  • Getting Noticed: 5 Keys to Creating an Outstanding Resume - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    When you’re job-hunting, you know that you have to make yourself stand out from the other applicants, but in today’s tough economy that can be exceptionally difficult. HR departments and hiring managers are inundated with resumes when a job posting comes out. However, your resume is your only chance to stand out and land your dream job. Therefore, you have to make sure that your resume allows you to stand out from the crowd. 
    For this reason, it’s crucial that your resume is impeccable before submitting it. So how do you create this impeccable resume?
    First…
    1. You tailor it
    Every time you find a job you want to apply for, you should tailor your resume to match that job. Submitting a standard template resume to every position isn’t going to make you stand out. Recruiters are looking for concrete examples of the responsibilities and skills that their job requires, which mean that you will need to modify your resume every time you submit it.  
    While it may be time consuming, it also benefits you in the sense that you will have to figure out what the position values for their team and what will be expected of you. This will show the hiring recruiter that you are the perfect fit for the job. 
    2. Use keywords 
    Look, recruiters are busy people and they have a lot of resumes to go through. Unfortunately this mans that most of them are not going to read your resume in its entirety. This is even more likely if you’re applying at a large company that uses a resume filtering software. These include those infuriating applications that make you fill out your entire resume in sections and then submit the resume anyway. In these cases, the software will be looking for appropriate keywords to push your resume through as viable. No keywords? The recruiter may never even see your resume.
    3. Show don’t tell
    Instead of just listing the ways you helped your company, show it. The skills section on your resume is one of the most important, however, hiring recruiters need to see examples of what exactly you did to earn those skills. Instead of simply saying that you helped increase your companies’ social media following by 8,000—explain how you did that. Giving examples is a sure fire way to impress recruiters and instil confidence in your ability to do the job. 
    4. Use some design skill
    While we don’t encourage you to go over the top with this one, using a simple and tasteful header on your resume that includes your name, address, and professional title. Modifying a classic resume template this way is a great way to stand out from the pile. Find examples of resume headers to inspire you and give you a better understanding of what you should design.
    5. Proofread!
    It should go without saying, but many people still fail to adequately proofread their resume before submitting it. Even if you’re not applying for a writing job, having a grammatical or spelling error in your resume suggests lack of attention to detail and someone who rushes their work—something no employer wants on board.

  • Oklahoma’s Deadliest Oil Rig Explosion in Years - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    In January of this year, five bodies were recovered from one of the deadliest oil rig explosions in Oklahoma since 2010, when the Deepwater Horizon accident happened in the Gulf of Mexico. The rig that exploded was owned by Houston’s Patterson-UTI, which is one of the largest hydraulic and drilling companies in the United States. The explosion was so horrific that the burned bodies could not be recovered from the flames for days. 
    Patterson-UTI has been working overtime for a decade to revamp its image because they were once known as one of the worst offenders when it came to safety in the energy industry, but their adherence to safety may be called into question once again.
    The explosion is an obvious setback to Patterson-UTI Energy which has tried very hard to restore its image in the industry over the past decade. Known as one of the worst of the worst energy companies in terms of safety, it has worked tirelessly to clean things up and to restore itself as a reputable business, but it may now be even more of a challenge.
    The accident happened at the drilling site of Quinton, Oklahoma, just about one hundred miles outside of Tulsa. There were over twenty workers present at the site at the time of the explosion. Luckily, 16 of them were able to flee and were spared without any major injuries. There was just one Patterson-UTI employee who was lifted by air to the hospital, but after being treated, he was released.
    In the 2000s, Patterson-UTI had the most fatalities of any other work side in the United States. In 2008, a report was released on the Senate floor indicating that there were 12 workers killed at the Texas drilling site in a four-year span.
    Although aware of its indiscretions, Patterson-UTI’s practices didn’t cease to end in tragedy. According to OSHA, Patterson-UTI’s accidents have been less frequent, but still continued to happen. In 2010, a worker was killed at the rig site near San Antonio, and in August of the following year, another fatality occurred at the rig near Carrizo Springs.
    There was also a citation in 2012 when a worker fell off a rig and to his death. Federal investigators noted that the beams of the rig were so caked with oil that they were barely visible, which was likely the cause for the worker’s fall. 
    Hendricks, the CEO who came onboard in 2012 as the company was trying to restore their reputation, maintains that the company has spent more than $150 million trying to upgrade their equipment and enhance safety training to reduce workplace hazards. The company has instilled a “stop work” if any hazard is noticed, whereby everyone on the rig is supposed to cease operations immediately.
