Don't write run-on sentences under your job titles. Don't write general, task-oriented phrases that don't give a sense of what you achieved in the role. Don't include a line stating what role you're applying for. "All it needs to focus on is your impact," he says about your resume. It lends itself to quantifying your impact by saying, "I helped double impressions on the website," for example.

When you're writing yours, you'll want to make sure it meets their criteria and doesn't give them a reason to pass on your candidacy. Here are three phrases former Google recruiter and current CEO of salary data company FairComp, Nolan Church, recommends avoiding. "I don't give a s--- about your tasks," Church says. A 'word salad' of keywordsCareer experts recommend using keywords from the job description to prove you meet the role's criteria. People tend to "have this word salad based off of what the [job description] says," says Church.

When you're looking for a new job, it may seem like a no-brainer to let as many people as possible know. But career experts differ on their opinions about LinkedIn's "open to work" banner, the green sign that shows up just under your photo if you choose to activate it. "It is the biggest red flag" in a job candidate, says Nolan Church, former Google recruiter and current CEO of salary data company FairComp. With that banner activated, "because you need something from me, that means that I have the power in this conversation," she says. But not all career experts agree, and LinkedIn's own data does not necessarily support this thinking.

On Jan. 9, TikToker Brittany Pietsch posted a video of her layoff from tech company Cloudflare. The video went viral, with various outlets weighing in both on how the company handled the layoff and Pietsch's choice to post it at all. "I documented my layoff because at that point I was already very active on TikTok," she tells Make It. "I think that this is insanely risky for future job prospects," says Nolan Church, former Google recruiter and current CEO of salary data company FairComp. You could still make a measured, professional post in that moment, but it would be just as easy to get emotional.

AdvertisementAs millions of Americans get ready to watch the total solar eclipse on Monday — an event NASA has described as rare and "spectacular" — the phenomenon stands to lift local economies. According to NASA, this year's eclipse is set to last three to four minutes, longer than the last solar eclipse, in 2017. Former President Donald Trump looked up at the solar eclipse without glasses during the last eclipse. The glasses sold for $1.50 to $2 apiece. "We've shipped already about 70 million glasses, and I suspect I'm going to approach right at 75 million by the time next week comes," Jerit said.

More than half, 58% of men and 61% of women, say they didn't ask for higher pay the last time they were hired, according to the Pew Research Center. The higher you start, the higher that salary will get over time. Here's how Church recommends going about negotiating for more pay during an interview. And when it's time to make that offer, "typically, companies begin the offer negotiation at the bottom of the band." After the interview process, when you get a job offer, Church recommends asking your prospective employer two questions.

Before former President Donald J. Trump’s social media company made its stock market debut, many investors were lining up to bet on its collapse. After the company’s share price plunged following an initial surge, the appetite to bet against the stock has grown even more ravenous. Trump Media is the most “shorted” special purpose acquisition vehicle in the country, according to the financial data company S3 Partners. Short-sellers bet that the price of a stock will fall. The demand to short Trump Media, the parent company of the social media platform Truth Social, is so great that stock lenders can charge enormous fees, making it hard for short-sellers to turn a profit unless the shares fall significantly.

Braden Fiske is a defensive tackle for Florida State projected to be drafted by the NFL. AdvertisementUntil recently, the National Collegiate Athletic Association barred student athletes from being compensated despite the billions of dollars their efforts were earning for their universities. College athletes can also receive money by autographing signs, creating or sharing branded content, making guest appearances, and being a spokesperson for a company or brand.

Despite enticing alternatives, a fixed-rate mortgage remains the best option for us. With mortgage interest rates still close to 7%, alternative mortgages like adjustable-rate loans and mortgages with shorter maturities are gaining in popularity. AdvertisementThe beauty of the fixed-rate mortgage is that it offers certainty in an uncertain world. Any gain somebody might get with a lower interest rate might be offset by paying more for the house. So, we will be sticking with a fixed-rate mortgage and shopping around for the best rate.

