Job Finding Made Easier
Thanks to the internet, the chances of you finding a job has increased. The morning paper is not your sole source for job openings. You can turn your computer on and click away. Just be on the proper attitude – that is, open to any opportunity that will present itself to you.
Because of the need to find a stable income, hosting sites invest on job search pages. There are so many job finder home pages out there. To make it easier for you (and more organized), try registering to a couple of these sites.
There are so many advantages and benefits the minute you register. You will be updated on the job openings. You will receive mailing updates on what is out there fore you. You can post your resume online all for the hiring managers to see.
Basically, most job finder web pages have the same procedures. Here’s a run through.
1. After you have successfully registered and uploaded your resume, you are given access to check out what the available positions out there. There is a tiny box on the home page that says “Job Category.” Now this option allows you to scroll down because there are many topics under it.
Example:
– Architecture and Engineering
– Arts, Design, Entertainment and Media
– Building, Ground, Maintenance and Cleaning
– Business and Financial Operations
– Community and Social Services
– Computer and Mathematical
– Construction and Extraction
– Education, Training and Library
– Farming, Fishing and Forestry
– Food and Lodging
– Healthcare
– Installation, Maintenance and Repair
– Legal
– Life, Physical and Social Science
– Management
– Nursing
– Office and Administrative Support
– Personal Care
– Production
– Protective Services
– Sales
– Service and Gaming
– Transportation
With so many options out there, it’s impossible not to have a job. After selecting which category your skills are most likely in tune with, you wait for the available results.
Or to make it easier, you are given the next option to narrow down the search engine results by selecting a particular US zip code. Because America is so big, you wouldn’t want to spend precious time flipping page after page of openings for a job you are interested in but located in another state.
Try applying to as many opening as possible. Take the task seriously though. Do not be trigger-happy when it comes to sending your resume. Chances are these companies will be interested in you, therefore scheduling an appointment with you. When they do, make sure that you keep it.
If you fail to keep an appointment, there is a possibility that the job finder home page you are a member of will blacklist you in their community. One of the terms and agreements that you claim to be alright with upon registering is that you will always stick to the appointments that have been presented to you. Stay true to your word then.
Another option that can present you with more opportunities, aside from putting your resume online, is by creating your cover letter. Normally, a cover letter is submitted alongside the resume so it only makes perfect sense if hiring managers, agencies or potential employers prefer to take a peek at it as well.
At least with the cover letter, you will be able to convey to potential employers your traits and qualities that make you suitable for the position you are applying for. It also lets you elaborate further on your achievements and on what you can offer to the company.
Now, aren’t you glad all these can be done online?

Can Airplane Black Boxes be made easier to find?
I am not an engineer nor a scientist but it just seems to me with all the technology currently available to us why can’t they be made easier to find? Why not add a GPS tracking devise to them, so you can track them use a GPS system to track it? Why not make it with a non sinkable floating out shelf that in the case of the Air France Flight 447 can float and be found a lot easier? It would be interesting to hear an opinion from an engineer on this topic.
Good point. I want to know why Fed Express and UPS can track the exact location of their trucks at any given minute (even tell how long the drivers take for lunch) so why can’t the airplanes emit a GPS signal so their location can be determined. It’s satellite gps which covers every square meter of the planet. Least this would give the last known location and make the search easier.
As far as keeping it from sinking – as long as it’s in the interior of the aircraft it’s going to sink with the aircraft.

maybe they shoulnt paint them black. nye hehehe….
maybe orange nyeh hehee….
but yeh i guess that the gps stuff they could put in em would wonk after a plane crash or a the bottom of the sea…. they usually do find them but they cant actually get to them, again being at the bottom of the sea….

Take step back and think this through.
First, in a plane crash, most of the time the DFDR and CVR ARE destroyed, they are not as indestructible as some think. Only the memory with data is recoverable.
Next, most likely in case of a major crash the GPS locator would be damaged or destroyed in the crash and/or fire, rendering it useless.
If a plane crashes on land, That big smoking hole is going to tell you just where its at.
If it goes down in the ocean, a GPS is totally useless at the bottom of the ocean.
So where is the cost effective advantage to placing an additional piece of expensive equipment onboard the aircraft.

The boxes are probably mixed up with the wreckage so its unlikely that they would rise if they floated. They *DO* send out a signal so they can be located. The problem is trying to pick up that signal 10’s of thousands of feet below the water.

They are relatively easy to find, if you know the general area where you should be searching.
Problem is usually not finding them but retrieval.
Making them float is utterly impractical. They’d get far too large to be fitted into an aircraft, and probably too fragile too.
And it wouldn’t work anyway as the boxes are contained within the aircraft fuselage, so they’d never be able to float to the surface anyway.
GPS of course is nonsense. A GPS receiver is a passive system, it doesn’t transmit.
The devices are already fitted with locator beacons, adding GPS coordinates to those signals would do very little.
And making them send a stronger signal via satellite transmitters would require way too much power, causing the locator to run out of battery power too soon.
