2011 Chili

Sirius Technical Services, Inc. participated in the American Cancer Society's Chili Cook-Off on February 12, 2011 in beautiful downtown Mobile, AL.

They served up some of their award winning chili!

While the team cooked, they raised money to continue the fight for a cure for cancer.

The booth theme this year was "Knock Out Cancer" and everyone sported their boxing gloves and served up chili in a boxing ring!

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this great charity event.

KEN PETERS posing with Arriell Anderson as our FEBRUARY EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH

"Ken has worked for Sirius at numerous client sites. For some reason, when he is brought in for a short term assignment, he is always extended for an open ended duration. It's probably because he does a fantastic job! Thank you Ken for working so hard and we appreciate you very much!" Beverly Ratliff, Client Services Manager.

What's Love Got To Do With It?

Oscar Wilde once stated, "To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance." Love is a mystery and not easily definable. However, it does have certain characteristics. Self-love is a consuming passion for your eternal happiness. It is an ongoing choice you make to be glad to be alive, here on Earth, in your own body. It makes perfect sense that God says...."Love your neighbor as yourself"....if you cannot love and respect yourself, how can you even start loving someone else?

Self-love occurs when you decide who you are and what you want is important. It is an inner state of being which develops as you decide it is all right to build a kind, and meaningful partnership with yourself. Self-love involves deciding to support yourself with encouraging thoughts and empowering self-supportive actions that only benefit your well being. When you truly LOVE yourself and make healthy choices for you....you take responsibility for you and are able to give love to others. Love starts with respect of oneself...if you do not respect yourself, your choices will be toxic in all areas of your life. When we respect ourselves, we are saying we respect God who created us to flourish here on earth and to ignite others to do the same.

  Some examples of self love are:

 

� Self-loving people tend to treat themselves well.

� They see enjoyment of life as a primary goal most of the time.

� They do not remain in mistreatment by others.

� They let themselves succeed.

 

Trust me this is a subject I have struggled with all my life...but I do know this: When I really take the time to "Be Still and KNOW that HE is GOD", I realize how much love He has for each one of us.  We are made in His image, each one of us unique and awesome. Really knowing this will totally shift the way you look at yourself and others.  You represent HIS LOVE to everyone you meet....so take some time this week to look in the mirror and smile at yourself, treat yourself to something special, and watch your life and attitude line up.  MUAH!!!!  www.signaturelives.com by Sandra Ritter


Sweet Resume Tips From the Recruiting Office -
How NOT To Write A Resume!

From Laura Schneider, former About.com Guide


love letterIn a recent poll, technical recruiters and hiring managers asked for the top "pet peeves" - things they see on resumes and cover letters that make them less interested in speaking with a candidate. These make great examples of how not to write your resume.

�  Use of the current "tense" in all jobs on the resume.

�  Writing the resume or cover letter in the third person.

�  Too many grammar and spelling mistakes.

�  Use of tiny, tiny fonts (10 pt or less) so as to cram as much information into the resume as possible.

�  Photos on resumes (this is a cultural preference).

�  A listing of their personal interests and activities.

�  Sending a resume attachment named 41808res.doc - use your name or descriptive label.

�  Writing the resume using table formats (columns).

�  Using a resume that is password protected (without sending the password).

�  Including references - but not professional ones - just friends and co-workers.

�  Having no contact information on the resume or including a phone number that is no longer valid.

�  When a candidate's email address is not appropriate for the work environment. Example: [email protected]

�  Resumes that are too long. Most seem to feel that general descriptions pertaining to work history for the last 10 years is sufficient.

�  Resume stuffing, for example, listing of every software application you've ever touched as a "skill".

�  Education written so its not clear if the degree was obtained.

�  Job hopping, which could be contract positions but it's not explained. (If you have been on short term contracts, make sure you clarify that they are contract jobs).
