Questions and answers from the workplace

In day to day, the vast majority of people who are looking for work, or are simply immersed in the labor market, a large number of questions related to the workplace arise. Does it happen to you too? In this post we will try to answer questions from the workplace.

questions about the workplace

Start with these questions

Start by asking yourself questions: What am I doing right? What do I like to do? Based on your answers, you'll know where to start looking. If you don't like what you find, don't worry, there is always time to change. The key is to never lose curiosity.

How can I know what I like if I haven't worked yet?

I think we have all asked ourselves this question at some point during the beginning of our working life. The answer is much simpler than it seems.

How to get back into the job market after a big break?

Many times we find in resumes with gaps very large storms. Take the opportunity to explain what you have done in this interval and what it has contributed to you. It doesn't matter if you have been taking the exam, taking care of your children, or taking a trip around the world.

What skills have you developed that can differentiate you from other people who are looking for a job? Expose them and integrate them into your speech.

How to say that I have been fired in interviews?

The dismissal It is the great taboo in working society. Sometimes the person associates it with being a bad worker, it generates complexes and shame.

If they ask you in an interview why you ended up in the job you didn't fit into, state the reason for dismissal in a natural way and don't give it more importance than the interviewer himself. It's much more normal than it seems. 

Is it good to send the CV to the person who manages a job offer?

Depends. It is good if the submission is accompanied by a personalized message that explains why you are interested in the job you are applying for and if you take advantage of the thread to demonstrate what you can contribute more than other candidates. What we do not recommend is that you do spam.

questions about the workplace

I want a salary increase. How do I ask for it?

It is very important to have patience and finding the right moment in which your manager has time to listen to each other. Before finding the time, think about your achievements within the company, review the fulfillment of your objectives, compare salaries for your position in competing companies, and create an eloquent speech taking great care of communication.

If the answer is not what you expect, listen to the reasons carefully, try to be assertive, and evaluate the response, since it can be a key moment to analyze your career in the company.
