Top personal training certifications

One of the problems evolved countries are dealing with nowadays is obesity.  More and more children become obese. In US more than one third of the adult population is obese.  The main reason, among other reasons, for this is the invention of computer and the invention of internet.  Adults stay in front of the computer to work, kids stay in front of the computer to play. Everybody stays in front of a computer.  Well, not quite everybody, we still have some sportsmen among us. Fitness is a fast growing market. It has become very popular to go to the gym. We believe fitness saved a lot of people from becoming obese.  

We would like to encourage people of all ages to do sports. Running does so much good for the health that you won’t even imagine. Doing a sport also disciplines a person and makes him stronger physically and psychically. With fitness’s’ expanding popularity, a new kind of certification also expanded: personal training certifications.

Interview questions and answers

There comes a moment in almost everyone’s life when they have to face an interview.  Let’s be honest, we hate them!

We can change that feeling before an interview by preparing for it. The best way to prepare for an interview is to know what kind of possible questions you will be asked and how to answer them.  The better your answer will be the better chances for you to pass the interview.

First, we will talk about the most common interview questions. READ MORE

Phone interview tips

We continue our job interview article series and we will talk about phone interview tips.

phone interview is very frightening. It much worse than a classic interview because you never know went to expect it. Let’s imagine you’re home, relaxing, watching a TV show after an exhausting work. The phone is ringing…Hello?..umm, yeah, that’s me…aaammm…yeah I applied…sorry, I am very tired, can I call you tomorrow?

Of course this is not how a phone interview should go.

The first phone interview tip is this: Be ready at any time. You never know when they might call you so you have to prepare and to practice the words you will say. READ MORE

Behavioral interview questions and answers

Forums: 

Let’s say that in the next few days you have a job interview. Like every normal person would do, you prepare for the interview. You do a lot of research on the company you will have the interview with and you read internet articles about how to do well on a job interview.  That’s great, at least until you stand in front of your interviewer and he or she is asking you to remember a concrete situation from your past and describe how you managed it. This is not what you expected; you weren’t ready for this, what is this?

Well, this is the new type of interview companies are using: behavioral interview

Companies want to see if you have the skills for the job, so they will give certain situations to see if you would act as they want you to. (CONTINUE READING)

Avoid Asking about Salary or Benefits during Job Interview

Forums: 

While we have already touched on asking the right questions, we did not really focus on refraining from asking the WRONG ones. One of the biggest initial job interview mistakes that you can make is to ask about salary or benefits during your interview.