    The rig that exploded was operated by Red Mountain Energy and had drilled nearly two and half miles underground, at which point, the explosion happened. The youngest of the victims of the explosion was 26-year-old Cody Risk, who had only been working with with the company for two weeks when the explosion happened.
    The death of this young worker has enlivened some debate about training periods and the risk that new workers pose to industries, particularly industries that involve manual labor. Workers are in short supply, so most of the people who are working on rigs don’t have the experience or industry knowledge to be there, but are there anyway.
    Authorities believe that since Patterson-UTI has begun to clean up their act, things have become more safer in the oil rig industry. They were doing a fairly good job of restoring their reputation in the industry and had an increasingly positive record of worker safety until the recent incident in January. 
    Although it is not acceptable to lose anyone in an oil rig explosion, oil rigging is a very dangerous industry and workers who sign up for the job are aware of the risks. …

  • Caring for Loved Ones as They Age - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    Life expectancy in the United States has been increasing. Older Americans comprise a larger percentage of the population than ever before. While this longevity is certainly something to celebrate, it also important to realize that family dynamics change as parents reach their senior years and grown children have to help their parents in new ways. An estimated 10 million children over the age of 50 are now caring for their aging parents.
     Taking Care of Health
    As people age, they typically experience an increase in medical issues. Help your parents find reliable, trustworthy doctors who can address these issues and help your parents stay as healthy and able-bodied as possible. For example, 50 percent of Americans age 75 and older experience disabling hearing loss. Providing your loved ones with audiology care and perhaps even hearing aids can help them overcome hearing loss. Many people also experience a need for increased dental care as they get older. Again, you will want to make sure your loved one is provided with the medical attention they need, whether they just need routine check-ups or perhaps even dentures. Go with your loved ones to doctors’ appointments. You will be able to help explain how your family member has been in regards to his or her health. It is also helpful to have an extra set of ears at the appointment so you can help your loved one remember what the doctor said. You can even take notes to ensure that nothing is forgotten.
    Your parents are also likely to take more medications as they get older. It is important to be aware of what medications they are taking, what the medications are for, and possible side effects. MedlinePlus is a database provided through the National Institutes of Health. This resource has all sorts of information about every drug that has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, making it a wonderful tool for researching the medications your loved ones are taking.
    Talk to your parents about giving you access to their medical information. The Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) ensure privacy of health information. However, by signing a form at the doctor’s office, your parents can give you access to their medical information, which can be quite helpful when caring for them. Discuss obtaining power of attorney for healthcare for your parents. This allows you to make health decisions for your parents if they are unable to do so.
    Considering Assisted Living
    As your loved ones age, they may gradually need more and more care. At some point, you may want to move your parents into an assisted living facility, where a staff on hand 24 hours a day. If your loved one requires assisted living, find a reliable and comfortable place for them to live such as Victoria Mews Assisted Living. Homes like this balance independence with assistance. Residents can enjoy private suites, laundry services, a variety of dining options, a library, a chapel, and a therapy center, along with other accommodations. Finding a home that offers a wide variety of amenities will mean your loved one has everything he or she needs right there, and this allows them to continue to have the level of independence they desire. Be sure you do your research before placing your family members in an assisted living facility; you want to make sure the home you choose is appropriate for the level of care your loved ones need.
    Balancing Finances
    Providing for loved ones can be expensive. Fortunately, there are several government programs that can help cut that costs. Medicare is a helpful option for many individuals with limited incomes. Not only does Medicare provide hospital and medical insurance, it can also cover prescription drugs. Medicaid is also a government-run program that provides health …

  • How to secure a lucrative career path - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    In order to secure a bright future, it is important that you have the necessary funds to support your dreams. There is no shame in admitting that you would like to make enough money to enjoy your perfect life. In fact, ambition, drive, and determination are all admirable qualities to have. It is also perfectly understandable that you would want to find a profession that pays well, as not doing so could leave you feeling undervalued and underappreciated. If you are going to spend a significant amount of time at work, it is only fair that you should be rewarded for your efforts. Below are nine steps that will help you to make this happen. 
    Choose the right profession
    The first step is to choose the right profession. If you are determined to bring in an impressive income, you need to select a career path that provides you with plenty of opportunities to make money. Often, this involves educating yourself so that you have specialist skills to offer your future employers. You should also be on the lookout for a profession that is experiencing a surge of success, as opposed to a dip in the market.
