5 thing, Why should u be a volunteer?

                    

                  5 Reasons Why You Should Volunteer?

   The Bureau of Labor Statistics just released the 2013 volunteering rates for the United States, showing a decline to 25.4 percent, the lowest rate since the survey was first administered in 2002. These rates reflect adults in the US who spent as little as one hour volunteering for an organization in the last 12 months. Adults who regularly volunteer make up only a small fraction of this group. Some suggest that the decline in volunteering is due in part to the struggling economy; people are focusing on getting and maintaining adequate paid work and don’t feel they have time to think about unpaid work. However, volunteering isn’t something to put off until you have extra time and money. There are numerous reasons why the returns far outweigh the time you invest, especially during lean times. I’ll point out just five reasons you should consider making volunteering a part of your every day life.

1. Volunteers live longer and are healthier.

Volunteers are happier and healthier than non-volunteers. In fact, during later life, volunteering is even more beneficial for one's health than exercising and eating well. Older people who volunteer remain physically functional longer, have more robust psychological well-being, and live longer. However, older people who volunteer are almost always people who volunteered earlier in life. Health and longevity gains from volunteering come from establishing meaningful volunteer roles before you retire and continuing to volunteer once you arrive in your post-retirement years.

2. Volunteering establishes strong relationships.

Despite all of the online connections that are available at our fingertips, people are lonelier now than ever before. Indeed, a 2010 AARP study reported that prevalence of lonelinessis at an all time high, with about one in three adults age 45 or older categorized as lonely. Online connections, while useful for maintaining existing relationships, are not very helpful in establishing lasting, new ones. Working alongside people who feel as strongly as you do about supporting a particular cause creates a path to developing strong relationships with others. It isn’t just beneficial for making new friendships either. Volunteering alongside other members of your family strengthens family bonds based in “doing” your values. And these benefits have a ripple effect. Children who volunteer with their parents are more likely to become adults who volunteer.

3. Volunteering is good for your career.

People who volunteer make more money, partially because the relationships people create while volunteering can be leveraged for financial benefit. In 1973, a John’s Hopkins Sociologist named Mark Granovetter described the important role of “weak ties.” Weak ties are those relationships that are outside of one’s close-knit social network. These relationships are important because they provide access to new information and opportunities. People in your close network provide redundant information—they are already participating in the same kinds of activities and know the same people. Volunteering has long been viewed as a way to create new “weak tie” connections that lead to career opportunities. Volunteering in your current career industry—or an area you’d like to transition into—is an especially effective way to leverage social connections for career gain.

4. Volunteering is good for society.

Many businesses, and almost all mission-driven organizations, are successful only if they maintain a strong volunteer workforce. In fact, places like museums, social service organizations, and faith-based organizations often rely on more volunteers than paid workers to meet their goals and fulfill their mission. These businesses are committed to doing good things for society. They pick up the pieces where government programs leave off, and by volunteering for these organizations, you participate in helping our society meet the needs of people from all walks of life. For example, The Borgen Project, a campaign committed to addressing the problem of global poverty, relies on volunteers who commit several hours a week for a period of six months or longer, to help with raising awareness, fundraising and mobilization of human and fiscal resources . With the help of volunteers, the Borgen Project has been very successful in raising awareness and influencing legislation to actively make positive changes that directly affect the lives of the world’s poorest citizens.

5. Volunteering gives you a sense of purpose.

Although it is not well-understood why volunteering provides such a profound health benefit, a key factor is assumed to be that volunteering serves to express and facilitate opportunities to carry out one’s sense of purpose. The very nature of volunteering means choosing to work without being paid for it. As a result, people choose to spend their time on issues they feel strongly about. If you are greatly concerned about the treatment and well-being of animals, for example, volunteering at an animal shelter will help you address a social problem that is meaningful to you.

If you aren’t currently volunteering, and three in four of us aren’t, there are many resources online that can help you find an opportunity. Committing even as little as one hour a week can have a profound benefit on your own life, and the organizations that rely on such help will be able to thrive.

