The Difference Between a Cover Letter and a Resume

The Difference Between a Cover Letter and a ResumeThe Difference Between a Cover Letter and a ResumeWhats the difference between a resume and a titelseite letter? Both a cover letter and a resume share the common purpose of proving that you have the right skills to excel at the job for which you are applying. However, there are clear distinctions between the structure and intent of the two documents. Job seekers should view their cover letter and resume as a complementary but unique pair of documents. That is, your cover letter should be more than just bullet points regurgitated from the resume. Many employers require that a resume issubmitted with a job application. A cover letter may not be required. But,including one when you apply for a jobcan help your chances of getting selected for an interview. The Difference Between a Resume and a Cover Letter You can think of your resume as a general summary of your work experience and your cover letter as a summary of your work experie nce as it relates to the job at hand. Aresumeis a document that itemizes your employment history. It summarizes the jobs you have held, the education you have attained, certifications, skills, and other quantifiable information about your background and work experience. The fruchtwein commonresume formatis a list with your contact information, anexperience sectionthat includes job titles, position descriptions, dates of employment, aneducation section, and other relevant information. Typically, a resume is written in the third person and uses as few words as possible to summarize the experience. So, instead of writing I supervised the large buying team at XYZ company a resume would have a bullet point that says, Supervised 19-person buying team. Whenever possible, youll want touse numbers on your resume, such as the number of people you supervised, percent sales increased, the number of customers helped, etc. Acover letteris written to highlight the qualifications you have for the j obfor which you are applying. It is used to provide the employer with additional information as to why you are a good candidate for the job. The main function of your cover letter is to show off how your qualification makes you a match for the job. A cover letter is written in aletter formatincluding a salutation, several paragraphs, and a closing. Unlike a resume, you should use the first-person to write your cover letter. (That said, avoid using I too much.) What a Resume Includes Your resume should provide employers with a detailed list of your work experience and education. The skills and accomplishments associated with each job you have held should be described in enough detail to show employers how you have added value in those specific roles. Often, resumes provide information in bulleted lists this helps make the document concise and allows recruiters to scan through it quickly. What a Cover Letter Includes A cover letter is a short three or four paragraph document.I t should be written with the assumption that employers will consult your resume to match it to the statement you are making in the letter about your qualifications. A cover letter will help employers to interpret your background as represented on the resume and will help prove how your previous experiences qualify you for a job. When you are writing a cover letter for a job, firstreview the job requirementsthat are detailed in the job posting. Use your cover letter to explain how you meet those criteria. Use a Cover Letter to Convey Subjective Information A resume states the facts who, what, when, and how. In contrast, a cover letter provides an opportunity to explain why you are qualified for the job. This document adds a bit of color and personality and is intended to persuade employers that youre a good fit for the position at hand. A cover letter is a better vehicle than a resume to convey more subjective information like the grund of your interest in a position, how your v alues motivate you to pursue a job, or why the culture of a company appeals to you. Your cover letters will help yousell your qualifications to prospective employerswhile your resume provides the details to back up the information included in your letters.

How to Get Through a Really Bad Week at Work -The Muse

How to Get Through a Really Bad Week at Work -The MuseHow to Get Through a Really Bad Week at Work The past few weeks have been tougher than normal for me at work. And in full transparency, as Im writing this article, I want notlagehing more than to go to bed for 36 hours. Its not because I hate my job. In fact, I happen to like what I do. And yet, I still cant help but look at my laptop screen with glazed-over eyes and see nothing but a blurry Word document. If theres one thing that everyone who goes to work will ever have in common, its that some weeks will be tougher than others. While thats not necessarily the easiest thing to accept, it is important to know. If youre currently in a rough patch, Ive compiled my three best tips for helping you cope. 1. Identify Whats Making it So ToughBad week at work often goes hand-in-hand with I cant get anything right this week. And many times thats because youre currently struggling with something- whether thats a stressful project, a micro managing colleague, or a computer that keeps crashing. While identifying exactly whats upsetting you wont resolve it immediately, just pinpointing it can make you feel a little bit better. Because you can then decide if theres a fix for the situation. If so, go after itAnd if not theres not a fix, then you can hopefully at least put an end date on it- like when your projects finally over or a new computer arriving. Or at the very least, Friday almost being here. 2. Confide in Your BossOK, sometimes this just isnt possible because your boss is the worst. But if you dont work for a complete monster, your managers probably aware of the fact that parte of her job is to make sure you have everything you need to succeed. If that happens to be a venting session about how the week has gone down, so be it. You might be surprised to see what happens after you open up. Maybe nothing, but maybe deadlines can be moved, or tasks can be delegated elsewhere, or youll find an extra slice of leftover birthday cake at your desk. I know- you want to do such a good job that everyone you work with knows that you can be trusted with anything. And thats really admirable. However, the reality is that even the most talented people need a helping hand occasionally. And that includes you. 3. Avoid Being Too Hard on YourselfTheres probably at least a small part of you who wants to harp on all the things you did to make this week difficult. After all, you have all the control in this situation, right? Well, not always. Sometimes you just have a packed calendar with meetings on meeting. And other times, work is just tough. Sure, if you make a mistake, you should fess up and take the appropriate steps. But on weeks when it feels like you just cant catch a break, its important to take a step back and remind yourself that there are things you simply cannot control. Sometimes even the best jobs can feel like, well, work. And some weeks are going to be harder than others. You cant control everyt hing, but you can rethink the way you cope with a particularly difficult stretch. And if nothing else, youre only getting closer to Friday.Photo of person stressed courtesy of Georgijevic/Getty Images.

