doesn’t need to be word for word, because you’ll want to keep the conversation fluid, but it will help you to be prepared for the conversation.

. . . but Customize Your Delivery

Don’t become too attached to any particular script or language. Every customer has specialized needs and preferences, so once you have a basic script in place, you can fine tune it to fit individual prospects. Edit your calling script to hit nerves for each new audience.

Listen as Much as You Talk

People almost always feel “pushed” by sales enthusiasm, which tends to include the unspoken assumption that your product or service is a great fit for the other person. But most likely, you’ve never spoken with this person before, and don’t actually know much about him or her. A better strategy is to invite the person to share concerns with you and to guide the conversation, rather than sticking to a pre-determined “pitch.” For example, if you hear, “We don’t have the budget,” you can reply, “That’s not a problem,” and then invite the prospect to tell you more about the situation.

Be Persistent

In this market, persistence is key. Eighty percent of new sales are made after the fifth contact, yet a number of salespeople give up after two or three. There is, however, a difference between being persistent and being pushy, and it depends largely on your motivation. Are you pushing for a commitment to meet your own goals or quotas, or because you truly believe you have a solution that can help the prospect? If you’re pushing for the customer’s benefit, rather than your own, you’re more likely to see success.

WHY ARE COVER LETTERS IMPORTANT IN A NUTSHELL:

A cover letter provides the reader with a filter or interpretive framework for reading your resume. It says, "In a minute you are going to read my resume. Here are the most important aspects of my experience, and how they apply to this opportunity."

Cover letters convey a personal sense of your professional identity, as well as your passion and motivation for the job and company. They also map out connections between past experiences and the position you are applying for.

Many candidates neglect to submit cover letters but a cover letter can provide you with an opportunity to stand out and show you are serious about the position.

Even if a cover letter is not requested, there is value in providing one!

WHAT MAKES A COVER LETTER PARTICULARLY EFFECTIVE?

It is free of grammatical errors and typos.

It is tailored specifically to the job or internship.

It is not a restatement of information from the resume Rather, it demonstrates how your experiences are relevant to the position in question.

It is the result of background research and networking, as well as a thoughtful writing process.

LAYOUT, FORMATTING, AND BASIC GUIDLEINES

Career Services typically recommends a one-page, three-paragraph cover letter.

Introduction: Who you are, what position you are interested in, where you heard about it, and why you are interested.

Middle: A series of connections between your experiences and the demands of the position. Try to synthesize the information into two or three useful themes that the employer has stated they are looking for in an applicant.

Wrap-up/Thank-you: Summarize your qualifications, offer contact information, and thank the reader for their time/consideration.

Aim for the body of the letter to be less than 2/3 of a page. Use standard, business letter formatting.

Try to get the appropriate addressee’s name. It is worth going the extra mile to track down the hiring/department/HR manager’s name. If you cannot locate this information reliably, use “Dear Hiring Manager” or “Hiring Committee” (if appropriate) Avoid addressing your cover letter “To whom it may concern.”

If you are directed to paste a cover letter in a text box, remove the address information and start with the greeting Retain the traditional formatting if you upload it as a PDF document

1STPARAGRAPH:WHOAREYOU?

In this paragraph, you will convey who you are, what position you are interested in, and where you heard about it

Be sure to specify the position (or at least the role) that you are interested in – use the organization’s own job title

Explain how you have come to know about the opportunity – if you were referred by an employee or other person significantly related to the organization or field; this is the place to mention it Express your interest and enthusiasm in the position and organization but be genuine – explain why you chose to apply for this particular opportunity An alternative is to use the final sentence to outline some of your strongest qualifications for the position If you do list skills here, be sure to demonstrate them later in the letter

2NDPARAGRAPH:WHATMAKESYOUSOSPECIAL?

Draw parallels between your experiences and the needs of the organization you are applying to Scan the job description (and the organization’s website) for key requirements and desired qualifications – these are your primary clues for tailoring your cover letter

Demonstrate how your experiences (or groups of experiences) relate to the position – connect roles/skills you have used in the past with the employer’s needs

You don’t have to respond to every bullet point in a job post and you should not discuss every experience on your resume – you are highlighting what is most pertinent to this opportunity specifically You don’t have to address your experiences in chronological order – try to highlight the most relevant aspects of your experience first

MAPPING IT OUT

Group an employer's needs into categories - they might be specified technical skills/qualifications, or key transferrable skills, such as: communication, organization, time management, leadership, and analytical skills.

Consider how your experiences connect with these categories. Imagine the perspective of the reader - what is the most easily understandable way to bring your experiences and skills together? Here are some examples:

"My internship experiences with and allowed me to develop leadership and project planning skills that will help me successfully coordinate events in this position."

"In my work with , I collaborated constantly with other team members to ensure..."

