7 tips for overcoming apathy

A memorable weekend

After a hard working week, of course, it's nice to just do nothing: get enough sleep, lie on the couch, watch TV or surf the Internet for your pleasure. However, the weekend will pass quickly, and on Monday it will seem to you that you did not have time. And you will not think about work, but about how to rewind time back. Therefore, try to plan at least one significant event for the weekend so that you don’t regret the time lost on Monday.
Get ready in advance

Saying goodbye to the bed on Monday is very difficult. Therefore, prepare in the evening everything you need that you need on the first day of the work week. Rushing around the apartment in search of a shirt, being late and neglecting breakfast - not a very good start to the day.
Unfinished business

If you still have open questions from last week, then try to give them a little attention on the weekend. This does not mean that the whole weekend should be devoted to work - spend about 20 minutes on it. This is enough to decide on the way to solve them and prepare a little, even if mentally. But on Monday to start it will be much easier.
Adhere to the regime

Do not radically change the regime of the day. Nobody forbids to go to bed late and get up on Sunday at three in the afternoon, but how does this affect you on Monday?
Start the day in advance

It seems strange, but worth a try. Wake up in advance, at least 30 minutes earlier than usual. Turn on your favorite music, make a cup of coffee, take a walk and slowly adjust yourself to a working rhythm.
Distribute tasks

Try not to start the day with important things that require a lot of effort. Devote the first half of the day to less significant tasks that do not require special intellectual expenses: disassemble mail, papers, arrange meetings, distribute tasks for a week, etc.
Good ending of the day

Knowing that something good is waiting for you on Monday evening will certainly cheer you up. Plan ahead what you love in advance: going to the cinema, meeting with a friend, get ready for a delicious dinner, and Monday will no longer seem so gray.

Important hiring rules

It doesn’t matter who you are: a manager, a salesman or an accountant, you automatically adapt to the situation and get used to the local communication culture. We become hostages to certain unspoken corporate charters, we get used to the standards of interaction adopted there, which may not be clear in other conditions. And being in a new environment, for example, at an interview in another company, we inertia behave in the usual way, forgetting about generally accepted standards of behavior. Work.ua highlighted the main mistakes that candidates often make when communicating with the employer:     The candidate seeks to answer the interviewer's questions as quickly as possible. Often without listening to or even interrupting the interlocutor. Perhaps the specifics of his previous work obliged him to do so, but the interviewer will conclude that the candidate is not used to thinking before speaking and acting.     Answering questions, the candidate goes to extr...

Tips for just starting your career

Tip one Revaluation of its value in the labor market is an eternal problem of young specialists who, basically, have practically no work experience. Not all employers are ready to hire employees without the slightest work experience, and those who still take risks do this with the realization that almost everyone will have to learn a young man. Well, for all of us, it has long been known that education in our country is not so high-quality, and a person with a manager or economist diploma will not be able to immediately take the desired position, since, simply put, his knowledge will be enough for a maximum of work Secretary. In order to be successful graduates of eminent universities, you have to sweat no less than graduates of technical schools. People who have already tried their hand at the work of an economist or manager are well aware that their knowledge is not enough, and it is not worth applying for a high salary.
