WHAT TO DO

WHEN YOU ARE NOT GETTING RESULTS FROM YOUR JOB SEARCH

By Michael M DeSafey

Finding a job in the highly competitive engineering, environmental, and construction industries can be a difficult and tiring process.

It is easy to become frustrated with your job search, especially if you are not getting the results you want.

If you are having difficulty finding the right job, it might be time to take a step back and reevaluate your approach. To further your career and land your dream job, follow these simple steps.

Take a Short Break From Searching

This does not mean you should give up completely and get a job flipping burgers. Sometimes, however, it is best to take a short break from what you are doing, especially if you are having a hard time with it. Take a deep breath and do something to take your mind off the issue at hand.

Frustration from job searching can lead to burning bridges you need to keep. Try to keep a positive attitude throughout the process. This way, you can avoid doing something you will later regret.

Address Your Obstacles

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/expert/Michael_M_DeSafey/1832732

Think about what is preventing you from finding a job. Roadblocks do happen. However, it is your job to find a way around obstacles instead of being stuck behind them.

Obstacles often involve job requirements. Evaluate yourself as a whole to see if you are a good fit for the job at hand. You can do this by making a list of the qualifications and skills that you have and the ones that you need. Compare the lists and see where you can improve. This can help make you the best candidate for the job and improve your career path forward.

Make a Plan

Once you determine what is tripping you up, you can make a plan for overcoming it. A setback is not the time to give up but rather the time to regroup and get organized. Determine your overall career goals and, more specifically, your job search goals.

Your goal could be to improve a trade skill or computer knowledge, or something as simple as applying to two new jobs.

Include goals for networking (for more information, keep reading), developing your skills, and updating your resume and cover letter.

Then, set deadlines for when you want to accomplish your goals.

Each week you will move closer and closer to finding your dream job.

10

NOVEMBER 9, 2018

Be sure to stay committed to your plan. Consider hanging it up in a central location or always leaving it open on your computer.

This will ensure that your career development is always on the forefront of your mind. Doing this will also make it easier to track your progress and keep you motivated while you are achieving your goals.

Use Your Network

Never underestimate the power of a strong professional network.

According to a recent survey1, up to 85% of all jobs are filled by networking. This is truly a powerful tool that is often overlooked by job seekers. If you are growing tired of submitting application after application to online ad listings, it might be time to switch up your approach.

Call upon your existing network and try to make a few new contacts too. Reach out to old bosses and coworkers to see if they know about any job opportunities. Join a professional organization like the American Institute of Constructors or the National Society of Professional Engineer and make new business contacts.

You can also take advantage of online networking opportunities like LinkedIn.

Redo Your Resume

If you're having a hard time getting a job, it may not be your networking skills or qualifications at all. It may simply just be your resume. It is important to tailor your resume to the position you are looking for. Write down a list of relevant keywords to include in your resume. For example, if you are looking for a position as a project manager, use keywords like "leadership," "experienced," and "safety compliant." Scan the job listing for the skills and qualifications the employer is looking for. This way, you can determine what skills and traits they value the most.

Work With a Recruiter

If you are feeling totally discouraged from your job search, it might be time to contact a qualified recruiter. A professional can provide a fresh perspective and use their network of contacts to get you moving in the right direction. Try to find a recruiter who specializes in the construction, engineering or environmental industries.

Why You Should Drive For a Commercial Trucking Company When you first start driving a truck, you can be torn between trying to be an owner-operator and driving for a well-known company. It can be hard to get a job with a company without much experience, but there are plenty of benefits that come along when you drive for a company.

Many bigger companies offer benefits that you would have to pay for as an owner-operator. They may offer health insurance, which is quite expensive. They will probably also offer you vacation and sick pay.

Many companies will help pay for hotels and flights (if needed) while you are on the road. If you end up sleeping somewhere overnight, they will pay for your hotel. If you are simply taking a load out and flying home, your company will pay to send you home.

Long haul

REQUIRED: 2+ years experience PREFERRED: Some pipe experience Work Mon. - Fri. • Home every other night Occasional Weekends Must pass drug test.

To apply call us today:

832-571-7698 or 281-745-2853 TRANSPORTATION

$5,200

SIGN-ON BONUS

If your rig breaks down, you will not have to pay to fix it and get paid while it is getting fixed. Owner-operators never get paid when their rig is broken. They even have to shell out the money to fix it, while not getting paid. It can be costly both in parts, labor, and missed work.

When you are a newer owner-operator, you will be on the road a lot in the beginning until you find steady work. You may put in 60 and 70-hour work weeks, only to do it again the next week. It is your responsibility to find work and keep work. Paychecks may be quite unsteady for several months or years. With a company, you know that you will have steady work.

