A Powerful Possibility for Rail Safety

A Powerful Possibility for Rail Safety A Powerful Possibility for Rail Safety The U.S. owes much of its economic success to the railroad, which helped open up the country to commerce and travel. But its also been involved in its share of accidents and fatalities and still is. One obvious way to improve safety and reduce potential tragedies is through advanced safety equipment, but these technologies traditionally have also been very costly to build and power. Dr. Abolfazl Pourghodrat, co-inventor of a device to harvest power from trains to help power equipment for safety protection, hopes his teams work at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln can change this.Track to ImprovementWhen I got involved with this project, a stat I heard really hit home for me, says Pourghodrat. I had heard that every 90 minutes theres an accident at a remote crossing, he says. This has been an evolving process where better solutions have been found through iterations. I learned a great deal about improving a product through this process.An earlier iteration of his own device was powered by electromagnetics but it didnt create enough power for warning light systems as he envisioned, so his team then went the mechanical way.A prototype of the energy harvesting device. Image University of Nebraska, LincolnThis was a mechanical device to harvest energy from the direction of the railroad track. We did testing and said What if we also modified this mechanism when it came to direction? he explains. We were only generating power when the track moved downward but not upward. The second generation of the device could harvest both directions. We did testing and in summer it would work and provide enough watts of energy but in winter when the ground is icy and the soil is very solid, its not effective.The next improvement was a mechanical device which was basically having contact with a car wheel, says Pourghodrat, who graduated with a masters in mechanical engineering and a Ph.D. in biomedical en gineering from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Every time a wheel is passing it will contact a handle then the handle will eventually produce some sort of power.Within the mechanical device phase, they had a rack-and-pinion gear system that would convert the linear motion of the track to a rotary motion, he says.Lab testing set up. Image University of Nebraska, LincolnWhile these were good abfluging points, it was actually hydraulic power which took the device to the next level. Now it was able to go to almost 50 watts to 100 watts of power, which was much more than the previous solutions. It was based on the hydraulic principle or idea of mechanical advantage, he says. You would put the hydraulic cylinder below the track and when the car passes over the cylinder, it is pressed down. Ultimately, the generator will start to produce electricity.The present iteration is still under wraps, but its Pourghodrats hope that a version will make its way to railroad crossings in the near f uture. There needs to more options, if at all possible, he says. I could see it potentially making a difference.The challenge of the work has certainly made its mark on Pourghodrat, who found a word that truly defined all the iterations he focused on. Perseverance. I learned the perseverance of having to make a good amount of changes and to push yourself to look at a problem from many different angles, he says. You just get driven by the idea that the work could one day end up helping people on the tracks.Eric Butterman is an independent writer.Learn about the latest trends in energy solutions at ASMEsPower Energy Conference and Exhibition. For Further Discussion It was based on the hydraulic principle or idea of mechanical advantage.

