Green Tip For The Week



Ecotourism.  For your next vacation idea, check out ecotourism.  Ecotourism has three goals: it helps sustain the environment, the economy, and the culture of the area visited.  These vacations can take many forms, from adventuresome to tranquil - so there is something to please everyone!

The Interview as a Needs Assessment

If you engage your interviewers, and have good answers to their questions, will you get the offer?  Maybe.  To really seal the deal, you need to treat the interview as your chance to conduct a thorough needs assessment.  Show them why they need you and determine if you want them. 

John West Hadley will help you build your interview skills, and help you equip yourself to have much stronger networking conversations.