IoT Puts a New Spin

IoT Puts a New Spin IoT Puts a New Spin IoT Puts a New SpinAs anyone who ever had a bearing fail knows, durability counts. So, imagine the reaction of bearing engineers and tribologists at a recent Bearing World conference when a keynote speaker from one of the worlds largest bearing makers announced that predictability is more important than longer bearing life.The researchers in the audience had spent years modeling the interaction of moving parts, loads, and wear to model bearing lifespans, keynoter Victoria familienkutsche Camp, SKF Groups president for innovation and business development, recalled.So, what if we could combine those models with real-time data on bearing performance? she asked. It would be difficult, but then we could say, I know for a fact that this bearing will fail next week, rather than say, 10 percent of these bearings will fail within a certain timeframe.?While some researchers argued that this was impossible, van Camp was adamant This has to become the norm , because no one should accept a failed bearing shutting down a factory. The Industrial Internet of Things makes it possible to monitor machine condition by integrating bearing software with machine and factory software. Image NTTHer vision goes far beyond condition monitoring done in many factories today. By harnessing the Internet of Things(IoT) and other Industry 4.0 technologieslow-cost sensors, Big Data analytics, and machine learningSKF and its competitors want to catapult one of the worlds oldest mechanical devices into the digital future.In fact, bearings are emerging as a poster child for Industry 4.0. Yet this heady mixture of digital technology and physical products is also disrupting how companies monitor, operate, and tafelgeschirr rotating equipment the way they sell and service products and who they lebenspartner with and compete against.SKF has embraced this disruption. In the past, the company sold bearings, lubricating ordnungsprinzips, and related p roducts. It also provided services that range from rebuilding worn and damaged bearings to monitoring the condition of several million bearings around the world.Today, SKF is using that crucial dataand its research into bearing failureto sell reliable rotation as a service.The most expensive event in a factory is when a bearing fails in a critical machine and shuts everything down, van Camp explained.By turning unexpected failures into planned maintenance, van Camp promises to lower costs and boost factory output. But she wants a share of those additional profits.If we sell bearings as pieces of steel, its hard to get a fair share of their value, she said. Instead, we want to pick the right bearing and lubrication system for each application, monitor them, and take the right remedy action when there is a problem. We want to negotiate key performance indicators with our customers and get paid for meeting them. This is the business model that our company is betting on, van Camp said.S KF is not the only company seeking to sell mechanical products as services. Rolls Royce and its aircraft engine competitor, General Electric, get paid on operating time. So, do companies in other industries, such as Boeing, Valmet, and Caterpillar.Yet digital disruption slices both ways. It enables SKF to bind itself more tightly to customers but exposes it to moreand sometimes very differentpartners and competitors.Predictive MaintenanceHow did bearings become the spear tip of the IoT revolution?They are, after all, among the oldest mechanical devices. Bearings were used in hand drills in ancient Egypt and revolving tables in the Roman Empire. Today, they go into everything from pumps, fans, engines, and milling machines to wind turbines, ore crushers, and paper manufacturing machines.They get their anthroponym from bearing the load of a rotating shaft. In a simple bearing, the inner ring spins with the shaft and transmits its load through rotating balls or cylinders to an anchored outer ring that takes the shafts weight and torque.Industrial bearings are custom designed for each application. They consist of hard, finely machined metals that roll easily and resist wear, elastomeric seals to prevent contamination, and lubricants to reduce friction.They fail in many ways. Sometimes, they are damaged (often with a hammer) or misaligned during installation. Seals get punctured or eaten away by chemicals. Operators run machines too fast or cut an alloy or crush ore with different hardnesses or chemical compositions. Even lubricant can be an enemy if operators use too little, too much, or the wrong type.Before they fail, bearings emit cries for help. Each mode of failure has a distinct sound. By listening to those sounds with a vibration monitorwhile monitoring heat, torque, and rotating speedresearchers can estimate how long a bearing has left.This is called condition monitoring. First, engineers calculate the frequencies to watch from the bearings geometry. Then they try to isolate those frequencies while suppressing the noise militrischer abschirmdienste by other bearings and moving parts inside a machine.A large paper mill, for example, might have hundreds of rotating parts. It takes a combination of sensors and algorithms to get it right.SKF got into the business when it purchased a pioneer in the field, Palomar Technology, in 1989. As van Camp noted, it now monitors millions of bearings. Yet condition monitoring has its limits.You could look at vibration and draw conclusions about whether to stop now or continue to operate, but you couldnt really say how much longer, she said.To do that, we need more data about the process. For example, if it is an ore crusher, we needed to know what type of rocks they were crushing, the sizes going in and out, and the loads. For a paper plant, we needed the wood content and its flatness, which means different things depending on the process.With all that process data, we can abflug making accurate pred ictions.We can tell a miner how long the crusher will operate or to crush smaller rocks to run longer. We can tell how long a cutting machine can run before it ruins a part, she