Career lessons from televisions reboot season

Career lessons from televisions reboot seasonCareer lessons from televisions reboot seasonIt seems like you cant flip through TV or movie listings without hitting a somewhat updated version of a movie or show. But why? With all the creativity in the world, why are there so many rehashed formulas instead of brand-new offerings? Based on ratings or preference, people seem to enjoy watching something they already know and love or at the very least are comfortable enough with so they dont automatically switch the channel or binge something else.In no particular order, here are some recent reboots and some career takeaways to considerA star is rebornDepending on who you spoke with, modern film purists either salivated or balked when this one was announced. After all, hadnt Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson already created the perfect version of the tragic love story? Well, yeah. But so, had Janet Gaynor and Frederic March and Judy Garland and James Mason. Because not only had A Sta r is Born been filmed before, this is the 4th iteration of the tale of doomed lovers.Reboot career lesson learned While repeating yourself at work isnt always the smartest option, sometimes it is. If youre planning the annual holiday party and remember everyone loving the venue or dcor menu of the party four years ago, feel free to revisit. You dont have to reinvent the wheel every day of your working life, you just have to make sure that the newest version is on par with or oben liegend in some way to the one that came before.Charmed, Im sureWhen Charmed debuted in the 90s it told the story of an imperfect trio of sisters who happened to also be witches. Sure, there were underlying messages of sisterhood is powerful, but there were also the usual searches for love and somewhat magically available careers. On the other hand, when Sabrina the Teenage Witch debuted as a comic book character in Archie comics, she was most often portrayed as ditzy and adorable and happened to possess th e gift of magic. In Netflixs dark and murky reboot, she also battles issues of her potential dark side, bullying, sexuality, and choice.Reboot career lesson learnedIts almost spooky that the stories of young, powerful women (in this case witches) are making their way back to the small screen. In a post MeToo era, the TV landscape is shifting however slowly to include characters that are smart, fierce and talented, featuring women in the leading roles. If youve ever felt like your industry wasnt friendly to the idea of a woman supervisor or boss, perhaps its time to make a case for more women in your workplace.We are familyRoseanne Barr is no stranger to controversy, but a racist comment a few months back endangered not only her own career, but also potentially put the careers of her coworkers at risk. In a move lauded by many, the producers of the show fired its star, but the show was left with an uncertain future. Fast forward a few months and the formerly female-led Roseanne had morphed into The Conners. In some ways, nothing had changed. A show about a family became more so.Reboot career lesson learned As career inspiration goes, there was an incredibly valuable takeaway from the Roseanne story. No one is indispensable and nearly everyone is replaceable. Even if your name is on the door or letterhead, you must keep defining yourself as the rolle worth doing business with. And remember to protect your team, or they might just move on without you.And a misfireBack in the 80s, Tom Selleck embodied the role of TV private investigator Magnum P.I. complete with loud aloha shirts and his iconic stache. Selleck exuded charm while sharing crackling online chemistry with co-star John Hillerman. In the reboot, actor Jay Hernandez is surrounded by the same lush surroundings and has a posh bachelor pad to boot. Only it doesnt work. Or at least it doesnt work as a reboot of a show that relied as much on its cast as its surroundings. And unlike Hawaii Five-0 that someho w managed to recreate a wildly popular procedural, this version pretty much falls flat.Reboot career lesson learned Dont try to cram yourself into the wrong role. If your boss or coworkers try to force you to assume responsibilities that feel like a bad fit, speak up. And then find a way to shine instead of trying to be an imitation of somebody elses glory days.

Assuming that they must have every skill and qualification listed in a job posting, they dont bother to apply because they dont realize that a job description is a wish list and no employer realistic ally expects a job candidate to have everything, she said. Peppercorn added that people with a strong inner critic are less likely to ask for the help they need in finding work- for example, asking networking connections for advice or requesting introductions- because the doubting voice within makes them worry that theyll be uncovered as a fraud.Interviewers often ask job candidates to explain a failure or setback they had in their career to understand how the person will deal with a challenging situation, which will undoubtedly arise on the job, said Peppercorn. Perfectionists are terrified of failure and are afraid to admit that even the best of us encounter cases that dont go our way.Squelching Self-DoubtTo help combat these tendencies to sell yourself short, Peppercorns book offers strategic advice that job seekers can put into action. These strategies includeOvercoming negative self-talk. Its important to recognize when youre falling prey to your internal worst enemy, according to Peppercorn. Learning from failure gives you a way to reframe a setback as a learning experience, which ultimately will help you tell your stories more confidently in interviews, she said. Peppercorn added that its important to set clear and realistic goals while remaining hopeful Job seekers need the ability to do both.Taking back your interview power. Job interviews can be particularly ripe breeding grounds for inner critics. Our inner critic tends to roar the loudest in stressful situations, like a job interview, said Peppercorn. The lack of confidence that self-critical job seekers feel may cause them to focus more attention on what they havent done rather than on how they can contribute. This can show up in a variety of ways, from nervous body language and lack of eye contact to slouched seating and responding hesitantly.Doing a trial run. To help prevent a confidence crisis when youre under the gun, Peppercorn suggested that job candidates practice answering common intervie w questions with a trusted friend or colleague to build competence and confidence. Having a mock interview recorded on a smartphone will help you hear yourself as well as see how you come across, said Peppercorn. Also, making a conscious effort to smile at the interview team and greet them with a firm handshake is a way of projecting confidence in spite of the internal butterflies you might be feeling.While your inner critic has the potential to hijack, or even derail, your job search, you have the power to override that messaging. By learning to recognize and then push back against the critical voice in your head that keeps you from performing at your best during your job search, you can reclaim your professional power to land the opportunities that you want.