Interview Questions and Answers

              

                 Top 10 Interview Questions and how to Answers

         It's important to be prepared to respond effectively to the interview questions that employers typically ask at job interviews. Since these questions are so common, hiring managers will expect you to be able to answer them smoothly and without hesitation.

You don't need to memorize an answer, but do think about what you're going to say so you're not put on the spot during the job interview.

Top 10 Interview Questions and Best Answers
Review the top 10 interview questions you'll most likely be asked at a job interview, plus the best answers. Also, review the other questions you may be asked, so you're prepared to ace the interview.

1. What is your greatest strength?
This is one of the questions that employers almost always ask. When you are asked about your greatest strengths, it's important to discuss the attributes that will qualify you for the specific job and set you apart from the other candidates.

2. What is your greatest weakness?
Another typical question interviewers will ask is about your weaknesses. Do your best to frame your answers around positive aspects of your skills and abilities as an employee.

3. Tell me about yourself.
Here’s how to answer questions about you without giving out too much – or too little – personal information.

Start by sharing some of your personal interests which don't relate directly to work.

4. Why should we hire you? 
Are you the best candidate for the job? Be prepared to say why.  Make your response a concise sales pitch that explains what you have to offer the employer, and why you should get the job.

5. What are your salary expectations?
What are you looking for in terms of salary? It seems like a simple question, but your answer can knock you out of content for the job if you overprice yourself. Here's the best way to answer questions about salary.

6. Why are you leaving or have left your job?
When asked about why you are moving on, stick with the facts, be direct and focus your interview answer on the future, especially if your leaving wasn't under the best of circumstances.

7. Why do you want this job?
This question gives you an opportunity to show the interviewer what you know about the job and the company. Be specific about what makes you a good fit for this role, and mention aspects of the company and position that appeal to you.

8. How do you handle stress and pressure?
What do you do when things don’t go smoothly at work? The best way to respond to this question is to give an example of how you have handled stress in a previous job.

9. Describe a difficult work situation / project and how you overcame it.
The interviewer wants to know what you do when you face a difficult decision. As with the question about stress, be prepared to share an example of what you did in a tough situation.

10. What are your goals for the future?
This question is designed to find out if you’re going to stick around or move on as soon as you find a better opportunity. Keep your answer focused on the job and the company you’re interviewing with.

Motivation Letter

My ambition to become an educator, to revolutionize my country’s education system, began when I was suffering endlessly while in high school. I, including other students, was deprived of a good quality of education. Teachers were not motivated, not determined and unqualified. Corruption prevailed. Most importantly, the curriculum was badly designed and out-of-date. Together with the financial hardship and insufficient materials, it is difficult to imagine how much students could actually gain from school. These cases are not uncommon in such a Third-World country. With this hindsight, despite the poverty trap my family was in, I was fortunate enough to be able to pursue my higher education after I won and was awarded the full national scholarship from

With this hindsight, despite the poverty trap my family was in, I was fortunate enough to be able to pursue my higher education after I won and was awarded the full national scholarship from Royal University of Phnom Penh, the national most prestigious higher educational institution. Having fixed ideas in mind, I decided to major in Education in English (TEFL) with the aim of changing the contemporary education system through gaining the insight into those western countries’ ones. Errors repeat. Contrary to my expectation, though in university, there are still shortcomings. Admittedly, despite the fact that some improvements have been made ranging from human resources to material ones, the main problem that still persists in higher education lies in the curriculum. That includes the curriculum that is poorly designed, complicated, ineffective, and not user-friendly. To say the least, they simply do not know what and how to teach. The courses assigned to be taken at the university are the examples. Most of them are just the exact duplication from those of foreign countries, which are hardly digested by students. Some are hard to understand while others are easy, but ineffective. In addition, poor instructional methods, shortage of effective instructional resources and insufficient pedagogical know-how further hinder students’ growth while they cannot really benefit from what they are being taught.