added.And when a bearing needs replacement or maintenance, we can tell what kind of maintenance it will need and connect back to our supply chain to have those parts ready. If we see a recurring problem, we can redesign the bearing to fix it, van Camp said.As the number of sensors it monitors has grown larger, SKF has turned to machine learningto find hidden patterns. According to van Camp, the data are too great for humans to discern those patterns. Machine learning does that well and comes without the prejudices of engineers who look for problems only where they expect to see them.SKF provides customers with software, including apps that help install and analyze bearings. It also makes portable vibration testers, which technicians use like a stethoscope to take the pulse of individual machines during walk- by inspections.In larger factories, embedded sensors eavesdrop on bearings in critical machinery. This data may go to an SKF monitoring center or to a factorys control system.Weve publicly announced a partnership with Honeywell, but we work with several other main control system players, van Camp said.The same is true with machine makers, who also want to offer condition monitoring services.Where we fit in is as a service or knowledge partner with rotating equipment, she said. If youre producing gear boxes, you dont have to be a bearing expert. Leave it to us. We work to build our intelligence into their software, so users dont have 10 different screens to look at.In exchange, we provide the bearings and the maintenance on them, and they do the services theyre good at, like winding motors or building machines, van Camp said. We cannot give this away because we do not want to become the Red Cross for bearings.A New LandscapeSKF is not the only company trying to shake up the industry. Schaeffler Group, Germanys largest bearing maker, recently signed a deal with IBM to use Watson technology and the cloud to monitor and analyze its bearings under operating conditions and opened a Silicon Valley research center to tap the regions disruptive energy.It also became the second company, after SKF, to embed sensors within a bearing. This is an impressive achievement, since the chip-based sensors must retain power and function flawlessly for years inside a dirty and aggressive environment. The payoff is greater accuracy and better predictions.Other large producers of industrial bearings are following the same path. Surprisingly, so is Germanys igus, a producer of self-lubricating plastic bearings used in applications with lower loads.You dont need to have a complicated system of electronics to monitor our bearings, said Richard Habering, who heads the companys new smart plastics division.One way is to measure the thickness of a bearing wall. Another is to embed a wire in a bearing when enough of the bearing wears away, the wire closes a circuit that sends a warning.In most of our bearings, the gliding part is changeable, Habering said. If you wait too long, you can destroy the shaft and the bearing. But do it too early and you lose money by replacing a bearing that could run longer.In addition to traditional competitors, SKFs digital journey has put in competition with traditional control system companies, such as Emerson Electric. Like SKF, Emerson also bought a condition monitoring company, Computer Systems Inc., in 1995. The two competitors, however, have very different value propositions.Instead of the bearing level, were looking at the facility level, said Jacob Swafford, Emersons senior manager of sales development. Our focus is much broader.SKF has strong analytics, he explained. But it can also pull a bearing out of a machine, determine the root cause of failure, recommend improvements, and repair or replace the bearing.I could argue that ou r technology is just as deep or deeper, but we chose to go the other way, he said. We look at things more holistically.Emersons goal is to aggregate data from bearingsand other machines and componentsrun high-level analytics on it, and help customers use that information to make step changes in plant operations and productivity.Honeywell has both large and small customers. While many large facilities take condition monitoring seriously, many smaller facilities often seek help only after a machine failure hurts their business.Digital technology, and especially the mad scramble to plug into the IoT, also brings out some unexpected partners and competitors. One is NTT DATA Services, a $22 billion subsidiary of the Japanese telecommunications giant Nippon Telegraph Telephone (NTT).So, how much does NTT know about running a factory?Data centers are an amazing example of monitoring and controlling physical assets, said Siddharth Sharma, vice president of industry solutions for NTTs manuf acturing team.In addition to stand-alone data centers, the company operates factory IT systems around the world, and is on 70 percent of the shop floors in Japan. Branching into the industrial IoT is a logical extension of that business.Sharma makes a strong case. His team consists of experienced factory IT engineers who understand how to collaborate with customers on instrumenting bearings and machinery. NTT develops its own machine learning algorithms and builds several types of factory sensors.Like Emerson, it understands how to aggregate data to provide its own monitoring and predictive maintenance. In fact, Sharma said the company is considering building command centers for the likes of John Deere. And it has vast experience integrating factory data into control systems and corporate enterprise software, such as SAP.Yet, even as digital technologies are turning the factory floor into a free-for-all of competing technologies, bearing manufacturersand companies like themhave a ke y advantage. They have built them, pulled them apart, and analyzed how and why they fail. Software that embeds that knowledge and makes it easy for companies to access gives them an edge.As van Camp noted, Data analysis and visualization and the ability to draw conclusions and to take the right remedy action is where SKF is unique and provide real value to customers.