"Beyond my coursework, my experience with allowed me to further develop my capabilities in "

3RDPARAGRAPH:THECONCLUSION

Restate your interest in the organization and/or job and summarize what you have to offer Provide or reference your contact information (in the text of the final paragraph) and indicate any next steps you wish to pursue (For example, “I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss my qualifications with you ”)

Finally, thank the reader for their time and consideration

FINALCHECK

Make sure there are no spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors. The letter should be clear and concise. If someone spoke it aloud to you, would it make sense?

The letter should make specific connections between your experiences and the needs of the organization

Match the font style and size of your resume and use proper business letter layout

Read it out loud – you will be surprised at the typos and awkward grammar that this practice uncovers

Dear Mr. Cohen:

I was excited to learn about the Communications Intern position advertised on your website and have enclosed my resume for your consideration. I am a junior at Loyola University Chicago majoring in Health Systems Management and have become increasingly interested in exploring communications roles in the healthcare field.

I believe my interpersonal and organizational skills, as well as my recent efforts developing the online presence for my university’s Career Development Center, make me a strong candidate for the position. As a student worker at the Career Development Center, I continue to hone my communication skills and attention to detail by assessing student needs and scheduling them with one of 12 career advisors. This past semester, I took initiative to expand the office’s online presence using social media platforms. My biweekly posts to the center’s blog and my contributions to the center’s Facebook page have increased its visibility with current students and alumni considerably. I was also recognized for my creative contributions to the center’s recent marketing contest.

I know that NorthShore enjoys an excellent reputation among health care providers and patients, and I believe that I would be a valuable asset to your organization. I can be contacted at ggilb2@luc edu or (773) 555-1212 to further discuss my application

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Ms Hopkins:

Following up on our recent conversation, I am submitting my resume to apply for the position of Policy Director. I look forward to contributing to the important work you do, specifically to promote women’s access to and success in post-secondary education and training.

The focus of my career as a union organizer has been to improve the lives of low-wage workers In my union, Serenity Now, the workforce has been predominantly women working in the service industry. My ten years in the labor movement have provided me the opportunity to work in a variety of roles. Beginning as a field organizer, visiting workers in their homes and running union meetings developed my strong interpersonal and relationship-building skills. After working on multiple successful campaigns, I was recruited to work in the education department of our international union to promote its Human Fund The learning curve was steep shifting the focus of my work to research and strategy while continuing to rely on my solid communication skills. After successfully mounting a campaign at one of the state’s largest clothing manufacturers, I was promoted to the position of organizing director. In this role, my responsibilities have included recruiting and developing a team of organizers, running multiple internship programs, designing campaign structure and making final strategy decisions.

I recognize that the work of this position may be new to me, but my entire career with the union has been a series of challenges that have required me to adapt to new environments and acquire new skills. I have succeeded each time because I am a quick learner, a good listener, and an activist with the ability to see broadly, think strategically and act decisively. I am confident that if I become Policy Director that I can motivate your staff to work hard toward creating fundamental policy change in support of GEO’s mission Thank you for considering me for the position I look forward to hearing from you.

McDermott Will & Emery LLP

Dear Ms. Taylor:

I am writing to apply for the Practice Development assistant position you recently advertised on Loyola University Chicago’s RamblerLink website. I will be graduating this May with degrees in Political Science and International Studies, and have a strong interest in attending law school in the future. Through my internship with your firm’s Rome office, I learned firsthand about McDermott’s commitment to excellence and, in particular, its focus on building a strong firm culture across its practice groups.

My past work experiences would serve me well in a position that requires someone with knowledge of the legal field and solid organizational and administrative skills During the fall of 2017, I completed a semester-long internship at McDermott’s Rome office while also enrolled at Loyola’s John Felice Rome Center There I used my language skills to translate documents from Italian into English and draft correspondence for members of one of the firm’s trial teams, integrating myself quickly and smoothly with the firm’s support staff Since returning from Rome, I have continued to pursue my interest in the law with two internships through the Circuit Court of Cook County.

WRITING A RESUME FOR AFCS

CONTENT & LENGTH

We are filling some really exciting and rewarding positions at AFCS, and we’re anxious for you to submit your resume for consideration. To give your resume the best chance for review, please follow the suggestions below and use the AFCS Resume Checklist on the following page.

STYLE

When you’re preparing your resume, restrict styling as much as possible. How your resume looks carries very little weight in the review and consideration process. Presenting your skills and experience is the main purpose of your resume.

• Use standard fonts (e.g., Times New Roman or Calibri)

• Use an outline format which is easy to read

• Use short paragraphs rather than bullet lists

• Use capital letters to highlight key words

The length of your resume is dependent on your work and education history. While a good general rule is about four pages, it is important to fully describe your skills and experience, especially in the past ten years.

Thoroughly list your work experience, detailing your responsibilities and special skills required for each position. This is where you can shine above others being considered. While a job title may seem to imply certain expertise, if it is not listed or explained, we can’t make assumptions.

List other relevant accomplishments like professional recognition or awards.

List your education starting with college and university, degrees earned, major and minor study areas, and any certifications relevant to your professional qualifications.
