Working with new clients on a regular basis keeps me energized. I love learning about their different careers and the paths they have followed up to the point of meeting me. While becoming acquainted with them, getting a feel for what their objectives are, and reviewing their old resume, almost all of my clients want to interject additional information.

Additional information is obviously helpful and expected during the review and resumes development process when it is relevant. Current position achievements and accomplishments definitely need to be included as does any formal training, education, or other service performed relevant to the future objective of the client. The problem occurs when, in the process of building or updating their own resume, clients want to include an overload of information. This is usually the reason most job seekers eventually contact a resume writer. It is often a wise decision because it is very hard to be objective when writing for oneself. Weeding through all of the past performances can be a very subjective task. Certified writers are trained and very experienced in sorting through information and utilizing only the most relevant information resulting in powerful, focused resumes.

What I remind my clients is that it is important to stay focused while writing the resume. What is the goal of the resume and what is the specific position you are trying to obtain? Clients with several years of experience have the luxury of retrieving and using only the most applicable experiences and achievements. However, most want to provide information on all aspects of every job ever held. This unneeded information just adds clutter to the resume and waters down the strength of the document.

Employers are very busy and usually not excited about the whole hiring process. The average resume is reviewed for 15-20 seconds before given the "yeah or neigh". What are the employers looking for? They are looking for actual accomplishments and achievements with numbers and facts to back up the achievement. Also they are interested in your fit with their company. Will you get along, work hard, fit in, and make them money? You resume must show them using your resume that you are what they are looking for. The resume needs to also make you stand out and shine leave a lasting impression, all in the first glance.

Resumes are most relevant when they are targeting a specific criteria, job description or goal. Pointing all achievements, as well as daily responsibilities towards your goal will give you a sharp, well focused resume and a definite advantage over the competition. A well crafted resume created by a Certified Professional Resume Writer works because it has been specifically developed for you and your current career goals and needs, it isn't generic or to broadly focused to fit the positions you are seeking. It also has specific industry, profession, and position keywords strategically integrated into the document to draw attention from both human and computer generated senses.

A good naturopathic doctor, while very skilled, may still not enjoy the same types of perks as other conventional doctors. Naturopathy is still struggling to get noticed in the same aspects of medicine as conventional drug-based treatments.

Doctors in naturopathic medicine are, however, highly respected in their fields and are considered to be very successful in their expertise. A good doctor in this field knows that he or she is making a difference day after day.

In essence, a naturopathic doctor practices medicine that is designed around assisting the body's own capacity to recover and restore its own health. Naturopathic medicine or naturopathy is one of the newer schools of medical thought and philosophy.

It is often frowned upon by those in traditional medicine, but naturopathy does take its place in the arena of other alternative medicines such as chiropractic and herbalism. Such a doctor has every confidence in their craft and aims to help patients by utilizing the body's own inner strength.

Typical medical treatment in this field is based on employing a variety of modes. These modes are represented by elements such as acupuncture, herbalism, whole foods treatment, aromatherapy, and hydrotherapy. With these elements, treatment in this field may also have a reliance on forms of psychological treatments to help prepare the mind and assist with overall recovery.

A doctor in this field will use his treatment options to help patients with a variety of ailments and conditions. Acne, for example, is a skin condition that lends itself to such a treatment.

Acne naturopathic medical treatment works with the surface of the skin, sometimes with a form of hydrotherapy coupled with a change in eating habits, to ease the process of acne on the skin. Many people are turning to such acne treatment for their problem skin.

Another example of an ailment that many people seek out naturopathic treatment for is pain. A doctor in this field may have a specialty in pain control and may dedicate a large period of time in his or her life to the study of pain and its psychological implications.

Any qualified American naturopathic med association, for example, has a full treatment regimen based on the consequences of pain. These standards are typically imposed by each individual doctor based on their known treatments. There is a rising need for some sort of association in this field to deal with some of the known issues in forming such a school of thought.

Nonetheless, a doctor in this field is still relatively alone in the field of medicine. While they may practice alongside conventional medical doctors, he may often still be looked down upon by his peers.