How to Attract and Keep a Workplace Sponsor

How to Attract and Keep a Workplace SponsorHow to Attract and Keep a Workplace SponsorA sponsor is someone with power who knows you and your potential, who advocates for your success on the corporate (or organizational) ladder, and who helps remove obstacles to your progress. A sponsor is someone who is willing to champion your progress. A sponsor is someone who has enough clout to make a difference in decisions others make about your progress. A sponsor believes in you and your skills and abilities enough to risk her or his own credibility for you. A sponsor has enough faith in your ultimate success to protect you so that you can take risks and make occasional mistakes and missteps without setting your career back. What Does a Workplace Sponsor Do? Some examples of the kinds of actions that a sponsor might take on your behalf Hires you for a position, especially one where you can learn and advance even further.Actively puts your name forward when an opening is available that mat ches your skills and abilities.Actively considers and seeks out openings, assignments, and opportunities where you can advance.Makes a call to or has a one-on-one meeting with a decision maker who has the authority to say yes to an opportunity or promotion for you.Speaks up for your skills and abilities in meetings, when your name comes up or when opportunities come up. Tells you what you need to do and know to get chosen for the opening or opportunity.Connects you with others who can help you make progress, and prepares them to see you favorably.Advocates for good anfangsbuchstabe pay in a new position, or a good pay raise or bonus within a current position - and has enough influence with the decision makers to make these likely to happen.If youre an entrepreneur, a sponsor may open doors for venture capital or other investment.Defends or protects you in times when youve taken risks and failed, reminding the decision makers that risk is part of success - and expresses faith in yo ur ultimate success. How a Workplace Sponsor Differs From a Supporter or Mentor A good sponsor is also a supporter and a ratgeber, but a sponsor is more than either of those. A supporter or mentor is sometimes the partie who will help you figure out that you need a sponsor and how to find one. A supporter is someone at any level who supports your progress, but may not have the clout to remove obstacles. Supporters express encouragement, and sometimes speak up for you or helpyour progress. A mentor is someone who helps you understand what you need to progress through the organization, to fulfill your potential. Your mentor is an advisor - to you. A mentor focuses on changes you need to make to progress. Sometimes, a change you need to make is to find a sponsor. A sponsor is also a supporter and sometimes is also a mentor, but is much more. He or she is an active advocate with the power to smooth the path for you, to get your name into the right conversations at the right level, and to open doors by influencing decision-makers you might otherwise have no access to. Advantages to Having a Workplace Sponsor To be on the fast track in your organizational progress, youll want a sponsor. Mentors and supporters can help you make career progress, but that kind of help depends on decision makers happening to notice you and your work. A sponsor speeds up the process, by getting your name into the right conversations at the right time and at the right level, and helping decision-makers understand why you are the right person for the opportunity. What Are a Workplace Sponsors Responsibilities? To be an advocate, first, a sponsor needs to be familiar with you and your best - your skills, abilities, and your success record. If a sponsor pushes your case for an opportunity that isnt a good fit, that isnt good for your success, for the sponsors reputation, or for the decision-makers, they will not be helpful in your career success. Next, the sponsor is proactive in looking for opportunities that interest you and promoting your fit for those workplace positions. The sponsor talks up your potential with decision-makers, usually with information about past successes that provide evidence to back up the sponsors faith in you, and an enthusiasm that expresses that faith. The sponsor is willing to use influence with contacts in buchung to promote your success. Or to make opportunities more directly, hiring you or investing in your project. The sponsor and you keep in contact so that the sponsor can continue to promote you where you are and keep eyes open for further opportunities. The sponsor makes clear that this is a professional relationship, not a personal one, and actively avoids situations and occasions that would cross that line. When the sponsor is a man and is sponsoring a woman, this is especially important. A sponsor can help you propel your career forward in ways that youd otherwise not experience.For career success, consider how to find and keep a sponsor who can really help you advance. How to Attract a Sponsor Who Can Help You If you are interested in attracting a sponsor who can help you find opportunities to learn and grow in your career, the relationship must be mutually beneficial. Think about it whats in it for the sponsor? The sponsor takes the risks and spends the time promoting your career because your success will reflect well on the sponsor. And, those the sponsor influences to take you on will be grateful to the sponsor for the great find that you are. So, to attract and keep a sponsor, you have to show that youre worth that risk and effort. To find a possible sponsor, seek opportunities to interact with those who are in more senior positions than you are with clout and power. Volunteer to be the one to make a presentation for your group. Look around for people in your family and friendship circles who have influence in the field youre in or want to be in. Get involved in networking and profes sional groups that include people in more senior positions, in your organization or in related organizations. Youll need to show a potential sponsor your extraordinary success record, and make clear through your current performance that you have high potential to succeed even more as you advance. Promote your own strengths and successes, in a way that also shows you are a team player, who works well with others and whose colleagues are supporters. Make sure that visible evidence exists that demonstrates your potential in both your current and past performance. (No reputable sponsor is going to go to bat for you if your approach is Im not doing well in this job because it isnt right for me, but Id be much better in a more responsible position.) Be clear, first with yourself, then with possible sponsors, about your dreams and what you see as your potential. You want a sponsor to open the doors to your dream career, not to sidetrack it to opportunities that arent interesting or appropr iate for you. If youre looking for a career in higher education, for example, a sponsor who finds you aperfectspot in the meat-packing industry isnt going to be very helpful. Your sponsor will want to see that you are respectful at your workplace towards current colleagues, managers, customers, and other contacts. Respect for those with whom you workdoesnt mean that you arent ever going to move on. But, it does mean that you dontgossip about people with whom you workor to whom you report, put them down, or otherwise show disrespect for them. Tips for Communicating With Your Workplace Sponsor The sponsor puts his or her credibility on the line, so make sure that you are honest with your sponsorsand vertrauenswrdig to them. If you have any opportunities to help your sponsors success, take advantage of them. Its not a quid pro quo - your sponsor is likely much more powerful than you are right now. Your sponsor may do far more for you than you can do for her or him - but there mus t be a sense that youre looking out for each other. Dont hide your mistakes - that would be both dishonest and disloyal. Your sponsor doesnt want to be surprised by very bad news from valued associates and friends. If you do make mistakes in an opportunity the sponsor made possible, own up to your failure to your sponsor. Make clear what measures youre already taking to pick yourself up, and share the lessons youve learned.Ask for feedback and advice from your sponsor. Keep your sponsor in the loop on successes, too, so when another opportunity arises, the sponsor knows youre ready. While the sponsor has responsibility for not crossing the professional/personal line, you also have responsibility for this as the person being sponsored. Appearances matter, so avoid situations and occasions that might confuse onlookers (or you or the sponsor). Does Workplace Sponsorship Work? In an article in theNew York Times, Mentors Are Good. Sponsors Are Better., and in her book,Forget a Mento r, Find a Sponsor, Sylvia Ann Hewlett details research showing that those with sponsors succeed more quickly, on averagethan those without sponsors, even those with a mentor. Hewlett also lists major corporations, including American Express, ATT, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deloitte, Genentech and Morgan Stanley, that have begun programs to encourage sponsorship. If you are willing to reach out to potential sponsors and have a positive track record, and the potential to soar - reach out. People are proud and happy to sponsor women and men who will make them look good - and who will have their backs, too.

