Ask The Experts:

Some of the topics you can comment on this week are:

4. I have a strong background in customer service and data entry, yet, when I uploaded my resume to an online job board, I started getting a ton of emails from recruiters with sales positions to fill. What's going on? Am I including information in my resume that I shouldn't or is this normal?

5. I applied for an administraive assistant job through a temp agency's Web site, but when I went in to interview and test for THAT position, I was told that they don't have any jobs that meet my "skill set." When I mentioned the job I applied for online, they said, "Oh, you're not proficient enough in MS Word to qualify for that position." Why wasn't I told that in the first place when one of their recruiters called me to schedule an interview and testing? My MS Word proficiency is on my resume, so why didn't they already know I wasn't qualified? Is this just their way of getting people to come in and register with them so they can meet a daily quota or something? I feel like I was mislead.

About WOE Enterprise

A few years ago my life hit rock bottom. I looked into the bible and I saw the word woe. I also wanted to see how the dictionary defined woe. Woe meant trials or tribulations. In life a woe to you might be a job loss and to another it might be a broken relationship.

One day I was thinking how I could reinvent my life so I wrote down the word woe on a piece of paper. As the document spoke to me it revealed that woe now meant WOE as in Word of Encouragement. From there I received this slogan.

“Before you leave work or go to sleep tonight, give someone a WOE, a Word Of Encouragement.”
