When Is It Okay to Bad-Mouth a Past Employer - Walrath Recruiting, Inc.

When Is It Okay to Bad-Mouth a Past Employer - Walrath Recruiting, Inc. Workers can be laid off for a wide variety of reasons. Sometimes it has to do with a lack of performance, and other times it stems from personal differences in leadership  or work style. You wonder, at what point is it okay to speak the truth about how you were pushed out of a company? Surely the hiring manager will understand having likely worked in HR themselves. So when can you speak to how horrible you feel your past employer or boss was in a first interview? Never. While you should speak truthfully, its important not to be negative. Well explain why below. Keep Calm Carry On (Your Job Search) Before getting into why its not a good idea to bad-mouth past employers, well talk about why you should hold onto positive experiences. Its common to feel slighted whenever you are let go. The company may have been downsizing, or acquired, or maybe you didnt reach a monthly quota. For whatever reason, you are now looking for another job. While you may have good memories and experiences from that past job, theyre probably not at the forefront of your mind. However, its important that you hold onto them. Those positive experiences of growth, learning, and teamwork are what you will want to bring to interviews. Avoid bringing up the less friendly emotions resulting from  being out of a job. This is important for a few reasons. As weve mentioned in previous blogs, storytelling goes a long way in getting an interviewer on your side. Holding onto your best and most productive days in your last position are what will allow you to tell stories that will engage the interviewer and demonstrate your value as an employee. Being able to talk positively about your job shows the recruiter that you are focused on moving forward. Nobody is going to hire someone who still is holding onto a grudge from their last job. This brings us to the next point. You Only Hurt Yourself If you do wind up speaking ill of your past employer, it will do more damage to you then it does them, every time. No matter how wronged you feel, the interviewer is focused on you in this interview. Even when you bring up past positions and companies, they are all focused on seeing them through the lens of your employment. So if you speak negatively about a past company youve worked for, it only makes you look bad. Its a tough line to walk, but you have to be honest without speaking negatively. Its okay to say that you had creative differences, or different methodologies. They will most likely speak to your references (or already have). This means anything you say will be confirmed later, or already has been. Given that, take the opportunity to illustrate how you wish to improve and grow. If you were let go due to sub par performance, discuss how its motivated you to be a better worker. Find what is positive about the unfortunate circumstances, and show them that this has made you a good fit for the job you are looking at now. It can be tough to resist the urge to speak in a bad light about your past employer. However, if you are able to approach it tactfully, you will thank yourself when you are called in for a second  interview.