A Resume Writer Could Complete the Puzzle

A Resume Writer Could Complete the PuzzleA Resume Writer Could Complete the PuzzleA Resume Writer Could Complete the PuzzleCan a resume writer really get you a job? Thats the point, after all.Check out this article that was posted over the holidays by the Marine Corps Times. Whether or not you are a veteran, if you are thinking about hiring a resume writer, you might want to read thisA Resume Writer Could Complete the PuzzleMarine Corps Times, November 25, 2013, By Adam StoneWhen John Russo went looking for a job in 2011, he had stellar experience- almost too much of it.He had joined the Maryland Army National Guard in 1982 and served simultaneously while working as a police officer in Baltimore. He retired from the police department in 2011, then served as an active-duty Guard member until retiring as a colonel in 2009. He also had some experience working for a government contractor.What he didnt have was a resume that could make sense of all of that. How do you massage all that s tuff into a logical sequence for a human resources person to understand? It is very difficult to package all that into a homogenous resume that wouldnt confuse an average hiring person, Russo said.He found the help he needed in Kathryn Troutman, whose Baltimore-based The Resume Place specializes in turning military careers into coherent civilian CVs. Across the nation, resume services like hers offer to do the saatkorn for transitioning troops, but not all these services are created equal.Digging DeepIf the service is cheap, ask why. So says Troutman, author of Military to Federal Career Guide. She gets $550 to $950 for assembling a resume. If someone is doing this for $199, how can they possibly be running a business? I pay my writers $45 an hour because theyre good, she said.The cost often represents the service involved. It doesnt take a lot to craft a basic military resume. A resume service, on the other hand, should deliver something more.First, we want to help them identify wh at job we are going to target, based on skills and education and credentials. Then we go online and shop for job leads. We look at the job title, the salary, where the job is, and I say, How does that feel? Troutman said.Only then does the writing start.That honing process is key, said Barbara A. Adams, president of CareerPro Global in Macon, Ga., and co-author of Roadmap to Job-Winning Military to Civilian Resumes. She charges $300 to $1,000 for her services and she, too, starts by narrowing the focus.Often this starts by changing the veterans own understanding. People will want a general resume, but we need to change their mindset. No HR authority will hire a general person anymore. They want specific skills and attributes that are going to add value.Check Credentialselend everyone is up to the task, and for $500 or more, it behooves the savvy veteran to find someone who can do it right. That means checking out credentials, especially when it comes to specific expertise, says JR R odrigues, founder of Jobless Warrior in Cumberland, R.I., which provides discounted resume writing for out-of-work vets.I would want to know that they have worked in the types of industries I want to go into. Every industry is different. Each one will look for different buzzwords, he said.Across the board, experts agree that your resume writer doesnt have to be former military. If there is a history of writing successful resumes for other vets, that often can take the place of prior service. Can a resume writer really get you a job? Thats the point, after all.Actual experience may vary, of course, but it worked for Russo. He sent 275 resumes prior to going to Troutman, then got a job as an analyst at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in 60 days.To make it happen, he had to do his part. I had to do some research on the position I was looking for. I had to come up with several different versions of the resume. I had to feed her information, which meant I first ha d to read a lot of job descriptions and figure out which ones I wanted to do, he said.A veteran looking for help cant just sit and wait for it to happen.Aside from gathering pertinent military paperwork, awards and commendations and official documents, they need to bring a willingness to engage, Rodrigues said. We got veterans who sign up and then dont respond to the resume writer. Maybe they dont feel ready to look for a career. For this to work, they need to be ready to take that first step.See the original article here

