    RESUME FORMAT: Don't Get Cute!
    Use a style similar to business letter formatting. Avoid using elaborate headers or multi-column layouts. These kinds of flare DO NOT make you look unique, they make you look unprofessional. If you want to show a bit of your personality, let it peek through in your cover letter. Your resume should serve to provide a structured outline of your qualifications, nothing more. Remember that consistency and simplicity are priorities with your resume. Treat each section the same. Make sure that you use reverse chronological order for all entries. DO NOT prioritize your employment history. Just because something was important to you, does not mean your potential employer will think so. Let them make the decision when reading with no surprises. For instance, you don't want to go from 1997 to 2006, back to 2000. You want to go from 2007 to 2006 to 2005, and so on. No surprises, nothing to hide.

    Corporation - What Is It?
    Simply put, a corporation is a form of business entity. You probably already know this, so this article delves into a few of the particulars.Separate EntityFor legal purposes, a corporation is considered a separate legal entity from those forming it. Although it is not a living person, a corporation generally has the same rights. It can own property, enter contracts and claim constitutional rights. Unluckily, a corporation also must pay taxes like you and me.Unlike each of us, a corporation can “live” for 100 years, 200 years or more. Certain forms of corporations were known to exist as far back as in the days of Ancient Rome. Despite it’s gladiator tendencies towards other companies, Microsoft was not the first corporation.State of IncorporationThese days, state law auth

    Naming Your Start-up: Simple Do's and Don’ts
    The time to start thinking about the ideal name for your new business is at the same time you start putting your business plan on paper. Yes, your business – no matter how small a start-up – should have a written business plan. But that’s another story for another day. For now, let’s look at the most important reason to pick just the right name for your business.If there’s one idea you want to carry with you always, particularly as you evaluate possible names for your business, it’s this: Perception is reality!.How would-be customers will think about your business starts with the impression its name creates in their mind. So think long and hard. Next, they’ll be impressed – or not – by how that name is presented graphically – colors, type style, any accompanying art, perhaps a “tag line”

    Diamond Engagement Rings - So Many Beautiful Choices
    Diamond engagement rings are proudly and traditionally worn by a bride-to-be as a powerful symbol that she is "taken" and will soon be married to her true love. The ring is viewed as an indication of love, faith, fidelity, celebration, and the wealth of the groom. By placing the ring on his soon-to-be-wife, the groom gives the world an outward demonstration that he not only loves his bride, but also can afford to marry her and take her from her father's care. Diamond engagement rings, with their perfect clarity and indestructible nature, have come to symbolize the purity and eternal commitment between a man and his wife.Diamonds are relatively new as gemstones for engagement rings, the result of some very clever marketing by the diamond trade industry about 150 years ago.

    HOW TO DRESS FOR A JOB INTERVIEW: ALWAYS OVER DRESS! (Just a little bit)

    Rule #1: Dress Nicely!
    Set aside an outfit that you know you're comfortable in and makes you feel confident. If the employer does not specify what the dress code is, assume it's BUSINESS CASUAL and plan to dress a little nicer than that!

    Women: Wear dark dress pants and either a sweater, blouse or button down dress shirt. NO JEANS! NOTHING REVEALING! Don't even risk it for a first impression. For shoes, knock yourself out. If you like heels, wear heels. If you like flats, wear flats. NO SNEAKERS, no matter how cool they are! Keep the makeup to a minimum, don't overdo it lady!

    Men: Wear dark dress pants and a button down dress shirt or stylish, lightweight sweater. NO JEANS! NO POLO SHIRTS! For shoes, wear dress shoes, NOT sneakers OR sandals. Remember, if you wear dark grey or black pants, wear a black belt and black shoes. If you wear dark brown or dark green pants wear a brown belt and brown shoes. Chances are you could care less about this sort of thing, but it DOES MATTER (at least for a first impression)! Please remember to shave at least 3 HOURS BEFORE your interview, just in case you knick yourself or you have sensitive skin and are prone to 'raspberries.'

    NOTE: If an employer specifies a very casual dress code, then certainly go with that. Remember to still dress a little bit nicer than you think you should. It always pays off!

    Rule #2: Smell Nice!
    Wear some deodorant for once! If you have a light cologne or perfume you like to wear, put on a little bit, but not too much. Having a nice smell is very underrated in social situations. Furthermore, if an employer turns up the heat, you don't have to worry about getting all hot and bothered. You will, naturally, smell like roses :)

    CONCLUSION

    These tips will help you get started in the right direction. Now go put yourself out there! Set up some interviews and even accept a few interviews you know you don't want. Practice makes perfect and the only way to practice is to be under the microscope in a small office with a peculiar HR person asking you questions and telling you the way it is. But, these situations will prepare you for the interview that goes perfectly, where you can't say the wrong thing and feel respected and wanted. In order for that to happen, you have to be prepared and stay persistent.