Scottish Enterprise Life Sciences Awards 2016

Scottish Enterprise Life Sciences Awards 2016 Scottish Enterprise Life Sciences Awards 2016 8 Feb 2016 Celebrating a fantastic evening at the Scottish Enterprise Life Sciences Awards 2016,  Julia Brown, Senior Director of LifeChemical Sciences at Scottish Enterprise  is our guest blogger and provides a roundup of the nights eventsinsights into the winners.     New Venue, New Format What better place to celebrate Scotland’s outstanding life sciences sector  than the National Museum of Scotland? The museum celebrates Scotland’s history of science and invention â€" and we gathered in the Grand Gallery to recognise the people and organisations that continue to build Scotland’s global reputation for life sciences. The new venue wasn’t the only change for Scotland’s Life Sciences Dinner and Annual Awards 2016: there was a new format too. The presentations were shorter, leaving much more time for the 800 attendees to network â€" allowing policy makers, investors, academic leaders and companies to forge new connections.   Recognising Scotland’s excellence in life sciences But it wasn’t all chit-chat. The awards recognise the success and achievements of Scotland’s internationally-renowned life sciences sector in areas including innovation, investment, community engagement and collaboration. They also focus on the ongoing work of Scottish Enterprise and its partners to grow and develop a sustainable, globally competitive life sciences sector in Scotland. It’s a pleasure to congratulate this year’s winners. The quality of the finalists and winners was outstanding and is testament to the strength of the Scottish life sciences industry. So who won which award, and what for?   Life Sciences Business Leadership: Dr Tom Stratford, ProStrakan Becoming one of Europe’s fastest-growing pharmaceutical companies doesn’t happen by accident. Much of ProStrakan’s success is down to the exceptional leadership of CEO Dr Tom Stratford, who has steered the company since its acquisition in 2011 by Japan-based Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co. This award recognises Dr Stratford’s contribution to the Scottish economy, the Scottish life sciences sector and to the wellbeing of patients internationally.   Life Sciences Entrepreneurial Business Leadership: Prof Martin Tangney and Mark Simmers The award for entrepreneurship went to Prof Martin Tangney and Mark Simmers, for their work on industrial biotechnology for Celtic Renewables. Professor Tangey is Director of the Biofuel Research Centre at Edinburgh Napier University, and an internationally recognised expert in microbial biofuel production. Mark is co-founder and CEO of Celtic Renewables, and together they have developed a way to make biofuel from the residues of Scotch whisky production. We can all raise a glass to that.   Investment of the Year: Novabiotics Novabiotics develops antifungal and antibacterial therapeutics for the treatment of cystic fibrosis, and secured £5 million investment from high profile Woodford Investment Management in 2015. That takes its total funding to £17 million, allowing the company to take its treatment through the next phase of clinical trials â€" and earning it the award of Investment of the Year.                                                                                                 Innovation Award: Ripptide Pharma The life sciences sector abounds with innovations â€" choosing one for this award was difficult. It went, in the end, to Ripptide Pharma for their novel method of drug discovery, allowing potential oral treatments for inflammation, autoimmune disease and cancer. Ripptide was formed by two leading academic groups, led by Professor Jim Naismith from the University of St Andrews, and Professor Marcel Jaspars, University of Aberdeen.   Innovative Collaboration The prize for innovative collaboration went to a consortium set up to produce domesticated, disease-free farmed wrasse for Scotland’s fish farming industry. It was established in 2012, and brings together leading UK wrasse researchers at the University of Stirling’s Institute of Aquaculture, the Scottish Aquaculture Innovation Centre, world-leading salmon producers Marine Harvest Scotland and Scottish Seafarms, and feed manufacturer BioMar. Collaborating across the supply chain has given this consortium a unique perspective for innovative change.   Community Engagement: Easter Bush Campus The prize for community engagement was awarded to The Easter Bush Campus, which houses The Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, The Roslin Institute, and Scotland’s Rural College. It’s the largest concentration of animal science related expertise in Europe, bringing together a community of 2,000 researchers, clinicians, students and support staff.   Export and international trade: Vascutek For Renfrewshire-based Vascutek, exports accounted for 91% of the company’s global sales revenue in the year ending March 2015. The company’s 700-strong workforce is highly skilled, manufacturing products that include polyester surgical grafts and endovascular stent grafts, which are shipped to over 90 countries. That level of exporting activity makes this prize well deserved.   Outstanding Contribution to Life Sciences in Scotland: David Sibbald, Aridhia Finally, the award for outstanding contribution to the sector went to Dr David Sibbald, Co-founder and Chairman of Aridhia. The company develops world-leading technology to support the management of chronic diseases â€" and accelerate the translation of precision medicine and biomedical research into clinical practice. It was a wonderful evening â€" and a chance to recognise the great people working in life sciences in Scotland. And once the clapping’s over and the hubbub has died down, we can look forward to building on this success for 2016.   Find out more about how we support Scotland’s life sciences on the Scottish Enterprise website

