Are the employment prospects for the field of graphic design good?
Q. Does this area offer a steady and secure career? Or is it hard to find and keep employment in this area?
Asked by BarryBadrinath - Tue Apr 29 18:15:02 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I don't see any problems...remember graphic design doesn't HAVE to be localized to where you are living now (you didn't specify "this area"). I have clients all over the US/Canada (and occasionally some abroad). If is more important that YOU are good in the field. I am an Art Director for a TV station but I've had jobs in other fields...graphic design doesn't mean agency work - you can also work as an in-house designer. I've never not been able to find work. When I was unemployed I did freelance. I am finding the Hispanic market quite lucrative.

How far back do background checks look at employment records?
Q. I have lots of years of employment history, lots of different places as I'm the mother of 4. How far back, in years, will a potential employer check employment records? 7 years? I didn't indicate employment going way back as I started working full time in 1978. Thanks. I checked my credit report and all 3 reports only show the past 7 years. Is that what they use to check?
Asked by A True Blue Fan from Philly - Mon Aug 11 19:25:54 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. As a background screening provider, the typical employment check is between 5-7 years. There are certain companies that wish to check back 10 years, but I have never heard of anyone going back 30 years.

What are the employment figures for the legalization of marijuana?
Q. I don't understand business law and marijuana is generally illegal but is now scientifically considered a safer drug than alcohol and less addictive. Petitions and bills have been written and it looks like it might be up for legalization in a couple states. If legalized in several states, what are the repercussions against state government versus federal government? If legalized what type of employment would it bring under these circumstances? What would be a years worth of pay as a worker and and as management? Might legal troubles affect the workers such as fines?
Asked by Jeff R - Sat Jun 6 16:17:25 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Employment would consist of manufacture/growing, distribution, and sales, just like with tobacco or alcohol. The pay rates would be similar. It's just basic common sense. It's a new product, that's all. It will have the same issues as any new product at the state level.

A. Having been out of the business world for 15 years, many things may have changed. The most important factor was the experience the person was bringing to the job, and the resume which could be checked.In a few instances we hired and trained for particular jobs due to their specialization. We never looked for a credit report. That was personal and no business of the company. Where cash sales were concerned, we instituted a double check for sales and cash balancing and the manager was responsible for accuracy. He was also responsible for the deposits.

A. As per the UAE visa regulations an employ cannot be able to cancel the work visa issued on his/her name. Only the employer/sponsor can able to do this. In your case, if you are not interested to join with the current offer just inform them and go for the other offer. But bear in mind that your new visa application will not be approved till the existing visa has not been cancelled. I would suggest you to stick with the current offer and you can able to change/ revise your profession according to your designation in due course with your supporting certificates.

A. It depends on your field of work. For example my friend is a lawyer and he was hired through recruiters and video conferencing by one of the top tier firms. It really just depends on the position that you are applying for. It's rare to be hired without a face to face interview. You would not be able to arrange a flat to rent if you are not in Sydney. Most real estate agents will not rent you a flat sight unseen, plus you need to sign documents and show evidence from your employer as to wages etc. Unless you put an ad on and see what you come up with - most flatmates would want to meet you first.

If you have a factory that produces pancakes and to increase output you have to find more help, right? So employment rises.

A. The only thing that actually works, according to NORML, is drinking lots and lots of fluids. Water, of course, but also tea and coffee, since caffeine increases urinary output. Drink as much as you can, urinate as frequently as you can, and take a B complex vitamin. This will add yellow coloring to your urine. Copious amounts of water will render urine almost colorless, which can make screeners suspicious.
