My dad thinks that he is got to keep working to support all of us. I
11、t is amazing that when I see myself working until late night, sometimes even weekends and holidays, it is like seeing my father. One day I asked him, why at his age, 65 years old, does he still have to work so much. He replied, Because the day I die, I want to leave certain that your mother and all
12、of you will not be unsupported. My dad spent quality time with us too, and he proved to me that working hard is not an excuse to unattended the family.

You want to be sure they can get the job done and even surpass your expectations. You want to be sure
19、that they fit in with most of the people that are already employed andmesh into your company culture.Lastly, you want to be sure they aretaking this job for the long-run.At the very least you expect them to stay with the company for at least two years. So in the process of looking for all of these t
20、hings, the educational background and past work experiences of your top candidates is bound to come up. As an employer, what should you place more importance on: educational background or experience?Its a question that both job seekers and employers alike have asked themselves. If theres a most comm
21、on answer to this often-asked question than the answer is: it depends. It depends on what the job is, what kind of candidate you are looking for, what you expect out of the future employee and what you think is most important as an employer. A lot of employers automatically require their candidates
22、to have a four-year degree to fill their positions. However, is it always necessary? Can someone who has a good deal of work experience, but no degree fill that role as well? By placing this requirement in your job post, you may be missing out on a good deal of talent. What you should do before you
23、make an educational requirement is to ask yourself a few questions. What are the expected behaviors of this candidate? What abilities and knowledge must they posses? What are the most important skills? Then ask yourself if those requirements are attainable without a degree.Thepresident of Reliabilit
24、y Careers John Hatackled this same debate a while back. In trying to answer the question, he took a look at what most employers associate with candidates, or employees, that have a degree. For one, most assume that they know how to analyze problems, conduct research and produce solutions. A great de
25、al of higher education is composed of this specific skill. No matter what degree a candidate has, they worked hard to get it and probably exhibited these skills.Its also assumed that they can learn complex subject matters and are motivated individuals since they graduated and earned their degree. Ho
26、wever, dont candidates that possess a great deal of work experience likely have these characteristics as well? Perhaps you have a candidate that has had two jobs previously and no degree, and a candidate that has a degree but no experience. If the candidate with no degree worked in your industry bef
27、ore, does their experience put them above the candidate with a degree but virtually no experience in the field? This candidate has proven that they can get the job done, and have before. Cancelling out job seekers like this one alienates you from a great pool of talent.Ultimately, as the hiring mana
28、ger or employer, the decision is yours to make. Most desirable would be a candidate with a good educational backgroundandexperience. Its important though that you weigh each option and decide if a degree is truly a requirement or just a desire you seek in your candidates. Depending on the job, the a
29、nswer may be very different.What do you think? Is educational background more important than experience, or is it the other way around? Or perhaps both?

30、 drive to the supermarket to buy our weekly groceries, with around only five per cent of us shopping regularly online there is still a long way to go before online shopping becomes the norm.So what are the pros and cons when it comes to shopping online rather than in store, many of us will certainly
31、 do our research online to look for the bargains when it comes to bigger purchases such as a new washing machine or even for our new car, but when it comes to finding the best priced tin of beans many of us are missing a trick.So here is my list of the good versus the bad when it comes to your weekl
32、y online grocery shopping:The not so good: Buying fresh produce such as fruit can be a challenge, us Britts like to see the quality of such items before we buy. If the item we select is out of stock when it comes to filling our order we have to rely on the supermarket to give us an alternative and e
33、ven run the risk of not receiving anything at all. We just dont believe that we will be given the best expiration dates on perishable food such as bread and milk, after we know supermarkets want to sell that first. We think we are missing out on money saving offers; we actually enjoy the thrill of t
34、he hunt for bargains. Even though the big four have the some of the most sophisticated and advanced online shopping systems in the world, we simply dont enjoy the experience of trawling though list of items.Some great reasons to shop online: You are far less likely to over spend, when we shop online
35、 we usually have a list of items that we need and we stick to it, this simple fact alone this can save you 100s every year. The bargains will find you and they will be relevant to the items you are buying, when you shop online the Supermarket will alert you to any special offers on the goods you are
36、 already buying. Its far less stressful than fighting with the crowds on a Saturday afternoon, time which can better spent with your family and friends, summer is coming where would you rather be? For a small charge its delivered to your door at a time that suits you, for the echo conscious this is
37、great too as one van takes 20 cars of the road. The more you use online shopping the easier it gets, you last shopping list will be stored and ready to reorder once you have made any adjustments you need.The Retail industry is no stranger to “creative destruction,” the economic process, coined by Jo
38、seph Shumpeter, of “industrial mutation” which “incessantly revolutionizes the economic structure from within, incessantly destroying the old one, incessantly creating a new one.”Many have heralded eCommerce as the next disruptive force that will recreate Retail by obliterating bricks-and-mortar sto
39、res. Indeed, for the last 15 years, the online onslaught of “store-less” titans like Amazon and Netflix have in fact decimated neighborhood icons like the bookstore, the record store and the DVD rental.However, as I haveargued before, the new “trend” in technology does not have to be simply destroy
40、and replace. Rather, when innovative leaders can cross-pollinate disruptive technologies into traditional industries, there can be evolution and not just revolution. This is precisely what is happening in Retail today. While the industry is certainly undergoing massive disruption, the transformation
41、 will not lead to just a pure virtual commerce existence. Rather, the strong benefits of online, which come mainly from digitization, will be married with the very human need for physical and local experiences to create a more efficient and more wonderful shopping experience. This is a win for the c
42、onsumer, and for the new breed of retailers that will digitize all aspects of their business but use this to understand and be where consumers shop. They will be able to better meet and exceed customer expectations and create a differentiating value proposition that leads to an overall better brand experience and longer term sustainable profitability.
