An Easy Way to Send Your Resume

Mail services have only become reliable in the last hundred years or so. In the earliest days of communication, there were no official post offices. Traders, fur trappers and merchants carried mail between different towns and forts, and each would establish their own personal prices for stamps.

Now, shipping mail over land feels like an archaic idea. Thankfully, jobseekers today have the opportunity to make use of modern conveniences when it comes to mail (and they can ditch the stamps). If you are looking for an easy way to send your résumé, you are going to need to start looking at the Internet.

Taking Advantage of Email

Hundreds of websites offer email services free of charge. They make money by filling their pages with other interesting content. Many sites that offer email also offer attention-getting headlines, games, social options and other perks designed to get you to look around at the rest of the pages after you have checked your mail. You can take advantage of the free mail to your heart’s content, and chances are you already have. Email today is so ubiquitous; many companies and corporations offer accounts to their employees.

If you haven’t got an email address, you are limiting what you can do with and on the Internet. Many sites require an email address (and little more than that) before allowing people to take advantage of all their services.

Accessing Job Portals

Lots of people regularly hunt for new jobs and opportunities, either to gain new clients or otherwise advance their careers. If you are applying to a lot of jobs (or even just one job) you need an easy way to send your résumé quickly to employers. To make that happen, you are going to need email (but sometimes email alone may not be enough).

Utilizing Fax Technology

Few individuals have a fax machine in their home offices, but many employers ask applicants to send a faxed copy of resumes. But you don’t have to run right out and buy a new machine, or run around trying to find a business which will fax your résumé for you.
The Internet offers some of the best fax technologies. Accessing the best email faxing with Metrofax, you will be able to send your resume in .PDF form to potential employers quickly and easily. MetroFax services are just as easy as sending an email, and all you need to get started is an email address.

Your time is valuable, especially when you are working on getting a job. You have to send resumes, but you also have to be aware of how much time it takes to do so. Email faxing makes it easy for you to get your name and information out there without ever leaving the comforts of your home.

Jobs That Can Surely Pay for Your Rent

The cost of living is constantly rising, but that doesn’t mean jobs are paying any more money than they used to. If you want to be prepared to live in the 21st century, the following are some of the best jobs that can surely pay for your rent.

• Doctor: All doctors get paid a good salary, but the highest paid doctors are surgeons and obstetricians. Anesthesiologists also do well on the pay scale, though. The medical field is a stable career choice because people are always going to get sick and need attention.

• Dentist: Regular dentists make really good money, but orthodontists and prosthodontists bring in even more because they perform more complicated procedures.

• Lawyer: In general, lawyers make good money, but the highest paid lawyers are class action lawyers or personal injury lawyers. This is mainly because these types of lawsuits have a higher payout than most civil cases.

• College Professor: Professors make a lot of money, but it is slightly based on the field they teach in. For instance, medical professors do a lot better than English professors.

It doesn’t matter if you are looking at apartments in charlotte nc or Hong Kong, any job on this list will surely pay for your rent. The problem is that each of these jobs requires 8+ years of schooling and additional training beyond that. If you want a high paying job but don’t want to spend a large portion of your life in school to get there, consider the following jobs.

• Entrepreneur: Business owners can make a lot of money, but their success depends on a wide variety of factors. Some of the highest paid individuals, like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, never graduated from college.

• Professional Athlete: Athletes can make millions each year, which makes them some of the highest paid individuals in the workforce. Plus, a great thing about being a professional athlete is that they only have to work for a few years, and then they’re set for life. Professional athletes retire at a young age and live off of their earnings.

• Real Estate Broker: There is a lot of money in real estate, especially if you can become good at flipping houses. It is an exciting career to pursue that can be very lucrative without countless years in school.

• Actor/Actress: If you are good at acting, this might be the best route to fame and fortune. Good actors bring in more money each year than any of the jobs that require you to go to school. It is extremely difficult, however, to catch a break in the entertainment industry. Having connections is your best route.

