The article written for this week’s addition of “Woman Around Town” addresses two life changing events: getting married and changing one’s job. The title “Change is Good: Are You The Bride or the Cellphone” incorporates the two topics discussed in the article: planning a wedding while not jeopardizing your job, and, when and why to consider a job change. The wedding topic was part of the week’s special edition devoted to June weddings. The job change topic was a response to a reader who asked, “why interview, if your job isn’t broken”. It includes a list of reasons to change jobs despite the fact that the current job may be adequate. The cellphone is used as an analogy that refers to an individual and their career and is explained in the piece.

Friday, June 11th, 2010“Latest Trends in Interview Questions” article written by Susan Goldberg, published this week
Wednesday, May 19th, 2010As a follow up to the “Interviewing Secrets” presentation given at Carole Hyatt’s networking salon, Susan Goldberg wrote an article for “Woman Around Town” focused on the specific topic of the changing trend in interview questions. “Latest Trends in Interview Questions – The “It” Factor is the “Fit” Factor” was published in this week’s “Woman Around Town”. It points to the influence of an uncertain economy, the abundance of unemployed highly skilled and experienced professionals, the necessity for companies to hire intelligently without wasting time or additional resources, and young business owners (Gen X and those in their 20’s) expectations of surrounding themselves with a tightly-knit group with shared values that they have become accustomed to all their life, as the drivers of a change in interview questions being asked by progressive companies.