This can happen despite having the same amount of medical treatment. such a doctor, in many cases, is more in tune with certain aspects of medicine that many conventional doctors ignore, such as the psychological aspect of healing. Within the confines of modern medicine, many doctors in this field do not believe they will ever experience equality.

The reality behind naturopathic medicine is that it is gaining steam in mainstream circles with its unique approach to medicine. Instead of treating symptoms, doctors in this field treat the whole of the patient and take a more holistic approach to medicine. He will consider all of the elements of treatment when looking at a patient, ensuring that they get the best possible care.

Being stuck in a rut with your career is no fun at all. I've been there before, so I know how it feels. Day in and day out, I went to work, felt myself waste away a little bit, and then went home. The day was gone and I didn't do anything that I found worth my time. Sure, I worked and earned a paycheck, but there's more to a rewarding career than just bringing home a paycheck.

I wanted more…I needed more out of my career. What I was doing was not giving me a sense of satisfaction or personal reward. Even though I earned a living, I felt like I was wasting my day, each day. That's no way to live.

Off I went on a search for the right career for me. This was important to do because I needed that sense of satisfaction and reward. I needed to feel like I was not wasting my day. The career I was in at the time did not give me that sense of satisfaction and reward. I needed something different -- I needed to get out of the rut.

There is hope for a better career, a better life, and a brighter future. The task does seem insurmountable, but as I have proven to myself, it is not.

Let me tell you a little bit about my journey. Day to day, I would wake before my body was ready, no matter how early I went to bed. I got ready and left for work, commuting anywhere from 45 minutes to one and a half hours, depending on traffic. I would then sit in a cubicle all day long, working at my computer, doing work that I found very boring, until it was time to go home. Then I left for the commute home. When I arrived at home, I was exhausted. Being bored all day really wore me out.

How could I possibly search for another job or get more education when I was exhausted every day? I will tell you that it was hard. I had a few false starts before really committing myself to the task. Basically, I was fed up. I was tired of what I was doing and I became driven to do more. That drive gave me the energy I needed to get out of my rut.

I made a basic plan, and then implemented a course of action. I decided that I needed more education in a different field, and so I started looking. Once I found what I needed, I worked tirelessly toward my goal. It was hard work, but I got there. I got out of that rut through hard work and dedication, both held together by a single vision of where I wanted to be in life.

That single vision is what helped me through the hard times of this journey. When I was down or tired, the vision gave me the energy I needed to go on. If you need to get out of a rut, you need a vision. You need something to reach for -- something you can see in your mind's eye. Find that vision and you can find something more for yourself.

The entrepreneur game is filled with an amazing variety of individuals. Laid-off workers, semi-retired individuals, inspired people with unbounded enthusiasm, and, oh yes, mothers too.

I can speak in the first person about the hardship of self-employment; the daughter of a sign shop owner, I still get nostalgic at a whiff of turpentine or paint fumes; the wife of a persistent ‘start-up’ husband, I’ve stood by many, many businesses and contract jobs while my husband ventured his talents in fields as diverse as gutter sales, RESP representative and Capital finance consultant; and memorably, I recall selling small gift items with my mother at flea markets and tried my own hand at jewellery making while still in junior high.

Yes, my experience has also opened my eyes to the devastation of bankruptcy, unreliable business partners and misleading (even deceitful) ‘home business’ schemes.

However, once you have the taste of independence that self-employment offers, it is mighty hard to fight back! So now, as a mother of two small children, I am more determined than ever, that I, and hopefully my husband as well, will BE self-employed with a certain amount of security and obviously, a reliable amount of income.

What can be done? Where does it start? How much will it cost? And can you come from a terrible defeat, self-employment-wise, and “rise from the ashes?”

My answer is “Absolutely!”

I swear to you that opportunity is out there. I see it, and taste it, and more importantly, I know it’s been had by others. What I have also learned is that there are at least FIVE important steps I must take to realize true satisfaction in this game. Let me share them with you.

1) Perseverance.

