Occupational health and safety emergence, has supposed a 180 degree change, both in the working life and day by day of workers.

From ECB Engineering Firm, we want to give the importance it deserves to this day that has changed the all worker lives. For us, as a business consultant focused on personnel selection, feel safe and healthy in our jobs is essential to make the company a place where optimal conditions are combined so that all workers can develop their work and their operations in the best possible way.

This great occupational health transformation goes back to the Industrial Revolution, when the rights of workers as such arise. But it is not until the 70s when there really is an improvement in the quality of life of employees, thanks to the pressure exerted by the labor unions at this time.

Since then, all business agents are involved in this matter. Understanding this task, such as the equipment provision and responsibilities assumption both by the employer, and by workers of comply with occupational health and safety protocols.

What jobs do I need to take care of job security in my company?

To mitigate these data there are two different slopes. On the one hand, there are jobs related to health, security and environment. Profiles as a quality technician and environment or security and health technician, who are responsible for various responsibilities: from safety audits in plant to supervision and control of work accidents.

Job security profiles have the necessary knowledge about the protective materials that should be used in each workplace. They are responsible for verifying the worker physical training to perform their work. In this same line, the PRL can avoid accidents by training workers in the treatment of high temperatures in heat waves.

Definitely, although health and safety technicians cannot avoid human errors, for example the fall of a tool, what they do is prevent any damage that these errors may cause.

On the other hand, we can find companies whose reason for being is worker protection, as material supply. These companies are called EPIs or what is the same, Individual Protection Equipment.

This important sector have a great business concentration although it is becoming smaller by the companies that are forced to leave the market due to the competition existing in the cost prices and retail. For this reason, most of the Spanish companies that are operating in the EPIs sector have decided to outsource their production, especially to Asia and Africa, with the aim of lowering costs, being more competitive and surviving in a sector that presents so much rivalry.

How do I improve job security in my company?

In this sense, we have to continue advance to our quality labor life improve, making use of both PRL professionals and EPI companies. By combining all our efforts we will reduce this data to the maximum.

In ECB Engineering firm we are specialized in the search and hiring of security and health professionals with experience in fields such us risks prevention or plants control, among others. We know the difficulties to find this type of profiles and act as allies of our client companies to find the best candidates and finalize the selection process with the desired success.

No company should has been behind if it does not want to stay out of the game and give away its market share to the competitors who have adapted. But of course, any change gives distrust and uncertainty since online strategy is completely different from offline, which has dominated the previous decades with more expensive methods and in occasions not as productive or “measurable results” as the online method.

Digital advertising allows reaching greater number of people, taking advantage of the fact that we surf constantly on the Internet and use it for any query, purchase, reservation or reading. Most people have a computer at home and a Smartphone in their pocket. Moreover, online shopping is becoming very common and generates more confidence. On the other hand, it is a cheaper advertising medium and can achieve amazing goals.

This new digital stage has positively influenced the labor market. As expert selection company in engineers and IT / IT technology experts, we can affirm the remarkable employment generation within this sector. According to a study prepared by the FTI Foundation of Ametic, from 2013 to 2017 the marketing and communication area has included 81% of new business profiles, 16% in the Strategy and Business Management area and 3% in Legal. Regarding to production profiles, 53% are linked to the Programming area and 47% to Visual Design and Art and Creativity. Hence, adapted companies have professionals such as SEM Specialists, who carry their AdWords campaigns; Social Media Strategists o Community Managers to generate engagement with theirs clients; ecommerce Managers, who manage the digital sale; SEO specialists, who help the new visibility on Internet search engines; or Content Managers, who make it possible that content generated be useful for their customers.

Despite the growing presence of this department in companies, continue having company leaders stuck in the past. In relation with this, we can differentiate three types of businessman that we mentioned together with a short recommendation.

• The ”curator”: We must execute all actions thinking, but bearing in mind that we cannot invent the future if we cling to outdate ideas, even if it has worked in the past.
• The ”innovative apprentice”: It can become a teacher, sharing wisdom with young people (Sometimes you must “lose your pride” because we can learn from everyone).
• The “suicidal experimenter”: Most of the most surprising advances were built on a crazy ideas base. As Jeff Bezos said (Amazon´s CEO): “No success without mishaps, no progress without setbacks” (a good Digital Marketing strategy does not offer setbacks).

pic_businessman_types

In order to perform any business action we should acquire a position that combines the three personalities referred to above: second option is very productive, but never lay aside the other ones: try and take a chance, always thinking.