There are so many benefits that come along with driving for a commercial trucking company. You should get paid vacation, sick days, and health insurance. You will have steady work, even if your truck is down and you won't have to pay to fix it, either. Often, driving for a company is a smart way to start your career.

WHY WAIT? DO IT NOW!!

Career and Technical Education

By Diana Anderson

At most high schools in the Houston area, members of Generation Z can take Career and Technical Education classes that prepare them to immediately be employed after high school.

If college is still in their plans, seniors at most schools can receive CTE scholarships and their CTE studies will definitely give them a head start when they get to college.

First, who is Gen Z? If you were born after 1995, you are Gen Z. If you are 16 to 23, you are Gen Z. Gen Z was born into a world of technology, and they are the best multi-taskers you’ll ever meet.

They can do research on their phones while they are taking notes on their iPads, eating their lunch, and talking with friends on social media. They also don’t want to acquire a lot of debt while going to college. That means that CTE classes are perfect for them.

Gen Z is known for being more entrepreneurial - 72% say they want to start their own business. “According to Gen Z marketing strategist Deep Patel, “the newly developing high tech and highly networked world has resulted in an entire generation thinking and acting more entrepreneurially.”” Many of them are working on “side gigs” right now and aren’t looking for the traditional retail jobs. The CTE department is the best place to learn the skills for filling a niche that may not even be defined yet. Generation Z will actually define and fill that niche.

It may be that they take cosmetology because they love to style their friends’ hair and want to make it their career. It may be that they want a job that can pay for them to go to school so that they don’t need college loans. They can learn, practice and get certified at most high schools throughout the state.

There are many more post-high school careers that one can pursue in automotive technology, health science, veterinary science, aviation, transportation, culinary arts, marine science and the list is almost endless.

CTE helps this generation become work-ready in terms of behavior and attitude, but it also makes job ready a priority so that they have specific knowledge for success. It makes students college ready because of the detailed emphasis on learning that CTE has given them. That means that they are career ready as well. The decisions that they make about their future are based on precise knowledge of the field they are choosing. In some ways, it’s like the old apprentice system where knowledgeable people took newbies under their wings and helped them learn. That pretty much describes the instructors in these programs CTE programs are different in almost every high school, and the classes are diverse. The one thing that is always the same is that the opportunities represented in these classes are a great way to make graduates successful whether their plans do or don’t attend college. The world needs more drivers and electricians and plumbers and hair stylists. We need more veterinary tech and airplane mechanics and mechanics. When you realize all of the benefits that Career and Technical Education presents to high school students, you know that these programs are a perfect match for Generation Z and for the rest of us who need these talented people.

CABLE TECHNICIAN INSTALLER

Q: There has been something on my mind that I’ve meant to ask you, Diana. I’ve never met anyone in my entire life who has told me that they love their job, and they are making $100K or more annually. It doesn’t matter if they are blue, white, green or pink collar, unfortunately you just can’t have it both ways. How ironic?

What do you have to say about this?

-Houston, Texas Reader A: What I have to say is that you are working from very limited experience and just haven’t talked with the right people. One person I know makes between $100K and $198K per year and has for more than 15 years. She loves her job. Another person I know made more than $12M per year, and trust me, he loved his job!! The best way to research your theory is to begin making $100K+ per year and fi nd out if you are happy. LOL Q: I never quite know what to do when the interviewers off er me a drink. It fl usters me to have to deal with it during the interview, and I’m sure I sound confused since I am preoccupied with not being an idiot. I’m afraid that I’ll spill or slurp or dribble, and I really can’t concentrate on drinking coff ee and interviewing at the same time.

What should I say when asked if I’d like some water or any other drink?

Paid Training & Paid weekly Health, Dental & Vision Insurance Vacation Pay, Sick Pay & 401k

Apply at Jobsparx.com Search job id # 51317

-Houston, Texas Reader A: Darn! I thought I was being polite. I think most interviewers are just trying to be nice, and I had no idea it could cause the candidate so much trouble. I do see your point, though. Oftentimes when I off er water or coff ee, the candidate will say no thanks because they just fi nished a drink. That response will defi nitely win. Get a drink before going into the interview, and you can truthfully say, “Thanks, but no thanks!” I don’t think it’s ever a good idea to carry your own drink into the interview and sit there drinking it. And don’t put your coff ee on my wood desk!

Q: I have been trying to get a job in another city in Texas for more than three months, and I can’t fi nd a company that will pay for my move. How do I fi nd out before I waste any time with companies that are that cheap?

