Applying for careers can be a stressful task for many as the job market has become more competitive. Although preparing a resume can be a daunting task, it is a beneficial tool that opens the gateway for potential interviews. Several companies offer free resume tools to career hopefuls hoping to impress potential employers. Although a resume can help an individual get their foot in the door, it's the interview that can help seal the deal, which is why it's important for a potential employee to be confident and on their game. According to a survey conducted by the International Hyperhidrosis Society (IHHS), those who sweat excessively tend be afraid of going on job interviews. Approximately 27% of respondents who sweat excessively indicated that they avoid job interviews all together because of their condition. "In today's tough economy, job seekers need every possible edge to make a good first impression on potential employers," explained founding board member of IHHS David Pariser. "Unfortunately, the excessive sweating disorder is often misinterpreted as a lack of confidence, negatively influencing chances of being selected as a job candidate." Before stressing about the interview, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that individuals seeking employment should make their resumes as direct as possible. Hopeful employees should work their skills and qualifications around the desired position.  |