Im a neurosurgeon, and the best morning routine Ive found only consists of 3 simple steps

Im a neurosurgeon, and the best morning routine Ive found only consists of 3 simple stepsIm a neurosurgeon, and the best morning routine Ive found only consists of 3 simple stepsIts easy to feel overwhelmed when juggling career and work demands, family time, relationships, and other obligations.If you feel like youre constantly playing catch-up with no time to achieve personal or professional fulfillment, its possible to turn it all around by changing one thing about your day your morning routine.Theres a reason successful people tend to be early risers- think Tim Cook or Oprah. The quiet early morning hours are a key time for focusing on a set of routines that start your day off right, before the rest of the world wakes up and has the potential to throw you off course. If your morning routine isnt designed to maximize productivity, then youre missing an opportunity to boost your wertmiger zuwachs in both life and business.As a busy neurosurgeon, wrestling coach, author, speaker, an d dad, my morning routine is the secret to my success. It consists of only three simple steps that set the rest of my day up for productivity - I call it my triple threat1. MeditatingI awake each day at 500 a.m. and meditate for 10 minutes, without fail. This is a non-negotiable self-care aspect of my day, which is why it comes before everything else.I was fortunate to learn transcendental meditation- which involves silently reciting a mantra over and over - from instructors John Hanlon and Dean Sluyter, whos author of several outstanding books and audio meditations, at the Pingry School back in 1980. However, over the years, my technique has changed to natural meditation- which does leid require the use of a mantra. It is more centered on quiet inactivity.Meditation - or mindfulness practices - can help reduce your stress levels and avoid burnout, improve your mental health and well-being, boost your creativity levels, enhance your capacity for empathy, improve sleep and so m uch more.Try at least 10 minutes of meditation to start your day and discover what it enhances in your life.2. FilingThis sounds like a real 180-degree turn, right? Going from relaxing and focus-enhancing meditation tofiling? Hear me out.Ive created a personal file system labeled for each day of the month, and every day has one task in that file. When something pops up during my day thats not urgent, I file it away in this system and dont think about it again until its designated day. For example, I might wake up one morning, check my file, and see that todays task is to write a thank-you note to a friend. I can check this off my list and move on with my day.Create a similar daily filing system for yourself to remove the stress of all of the little to-dos that can easily pile up and overwhelm you.3. PlanningStarting your day without a set plan is like running a race with no idea of the route or destination You might get there eventually, but youre going to be stressed, exhausted, an d certainly lagging behind everyone else.Thats why the third element to my triple threat morning routine is consulting my day planner and making a list of everything I need to get done that day before it all has a chance of going sideways. Though most things have gone digital these days, I personally use a classic paper Franklin planner. There are benefits to keeping a paper day planner, including increased mindfulness and memory retention.Mapping out your day before it begins each morning doesnt mean it wont go off course, but it will help keep you focused on your goals and give you a better shot of actually achieving them.Lastly, try different morning routines until you land on one that works for you. While it doesnt have to be complicated, it does need to be intentional and tailored to your needs in reservierung to help you have a more productive, successful day.Dr. Mark McLaughlin, MD, practices neurological surgery at Princeton Brain and Spine Care and believes that we can all use the core principles behind brain surgery and apply them to our daily lives. His mission is to utilize the lessons he has learned from his career to help others manage stressful situations and engage with problem-solving.This article was originally posted on BusinessInsider.com.