-Cut ‘n’ Shoot, Texas Reader A: At the risk of off ending you, I will say that there are very few companies that will move you to a diff erent city when they barely know you. They usually reserve that perk for employees who have already been working with them for some time. Think about it: would you pony up thousands of dollars to move someone before you even knew about her/his work ethic or whether they brought added value to your company? If you are transferred to a diff erent city after working for them for a while, they pay all of your expenses.

I wouldn’t say that these companies are “cheap”, but I would question you as to why you want to move but won’t invest in yourself.

-If you have any questions about interviewing, hiring, or work, I’d love to hear from you. Due to the volume of response, not every question will appear in the column, but most questions will receive an email response within 2 to 3 days.

S A M E OCCUPATION,

DIFFERENT PAY: HOW WAGES VARY Elka Torpey

Professional athletes make a lot of money, right?

Well, some do.

The top-earning 10 percent of athletes and sports competitors made more than the $187,200 cutoff that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) used in estimating wages in May 2017. That includes the players who make news for signing multimillion-dollar contracts.

But the lowest earning 10 percent of athletes and sports competitors had annual wages of less than $19,220. That's quite a bit less than the $37,684 median for all occupations in May 2017—and nowhere near what top athletes earn.

This article focuses on occupations with big differences in high- and low-earning workers, because people exploring careers like to know whether wages vary drastically within the same occupation.

A word about wages

The wages in this article are from the BLS Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) survey.

This survey defines wages as straight-time, gross pay including some types of incentive pay, such as commissions, production bonuses, and tips.

Premium pay, such as overtime pay or shift differentials, and certain other types of bonuses, such as profit-sharing payments, are not included. This survey also does not collect data on workers who are self-employed; their wages might differ from the wages listed here.

Large differences in wages may be the result of a combination of factors, such as industry of employment, geographic location, and worker skill.

To identify occupations with big wage differences, this article looks at percentile wages.

Percentiles and wage differences

Percentile wages show how workers' pay varies.

As the illustration shows, the 10th percentile wage is the point at which 10 percent of workers in an occupation made less than that amount and 90 percent made more. The 90th percentile wage is the point at which 90 percent of workers in an occupation made less than that amount and 10 percent made more. The difference between those two wages—the high earners and low earners in an occupation—is referred to here as the "wage difference."

The median wage is the point at which half of workers earned more than that amount and half earned less. In this article, the median wage is included in occupation descriptions. Yet median wages tell only part of the story of how much workers in an occupation actually earn.

Commercial pilots, for example, had a median NOVEMBER 9, 2018 46

annual wage of $78,740—more than two times the median for all occupations in May 2017. But commercial pilots' wage difference, the gap between the 90th percentile wage and the 10th percentile wage, was more than $100,000.

Reasons wages vary Everyone brings unique skills and abilities to a job. And no two jobs are exactly alike. Variations affect pay for jobs within the same occupation.

Often, the more pronounced these variations are, the bigger the wage difference.

In contrast, occupations with less variability among workers and jobs may have smaller wage differences. Fast food cooks, for example, have fairly consistent wages, and jobs in this occupation tend to involve similar tasks, industries of employment, and skill requirements.

Credentials. Workers who have advanced education or hold professional certification or licensure may earn more than other workers in the same occupation who don't have these credentials, especially when credentials are sought after by employers.

Experience and skill. Often, the longer you do a job, the more productive you become. As a result, experienced workers usually earn more than beginners. Workers who have in-demand skills also may earn more.

Industry or employer. Occupational wages vary by industry and employer. Diverse working conditions, clientele, and training requirements are among the reasons why wages might differ from one employment setting to the next.

Job tasks. Jobs for a specific occupation often have similar position descriptions, but individual tasks may vary. And jobs involving more complex tasks or greater responsibility may have higher wages than those that don't, even within the same company.

Geographic location. Some states or areas have higher wages than others for jobs in an occupation. Local demand for the work and cost of living are among the geographic factors affecting wages.

Success and performance. Some occupations are extremely competitive, and a small number of workers who are successful in them often have very high earnings. Workers whose pay depends on their job performance also might have very high wages or very low wages.

Occupations with big wage differences

This section presents occupations that had a

wage difference of more than $100,000 in May 2017, higher than the wage difference for all workers. These occupations are grouped as follows: • Arts, entertainment, and sports • Healthcare • Management • Sales, business, and financial • Science, math, and engineering • Other Arts, entertainment, and sports Ability and success affect pay in many arts, entertainment, and sports occupations. These occupations often require both skill and years of practice. In many of them, relatively few people make it big.

