Tips For Job seekers

Top tips for asking an employer questions in a job interview

Here are some things to keep in mind before we get to the list of questions you should ask in a job interview:
Do not say that you have no questions. “Nope, I’m good” is probably already something you know to be the worst thing you could say, no matter how worried or relaxed you are or how sure you are that you’ll get the job done.

Best questions to ask about the job

What does a typical day or week look like in this role? (Or one of these alternatives.)
What are the most immediate projects that need to be addressed?
Can you show me examples of projects I’d be working on?
What are the skills and experiences you’re looking for in an ideal candidate?
What attributes does someone need to have in order to be really successful in this position?
What types of skills is the team missing that you’re looking to fill with a new hire?
What are the biggest challenges that someone in this position would face?
What sort of budget would I be working with?
Is this a new role or will I be taking over for an employee who’s leaving?
How does this position contribute to the company overall?
Do you expect the main responsibilities for this position to change in the next six months to a year?

Standards of living: Southerners live the longest?

According to an article in The Economist about the standards of living and populations with the longest lifespans, people not only live to old age in rich countries like Switzerland and Singapore, but also in relatively poorer nations like Italy, Spain, and Greece.

As a Greek lover, I believe that life’s pace is slow and full of beauty. While taking in the scenery, they eat sea food and delicious fruit. On some islands, the major event is the picking of the olives in December. Life stretches thick and thin, and it is almost uneventful. In other words, stressful events do not emerge. I always admire this quality in Southerners: to focus only on the blissful side of life, surrounded by their extended families. Indeed, I agree that sun, olive oil, social life, delicious food, the views, and salty air all contribute to a better and longer life.

As a tourist, I travel to Greece twice a year. My observations are as follows: The Greeks are very light-hearted and happy, and they do not take themselves or others too seriously. Perhaps life in Athens is unique and different, given its status as a metropolis with more than 3 million inhabitants, but on the islands, time appears to have paused amidst the enchanting scenery.
The Greek cuisine is something that I am in love with. Greek cuisine is not only healthier than Italian cuisine, but it is also delicious.
My perception may be influenced by a tourist’s rose-tinted glasses, but I like the Greeks’ tranquilly. Nobody seemed to be stressed.

AI Writing or Copywriting?

This is a poem I wrote a long time ago:

The Moon

In the evening
with my eyelashes
I kill all the events of the day
I choke perceptions and
reveries green
That could be real
Pending dream.

In the evening
with my fingers

I spin yarns
For your sweet bedlams…

This is a poem written by AI (Gemini) following the prompt below:

Write a poem about the moon in the style of Emily Dickinson.

A Pearl upon the Velvet Night –
A Lady, shy, in gown of mist,
Her Carriage drawn by spectral light,
Across the wide, star-dusted tryst.

No Coachman bold, nor Steed of fire,
She pilots with a silent hand,
A Beacon, cold, with keen desire,
To pierce the secrets of the land.

The sleeping flowers, unaware,
Unfurl beneath her watchful eye,
And lovers, lost in moonlit snare,
Believe they share her secrecy.

A smile, perhaps, the clouds enfold,
A tear, a crescent, sharp and bright –
The Moon, a story yet untold,
In realms beyond the reach of sight.

What are your fears about AI?

If you don’t master it, it will master you.

Progress is everything. AI is progress. Therefore, AI will be in everything. I love progress and new things.
Nevertheless, new things create new questions..

Will bots replace you? Is using ChatGPT to compose an email ethical? Eat rocks if Google’s searchbot says so? (No.)

Despite adults’ concerns, many youngsters are already experiencing generative AI. Snapchat and Instagram have it; iPhones and Chromebooks will get it.

“More than a decade on, adults are still trying to unravel what smartphones and social media did—and do—to young people,” If anything, worry over their impact on youth and mental health has increased. Today’s parents face various tech backlash waves due to AI.

Of sure, worries are valid. Young people may benefit from AI: using it ethically and under surveillance could be the answer.

Many a time, I have asked myself this question: How will AI shape our lives? Will it also transform our mental lives? Maybe. However, the foundation of such physical realities is neither solid nor sturdy. However, AI can influence our perceptions, causing us to see what we want to see rather than what is actually in front of us. Or, the other way around. Because sometimes we see what we want to see and not what is in front of us. 
We are humans, not robots.

In my opinion, the AI can shape realities from the point of view of perceptions.
We have access to a vast amount of information. What will we do with it?

We live in the age of choices.
“Beyond the age of information is the age of choices.” – Charles Eames

Might micromanagement be dead?

On LinkedIn, there are numerous posts about productivity and the thin line between professional and personal life. There are also many opinions on how to manage increased responsibilities.