    Invest in your education
    The next step is to invest in your education. This is a fantastic way for you to increase your value as an employee. The more you know, the easier it will be for you to succeed in your new job. Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to stand out for all the right reasons, as your fellow workers may not possess the same knowledge or practical skills. If you decide to push forward with this approach, you will need to find a course that works for you. Luckily, in this digital age, there are so many options for you to choose from. For instance, if you are considering graduate programs in the field of legal studies, you should go online. This will allow you to further your education from the comfort of your own home. 
    Seek out relevant experience
    In addition to investing in your education, you should also endeavor to seek out relevant experience. Applying for a work experience placement or internship is a great way for you to build up your resume. It is also a brilliant opportunity for you to connect with relevant people in your industry. Eventually, this could result in you securing a lucrative position that you would have missed out on if not for your connections.  
    Work on your networking skills
    Regardless of whether or not you are a natural networker, it is vital that you keep going. Practice is everything if you want to improve your skillset. That is why you should set yourself the challenge of attending at least one networking event each month. This could involve anything from a business launch to an interesting presentation. Then, when you are in attendance, you should set yourself the further challenge of securing someone’s contact information. At first, you might be intimidated by the prospect, but before long you will know exactly how to get what you want. 
    Find ways to generate a second income
    Once you have secured a suitable position, you will need to find ways to generate a second income. Perhaps you could act as a consultant for another company. Or, maybe you could provide training sessions for other people in your industry. Of course, you don’t want to overwhelm yourself with a hectic schedule, but you also don’t want to waste your free time. 
    Think several steps ahead
    Another great tip is to think several steps ahead. In order to secure an impressive wage packet, you will need to keep your eyes fixed firmly on the future. This will give you the chance to prepare for exciting promotion opportunities. Instead of playing catch up, you should be doing your utmost to impress your employers from the get-go. Thinking ahead will also make it easier for you to weigh up the pros and cons of your career path. If …

  • Nissan: Nice Price, Nice Financing, Amazing Incentives - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    For those in the market for a new car, now is the time to take a look. With a rush to sell all the remaining 2017 vehicles on the lot, not only can you get an awesome deal on last years new car models, but you can cash in on incentives that carmakers are using to try to unload their 2018s as well. 
    If you are in the market for a new car, then taking a look at the Nissan is a great idea for an even better deal. April is the month to cash in and find the Nissan car of your dreams. The best part is that with all the promotions, deals, and incentives, the average car buyer can afford the Nissan that they might not have been able to just a few short months ago and drive away in their dream vehicle.
    Nissan lease specials are also amazing right now. They normally come in around $200 to $300 a month, and the lease term runs for as many as three years. In most instances, a person who wants to lease a new Nissan will need nothing more than $3500 down due at the signing of the lease. What is better than driving a brand new car? Not being responsible for the maintenance or the wear and tear when you are ready to move on to a different one. That is what makes leasing an awesome idea.
    If you are someone who is more apt to buy, then Nissan has awesome deals for you, too. Right now there are a ton of cash bonuses available, and the financing promotions that are being run can’t be beaten. The financing deals that the manufacturer is offering are well below what you can get if you secure your loan from a different institution. 
    So is it smarter to buy or lease?
    Leasing is highly attractive to those who are looking for lower monthly payments, but unable to afford the car that they want to buy. If you are someone who tends to trade your car in after only a couple of years, then a lease term is ideal. 
    Never being fully invested in a car and being able to trade it in without a loss in value is a really good thing for most young car buyers. If you lease a car, you don’t have to worry about things like a down payment, and you also don’t have to incur the cost of depreciation, which happens the minute you drive your car off of the car lot. 
    For someone who has a very limited budget, leasing might seem like the perfect option for getting themselves into a new car. 
    The problem with a lease is that if you drive a lot, you might run into trouble. Leases typically only have a certain number of allowable miles per year. If you go over that range, then you are going to be penalized. The penalties for going over the allowed mileage can be pretty steep, with as much as twenty cents per mile being tacked on when you go to turn in your leased car.
    If the idea of owning your vehicle is more appealing, many leases offer the chance for consumers to purchase the vehicle they are leasing. If you want to skip right to buying options, there are opportunities.
    If you are in the market for a new car, right now might be a better time to buy than to lease. Nissan is running amazing financing options with the average price range of a new car being anywhere from $23,000-$30,000, which makes a Nissan highly affordable. For those who have good credit, you might end up paying as little as 0% interest for a while, which is tantamount to free money. 
    Although the 0% interest won’t last forever, if you have a problem paying the total amount, you can always get a traditional loan to pay off the remainder when the financing is up and you will still have driven the car interest-free for a good chunk of time.