Actors, for example, had one of the biggest wage differences of any occupation in May 2017: more than $100,000 between the top-earning 10 percent and the bottom-earning 10 percent of workers. But there aren't many jobs for these workers overall, and few people achieve the success needed to become a top-paid actor.

Among other factors that may affect wage differences in these occupations are hours worked, industry of employment, and job location. For example, many musicians and singers, like actors, do not work full time, year round, and so the wage difference for these workers may be even greater than the estimates in the indicate.

In some arts, entertainment, and sports occupations, the more lucrative the industry that employs these workers, the higher their wages. For example, producers and directors in advertising, public relations, and related services had a median annual wage nearly twice that of producers and directors in theater companies and dinner theaters, $107,330 a year compared with $66,670.

And perhaps equally unsurprising, the median annual wage for art directors in New York, where the cost of living is relatively high and where jobs may be more prestigious than in other locations, was $111,120. In South Carolina, where the cost of living is much lower and there are fewer of these highly paid jobs, the median annual wage for art directors was $58,470. (In Texas, the median annual wage for art directors was $77,860) Healthcare Big wage differences in the healthcare occupations might reflect workers' diverse credentials and levels of experience. Before qualifying for a license, some healthcare practitioners must complete a residency program, a period of on-thejob training that typically lasts from 1 to 8 years.

During that time, pay is usually much lower than it would be for licensed, experienced workers.

VOL. 23 ISSUE 1166

Podiatrists, for example, must earn a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree and complete a 3-year residency program, after which they qualify for licensure. And once they are licensed, podiatrists' wages are likely to increase as they continue to gain experience. With a wage difference of more than $139,470, these workers had one of the biggest gaps in wages of any healthcare occupation.

Number of clients, geographic location, and industry of employment are among the other factors influencing wages for these occupations. Chiropractors who have many clients, for example, are likely to earn more than those who have fewer clients.

As with many occupations, wages for healthcare workers vary by geographic location. For example, veterinarians in the Ventura, California, metropolitan area had a median annual wage of $171,670, more than 4 times the $40,420 median annual wage of veterinarians in and around College Station, Texas.

And in some healthcare occupations, industries that pose potential injuries to workers may pay more than ones that do not. For example, psychiatrists who worked in psychiatric and substance abuse hospitals had a median annual wage of $171,700, and psychiatrists who worked for insurance carriers had a median annual wage of $97,590.

Management Managers with different job tasks and qualifications often are grouped together in the same occupation. This variation might be one of the reasons for the big wage differences.

Advertising and promotions managers, for example, may have vastly different pay depending on the types of accounts they handle. A highly paid worker in this occupation might coordinate all of the advertising for a large, multinational corporation, and another worker might make much less overseeing the classified ads department of a local newspaper. As a result, the wage difference—more than $142,140—for this relatively small and competitive occupation was among the highest of any type of manager.

Additional factors, such as industry of employment, education level, and job performance might also contribute to differences in pay.

Generally, the more technical an industry is, the better paid its managers are.

Varying education levels also contribute to big wage differences for these workers. For example, some jobs that typically require a masters or doctoral degree at the entry level may be open to natural sciences managers who have advanced education. These jobs are likely to pay more than other jobs for natural sciences managers that require a bachelor's degree or less education.

And sales managers can boost their wages through bonuses or commissions made by meeting performance goals.

Sales, business, and financial Many sales and financial workers are paid a commission, usually after selling a specific amount of goods or services. A commission may be earned in addition to or instead of a salary and can lead to big differences in pay

VOL. 23 ISSUE 1166

among workers in the same occupation.

Real estate brokers, for example, earn most of their income from commissions on property sales—usually a percentage of those sales—so those who sell expensive properties or have higher sales volumes are likely to earn more than those who don't. And these workers had one of the biggest wage differences of any sales occupation..

median annual wage of $124,540 in May 2014.

That was more than twice that of their counterparts in state-government-owned colleges, universities, and professional schools: $52,840.

In addition to performance-based pay, factors such as experience, industry of employment, and education level may also play a role in large wage differences for sales, business, and financial occupations. For example, management analysts who have several years of experience often command high pay as they take on additional responsibilities, such as overseeing teams of other analysts.

Judges, magistrate judges, and magistrates had one of the biggest wage differences of the occupations—$147,440. Job tasks for these workers vary by levels of authority, from handling simple infractions or disputes to presiding over complex legal cases on appeal, which may contribute to wage differences.

