💫Signs You Are In A Financially Abusive Relationship   Recognizing the signs of financial abuse is essential in understanding the dynamics of a toxic relationship. Financial abuse can be subtle but can have profound and lasting effects on your well-being.   👀Control Over Finances • Your partner controls all financial decisions without considering your input. • You are not allowed access to bank accounts, credit cards, or financial information. Limited Financial Independence • You are not allowed to work, hindering your ability to generate income independently. • Your partner dictates how you spend money, giving you little to no financial autonomy. 👩🏼‍💻Sabotaging Employment Opportunities • Your partner actively discourages or prevents you from pursuing career opportunities or advancement. • They may undermine your professional relationships or interfere with your work life. Withholding Financial Information • Your partner keeps financial information secret, making it difficult for you to understand the overall financial picture. • You are unaware of the family's income, debts, or investments. 📈Forcing Debt and Financial Dependence • Your partner accumulates debts in your name without your knowledge or consent. • They may intentionally create financial dependence by sabotaging your efforts to save or invest. Threats • Your partner uses money as a tool for control, making threats to cut off financial support if you don't comply with their demands. • They use manipulation to make sure you rely on them financially. #finance #womenempowerment #financialabuse #motivation #personalfinance #job #work #divorce

⬇️ Hiring managers don’t waste their time interviewing people that they don’t think are qualified. 👩‍💻 If you have been scheduled for an interview, they want it to go well.   🤞They need to fill this position and they are hoping that you are the person for the job.   ❌ Interviewers DO NOT purposely ask hard questions so you will do poorly. ❌ Interviewers DO NOT put you on the spot to embarrass you.   ✅ Instead of thinking that an interview is a trap, and they are out to get you- shift your perspective.   📌Here’s a pre-interview mantra to practice ahead of your next job interview, “They would be lucky to have me. They want this interview to go well as much as I do.”   #jobinterview #interviewprep #interviewstips #careercoach #corporatejobs #jobsearch #interview #career

🗳️An election is a job interview, and we are the hiring managers. I have taught thousands of hiring managers how to interview better, let me teach you how. @Anna Papalia   🧐There are 3 common biases in job interviews that you need to be careful of   1️⃣The Self-Fulfilling Prophesy Bias- Once interviewers have made an initial judgement about a candidate, they tend to look for evidence to support their conclusion. If they like you, they tend to interpret your responses more favorably than if their initial reaction is less favorable. This bias can also be acting even before you enter the room: if you are an interviewer's top candidate, he or she will look for actions and responses on your part that tend to confirm the initial judgment.   2️⃣ The Similar-to-Me Effect- Research has clearly shown that interviewers and supervisors have an unconscious tendency to favor people who are physically and professionally similar to them. This is one of the factors that holds women and minorities back in the working world. Mentors often select protégés that are similar to themselves. And job interviewers tend to favor candidates who are like them. Since this is a hard bias to overcome in the interview setting, I advise people to be themselves but to look for any areas of potential overlap between them and their interviewers.   3️⃣ The Halo Effect- Interviewers often cannot help associating success in one endeavor with an overall tendency for success in general. From a rational point of view, there is no reason to expect that a person who was, say, All-State Track Champion would be an excellent engineer, but many interviewers tend to be positively biased toward people successful in anything. This is an example of a bias that you may be able to work to your advantage. While it is not generally appropriate to put hobbies and outside activities in your resume, it is appropriate to describe honors and awards, even if they are nonprofessional in nature. By slipping in some of these "outstanding achievements" you may gain some of the Halo Effect in your interview.   🎯For a full list of biases to avoid when hiring, get an Interviewology Profile for $47 use code September @Anna Papalia   #presidentialdebate #trump #harris #presidentialelection #politics #news #hiring #jobinterview #career #greenscreen

When you receive a job offer NEVER accept it on the spot! When I tell people this, I always get these 3 questions. @Anna Papalia For more tips on how to negotiate a job offer, check out my “how to negotiate playlist”   #1 What if they lie? -Why would they lie? They just interviewed 50 people and they decidd that you are the person for the job. Why wouldn’t they hear you out and see if they can give you what you want? Also, if what you want is an extra $5k on salary or 10 more days PTO they will do it if they can because they want to fill the position and move on in the same way you want to get a job and stop your job search.   #2 What if they say it’s not negotiable? If they say it’s not negotiable then you know you got their best offer and you need to then decide if you can live with that offer. If they won’t or can’t negotiate the ball is now in your court. Take 24 hours to think about it.   #3 If try to negotiate or if I ask for more money won’t they just take my offer away? They will only take the offer away if you lie, misrepresent yourself or negotiate unprofessionally. Trust me, if they have made you an offer they want to try to make it work and you would have to do something stupid to get them to take your offer away.   For 10 Questions to Ask When you Receive a Job Offer to Get More Money, Get an Interviewology Profile and good luck in your upcoming salary negotiations.   #Salarynegotiations #Joboffer #joboffernegotiations  #jobInterview #career #salary #negotiate #jobsearch #careeradvice #work #careeradvice #interviewtips #personalfinance