    Right now is an awesome time to get yourself into a new 2017 or a new 2018 Nissan car. Looking to maximize the spring market and to clear inventory from their car lots, Nissan Maxima Richmond dealers are offering amazing incentives and promotions to help the average car buyer aff…

  • How To Create a Free Flipbook online with Cool Features - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    A refreshing (and MUCH needed) change…
    The world is MOVING. Especially modern humanity, constantly, and we know it. The time to sit down and work through layers of articles, business proposals, and other paperwork on your desk has virtually disappeared. Almost everything has already gone digital, and not everyone has a PC on hand at any moment because they depend on their phones. There is a solution I would even recommend, as much as I love paper copies and the standard PDF. Flipbooks. Unlike the PDF, these files are easily viewable and manageable from your PC, Android, and IOS, making them message nearly boundless. You can insert links, pictures, and text together in multiple arrangements based on your clientele’s preferences. Here is a guy that caught on quick, Micheal Green, Here you can get ideas on starting one, and his opinions and ideas for Flipbooks. There is detailed information, pictures included, in the form of a digital magazine.
    They are entertaining! 
    Flat out. Flipbooks give the user the ability to interact by turning pages like a book with engaging graphics. These flipbooks are absolutely striking compared to a traditional website, and I see the digital page-turners taking over. People have long dreaded trudging through long boring PDF proposals for too long! Companies all over have already caught on. You can see examples in places such as The Forbes Company, and The Fast Company. I have even seen the popping up in small town businesses and schools. Here, at is a link to a simple, but elegant flipbook, you can see a clear example of what it is, and how it reaches out to a viewer. The brochure or article that was once a plain PDF, it taken to a whole new plane, seemingly reaching out. Notice the stunning colors of the graphics and seamless movement from page to page. More elegant, and cheaper than a printed brochure right? No papercuts either, bonus! 
    Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! 
    At the start, it may sound intimidating, since creating a flipbook from a PDF file used to take hours of work and a professional coder. For some, maybe even multiple coders! Phew! Thank goodness those times are long gone. Now, there are many options out there for those of us who do not have two secretaries on staff at all times. We even have professional quality software out there for free. Yes, I was serious, for completely free. With programs on the market such as YUMPU, we can make the transition smooth and even customizable.
    Most users will find the available software super easy to navigate with controls and options available on simple menus. Programs have your security and safety in mind too, with features such as encryption, and password safety. Programs allow you to upload you company’s logo, and even your music of choice. Do you want to promote your new yoga business? Find some fantastic relaxing music to give your customer a feel for what you are about.
    Let’s make some fun (and EASIER) changes for once.
    When you pull it all together, the flipbook software out there is unbelievable, and it would be a shame not to use it. The content is transferred easily to a secure website that codes it for you, and still allows for customization. Everyone wins. You are happy, because what you thought would be a tedious process became a miniscule task, and customers are happier browsing more fun and familiar content. Ahhhh. Now it’s all done, and you can still breathe easy.

  • The Pros and Cons of Hair Extensions - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    Hair extensions; what are they, how do they work, what are their purpose, should I get them? These questions plague the minds of those who are not happy with their hair. They are also on the minds of those who are looking to change their hair in a big way and those whose hair will not grow. Are hair extensions right for you? Well, you have come to the right place to find out. Here you will find a list of pros and cons of getting hair extensions. You will also find information about how they are applied, how long they last, and how to care for them. By the time you finish reading this you will have all of the necessary information to make a decision.
    Pro – Long Hair. Many people want to have long flowing hair, but they struggle with growing it out. This can happen for all manner or reasons including but certainly not limited to, illness, medications, genetics, and fine brittle hair. Any time the balance of your body’s chemicals are thrown out of balance it causes your hair to slow down its growth. This includes when a short term or long term illness sets in, the medications that an illness requires can also throw your body off kilter. Whatever the reason, it is very difficult for anyone who wants long hair and extensions can help.
    Con – The Price. Unfortunately, the process of getting hair extensions can be a bit pricey. First, you have to consider the price of the extensions themselves. While none of the options are “cheap” some are more expensive depending on the type you want. We will discuss the exact price ranges later on. After purchasing the extensions, you then have the price of getting them installed to consider. After having the extensions put in, you will need to have them styled and don’t forget about the long term upkeep.
    Pro – Adding Color Without Chemicals. Not only can you add length and volume to your hair with hair extensions, you can also add any color you can imagine, By using hair extensions to add color to your hair you avoid having to use harsh, damaging chemicals that cause hair to break and frizz. This is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a more natural approach to coloring or is dealing with a medical issue that doesn’t allow for the use of chemicals.