What Recruiters Need When it Comes to Personal Branding

What Recruiters Need When it Comes to Personal Branding What Recruiters Need When it Comes to Personal Branding Its easy to market chocolate to candy lovers and cars to interested buyers, but when it comes to a recruiter and applicants, marketing yourself isnt so simple. The challenge ofbuilding a personal brandcan be difficult, but, according to Placester and Feldman Creative, so beneficial.Though the A to Z pointers seems extensive, truthfully, the 26 pointers can easily be summarized into 5 rules1. Be Real. Establish who you are and what your goals are in the long run, then stick to them Knowing who you are and what you stand for will not only define what is needed from current and future employees, but also help build a genuine personal brand.Authentic leadersare strong leaders who keep employees engaged and encourage new hires to work well with the gruppe. Along with a positive environment, authenticity is welcoming to interviewees. Who wouldnt want to work for the company wit h happy employees?2. Be Aware of Your Appearance.That doesnt mean taking a professional headshot that erases all blemishes and has amazing lighting. Appearance isnt all about the LinkedIn profile picture (however, it is recommended for bothcredibility and saturationto have a nice picture in all social media outlets).The way a company and its employees are viewed can change the success of hiring and happiness of employees. Having a great personal brand involves being a great brand ambassador.That said, only 14 percent of companies have employees whounderstand the organizations strategy, goals, and direction. The first place to start when it comes to building your brand ambassadors arsenals is developing a clear idea of what they are supporting.3. Brag a Little.Everyone has something to show. Social pages should be a place where all the wonderful things you and your team do, whether it be great content or interesting experiences.Everything from volunteering, fundraising, blog posts, i nfographics or conferences give social pages personality, and in turn, give their owners personality. Again, while this helps with personal branding, it supportsthe look of the companyfor which you work.4. Give Praise.No one entered the field or industry knowing it all. In fact, no one will ever know everything and this is great news.One benefit of not being omniscient is that there is someone who deserves shout outs. Be open about who helped you get to where you are and in turn pass the knowledge on. Someone is in need of the same advice. Its a great cycle that all industries have and the place you play in it can be the difference in a strong and out of this worldpersonal brand. Also, job seekers (and maybe even some of your hiring managers) dont know all that a recruiter does.A great way to get started is by sharing the content that give aha moments. When content is shared, relationships and thought leadership are built. No one should have to make a case for networking when it com es to recruiting. While youre sharing that great content you find, write some of your own. Use what youve read as inspiration and use the opportunity to develop even more insight. Even the Slideshares and PowerPoints used in presentations can make for engaging knowledge sharing.5. Be Zealous.elend everyone is outspoken and thats fine, but if you dont have passion then you dont have any way to affect the person from which youre sitting across the desk.Consider your audience and where you fit within them and run with it. Create avoicefor all the content you produce and stay consistent. Be open to questions, encourage opinions and stay true to who you are.Weak brands focus solely on intellectual arguments. Strong brands tap into emotions. The subject you need to master is psychology.Mastering your own personal brand is difficult, but so important. Defining who you and the company are can help not only in your online presence, but also in an interview setting. People want to be employee s of passionate companies and positive brands.How do you and your company help encourage positive personal brands? Where do you like to show yourself off?

These are the earliest signs of a future millionaire

These are the earliest signs of a future millionaireThese are the earliest signs of a future millionaireAccountant and financial planner, Tom Corley, is the author of the best selling,Rich Habits The Daily Success Habits of Rich Individuals.The book continues Corleys exploration of all the little under-observed qualities that separate us from high net earners.Some of his findings come in the form of preemptive measures, like learning how to invest and budget to accommodate a desired increased income, but sometimes they elude conventional wisdom.His survey on the most common qualities shared between young future millionaires serves the latter.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moraSlackers or non-conformistsCorley interviewed several high earners to better detail the earliest tells of a self-made millionaire. You might be surprised to learn that good grades in school seem to bear no obv ious positive indication of a future mogul. In fact, the majority of self-made success stories begin with C students. Only 21% received As in school growing up.Corley believes the correlation survives on the idea of tenacity. Individuals that are determined but struggle with academics are more likely to develop skills of resilience.You must grow a thick skin and become accustomed to struggle if you hope to succeed, says Corley.To the credit of Corleys quote, his survey additionally revealed future millionaires to principally come from poor to middle-class households. Forty-one percent and fifty-nine percent respectively.The false equivalency of grades and self-made wealth is made a little less curious when you take the character traits most frequently associated with financial success into account.In his book, The Wealth Elite, Rainer Zitelmann, interviewed a pool of millionaires and billionaires to get a better grasp of the characteristics that most constantly linked them.According to his research, high net earners among many things take risks, rely on their gut feelings, and describe themselves as non-conformists, These qualities paint a pretty vivid picture of some of the brilliant, but lazy students that occupied my school growing up.Zitelmann also says high-earners typically use their wealth to grant them the kind of freedom and independence that was unavailable to them hitherto.You might also enjoyNew neuroscience reveals 4 rituals that will make you happyStrangers know your social class in the first seven words you say, study finds10 lessons from Benjamin Franklins daily schedule that will double your productivityThe worst mistakes you can make in an interview, according to 12 CEOs10 habits of mentally strong people