One step further, technology advances exponentially and is being implemented in all companies. If you have not updated your company, which is digital marketing, imagine the extra effort that will involve dragging it to the next technology change. The next stage will be Big Data, which is very close. It is about the complete digitalization of each of the company’s processes by integrating data processing technologies and intelligent software, which generate a set of infinity data. Big Data allows us to generate notable improvements in the company procedures in order to be more effective and increase performance with lower costs and time.

Maybe it is time to change before business duties accumulate. He does not believe? For that purpose ECB Engineering Firm will provide you help in selection of Marketing / Technology profiles – IT / Engineering, that better adapt to your company needs to face this digital transformation in an efficient, agile and effective way.

Steve Jobs gave a speech, in Standford university, on three stories of his life and how these helped him to achieve success. In the first story he spoke about the importance of joining the dots. In this line, Jobs learned calligraphy at university. By then it did not make professional sense but he liked it. Ten years later he understood its importance when he developed his first Mac.

The most relevant factors of enjoying good occupational health is the relationship with our co-workers. It is very important to have a good relationship inside our job because they improve your mood and your motivation to perform your functions. Following this line, Seek the support of your colleagues with whom you feel more affinity.

Get away of the dark side

For this reason, it is recommended to avoid negativity and highlight the positive aspects of both your position and the company where you are. The goal is to fight for what can be improved and get away when the conversations are not going to be productive.

Closed for rest

Even if you have a lot of work, it is recommended that you rest for a few minutes. It will help you to refresh the ideas and to be more productive. In relation with this, you can enjoy open air, talk with a partner or read something different are the best way to find the solution you were looking for. At same time, do your best to disconnect and enjoy your personal time at the end of your workday.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

When we have been doing the same thing for a long time, we can lose the objective and not to see clearly the importance and value of our work. On the other hand, a source of professional motivation it could be to know the value of what you do and how important it is to other people and departments in your company. If you do not have external recognition, be proud of your achievements yourself. Go out to dinner for celebrating the good work you have done!

To infinity and beyond

Each job requires a time for people to feel the need to have new challenges that motivate them. So, try to have a map drawn with your professional career but with flexibility because life is full of unforeseen events and do not obsess about fulfilling the times. Assess the possibility of having a job advancement and if it is not the right time, look for new skills that you can develop in relation with that goal. This advice will help you to see things in a different way with a clear goal in your head.

In any case, any tools that you put into practice, remember that you are the only person who can help you. Recognize what are the problem causes is a way to guide solutions that you need. It is possible to work in the position that you like, you should try it. It is worth to reach the infinite!

1. 1. Don´t exclude yourself. All positions have achievements.

There are work positions where is easier identify achievements than others. Do not think that only CEOs reach achievements. Each work position exist because is expected a result from it. For this reason, you must be aware that achievements are specific improvements, assumed challenges and your ability to achieve them.

2. Start by making a list

Firstly, you should do a list of all functions you have performed. In this way, you will identify your achievements made. In addition, you can help yourself searching in employment sites. Review your list elaborately, ask yourself why you have done each of your functions and what has been the objective of it. Finally of this, you will have a results and achievements sketch.

Focus on the most determinant achievements of your career: Do not include the least relevant information, you will have time to highlight it in a personal interview. At this point, it is advisable to dispense with far removed in time information or not important information for new company.

4. And, where do you include it?

Your document should be coherent and shocking and for this, you must analyze where your achievements are. We recommend you not to make a different section but include it within specific professional experience of each company. In this way, use the action-result methodology: Firstly, describe the performed function and then, write an achievement example.

For instance, if you are a web programmer, you can start describing your functions and highlighting an important result. Web sites programmer and development. Completion of 5 web pages developed using innovative technologies and tools (JAVA, JAVASCRIPT, ANGULAR JS, HTML5, CSS3).

5. The numbers matter

Measuring your results in numbers are easier for selectors. Because of this, you should think your achievements in quantitative and measurable results. Here, remember the three relevant elements: money, time and efforts.

A commercial area example it would be: Business development, customer acquisition and loyalty (function): new client contribution, a multi-channel company in IT sector with an average turnover of XXXX annual euros (achievements).

6. synthesis focused on achievements

In this part, you should identify which is your next professional aim and present it clearly.

