Imagine a giant fruit and veg market supplying a major city. One that works really badly. Totally *****.

This market only opens at night and there are no lights to guide the thousands trying to find what they need. It has many hundreds of separate halls, each selling only a few things – some only sell root vegetables, others just stone fruit. And maybe 10 have apples.Now, you’re trying to find small green cooking apples. One hall, somewhere, has these.

Each of the hundreds of halls is completely separate from all the others and when you go to one, the wholesalers only tell you about what they have to sell. The people stumbling around in the dark have no idea what they’ll find in each sealed hall until they open the door and walk inside – what a waste of time.

Who owns these ‘halls’ in perhaps the most important market place in any country, the jobs market? Three types exist:

1. Recruitment agencies, there are thousands and each has a few jobs and a few candidates for sale – usually not exclusive to just their agency.

2. The many different newspapers with job ads in particular industries or sectors.

3. Finally, lots of job boards and many community sites that host jobs.

Total chaos.

There is a better market place and it’s here today – one that is brightly lit, fast and user friendly. It’s job boards – seek.com.au and mycareer.com.au. They will work if we stop sabotaging them with the thousands of other ‘halls’ that just get in the way.

Without all the clutter of newspaper ads and too many recruiters, you will find the ‘green apple suppliers’ in a few seconds: and then start the real job – spending time finding the best at a good price.

200 Australians have it in their power to make it happen now: the senior people in HR. A few more in the United States and the UK, but still a small number of people. Forward this article to them, start making a difference.

Worth it? You do the maths – millions are in the wrong jobs and companies are screaming for skills.

job hunting tips
Jim Johnson asked:


Moving is often regarded as one of the most stressful events in a persons life. And that may be true, but the process of house hunting need not be very stressful at all. If you approach house hunting in a logical and organized way, the process usually goes much smoother and easier. So here are some house hunting tips and ideas for you to consider.

The very first consideration to be made when you’re planning a move is the location or general area to which you’re going. Try to get to know as much as you possibly can about it in advance. If you either have a family or are planning one in the future, get to know the schools in the area and try to move into a school district that has a good reputation for education. Consider also how close and convenient your home would be to shopping centers, medical facilities and so on. And don’t forget about your job. How much time would it take for you to commute to your work from that location or area?

If you know someone in law enforcement, you can often find out a lot about the crime rate in a particular area by just asking them. Sometimes they can steer you away from certain parts of the area that tend to have more problems.

It’s also a good idea to just drive through the general area and get a good feel for the kind of houses that are available there. Quite often, you can tell a lot about the quality of the householders by just taking a good look at the condition of their homes and properties from the outside.

Now that you have a good idea of the location that you prefer, it’s time to start seriously thinking about what kind of home will work best for you. Here is where taking a little time to sit down and write out your needs and wants can help you focus in like a laser on the house that will fit you best. Make a list of all the important features including how many bedrooms you need, what size garage, how much square footage should be in the home, whether or not you will need a fenced in yard, and so on.

Before even starting to look for your dream home, now is the time to line up your financing arrangements. Shop around and find a lending institution that will give you your best mortgage deal. By getting pre-qualified for a home loan, you will be able to know exactly how much house you can afford, and will be in a better position to put in an offer when you find it.

Now it is time to actually get out and go find the home of your dreams. Expect that your house hunting adventure will take quite a bit of time, and don’t try to rush it or get impatient in the process. Here is where having a good real estate agent to represent you can be a big help. So ask around among your family and friends, and most likely you will get some good suggestions on reliable, trustworthy real estate agents that have good reputations.

As you arrange to visit various homes or open houses, another good idea is to take along with you a notepad and make careful notes about the important details of each home that you visit to help you recall the information later on. This is very important as you will no doubt visit quite a few homes in your house hunting endeavor, and they can get very confusing unless you have a way to keep it all straight.

By following this procedure, you can bring some organization and order to a process that can easily become very haphazard and difficult. But if you use the suggestions provided above, they can most likely help you find the home you want quickly and easily.