Going to school is the safest route to earning a high salary, but it definitely isn’t the only option. Explore your interests and you will be able to find a career that can pay for your rent, and give you plenty of extras, too.

Fulfilling Work

I can’t blog enough how much I love my clients. Most of them have been with me for 6 years while others continue to spread my services through word of mouth. One of them, who owns a shop selling burton snowboards and other hiking stuff just sent me a box filled with all kinds of locally made stuff like jams, spreads and clothing. I was so happy to receive it not just because I love gifts (no surprise there) but also because it felt like I’ve been to their country because of the presents. I love receiving / buying items from different places during travels and that also applies to anything sent to me overseas. Anyway – my clients is one of the many reasons why I do what I do. Making them happy is my job and I’m glad that I meet that requirement, all the time.

High from Shopping

My client had me buy acid cigars online as gift for his business associates. It was a great start to my work day – shopping. Even if it wasn’t for me, I still get a certain high adding items to the cart. Nothing can wake me better than a quick shopping spree regardless if it’s online or offline. Well, scratch that. The best thing that can wake or pick me up would be shopping for my own stuff. But this will do for now. Enough for me to last a whole day’s work.

Another WAHM

I knew my friend will not have a problem choosing between several Medical Transcriptionist Jobs that are available online. She’s a good transcriptionist and I know that the right company is just within reach. Her decision to stay at home to take care of her 5 month old son is her best so far. She can now take jobs and work from the comforts of her house and still manage to look after her baby. Working from home is not for everybody but knowing how focused she can be, I’m sure she will love it just like I do.

Researching For Hours

Researching for a client today but my mind got stuck on the keywords per stirpes so I’ve decided to take a breather. Writing and researching takes a toll on my work hours and as much as possible, I’d rather stay away from it. However, the clients that I work with are usually the same clients that lets me manage everything that has to do with their online presence. It’s a packaged deal so I just do what I have to. I just need to get something to eat, a bacon sandwich perhaps then window shop for 30 minutes then I’ll be all set to research again.

Discounted Office Supplies

Thanks to online coupons, I was able to purchase several hp laserjet ink cartridges for one of my clients. He decided to print our brochures in his office using his HP printer so we need all the ink we can get. After testing the colors on actual prints, I could safely say that we are good to print at least 500 pieces by the end of the week. He will hire his 13-year-old nephew to fold them. It may take longer but he’s saving about $400 based on the actual quotes that we got so far. I’m glad I don’t live near his place or else, he’ll probably have me folding and mailing them as well. But I’m glad he managed to save a lot. With start-up businesses such as his, it’s important to save whenever you can.

My Home Office – In Progress

Just finished listing the office supplies that I need to purchase before June. I am slowly turning a corner of our room into an actual office space so I want to make sure that I have everything that I need aside from my computer table and chair. There are tons of organizer sets that are designed to maximize space plus more shelves for the walls. Our room isn’t that big but it’s spacious enough that we can have a small sofa plus a small office space. However, my goal is to have something similar to these:

The grass is always greener

I see a lot of management jobs which makes me wonder if I should go out and look for a corporate job. I do love working from home and the flexibility and convenience but face it, there’s a small chance of ever climbing the corporate ladder. I miss being promoted almost every year. The taste of success is similar to acquiring a designer bag at a very good price (for me, at least). Yet I’m not sure if in the long run, I would crave for the same position that I’m in right now. Waking up late to work because I don’t have to travel, being with the kids 24/7 and yet still be able to earn money and choosing when to work the whole day. Most of the time, you can’t have everything that you want.

Work stuff: Calling it a day

Just finished my last task for the day, which is document scanning. Thank God, I was able to borrow a scanner from my mother-in-law since the one that my brother promised to lend me didn’t work out. I know I’d get a negative feedback if I didn’t finish this project that I bid on.

On a related note, I’m glad that all my designs projects are done. Whenever I finish a new design, I sigh happily and enjoy the hours until I hear back from the client. Usually, it lasts up to three days so I always get some time off to save up on creative juice.