There are probably more types of work-at-home businesses (or ‘schemes’) than pebbles on a beach. This can be overwhelming to a new entrepreneur. But it also means that there will certainly be something you would like to try your hand at. Keep reading, keep surfing, keep asking questions. Knowledge is everything when you’re planning a real business. You’ll learn as much (or more) from your failures as you will from your success.

2) Persistence.

Face it, a lot of people will get excited about a new idea, but very few will follow it through. If you try something that your gut tells you is a good idea, than persist, persist, persist. Often times what makes the difference between those who ‘make it’ and those who don’t, is that solid businesses require a certain amount of real effort. If you are giving it all you’ve got, than results will come.

3) Patience.

In this world of instant satisfaction, it can come as a mind-snapping shock that MOST success stories are not made overnight. It’s true that there are examples of individuals who put a few dollars into a business and became millionaires (or did they?) But you can be assured that a good business will take time to ‘saturate’ its market. It may be only days or weeks before you see something happen, but generally you need to expect a minimum of 6 months to a more often stated 2 years to see a reliable business take shape.

4) Positivity.

Is it all sounding too hard by now? Remember, these qualities will Set You Apart! If success was really as easy as some like to advertise, than why are there so many people struggling to pay the bills? Be Positive. If you have the entrepreneur spirit, you know you will eventually try something new, why not keep going with what you have? The rewards are there! It’s been said before, but I quote this anonymous source again: Surround yourself with positive people. I guarantee this makes the difference. If your enthusiasm is being drained, DO NOT share your thoughts or progress with those individuals. Save it for when you can gloat!

5) Past Experience.

This goes back to perseverance. USE your past experiences. Never feel your investment of time or money was a waste. You cannot learn much for free these days, but these experiences will build your business on a solid foundation of knowledge, wisdom, practical experience and confidence. You will learn to trust your instincts more and more. You will spot a fraud, or at least know how to read between the lines of an offer that sounds too good to be true. Most importantly, your experience will enable you to adapt and your self-employment will be firmly fixed as your way of life from here on because of it!

I truly wish you success in your venture. In time we will all have great stories to share of our rise to self-employed FREEDOM. In the mean time, keep going! You will succeed!

Many people dream of a career in medicine. The idea of helping others by providing vital care when they are ill is appealing. There are several different career paths to pursue for someone who wants to get into this field. A great choice for an individual who wants to provide patient care without years and years of related time spent in a classroom is to become a medical assistant.

Virtually every medical office whether it’s the office of a high profile plastic surgeon, or a clinic in a small town, employs medical assistants. These individuals are often viewed as the back bone of the practice and it is through their hard work and dedication that the office keeps running on a smooth course. The medical assistant aids in so many areas including helping behind the front desk, taking on tasks related directly to patient care and then following up with laboratories and image and diagnostic centers.

There are several different types of medical assistants including those who specialize in a particular field of medicine. In addition to working in a general practitioner’s office, some assistants feel a pull to working in other environments where their expertise could be utilized. This may be in the office of an ophthalmologist, a podiatrist, a gynecologist and even in a laboratory. Although the responsibilities allocated to the assistant will differ slightly depending on where they work, their main focus remains the same and that’s to be a source of help for the doctor and other medical personnel.

There are naturally many skills that a physician’s assistant must have in order to correctly perform their job. These typically include having an aptitude for working with a computer as the assistant can often be found behind a desk handling the demanding job of scheduling appointments, tending to the billing and calling other doctor’s offices for referrals. Although this may appear at first glance to be something of a mundane way to work in medicine, it’s not at all. Without the skilled expertise of the assistant, the office itself would grind to a standstill.

Many assistants prefer to work in an office where they are given the opportunity to aid directly in patient care. Although a medical assistant is not permitted to give a medical examination, they are often trained to take a person’s vital signs upon entering the examination room, and they may also be skilled in giving injections or drawing blood. It can be incredibly rewarding for the assistant to spend a few moments with each patient as they arrive at the office, asking about what their medical issue is as well as taking a brief medical history. For this reason it’s very important that the assistant have an empathetic nature and be friendly.