Having witnessed these perennial problems, my passion to be a teacher grows stronger, from an ordinary one to a senior educationalist working for the Ministry of Education whose role is to design and prepare curriculum for students of all levels since, currently in Cambodia, we do have very few of these specialists. However, in order to be one, learning in my country alone hardly helps. I have to explore the knowledge, techniques and skills practiced in other developed countries with high standard of education. Hence, in this meantime, I am applying for SAT Erasmus Mundus Undergraduate Exchange Program to take B.A in Education to study education-related courses at University of Minho, Portugal. Portugal, University of Minho to be exact, where education is highly prestigious, is an ideal platform for me to realize this wild dream of mine. University of Minho is renowned for its civilized system of education in producing scholars and having completely changed the image of higher education in Portugal. I really want the same scenario to exist in my country. Hence, at University of Minho, with its diverse and unique course offers, I hope I will be able to gain state-of-the-art knowledge and techniques in the field of education in order to develop and design a civilized and standardized curriculum for my fellow Cambodian students, a system that helps unlock their untapped potentials, offers them with the right and most practical knowledge, and importantly, helps them learn faster, easier and more effectively. Upon my course completion, I hope I will be one of the agents of change of my country’s education. By sharing my knowledge to others and putting it into practice in the very near future when returning back, under the most hopeful scenario, I firmly believe that my fellow youth will get chances to acquire a better system of education which is effective, up-to-date and well-structured. Moreover, education in my country will be soon as prestigious as that in the Portugal, breeding outstanding individuals for my country’s future development.

Taking my clear goals, determination, experiences as well as academic performance into consideration, I hope I am one of the successful candidates to be admitted to join this program. Nelson Mandela once said education is the most powerful weapon used to change the world. However, I said education alone has no power unless the systems, the HOW and the WHAT, of education itself are first powerful enough; and I am pretty sure that this program will provide me with these things: the knowledge that will ultimately shape the destiny of my nation.

Writing a Personal Statement for Scholarship and Fellowships

Writing a Personal Statement for Scholarship and Fellowships

Every viable candidate for the most competitive academic fellowships has a high GPA and stellar recommendations. What distinguishes the top candidates (the ones who are invited for interviews) from the others is the quality of the personal statement. It needs to showcase your accomplishments as well as communicate your vision for what you could achieve in the future. Most importantly, your personal statement should make the selection committee members remember you and want to meet you in an interview.

There is no single formula for writing a successful personal statement, just as there is no single profile of a fellowship winner. If you apply for multiple awards, you will likely have to write multiple versions of your personal statement, since different organizations look for different qualities in their candidates. Below are some general guidelines:

Personal statements for graduate fellowships and scholarships differ from personal statements for college admissions. While college admissions committees are looking for academic promise and potential interests, fellowships selection committees expect you to demonstrate professional expertise and insight in the field to which you are applying. For most study and research awards, it helps to think of the statement as an intellectual autobiography that defines a specific academic problem that interests you, explains how your particular work fits within the broader scholarly or professional field, proves your own expertise through detailed descriptions of past achievements, announces what you hope to do after the fellowship, and connects your proposed fellowship opportunity with these areas. In other words, you should tell a story of increasing expertise over time (especially in your college years) that leads smoothly into your plans for the future.

Choose examples wisely. When proving your claims, try to avoid anecdotes that only show the ways in which an event, course, or experience affected you. Instead, focus on examples that show your expertise, your approach to solving problems, your effective leadership, or another trait that you hope to showcase. What have you already done that will make a selection committee excited to invest in your future?

Successful personal statements cannot be written in one sitting or even in one week. Starting early is essential, and early may mean months in advance of the submission deadline. Some applicants write several very different draft versions of a personal statement before deciding which approach works best for them. Show drafts of your personal statement to as many people as you can (with the exception, of course, of awards like the Rhodes and Mitchell, which have rules against this). People who know you well should be able to read your personal statement and recognize that only you could have written it, that it doesn't sound at all generic. People who don't know you well should be able to read your personal statement and understand the major points you want to convey.

Make sure there are no grammatical errors in your essay and that the writing style is graceful by the time you are showing it to a campus committee. Take time to read your essay aloud and edit ruthlessly to avoid clichés and repetition. This essay needs to be representative of your very best work; make sure you give it the time it deserves!