    Con- Getting Used To Your Extra Hair. If you are new to hair extensions and have never worn them before, you will have an adjustment period. It will take a few days to become used to the sensation of having them in. Plus, be prepared for your head to feel heavier for the first 2-3 days after getting them.
    Caring for Your New Hair Extensions. It is important to wash your hair every other day and always make sure to detangle your hair before washing it. Be sure you are using sulfate or paraben free shampoo as other kinds will cause damage to your extensions. Always avoid going to bed with wet hair; when heading to bed make sure your hair is completely dry and it is best to wear it in a braid or pigtails. These are the most ideal ways to wear your hair to bed because they eliminate as much pulling of the hair as possible. Speaking of which, go to great lengths to avoid pulling or tugging on your extensions.
    Types of  Hair Extensions. There are several different types of hair extensions and each one has its own level of  quality. The first one to take into consideration is synthetic hair. This type is the lowest quality hair extensions available. They are made with plastic fibers, low grade acrylic. These fibers are made in such a way as to look and feel like actual human hair. This is the same type of hair used on dolls and is the cheapest variety. Next up is a type of hair extension call non-remy hair. This type is actual human hair with the cuticle not intact. This is the lowest grade of human hair extensions that you can get and generally lasts o…

  • Is Removing Wisdom Teeth Always Necessary? - Entrepreneur Podcast Network – EPN
    Ask most adults and they will tell you every details of when they had their wisdom teeth removed. Not an easy experience, wisdom tooth removal leaves many people with a story to tell about the aftermath of their tooth extraction. 
    Although commonly thought is a necessity, having your wisdom teeth removed is not always necessary. There are times when your wisdom teeth can grow in correctly and take their rightful place among the rest of your healthy teeth without causing any issues. 
    If your wisdom teeth are impacted, however, or their development will cause mouth crowding, then removal might be not only necessary, but imperative, for your oral health. The only way to know for sure is to have Winnipeg oral surgeons examine your wisdom teeth to find out their positioning, and whether or not you have enough room for them to come in. 
    In general, there are only two things that wisdom teeth can do: grow in naturally without problem or become impacted and become a huge problem.
    What are impacted wisdom teeth?
    A wisdom tooth is considered impacted when it can’t come in naturally because there is some other tooth in its way. Wisdom teeth that don’t have room to grow in normally usually remain at the gum line and will shift horizontally instead of being upright and ready to grow in. 
    Other times, they are in a position where they just won’t have the room necessary to come through the right way. They can grow into or toward another tooth, leading to painful nerve damage of the other tooth. 
    If the wisdom tooth can come through just a little, then it’s exposure area can become a breeding ground for bacteria and plaque and lead to an infection that can harm all of your teeth and even your jaw.
    If your impacted wisdom tooth is allowed to grow sideways into the roots of another molar and the nerves in that root erupt, it can cause extreme pain. There are other times when there is no pain, but the impacted wisdom tooth grows gradually and can lead to dental issues left undetected.
    What if wisdom teeth have already come in and don’t hurt?
    Just because your wisdom teeth have already grown in and don’t cause you pain does not mean that you can’t benefit from having them removed. Even if they are causing a slight amount of crowding in your teeth, your dentist might recommend the that you have them removed.
    The reason is because if you have crowding in your mouth, then your risk for bacteria and cavities increase, which can lead to poorer dental health outcomes down the road. The easiest way to make sure that your wisdom teeth don’t cause any damage is to have them removed.
    When should you get your wisdom teeth removed?
    There is no magic age for getting your wisdom teeth taken out. Some people have them removed well before adulthood while others wait far into their adult years to have them taken out. Some people develop wisdom teeth as preteens while others might never have them grow at all. Keep monitoring your wisdom teeth and check with professionals about their advice.
    If your wisdom teeth are causing you any problems, then it is time for them to come out. It is usually easier to have your wisdom teeth removed when you are younger and their healing time is reduced, but if you have not had them removed by your 40s, and they aren’t causing any problems, it is probably not necessary to remove them.
    Is it painful to have your wisdom teeth removed?
    No, it is not painful to have your wisdom teeth removed as long as you are given the appropriate amount of sedation and post-surgery medication. Soreness can result from the procedure, and most pain is felt after the procedure is done. 
    If you do things post-procedure like avoid sucking from a straw and keep the area clean of infection, then your healing time should be pain-free and only consist of mild d…