I always fulfill my responsibilities and go above and beyond. I love my jobs, and I am not in need of someone to tell me what I have to do. This is my approach, as I sometimes operate independently.
I may have a biased approach because I set my own tasks and maintain a weekly to-do list; however, I firmly believe that a truly motivated individual can effortlessly and responsibly handle tasks.

So, motivation is the key to many doors. I am highly motivated because I love what I do, even if sometimes I do not have free time on my hands and I lack prioritizing (that is something I must work on).

I agree that it’s important to complete tasks within your own timeframe, meet expectations, and move on. I work hard while also having a personal life and maintaining my emotional standard of living. I maintain both professional and emotional standards. If I am worried, stressed, or upset, my productivity suffers. When my collaborators set up tasks predictably, I appreciate it most. If they inform me beforehand, I can meet any deadlines.

Furthermore, might micromanagement be dead? Just a thought…

What are the free and paid keyword research tools?

Keyword research is a crucial part of any SEO strategy. It helps you understand what people are searching for online, so you can create content that targets those keywords. There are a number of excellent free and paid keyword research tools available.
Another tactic that I employ is to check out the competition. First, I identify their keywords, and second, I determine if I can compete on those keywords or keyphrases.
I value keyword competitiveness analysis over keyword discovery.

Is it worth targeting the same keywords as the competition?

We provide our clients with a free SEO audit that contains the answers.

Free Keyword Research Tools

Moz Keyword Explorer
Moz offers a free version of their Keyword Explorer tool, which allows you to see up to 10 keyword suggestions and 10 SERP analyses per month. This is a great option for beginners who are just getting started with keyword research.

Google Keyword Planner
Google Keyword Planner is a free tool from Google that can be used to research keywords for paid advertising campaigns. However, it can also be a valuable tool for SEO. With Google Keyword Planner, you can see average monthly search volume for keywords, as well as competition levels.

Google Search Console
Google Search Console is a free tool from Google that provides you with a wealth of information about your website’s traffic, including the keywords that people are using to find your site. You can use this information to identify new keyword opportunities and track your progress over time.

Soovle
Soovle is a great tool for finding suggested keywords from a variety of sources, including Google, YouTube, Amazon, and Bing. This can be a helpful way to brainstorm new keyword ideas.

Paid Keyword Research Tools

Semrush
Semrush is an all-in-one SEO toolkit that includes a powerful keyword research tool. With Semrush, you can see keyword search volume, competition levels, keyword difficulty, and much more.

Ahrefs
Ahrefs is another popular SEO toolkit that includes a comprehensive keyword research tool. With Ahrefs, you can see keyword search volume, competition levels, keyword difficulty, and a variety of other metrics.

KWFinder
KWFinder is a more affordable paid keyword research tool that offers many of the same features as Semrush and Ahrefs. KWFinder is a good option for small businesses and individual bloggers who are looking for a powerful keyword research tool without the high price tag.

The best keyword research tool for you will depend on your specific needs and budget. If you are just starting out, a free tool like Moz Keyword Explorer or Google Keyword Planner may be all you need. However, if you are serious about SEO, you may want to consider investing in a paid tool like Semrush or Ahrefs.

Trees

“You look at trees and called them “trees,” and probably you do not think twice about the word. You call a star a “star,” and think nothing more of it. But you must remember that these words, “tree,” “star,” were (in their original forms) names given to these objects by people with very different views from yours. To you, a tree is simply a vegetable organism, and a star simply a ball of inanimate matter moving along a mathematical course. But the first men to talk of “trees” and “stars” saw things very differently. To them, the world was alive with mythological beings. They saw the stars as living silver, bursting into flame in answer to the eternal music. They saw the sky as a jeweled tent, and the earth as the womb whence all living things have come. To them, the whole of creation was “myth-woven and elf patterned.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

Nosferatu: Robert Eggers’ Gothic Masterpiece!

Do you like horror gothic tales?

Nosferatu, Robert Eggers’ Gothic Masterpiece will be released next year!

Of course, the setting is Transilvania…
Inspired by FW Murnau’s silent German Expressionist classic of the same name, Nosferatu is a gothic horror about a vampire who travels to Germany in pursuit of a beautiful young woman.

The 1922 film opens in the fictional 19th-century German town of Wisborg, where the menacing estate agent Knock is preparing to send an employee, Thomas Hutter, to meet a beguiling new client who lives in a castle deep in the Transylvanian mountains. Upon arrival, Hutter is intrigued and then frightened by Count Orlok’s behaviour: he sleeps by day in a coffin; tries to suck Hutter’s blood after he accidentally cuts his finger; and then catches sight of a photograph of Hutter’s wife, Ellen, with whom he becomes obsessed. Orlok then sails to Wisborg to stalk her, and leaves a trail of destruction in his wake.
