Landing a job doesn’t have to be difficult and it doesn’t have to be stressful either. In fact, there are so many things that you can do to try and make sure that your job interview is everything that you hoped it would be! Here are our top 3 tips.
 Career gaps on a resume are always a worry when it comes to the interview process. No matter what’s behind them, most employers will look at significant gaps as a bad sign. And, in most cases, they’re right. More often than not, career gaps happen for two significant reasons. One, is that you’ve been unable to find work for a while. This doesn’t bode well for obvious reasons. There is often a second reason. This is that you left your previous job in a hurry. This can happen for many reasons. Dismissal, for instance, is often behind gaps like these. Or, it may be that you went up against your boss for ill-treatment or had a hostile work environment that you just had to exit.
On the face of things, this is an admirable trait. No employee should be afraid to stand up for what they believe in. But, from an employer’s perspective, an issue like this can be an instant red flag. Does that mean you have to roll over and accept ill-treatment to secure future positions? Not at all. But, it does mean you may want to think about how you fight the battle. Luckily, we have a few pointers to help ensure you emerge unscathed.  Do you feel like your teamwork skills are lacking a little?

Working closely with other people is not always easy, However, that’s not an excuse for lacking people skills that are critical to making efficient teams. Honing in on these tips to be a better team player will help you throughout your career.
