The Top 5 skills you need for your dream job!

#1 Leadership

They are looking for a talent pool that is never shy to put its hand up and take the first step forward. This is a trait which is inborn and can, with some hard work, be acquired.

#2 Team Player

Companies cannot afford to have talent without co-ordination or co-operation. Being someone who can put aside differences and get along well with people, can hugely boost your chances of sealing that dream job.

Companies look for people who can think deep and act after having analyzed all the permutations and combinations in a problem. They look for someone who can take one shot at a problem and solve it forever.

#4 Communication

This will forever be one skill, that everyone needs to possess, to achieve success.Communication is the art of effectively conveying your thoughts so that they become seeds for an action. Hiring managers look for people who can take a thought and turn it into reality. They look for someone who can make even the most complex of topics, easy and understandable, for the simplest of minds. It is an art which one needs and one which guarantees success.

#5 Motivation

Motivation is as equally important as all the above, previously mentioned skills. Companies have started to realize that individuals who are truly motivated and enthused, drive them forward. They do not approve of someone who lacks interest and is not motivated to do his work. Find the job which motivates you and which keeps the fire in your belly burning. That is your ticket to success.

As we head into 2016, enterprise chat applications like Slack are suddenly a hot commodity, and if you’re inside chat a good portion of the day the argument goes, you should be able to access other work without leaving the chat client.

Trump cites Facebook exec’s comments downplaying Russian ad influence on election

You’d be forgiven for missing Donald Trump’s multiple retweets of Facebook executive Rob Goldman over the weekend. Perhaps you were spending time with family, watching Black Panther or just attempting to forget politics for a moment by ignoring the manic flurry of social media updates from the leader of the free world. But in amongst a deluge of tweets that blamed Democrats for failing to preserve DACA, called out the FBI over the recent school shooting in Florida on the FBI and affectionately referred to a member of congress as “Liddle’ Adam Schiff, the leakin’ monster of no control,” the President cited Facebook’s VP of Ads as evidence against claims that his campaign colluded with Russia. “The Fake News Media never fails,” Trump tweeted over the weekend. “Hard to ignore this fact from the Vice President of Facebook Ads, Rob Goldman!” Trump was citing Goldman’s own Twitter dump over the past week, responding to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s recent indictment of 13 Russian...

Phoenix OS is (another) Android-as-a-desktop

Google Android may have been developed as a smartphone operating system (and later ported to tablets, TVs, watches, and other platforms), but over the past few years we’ve seen a number of attempts to turn it into a desktop operating system. One of the most successful has been Remix OS , which gives Android a taskbar, start menu, and an excellent window management system. The Remix OS team has also generated a lot of buzz over the past year, and this week the operating system gained a lot of new alpha testers thanks to a downloadable version of Remix OS that you can run on many recent desktop or notebook computers. But Remix OS isn’t the only game in town. Phoenix OS is another Android-as-desktop operating system, and while it’s still pretty rough around the edges, there are a few features that could make it a better option for some testers. Some background I first discovered Phoenix OS from a post in the Remix OS Google Group , altho...