For women, the primary motivators are a passion, flexible hours, and the desire to change the world. This makes sense coupled with an independent statistic that reported women are more likely to launch businesses in retail, health care, and education. For men, the principal objectives are becoming their own boss, making more money, and obtaining more ownership and responsibility.Practical concerns are also indebted to these factors.

Work-Life Balance - Juggling Glass and Rubber Balls

Work-Life Balance - Juggling Glass and Rubber BallsWork-Life Balance - Juggling Glass and Rubber BallsA number of years ago, Bryan Dyson, then the President and CEO of Coca-Cola Enterprises, delivered a commencement speech at Georgia Tech. In it, he discussed the difference between glass and rubber balls. His insight is as valuable today as it was then. Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them - work, family, health, friends and spirit - and youre keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. I love that Dyson singles out what is most important in life. There are indeed priorities, and f ew would disagree over the importance of family, health, friends and spirit. It is the work topic and this issue of balance that gives me and many other executives and professionals cause to pause. Balance is relative to the individual. My allocation of time at my vocation might seem excessive to you, but it works for me and in my mind, I am in balance.The implication that work is bad or less than good is troubling. Our work is very personal. If you are involved in work that you love, well as the old adage goes, it never feels like work.Achieving a universally agreeable definition in a firm over the theme of work-life balance is singularly one of the most difficult tasks I have encountered in my professional life. What Exactly is Work-Life Balance? A short time ago, I was involved in helping an organization formally articulate core values. There were unspoken values just as there are in every organization. However, prompted by growth and a concern about codifying the culture an d aspirational behaviors for all current and future employees, the values initiative was established. After employee meetings and ample opportunities for input, a set of values statements was crafted and given to the employees for review and revision. The proposed final set came back with one of the value statements reading We support work-life balance. And then the initiative ground to a halt. There was no agreement on what that statement truly meant and what it looked like in practice. As stated above, every person interpreted the topic of balance through their own filters. For some, balance meant unencumbered flexibility to come and go. For others, it meant never checking email on the weekend. And for those who truly enjoyed their long days and weeks, it felt like a slap in the face. The firm had a conundrum on its hands, and it was bedrngnis until a creative employee suggested a one-word change that the issue was resolved. The Real Issue Is Work-Life Flexibility The proposa l was to change the word balance to flexibility. The new statement would read We support work-life flexibility. While a case can be made for the ambiguous nature of the term, flexibility, some added context helped immeasurably. Flexibility was described as the ability to adjust work hours to lifes needs, including family and recreation, as long as the work was covered and no one was disadvantaged. If you were committed to coaching your daughters soccer gruppe on Tuesday afternoons after 300 p.m., you simply had to arrange your work and meeting schedule to accommodate your coaching demands. A series of similar type examples was identified and the management team and employees accepted the change and moved forward. While we do not all have the luxury of working in an enlightened atmosphere where the employees define the values and the issue of work life and personal life are part of those values, you must define your own priorities and strive for the balance that is appropriate for yo u. Yes, the Rubber Ball Is Important Back to Dysons rubber ball metaphor for work. We spend a great deal of our time involved in working in our lives. It is not something we should drop easily, and given the state of the world today change and uncertainty, it does not always bounce back. We are well-served to look at work as well as the other aspects of our life as something important and worthy of protecting. Beware Extremes and Respect All of Lifes Priorities It is not uncommon for individuals to take their jobs so seriously, their own personal identities become wrapped up in their titles and power. If and when something eliminates that title and power a merger or a downsizing, the impact is crushing for anyone who defined themselves as their work persona. This extreme is unhealthy and jeopardizes your ability to secure and protect any of Dysons life priorities or glass balls. The Bottom Line What I love about Dysons message is that it does single out those important a ttributes in our life family, spirit, health, friends and work. Treat all of them with the care and respect they deserve. Treat them like delicate glass balls and focus on achieving a state of mind and activity where they all feel right and proper. Call it balance if you will, but strive to get there. Updated by Art Petty
