now how to find job in this economy?

They damn cb, but what can fresh grads do...just restart your engines and shoot those resumes again, if you got an offer from pwc before, at least it shows your ability in interviews already

I am hoping to share three points of discussion. They are:

1. Change your resume
2. Take charge in interviews
3. Managing your mindset

**PS: In all honesty, I believe your resume is a key to unlock the HR department door. For once, put yourself in their shoe and ask yourself, from a whole stack of resume application which will defintely catch your eye?
(a) A generic style template, or (b) one with colours and great design that is sure to catch your attention.

Whoever you are, thank you very much for the much needed wake-up call. Been job hunting for a month so far, and while my resume wasn't the standard template, decided to give it a spruce up anyway with an eye-catching template and reduced clutter to just one page.

Hopefully everything will go well in this tough job market now.

Would like to ask people here regarding health insurance. I earn 5k a month, take home around 4k. I spend around 900 dollars on all my health insurance (including hospitalization, term and whole life plans). I have a whole life policy, the Aviva mindef term plan, a hospitalization plan (covers up to private hospital), as well as 2 different critical illness coverage plans.

I would like to ask if that is about right, or am I spending too much? (As at the end of the day, other than my whole life plan, there is no cash value to all my other policies..)