5 choices youll regret forever

5 decisions you'll lament for eternity 5 decisions you'll lament for eternity Our days are loaded up with a steady stream of choices. Most are unremarkable, however some are imperative to such an extent that they can frequent you for the remainder of your life.A ongoing investigation from Columbia University found that we're stalled by in excess of 70 choices per day. The sheer number of choices we need to make every day prompts a wonder called choice exhaustion, whereby your mind really tires like a muscle.A new examination from the University of Texas shows that in any event, when our cerebrums aren't worn out, they can make it extremely hard for us to use sound judgment. When settling on a choice, rather than referencing the information we've gathered, our cerebrums center around explicit, itemized memories.For model, in case you're purchasing another vehicle and attempting to choose if you ought to go for the calfskin seats, despite the fact that you realize you can't bear the cost of it, your mind may concentrate on recollections of the magnificent smell and feel of the cowhide situates in your sibling's games vehicle, when it ought to be centered around the wretchedness you're going to encounter when making your month to month vehicle installments. Since you don't have recollections of this yet, it's a hard thing for your cerebrum to contemplate.I am not a result of my conditions. I am a result of my choices. â€" Stephen CoveySome choices are minor, for example, what to eat, which course to head to work, or in what request to handle errands; others are increasingly troublesome, for example, picking between two propositions for employment, regardless of whether to move to another city for somebody you love, or whether to remove a poisonous individual of your life. Notwithstanding the size of the choice, our cerebrums make it difficult for us to keep the point of view we have to make great choices.Bronnie Ware spent her vocation as a palliative consideration nurture, working only with individuals who were 3 to a year from death. She made a propensity for getting some information about their most prominent second thoughts, and she heard a similar five laments over and over. By examining these second thoughts, you can verify that you use sound judgment and don't succumb to them yourself.They wish they hadn't settled on choices dependent on what others thinkWhen you settle on your choices dependent on others' feelings, two things will in general occur: You make a poor vocation choice: There are an excessive number of individuals out there who read for a degree they lament or even spent their lives seeking after a profession they lament. Regardless of whether you're looking for parental endorsement or seeking after compensation and distinction over enthusiasm, settling on a poor vocation decision is a choice that will live with you for eternity. You neglect to maintain your morals: When you get excessively made up for lost time in what your manager considers you, how much cash you think your life partner should be upbeat, or how terrible you will look in the event that you fall flat, you are at high danger of damaging your own ethics. Your extraordinary want to make yourself look good compromises your capacity to remain consistent with yourself and, eventually, to feel great. The most ideal approach to abstain from falling prey to the assessments of others is to understand that others' suppositions are only that-feelings. Notwithstanding how extraordinary or awful they think you are, that is just their conclusion. Your actual self-esteem originates from within.They wish they hadn't worked so hardWorking hard is an incredible method to affect the world, to learn, to develop, to feel achieved, and now and again even to discover satisfaction, yet it turns into an issue when you do as such to the detriment of the individuals nearest to you. Amusingly, we frequently make a solid effort to bring in cash for the individuals we care about without understanding that they esteem our organization more than cash. The key is to discover a harmony between doing what you love and being with your loved ones. Else you'll think back one day and wish you'd concentrated more on the latter.They wish they had communicated their feelingsWe're educated as youngsters that feeling s are perilous and that they should be contained and controlled. This generally works from the outset, yet putting away your sentiments makes them develop until they emit. The best thing you can do is to put your sentiments legitimately on the table. In spite of the fact that it's excruciating to start, it constrains you to be completely forthright and transparent.For model, in the event that you feel as if you don't bring in enough cash at work, plan a gathering with your chief and propose why you believe you're worth more. Subsequently, she will either concur with you and give you a raise or differ and mention to you what you do need to do to turn out to be progressively significant. Then again, in the event that you don't do anything and let your sentiments rot, this will frustrate your exhibition and keep you from arriving at your goal.They wish they had kept in contact with their friendsWhen you become involved with your week by week schedule, it's anything but difficult to dis miss how notable individuals are to you, particularly those you possess to make energy for. Associations with old companions are among the principal things to tumble off the table when we're occupied. This is lamentable in light of the fact that investing energy with companions is a significant pressure buster. Dear companions bring you vitality, new points of view, and a feeling of having a place, such that nobody else can.They wish they had left themselves alone happyWhen your life is going to end, all the challenges you've confronted out of nowhere become unimportant contrasted with the great occasions. This is on the grounds that you understand that, as a rule, enduring is a decision. Lamentably, a great many people understand this extremely late. In spite of the fact that we as a whole definitely experience torment, how we respond to our agony is totally heavily influenced by us, similar to our capacity to encounter satisfaction. Figuring out how to snicker, grin, and be cheerf ul (particularly when pushed) is a test on occasion, however it's one that merits each ounce of effort.Bringing it all togetherSome choices have repercussions that can endure forever. The vast majority of these choices are made every day, and they require center and point of view to shield them from frequenting you.This article previously showed up on LinkedIn.