These types of complementary knowledge examples will present your skills in a clear way about what can you achieve inside new company and the value you can bring to the department.

Programmers are nowadays one of the most demanded profiles, but they manage a lot of information that can be hard to organize in a two pages document. In the case of a programmer’s cv there are 3 elements that must be included: the technologies mastered, the finished projects, and the role developed in every project.

ECB Engineering firm, a recruitment company specialized in the technology sector, gathers in this post some remarkable tips than can be used to improve a programmer’s cv, taking into account that the final goal of a cv is always getting an appealing job interview.

If you are not a fan of reading, there is an infographic at the end of the post with the 12 things every programmer cv should have

1.Technologies in a Programmer Cv

One of the most common mistakes is to create a section where all the technologies are stack one after another in an infinite line. This doesn’t allow an IT recruiter to understand your level in any of them. The point many programmer’s cv share in common is the list of technologies. For the reader not to lose interest in yours, add further information after every technology.

2.Organizing Technologies

We recommend to include the technologies in the projects you have developed, don’t abandon them without the rest of the information that could be crucial for a new job: the module and what you used it for. In this case, a section with the technologies you master makes sense, because every technology will be followed by a description and it is part of a specific project. Don’t worry if some technologies are repeated in different projects because that shows your experience.

State-of-the-art technologies are highly valued by recruiters because they indicates that you remain up to date. Complementary technologies are also important because they show how your professional profiles is evolving.

3.Include those you master

There are too many technologies out there in the market: software programming technologies, apps programming technologies, web programming technologies… it is an endless list.  Prioritize those you master according to its extended use, durability or because they are the latest one.

The usual languages: Java, Ruby, Phyton, C#.Net

Apple & Google: Mobility – objective-C y Swift (iOS) and JAVA-Android SDK (Android)

Web: AngularJS (Javascript), HTML5, CSS3…

Database: SQL server, oracle and MySQL remain in the top. The new ones are MongoDB or HBase

Big Data: Ecosystems such as Hadoop and Spark

4.Projects

The chronological order continues to be the most functional one because it shows the professional evolution of a candidate. It also facilitates the reader to understand your career. We recommend to add a short description of the projects you have developed in every company you have worked for.

An important information every IT recruiter misses in a programmer cv is: the phase of the project. There is a huge difference between a complete new project and one that is in a maintenance phase. A very good thing to do is to include a link to the project, but this is as good as difficult to do.

5.Working Team

Being part of a work team, the role you play on it or the skill to manage a team is a remarkable information to add in a programmer cv because it says a lot about you. Remember to add how many people were part of every project you include in your cv, your responsibility within the team, and the geographical location, if they were sit next to you or if they work in an office in the other part of the planet. Feel free to write if you were the only programming in a project, it means that you are quite responsible and organized.

6.Achievements

The goals you achieved in your previous professional experience help the reader to visualize your future potential. Time and cost are two important elements to take into account when talking about objectives. Quantitative data related to time and money are easy facts to measure the objectives you’ve met during your career.

7.Portfolio

Few are the professions with the advantage of including a short link that can describe your work so easily. IT professionals have the chance to show their work in detail, increasing their probabilities to be hired. Don’t miss that chance, include in your cv a link to your work and show the world how good you are!

8.Personal Projects and Online Communities

The time spent in personal projects related to your professional career are the best way to show your passion for technology, your curiosity and self-learning. These projects, as well as your participation in online communities, say more about your experience than any other project you’ve developed. Both of them are valuable features, so don’t be afraid to write all that work you’ve been doing in your free time.

9.Skills

A good way to present your personal skills is complementing them with an example, because a long list of skills such as “proactive”, “responsible” or “leader” don’t add any value by themselves. We recommend to choose your 3 best skills and give them some support with a goal achieved thanks to them.

10.Extract

A 4 or 5 lines summary of your career allows the reader to understand your professional profile before reading the whole document. Include a short description of your position and your most relevant experience. The last part should be focused on what you’d like to do in your next position.

11.Social Media

If you use social media to promote your work, obviously there must be a link to them in your cv. On the contrary, if your Linkedin, Instagram or Twitter is full of your personal life pictures or opinions, it is better not to include them in your cv.

12.Telecommuting

In the software programming world it is very common to find professionals who are not interested at working in a company where their presence in the office is required every day. If you are only interested in telecommuting, this is an important information that should be listed in your résumé.
