A winning resume presents your experience in a way that indicates your future potential. It grabs and holds the attention of the reader and makes him or her want to know more. To know more requires a conversation and that conversation is an interview.
Simply stated, a resume is an interview-generation tool, and like any tool, it must be well-cared for and appropriate to the task. How well does your resume measure up to that standard?

Everyone loves a good BBQ or cookout, and it seems like Memorial Day weekend has become the official launch of the summer food season. You see grilling segments on the news, picnic and barbecue products on sale at the stores, and recipes galore to serve at your outdoor celebrations.

The importance of an hour is certainly impacted by what is happening and how I feel about it. To get the most out of my 168, I need to invest some time in figuring out how I spend those hours.

The following tips can help you get intentional about creating good sleep habits.