Avoid Saying These Words During Job Interviews

Avoid Saying These stimmt genaus During Job InterviewsAvoid Saying These Words During Job InterviewsIf youve ever been the unwitting victim to the word moist or have had the displeasure of sitting through cringe-worthy phrases such as firstly, funner, or the always dreaded iiregardless, you know the impact a mis-chosen phrase can have on the average listener. If hearing certain words in social settings can conjure up this type of reaction, imagine what kind of impact the wrong turn of phrase can have when uttered during an interview.Word choice during the job interview is a bit more complicated than sayings that are socially undesirable or grammatically poor. For prospective employers, certain words can trigger concerns regarding a candidates commitment, skills, professionalism or a host of other issues. While this type of critique may seem a bitunfairto candidates, its important to realize interviewers only have a limited amount of time to get to know their potential employees and b uzz words, key phrases or other red flags play a big role in the all-important gut feeling. With that in mind, here are a few words you should avoid using during a job interview to maximize your chances and prevent getting thrown out of the game on a grammatical technicality.SalaryCompensation, salary, dollars, bonus, moolah and cash are pretty much all words to avoid like the plague during a job interview. I mean, we get it, we really do. One of the primary but often hush-hushed motivations behind a candidate switching jobs is typically money. Whether this applies to your scenario or leid, however, you should generally avoid talking dollars and cents until after youve received an offer. A good recruiter can often help you navigate the payment minefield, cueing you into the target salary long before you make a commitment. Try, Maybe, Possibility and PotentiallyWe may be cheating here a bit by lumping a few distinct words into one broad category but hey, if you dont like it then get your own blog. The reasoning behind leaving out this broad swath of grammatically correct terms has to do with commitment, tenacity and drive in short, those soft skills that employers are fond of asking all kinds of leading questions in their attempt to uncover. Using noncommittal terms to describe past or anticipated work can make you seem like a bit of a flake. Take a firm stance on your skills, abilities and desire to move forward with the standort youre interviewing for in order to set yourself up for job-hunting success. FiredIf were being honest when it comes to our own personal job histories, weve all most likely been in the position where weve left, vacated or otherwise been ex-nayed from a job. Sure, everyone else may call this scenario fired, but we prefer to think of it as a parting of ways with a less than desirable position. You should never attempt to hide the fact that you were terminated from a prior place of employment, but avoid offering the information up unless specifically asked by either your interviewer or in a job application. Pretty Much any Four Letter Wordand some Five and Six Letter Ones as WellRecalling the days when it wasnt considered child abuse to apply a hearty dose of soap to cleanse the mouths of would-be curse word users might be a good tact to take for this category or words to be avoided. No matter the work environment or apparent lack of formality in interview format, curse words should be thoroughly avoided. Using slang or vulgar terms can make you appear unprofessional during the time youre expected to be on your best behavior. Terrible, Awful, HorribleWe all have that one negative nanzig in our lives. The person who constantly complains, opines and offers up their opinion about all things they consider the worst. When it comes to your job interview, avoid being THAT person and leave the negativity outside the conference room door. Words such as terrible, worst, awful and hate leave strong negative impressions with yo ur potential employer. In addition, these terms are often utilized by candidates to describe prior job roles or co-workers, another interview no-no. Keep things positive, hopeful and upbeat in order to ensure the interview moves in your direction. So, Ummmm and LikeLast but certainly not least on our list of words to avoid during the job interview are the ever-overused conversation fillers. So, ummm, like and similar sentence gap-fillers are often signs of nervousness, used by speakers as a crutch to avoid awkward pauses. Practice interview questions with a friend, family member or even a mirror to increase your comfortability with answers and minimize the use of these painfully evidence conversation crutches.While none of these phrases are necessarily deal breakers, eliminating problematic terms from your interview lingo can go a long way towards setting your candidacy apart from the crowd. Remember that practice makes perfect and can also help you weed out problem grammar issues f rom your interview vocabulary, increasing your chances at getting that call back or job offer.