The clientele that an industry serves may also influence wage potential for workers in an occupation. Personal financial advisors in the securities, commodity contracts, and other financial investments and related activities industry—which often serves the financial needs of wealthy clients—had a median annual wage of $90,970. That was more than double the median wage of $37,710 for advisors working in individual and family services, whose clients were more likely to have low incomes.

And the diverse education levels of supervisors might lead to variations in their pay. For example, those who supervise wholesale and manufacturers' sales representatives of technical and scientific products may be more likely to have a bachelor's degree or higher-and may earn more-than those who supervise telemarketers.

Science, math, and engineering Varying education levels is among the reasons for big wage differences in certain science, math, and engineering occupations.

Jobs requiring more advanced education are more likely to have higher pay. Some geoscientists, for example, have a bachelor's degree, and others have a master's or doctoral degree. But education alone may not be the reason geoscientists had one of the largest wage differences (more than $140,800): geoscientists who travel to remote locations or spend months out at sea, who often work long days or irregular schedules, may earn higher wages than others in the occupation.

Other occupations Wages for occupations related to law, teaching, and air transportation vary widely due to a number of factors.

Additional factors affecting wages include worker qualifications, industry of employment, and job location. To qualify for higher paying jobs, for example, airline and commercial pilots usually need more experience and credentials than lower paying jobs require.

Within educational services, the public sector pays more than the private sector for some teaching jobs. Postsecondary computer science teachers in state-government-owned colleges, universities, and professional schools, for example, had a median annual wage of $87,960, while those in privately owned business schools and computer and management training had a median annual wage of $51,810.

Geography often matters for some workers in this "other occupations" category. For example, lawyers in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area had a median annual wage of $154,160. By comparison, lawyers in the Western Montana nonmetropolitan area had a median annual wage of $37,530.

Learn more about the occupations in this article and about many others in the Occupational Outlook Handbook, which describes occupations' job tasks, work environment, education and training, pay, outlook, and more. www.bls.gov America's Career InfoNet also has a tool for finding OES wage data by occupation and local area.

Check with your state labor market information office for additional data specific to where you live.

Credentials, experience, and industry of employment might influence wages as well. Actuaries, for example, must pass a series of exams over several years to become fully qualified. When they first start out, they usually work as trainees and have lower wages than experienced actuaries. Gradually, trainees receive higher salaries as they gain credentials.

Even highly educated workers in these occupations might make less if they are in entrylevel positions. For example, biochemists and biophysicists who have a Ph.D. frequently start out in temporary postdoctoral research positions and may increase their earnings as they gain experience.

And in some occupations, wages vary by industry. Economists in banking, for example, had a

WAIT ON THE HONEYMOON? Dear Dave,

DENTAL INSURANCE FOR THE KIDS?

My fiancé and I are getting married in three weeks, but he lost his job as an experienced HVAC technician at a hospital a few days ago. Do you think we should still go on a honeymoon, or wait until things are more stable? I’m on Baby Step 3 of your plan, and I make $56,000 a year. I also have $7,000 in an emergency fund. He was making $64,000 a year, and he’s on Baby Step 2 with about $10,000 in car debt remaining. We have $3,000 already set aside for the trip, plus another $2,000 we were planning to put toward fixing up his place.

Dear Dave,

Corina

Dental insurance is one of those things where it’s easy to see that the payout is greater than the return. We’ve had dental insurance proposed to us at my company several times as an employee benefit, but when you add up what you pay for it you’ll find you rarely spend that much on dentistry. In many cases, I advise self-insuring for dental care.

Dear Corina, First, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I hope you two will have long and happy lives together.

Usually, I’m not a big fan of spending when someone loses a job. But I think your situation is a little different than most. You’re both serious about dumping debt and getting control of your finances. Plus, you’re working together, and you’ve already got a nice chunk of cash parked in the bank. That tells me you’re both wise enough to know the importance of saving.

Your guy can find another job in a couple of weeks, considering his field and experience. Companies everywhere are hiring people right now, and the economy is booming! If he gets out there and really busts it looking for another position leading up to the wedding, I think you two will be fine. He might even be able to work it out to start right after the honeymoon.

You two have some financial padding, his job is an easy one to replace, and his income will be restored soon if he’ll just get out there and make it happen. Go on the honeymoon, and have a wonderful time. God bless you both!

—Dave

Should I keep buying dental insurance for my kids, or is it just a gimmick?

Brenda, Dear Brenda,

Now, there is a dental discount company I highly recommend called 1Dental.com. This kind of thing is worth it. As a member, you get discounted rates on dental work when you visit an in-network provider. I’ve gotten to know the folks behind this organization, too, and they’re great people.

Hope this helps, Brenda!