5 career resolutions you can actually keep in 2019

5 career resolutions you can actually keep in 2019 5 career resolutions you can actually keep in 2019 The new year is upon us. And with  new years, come New Year’s resolutions. This glance forwards and backwards gives us a chance to pause. It gives us the chance to think about how we’re offering ourselves to the world, and how we show up in the workplace.Most people give up on their resolutions long before February rolls around. With that in mind, here are 5  career goals  you can actually achieve in 2019:1. Give a TED talk.Sure, you may give presentations all the time. But more than likely, those presentations are full of platitudes, and bulleted slides your audience skims as they listen to you with half an ear cocked. TED talks are different. 18 minutes, a topic, and an audience -  that’s it.Preparing for a TED talk is exhilarating, nerve-wracking, and a brutal look in the mirror as you fly without a net. You have left Powerpoint country. You should commit yourself this year to give a TED talk because it will push you to be better, leaner, and more of a storyteller than you were before. This  guide, straight from the non-profit founders, will help you prepare.  Once you’re ready to rumble, search for a Tedx event near you and add your talk to the agenda, or  launch your own program  by recruiting a few folks to take the plunge with you. Then broadcast some of the best TED has to offer from their archives, and get studying.2. Help someone else get ahead.In an era where job-hopping is growing steadily, many employees are focused more on their own career growth than the idea of growing within an organization over time. All that focus on our own selves and our own needs can make us forget about the other people sitting with us at the conference table. This year, make it a goal to figure out how you can amplify the voices of others - especially those from marginalized communities.In our current political climate, people are being actively targeted based on race, ethnicity, religious beliefs,  gender identity, and disabilities more than ever before. You can help create an atmosphere where every voice is valued by supporting differing opinions and points of view. Multiple studies point to how often  women are undermined at work  or not given credit for their ideas. There’s also plenty of evidence about the  exit of underrepresented minorities  due to  discrimination. For instance, 64% of queer employees who left said that  bullying at work  contributed to their decision.Regardless of your own background, you can support diverse colleagues by sharing their work on social media, connecting them to people within and without of your organization, reminding people where a great idea originated when others take credit for it, and keeping an eye out for who tends to dominate conversations so you can make space for others.3. Talk to strangers.It’s easy to get so caught up in your laundry list of to-do items that the days and weeks fly by. Part of what helps us get to the next step in our careers is the chance to remove ourselves from t he immediate, and step outside of our obvious circle of responsibilities. Adaptive change experts call this “getting onto the balcony.” In other words, stop dancing and get into a position where you can see the scene from a more strategic position. One of the easiest ways to do this is to schedule regular conversations with people outside of your everyday work -  people in close enough proximity to understand your organization or industry, but far enough away to give insights you may be too close to realize on your own.This year, I encourage you to think about 3 areas in which you want to grow, and then schedule at least one conversation a month that would allow you to learn more. Whether it’s through your alumni  network  or through  LinkedIn, you’d be surprised how willing strangers are to talk to you about their work if you’re buying the coffee. Schedule a monthly time slot for both the conversations themselves, and for the research and outreach required to connect to someone you can learn from. Then honor that commitment, like you would any other meeting on your  calendar.4. Go to a conference alone.The first year of a  new job  can feel like drinking from a firehose; there’s so much to learn. But as we get more competent at our  jobs, we often get more comfortable. Too comfortable. Want to up your learning this year? Go to a  conference  you’ve never attended before. And if you really want to learn big, go alone. Flying solo will encourage you to focus on the learning, rather than on catching up with office gossip. Give yourself a goal to sit with someone you just met at every meal, and you’ll leave with new contacts as well as new knowledge.5. Fix something that’s broken.It’s easy to  complain  about what’s wrong with your current employer. It’s much harder to come up with a solution to a problem you’ve observed. This year, pick something that’s not working where you work, and come up with a way to fix it. Engage coworkers, set a list of measurable goals, and draw up a timeline. Not only will you “be the change you want to see in the world,” but you’ll likely gain some empathy as to why tough problems can be hard to solve.Only a small fraction of people who make New Year’s resolutions actually stick to them. Making your commitments tangible, writing them down, and checking in with yourself will help you reach your goals. Make this year the year by becoming your own accountability partner. You can send yourself motivational messages, in your own voice, with the wonderful website,  Futureme.org. Send a message to your future self, reminding you why you set these goals in the first place, tell Futureme.org when to send it, and when that date rolls around it will arrive in your inbox. Everyone needs a cheerleader, it might as well be you!A version of this post previously appeared on  Fairygodboss, the largest career community that helps women get the inside scoop on pay, corporate culture, benefits , and work flexibility.

