PET OF THE WEEK
Shyla Animal ID: 87042 Name: Shyla Age: 8 years Sex: Female Species: Dog Breed: Cocker Spaniel Color: Tan
Included in the adoption fee:
- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption) - Microchipping - First set of vaccines - Complimentary post-adoption vet exam - And so much more!
I’m Shyla. My past is a mystery, as I arrived at the shelter as a stray. The nice people here quickly realized I was having some struggles, as I kept wandering into walls and shaking my head. Since then, it’s been discovered that I am completely blind with irreversible “eye” issues. I recently had both eyes removed, and despite the surgery, I’m in great spirits! I am a friendly tail-wagger who loves to be with people; snuggling is pretty much my favourite activity, and I warmly greet all visitors to my room. I am not opposed to some good old fashioned playtime too — I also enjoy using my nose to explore the world out on walks. If a cuddlebug is in the cards for you, come meet me! I promise to be a faithful, loyal, loving companion to the lucky human who takes me home.

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I attended a job fair recently and I didn’t get any call backs for interviews. Am I doing something wrong? Signed, Confused ©iStockphoto/gstudio
Dear Confused: It’s hard to guess why you haven’t heard back, but some job seekers do not use job fairs to their full advantage. I have attended a number of job fairs and used the opportunity to ask employers what tips they would give job seekers.
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
Here are some great job fair tips and a few pointers from employers for your next job fair. Before the fair: • Find out which employers will be there and learn a little about what they do and what positions they are trying to fill. • Update your resumé, have someone proofread it, and print at least 20 copies on good-quality paper. Use a folder to protect your resumés from creases and stains. • Prepare a 15-second introduction that tells the employer what kind of job you are looking for along with your key skills and experience. Practice your introduction before you go and be ready to sell yourself. • Dress like you are going to a job interview— the people you talk to may be making the hiring decision or might want to interview you on the spot. At the fair: • Arrive early so you can visit the employers you are most interested in first. Visit the remaining employers afterward and keep an open mind—you might discover an exciting new career direction. • Use your time well. If you are waiting in line to talk to an employer, try to listen to what the employer is saying to other job seekers. • Always behave as though your future boss is watching you. Be polite to other job seekers, considerate of each employer's time, and don't talk on your mobile phone while waiting in line for an employer. • Greet the recruiter with a smile and a firm handshake. Be friendly, enthusiastic and ready to ask and answer questions. • Do not just hand in your resumé—you can do that via e-mail. This is your chance to put a face and personality to your resumé and start building a relationship. • Do not call in sick to your current job to attend the job fair — your current employer might be there too—this has happened before. • Do not show up at the job fair in your current employer’s uniform—most employers assume you will treat them the same way you treat your current employer. • Ask what the next step is in the hiring process to show your interest and enthusiasm. • Collect business cards and send a “thank you” e-mail or note re-stating your interest in the position and your qualifications. You can find out about upcoming job fairs at humanservices.alberta.ca/jobfairs or by following local Alberta Works Facebook pages at humanservices.alberta.ca/socialmedia. Good luck at your next job fair!
