The new leader of the Labour Party is a heathen? It looks like Joseph Ratzinger’s warning against “aggressive secularism” is becoming a real threat. We shouldn’t let Atheist, Ed Miliband, anywhere near a seat of power. Just look at how moral Joseph Ratzinger’s decisions have been. Oh wait… In an interview on BBC Radio 5 Live this afternoon Ed Miliband revealed that, “I don’t believe... 

I really do. Paul Bowler is a straight talking man. I should know. At the University of Gloucestershire last year I attend an ‘Open Forum’ where the University’s relationship with Stagecoach was discussed. He made intelligent points but I must confess caused outrage. Whilst he may understand finances he was far separated from the emotional aspects involved with comforting students and staff.... 

At Microsoft internship students have the opportunity to get involved with a number of ‘101 Teams’. These teams are involved with the “extra-curricular” aspects of our internship. I opted to become part of the Microsoft Milk Round team, the group of students who travel to various Universities and spread the word of Microsoft. At 2:10pm in Reading I had to present to a panel of judges to become... 

Have you ever known you were being influenced by something? As I sit in my room today I think back to the time when I entered my University as a fresher and felt an air of what could be considered a pre-business attitude. Studying Public Relations had psychologically taken me closer to the business world and I felt my own character and outlook shape shift to fit this new world mould. I felt professional. In... 

Each morning I listen to the Transport For London (TFL) platform announcements and think to myself ‘I could do that job’. In fact, the desire to be the voice of TFL is so great that it has made itself onto my “list of things to do before I die”. I accidentally challenged my past radio companion, Ian Pinnell, to a voice over duel this evening. It seems he also dreams of becoming the TFL voice.... 

Over the last couple of weeks I have been working on growing the traffic on my blog. This is my piece of advice for how to promote your blog online. 1. Get involved with Twitter and share your posts. Remember that this is a platform for conversation – get engaged. 2. Share all your posts through Facebook. Sometimes using a third party application like NetworkedBlogs can be good way to automate this... 

I can’t claim I know everything about CV writing but these 5 methods are my advice. 1. Include a URL to Your Blog Writing posts to a blog concerning the industry of which you are applying to may put you miles ahead of other applicants. Whilst a CV ideally can be no longer than two pages, a blog can be constructed of hundreds of pages. A blog can be a really good way to show your employer that you... 

A few days ago my manager called me into one of the meeting rooms and broke the news of a team restructure. I’ve known for a while that the current structure of the team would be changing but little did I know that this would affect my role. The role of Trade Marketing which I was appointed as I joined the team in July will change as well. Instead I shall be an Account Manager for the Microsoft Media... 

‘You will be the lucky ones.’ Last year my lecturer told me that as I waited after class with thoughts of employment after University running through my mind. The majority of students are nervous about their job prospects after University. Students should be nervous. Whilst further education may keep the young workforce of Britain at bay for an extra 3 / 4 years, eventually this talent will need...

Working for the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) Multinational Sales team requires an awful lot of learning. Not that learning is awful. So far I have learnt in great detail about the tasks of Account Executives, Account Managers, Sales Planners and Trade Marketers. Currently my workload varies day-to-day. Whilst Monday might be full of meetings, my Tuesday might be pretty much free, only to have... 

Just like the innate nature of our moral conscience the University diet comes naturally to all of those at University. Regardless of whether we embrace the University diet, it crosses the mind of every student. Why bother creating a meal when you live in pizza delivery London? It all starts within the confines of a supermarket where you find yourself staring at the shelf in a state of disbelief. Preparing...