Six-Figure Jobs With the Most Competition

Six-Figure Jobs With the Most Competition Six-Figure Jobs With the Most Competition Jobs with big salaries can equal big competition. Glassdoor’s Economic Research Analyst Amanda Stansell defines job competition as high when “there are at least two job seekers for every job, per job title,” and some well-paying positions can have as many as 10 applicants for every job listing on Glassdoor . The tech industry is home to many of the most sought-after positions, and Stansell explains that exciting perks and benefits in tech combined with impressive salaries are attracting a large number of applicants. “Many young, skilled workers are flooding into these roles,” she says. Keep reading to see if your dream job made it on the list, plus expert advice for candidates in competitive fields on how to stand out from the crowd.

Companies Hiring: Simplee, SHYFT Analytics, PCM, Travelers Companies, Slack, Collaborative Solutions & more. Are you a job seeker facing stiff competition? Fear not â€" just because the competition is high doesn’t mean your chances of scoring the job you want are nonexistent. Make sure you stand out from the crowd by being specific on how you â€" and only you â€" can best fit the company. Tim Toterhi, executive coach and founder of Plotline Leadership , advises supplementing your resume and cover letter with a “side by side one-pager that lists the big ticket items from the job description and how exactly you will tackle those if awarded the role.” Use previous experiences listed in your resume to demonstrate how you can deliver these promises: “If you can back up your assertions with metrics and proof points from prior positions that’s even better.” Ultimately an employer has already determined that you are qualified for the position â€" what’s important is what you specifically can bring to the position; Toterhi says, “ What I need to know is why you can do it better than anyone else.” Methodology: For a job to be considered for “Six-Figure Jobs With the Most Competition” report, job titles must have 1,000 unique U.S. active direct employer openings as of 5/18/2018, and 100 apply starts between 4/10/2018 â€" 5/10/2018. A job must have also received at least 30 salary reports shared by U.S.-based employees between 6/1/2016 and 5/16/2018 on Glassdoor. This list reveals just a sample of jobs in which U.S. employees report a total median annual compensation of $100,000 or more. Glassdoor economic research analysts define “competition” for this report as the ratio of apply starts (in last 30 days) to unique count of open jobs. There is “most competition” when there are at least two job seekers for every job, per job title on Glassdoor. This report takes into account job title normalization that groups similar job titles. Intern level jobs were excluded from this report.

Best Accounting Firms (Vault Top 50 Accounting Firms)