There are, of course, a few behaviors you'll want to avoid, such as phrases that could turn your interviewer off. Some are "major red flags," says Nolan Church, former recruiter at Google and CEO of salary data company FairComp. These can be phrases like "I work too hard" or "I'm a perfectionist," says Church. They could think you're either not being honest about who you are as a person or you genuinely think you can't get better as a worker. Instead of these empty phrases, Church recommends giving an example of a mistake you made, what you learned from it and how you improved going forward.

Nvidia's chips primed the company to leverage the latest AI boom. Advancements in AI have fields beyond tech — like healthcare and finance — racing to figure out how to implement the technology. To do so, you need chips known as graphics processing units or GPUs that will power the AI tech. An Nvidia spokesperson declined to comment but pointed to a December blog post outlining how the company supports ventures "harnessing Nvidia technologies." "The biology companies, the healthcare companies, financial services companies, AI developers, large-language model developers, autonomous vehicle companies, robotics companies … All of these startups, large companies, healthcare, financial services and auto and such are working on NVIDIA's platform, Huang in an earnings call in February.

A onetime commodities backwater, congestion trading has become a growing business in recent years as the demand for electricity and volatility on the power grid in the US has soared. The financial category, which includes specialized power-trading companies, banks, hedge funds, and large proprietary trading firms, dominates the market, in part because the physical power firms typically operate in only one or two regions. He launched three congestion trading teams for the firm, including in California and Texas after those states introduced congestion trading in 2008 and 2010, respectively. Citadel, along with Susquehanna International Group and Tower Research, has been involved in FTR trading since the market's infancy. Volatility has been increasing on the power grid, in part because of changing weather patterns, Jeev added.

Hong Kong CNN —A year after making its advertising debut at the Super Bowl, Chinese-backed online shopping platform Temu is redoubling efforts in its most important market with a second ad on America’s biggest stage and $15 million in coupons and other giveaways. The Boston-based firm — owned by PDD (PDD), the group behind Chinese online shopping giant Pinduoduo — paid for three ads during the game and two after the game. Commercials for the 2024 Super Bowl sold for higher rates than for last year’s game, with a range of $6.5 million to $7 million per 30-second spot broadcast on TV channel CBS, two individuals familiar with this year’s advertising sales told CNN. “The commercial marks the highlight of a Super Bowl campaign that featured more than $15 million in coupons and giveaways,” Temu said in a statement. As a result, PDD’s market capitalization soared that month, eclipsing that of older e-commerce rival Alibaba (BABA) for the first time.

Publicly listed data company LiveRamp's $200 million acquisition of data clean room provider Habu looks set to fire the starting pistol for a more buoyant year of adtech and martech M&A, experts have predicted. He noted that while ad teams aren't using these clean rooms en masse, many have activated them, which bodes well for the Habu acquisition. ID5's technology is deployed by the most online publishers of any identity service, according to Sincera , which measures which adtech companies are used across the industry. LiveRamp, also, could be an acquisition target, Salmon noted, as it builds out new data offerings like the clean rooms it will inherit from Habu. But not everyone is predicting the Habu acquisition will necessarily lead to an influx of M&A around cookieless adtech.

Habu will help LiveRamp expand its base of small and midsize clients.

The Israel-Hamas war is affecting travel across the Middle East and beyond. Canceling plans a continent awayYet, the war's effect on travelers extends far beyond the Middle East, according to a survey from Morning Consult. Respondents said these plans included visits to the Middle East (12%) and North Africa (7%), as well as Western Europe (14%), according to the survey. Cancelations were high for domestic trips because most Americans travel within the 50 states, thus "there are simply more trips on the table to disrupt," the report stated. Some 52% of respondents with knowledge of the war said they viewed traveling to the Middle East as "very unsafe," compared to 29% of those who had not heard about it.
