px285044

After the resume, the most important document in your job search will be the cover letter.  These two documents are what employers will base your potential for employment from.  While the resume highlights your experience the cover letter should focus on what you will bring to the company.  Here are a few tips for a successful cover letter:

1. Short and to the point.  As an eager job candidate you probably realize the the cover letter could be the only communication you have with the employer and you want to make sure that they know everything about you.  The problem is that you don’t want to bore them with your life story.  The cover letter should not go beyond one page.  You want to highlight what you will bring to the company but do not go into excessive detail.

How to Create the Ultimate Bachelor Pad

How do you create the ultimate bachelor pad so a lady - or possibly many ladies - will come through and not be turned off by the fact that you live in your own sh*t.

The most important things to keep in mind when designing your bachelor pad are: YOU must be comfortable there. A WOMAN should not be uncomfortable there. It should reveal your PERSONALITY. It should be a FUNCTIONAL place to live. It should look like a MAN lives there.

Whether your pad passes the lady’s “test” or not could be the difference between heart-pounding success and mind-numbing failure. Of course, certain things are obvious and go without saying - such as your place should be clean, neat, and smell-free (or preferably smell good). However, keep in mind that it should look “lived in” and not like you just spent six hours cleaning it before she came over. You want her to be “impressed” but also comfortable.

How To Visit a Sex Shop

If you haven’t already gone, you have to visit a sex shop. They are full of interesting toys, books, and movies. You’re in college to learn and sex should be part of your education. One wants to know how to do it well, and the resources found at sex shops can help you achieve top performance in the bedroom. Think of sex shops as the sex educational library, except these books and movies you can’t return, but who would want to do that?

I have been going to sex shops since I was eighteen. I have taken several friends on their maiden voyages to the sex shop. We walk the aisles, discussing the hilarious titles of porn and commenting on how extreme the toys can be. Through my extensive research I have composed some guidelines to successfully navigating a sex shop.

Gain The Upperhand With Roommate Torture Tactics

Note to freshman: When living with a roommate, torture tactics allow you to claim the spot as top dog in the living arrangement.

They also allow for a valuable bonding experience as your roommate tries to laugh off the fear, confusion and, at times, utter anger he will be confronted with when you use one of the following techniques. I must say, use them sparingly and watch your back because once the bridge is crossed and you implement one of these tactics, you are open for retaliation.

12 Types of Beer Pong Players

With school’s back in session, it’s important as a freshman to establish yourself as a force to be reckoned with, and one surefire way of setting the pace and getting on the right track is to rule the beer pong table. Take heed, beer pong at college isn’t your typical Friday night beer pong back at home - college is all about diversity and nothing is more diverse than a game of beer pong on campus. On the other hand, off campus beer pong usually means townies and that usually results in broken beer bottle brawls. Hooray!

To better educate the future leaders of America about the treacherous terrain that is the beer pong landscape and to help the good guys know thy enemy, I’ve compiled a list of formidable foes to watch out for during your tenure on the tables.

5 Warning Signs Your Professor Might Be Bad News

thursday_17_november_2005_40000_pm_jeffrey_pfeffer_professor_of_organizational_behavior_from_stanford_university_is_giving_a_lecture_at_cbs_executive.jpg1) English is as hard for them as Algebra is for you.

There’s nothing wrong with knowing two languages. Actually it’s pretty cool. But if your professor teaches at a University in the U.S and they are not a fluent English speaker, and they aren’t teaching the language they are fluent in, you could be in for a rough time, especially if the class is science or math. The only thing more difficult then college level mathematics is college level mathematics from Russia (with love).

2) A complete lack of syllabus.

In college, stuff matters. Papers, grades, stuff that is trivial in High School gets more weighty once you sign away a few thousand bucks a semester. A syllabus is a contract between you and the professor to minimize f*ck-ups on both ends. With a syllabus, they can’t bust a giant exam on you and be all “I said!”, and you can’t claim you misheard the due date for the term paper (damn!). If your professor doesn’t come with a syllabus on day one, ask about it. If they don’t have plans for one, you may in some troubs. Write all important dates down.

3) Where did I put my…

People who forget stuff a lot can be cute. Unless you pay them to teach and grade you. Then it’s just annoying. We admit, teachers are people and forgetting stuff is fine, occasionally, but if your teacher forgets most of the stuff they were supposed to bring during the first week, you can bet on a semesters worth of waiting for AV equipment that wasn’t requested and photocopies that didn’t get made. Your assignments are at least slightly in your control, so make 2 copies and keep one for yourself. Read More »

Pledging: “The Best Time of Your Life, But You’ll Never Do it Again”

I remember hearing that phrase, “The Best time of your life, But You’ll Never do it Again.”  At least that’s what I heard when I had a sports jacket on and all the “brothers” were cheering me on as we got drunk and had fun on bid day.

And sure it was fun the first couple of weeks when we had to do little chores for the brothers and even humiliate yourself for a gag or two. Read More »

10 Tips For Going Green In College

recycle-reuse-reduce.jpgGetting ready to throw yourself back into that world of dorming? And do you care about the environment? Well, good luck. Being green, in some dorms, is pretty freakin’ hard. Recycling bins are nowhere to be found, resources are being wasted left and right and most of the kids around you don’t care.

That doesn’t mean you have to throw in the non-recyclable towel. There are so many things you can do to reduce your carbon footprint and give back to Mother Earth. Here are some tips to help the planet and inspire your peers to do the same:

1. Skip the single serving snack-packs. Get a big bag and make your own single-serving portion in a small plastic bag when you’re on the go. Wash the bag out when you’re done and do it again the next time. It’s that easy.

2. Chill out with the AC. Tons of college students keep their AC’s running just because they can. That’s not cool! (Note: yes, the pun was intended.) Don’t act like a monkey when it comes to the environment. Leaving your AC running while you’re out hurts the planet regardless of whether or not you’re paying the bill. Read More »