Best Accounting Firms (Vault Top 50 Accounting Firms) Best Accounting Firms (Vault Top 50 Accounting Firms) The Vault Accounting 50 is a widely used and reported annual ranking based on surveys of employees and job seekers in the accounting field.  The top 10 overall in the 2016 release of this survey are: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLPDeloitte LLPErnst Young LLPKPMG LLPGrant Thornton LLPBDO USA LLP  RSM US LLP  Plante MoranMoss Adams LLPCrowe Horwath LLP Follow the links for more detail on the top 4, all of which are members of the prestigious and highly-regarded  Big Four Public Accounting Firms.  Thumbnail sketches of the next 6 firms on the list follow. All these firms have practice groups in audit, tax and consulting. Grant Thornton is based in Chicago, Illinois. It employs 6,500 people in the U.S. and is the 6th largest accounting firm in the U.S. by revenues. It has a wide international presence. BDO USA LLP was formerly known as BDO Seidman. It is the U.S. member firm of BDO International Ltd., with its U.S. headquarters in Chicago, Illinois. It has 50 offices and 5,000 employees in the U.S., plus 1,328 offices in 152 other countries. McGladrey LLP, based in Chicago, Illinois, is the U.S. member of RSM International, a worldwide network of independent accounting and consulting firms. It has a staff of 8,000 located in 80 offices across the U.S. Plante Moran is based in Southfield, Michigan. It has 23 offices and 2,200 employees, located in Michigan, Ohio, and Illinois. It also has international offices in Mexico, China, and India. Moss Adams LLP, headquartered in Seattle, Washington, has 24 offices in the western U.S. and employs 2,000 people. It is the 15th largest U.S. accounting firm by revenue. It is a founding member of Praxity, AISBL, an alliance of over 100 independent accounting and auditing firms from over 97 countries and territories. Crowe Horwath LLP is based in Chicago, Illinois and has 3,000 employees in 28 offices spread across the country. By revenue, it ranks 8th largest among U.S. accounting firms. Ranking and Rating Methodology Respondents to the Vault.com survey rated accounting firms on these seven dimensions or attributes (the percentage weights in parentheses are applied to derive the overall ranking): Prestige (40%)Firm culture (20%)Work-life balance  (10%)Compensation (10%)Overall job satisfaction (10%)Business outlook (5%)Formal training programs (5%) Additional Criteria Though they do not factor into the overall ratings, Vault.com also includes these evaluation criteria in its surveys: BenefitsClient InteractionGreen InitiativesFirm LeadershipHiring ProcessHoursInformal TrainingInternal MobilityPhilanthropyPromotion PolicyRelations With SupervisorsTravel Requirements Also measured is diversity along each of these dimensions: OverallFor WomenFor MinoritiesLGBTFor People With DisabilitiesFor  Military Veterans Limitations of the Rankings While the rating and ranking methodology used by Vault.com is highly detailed, it nonetheless represents a summary of the personal opinions of survey respondents. As a result, it is fundamentally highly subjective. Accordingly, these rankings may or not be representative of your own preferences in choosing among employers, work situations, and career paths. Another open question is how closely the pool of survey respondents actually represents the opinions of all employees. Although the Big Four fill the top 4 spots overall, they regularly score much lower (usually in 20th place or below) along the dimensions that are most indicative of their desirability as places to work, most notably firm culture, work-life balance and job satisfaction. Being the top 4 in prestige, which gets the highest weight, accounts for their high placement overall. It suggests that the Big Four may be more desirable as resume-building stopovers in a career path pointed elsewhere than as long-term career destinations. In the 2013 survey, BDO and McGladrey ranked 29th and 28th overall, respectively. By the next year, both had entered into the top 10, where they have remained since. Such a dramatic move raises questions about the robustness and quality of the survey samples. About Vault Founded in 1996 and headquartered in New York, Vault.com seeks to inform job seekers about what it is like to work within a particular industry, company, or profession, and what is needed to get these jobs. Its database includes nearly 5,000 companies in over 120 industries, as well as over 840 professions.   Best known are its rankings, ratings, and reviews of top employers by industry and hundreds of internship programs, based on  directed surveys of active employees and enrolled students.

This internet video phenom may have surprising health benefits

This internet video phenom may have surprising health benefits This internet video phenom may have surprising health benefits Whether it’s a new app, a viral music video, or a recording of a woman (debatably) saying “Laurel” or “Yanny,” there’s no escaping the online trends that take the Internet by storm and then fade over time. Online sensations usually come and go â€" but some manage to maintain a lasting impact, like the devoted ASMR community.ASMR â€" the relaxing, static-like, sensory phenomenon, has generated a multi-million-strong fanbase across Reddit and YouTube, and the community is continuously growing. In a new study published in The Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine, scientists at the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom found that ASMR, which stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, can actually produce a decreased heart rate amongst participants, in addition to feelings of relaxation in the brain that mimic the effects of meditation.“ASMR is described as a ‘brain tingling’ sensation that starts at the crown of the head and then descends through the r est of the body,” explains Ana Sandoiu at Medical News Today. “[Websites have] witnessed thousands of testimonials from people talking about the relaxing, static-like feeling that they get from specific stimuli, ranging from the sound of whispering to that of crumpling paper.”In order to find out whether or not ASMR has tangible health benefits among listeners, Guilia Poerio, of the University of Sheffield’s Department of Psychology, conducted two studies: one online, and one in the laboratory. After collecting responses from a sample size of over 1000 online participants and the 112 recruits for the laboratory study (half of whom self-identified as ASMR experiencers), Poerio found that individuals who experienced ASMR also reported higher levels of “excitement and calmness,” as well as “lower levels of stress and sadness” compared to the measurements taken prior to the study.The laboratory experiment also revealed that ASMR experiencers had a dramatically slower hea rt rate when watching the ASMR videos. “Specifically, the heart rates of the ASMR experiencers were, on average, 3.14 beats per minute lower than those of non-experiencers,” Sandoiu says.Poerio says ASMR videos do indeed benefit the body’s physical and mental state, but only in those who can experience the feeling. So if you’ve never heard of the phenomenon and you’re looking to improve your brain health and reach a state of mindfulness, it can’t hurt to give it a try.“What’s interesting,” Pioro concludes, “Is that the average reductions in heart rate experienced by our ASMR participants was comparable to other research findings on the physiological effects of stress reduction techniques such as music and mindfulness.”The science behind the stress reduction, relaxation, and health benefits of ASMR is still relatively new, but it’s increasingly convincing. If you’re in need of some calming downtime, ASMR may be worth a shot.This article first appeared on Thr ive Global.

