Gap year

A gap year is constructive time out - it can be anywhere, anytime, doing anything. You could be building a school in Chile, doing some work experience, basking on a beach in Fiji or simply working for a year to save enough money for university or a new house - or even taking time out to change your career. It is about living life to the full and realising that there is a world of opportunity out there just waiting to be explored. In the UK a 'gap year' was traditionally viewed as the activity of taking time out before university. The world on the street was that it involved travel for the wealthy few and pretty much nothing for the rest of us. Nowadays, however, all sorts of people are taking ‘gaps’, doing a thousand different things. A gap year is now one of the most talked about phenomena of this millennium. With the baby-boomer generation fast approaching retirement, globalisation changing the nature of society and young people now heading into a life of 'portfolio careers', taking time out is now seen as a positive, rather than negative thing.

The impact of new techonologies on the world of wok

It's a small world. Now it is becoming smaller. Especially the professional side of it. Technology is engineering a new small world in a small web where zillions of people collaborate across time, space, and
organizational boundaries. New technology has been injected into the workplace at an exponentially increasing rate over the last few decades. Many companies see new technology as the means to increase profit margins and to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving marketplace.

The Importance of qualifications in getting a job

Now-a-days to get a good job we need to have, not only good grades, but we need personal qualitities and we have to know how to do different things.

With the Global Crisis and the unemployment we can´t choose what we want or like, but the one that will give us work, even if we don´t like!