3 of millennials say they would dump their partner for a $37,000 raise

3 of millennials say they would dump their partner for a $37,000 raise Almost 1/3 of millennials say they would dump their partner for a $37,000 raise What would you be willing to sacrifice to get ahead in your career? This is a question every working professional faces, and now, one survey has answers. When financial services company  Comet  surveyed 364 single working millennials without children, they found that millennials were willing to sacrifice a romantic relationship for the right price.Survey: A big promotion can be worth more than a relationshipMillennials in the survey admitted they would be willing to remain single for 11 years, put off a wedding for seven years, and delay having children for a “life-changing promotion.” In fact, 32% of single millennials said they would dump a partner if they got a raise. On average, respondents said $37,000 would be enough to end a relationship and a $36,000 raise would be enough to delay getting into a new one. The top answer these millennials gave for not getting into a relationship was “I’m picky,” and surprisingly not “I am focusing on my career,” which came in four th.Once they found the right person, more millennials were willing to make sacrifices in their career for a relationship. The overwhelming majority of respondents (86%) said they would move to another city if their partner was offered a better job and more than half of millennials were also willing to go the extra mile and travel to another country if it helped their partner’s career.Millennials questioning value of relationships is normalOverall, the survey shows that millennials are using their twenties and early thirties to explore who they are and what they value before settling on a particular life path with any one person. Psychologist Jeffrey Arnett has coined a phrase for this time period back in the 1990s - “emerging adulthood.” Under Arnett’s theory, emerging adulthood is a distinct life stage of identity exploration. Millennials need this time to figure out what they want out of work and love. Sometimes, this exploration leads to questions about what really matte rs, and the resulting answers may mean that romance goes on the back burner.

Stats and Surprises to Help Your Job Search

Stats and Surprises to Help Your Job Search Stats and Surprises for the Job Search Stats and Surprises to Help Your Job Search We all know the economys troubles have led to the loss of nearly 2 million jobs in the last year. With more and more layoffs occurring each week, how difficult might it be for someone to land a new position? Here are some findings from recent surveys that might surprise you, and that could have an impact on your job search: FINDING: 90% of Executives Are Concerned About Gaps in a Resume According to a survey conducted for OfficeTeam, more than 9 out of every 10 executives polled said they would be concerned about a candidates fit for a job if his or her resume revealed involuntary gaps in employment. Employers are aware that people could be out of work through no fault of their own, but resume gaps can still pose a significant obstacle for job candidates, said Dave Wilmer, executive director of OfficeTeam. Applicants who have lengthy periods of unemployment should focus on quantifying their achievements and emphasizing specific skills and experience. What This Means for You: If you have a significant gap in your resume, be prepared to address it in the job interview without being evasive.If you were laid off as part of a cost-cutting move, say so, making clear that it was not sub-par performance that cost you the job. And as the survey says, make sure the rest of your resume accentuates the positive by quantifying your past achievements and relevant skill sets. FINDING: LinkedIn Users Have Higher Incomes If you make a lot of money (say, six figures) or want to, LinkedIn is the place to hang out on the web. A study by Anderson Analytics concluded that nearly 60% of LinkedIns users have high personal incomes and hold executive-level or consultant positions. What This Means for You: Employers know that high-level professionals are using LinkedIn, so many of them are now looking there for potential employees or at least checking out the profiles of those they're already interviewing. So, if you dont yet have a profile on LinkedIn, it would be a good idea to sign up and create one (it's free). FINDING: Companies Are Still Having Trouble Finding the Right People If youre out of work right now and wondering how long it will take before you find another job, take heart. There may be an employer out there who is desperately looking for someone like you. In a survey by Watson Wyatt Worldwide, 77% of companies represented said attracting critical-skill employees is a challenge today, and 60% said attracting top performers is a challenge. What This Means for You: Think of how you can set yourself apart from others who are seeking the same job. Work on branding yourself as someone with the critical skills that are highly valued in your field. Focus your efforts (and your resume) on how you can solve a prospective employers problem. Remember: Its not all about you! Is there anything else going on in the job market that you feel strongly about? Let us know in the Comments section.
