Ghazal maestro Mehdi Hassan passes away

India-born Ghazal legend Mehdi Hassan, the melodious voice behind evergreen hits like 'Patta patta, boota boota' and 'Kab ke Bichhare', died 13 June, 2012 following multiple organ failure at the age of 84.
Hassan, who had millions of fans in India and Pakistan, had been admitted to the Agha Khan Hospital in the southern port city of Karachi some days ago. He had been in a serious condition and was on ventilator.

Hassan was born into a family of traditional musicians at Luna village in India's Rajasthan state in 1927. His family migrated to Pakistan at the time of Partition in 1947.

Hassan cut back on his performances in the late 1980s due to illness. Hassan leaves behind his nine sons and five daughters. He married twice. Both his wives are dead.

The maestro, who began his career primarily as a 'thumri' singer, earned recognition within the musical fraternity at the time when Ustad Barkat Ali Khan, Begum Akhtar and Mukhtar Begum were considered the stalwarts of ghazal rendition.

It was his passion for Urdu poetry that made him take up ghazal singing on a part-time basis but he soon became its greatest star.

There was a time in Pakistan's film industry when a film was considered incomplete without Hassan's voice. He ruled the Pakistani film world along with Ahmed Rushdi in the 1960s-70s.

He was the recipient of numerous awards and recognitions: the 'Tamgha-i-Imtiaz' granted to him by Gen Ayub Khan; the 'Pride of Performance' bestowed on him by Gen Ziaul Haq; and the 'Hilal-i-Imtiaz' conferred by Gen Pervez Musharraf.

Besides the Nigar Film and Graduate Awards from Pakistan, he was presented the Saigal Award in Jalandhar, India, in 1979, while the Gorkha Dakshina Bahu Award was given to him in Nepal in 1983.

Hassan stopped singing in the late 80s due to ill health. Despite his ailments, Hassan had a great desire to sing with Lata Mangeshkar. In 2010, "Sarhadein", an album which had the first and last duet song "Tera Milana" by Mehdi Hassan and Lata Mangeshkar, was released.

Searching For Jobs When Times Are Hard, How To Make Yourself Stand Out

7.7 million Americans were unemployed at the end of 2007, according to the Department of Labor. Out of these 7.7 million people, and with a questionable economic forecast, how are you going to make yourself stand out and get the job? With a few tips, you may find yourself with more options that you think.
In a challenging economic environment, the most important tip for job seekers is to use your network. With less jobs and more competition, any edge up is going to be useful. When you invest time in relationships with colleagues through professional associations, alumni groups, friends, family or church groups, you may find out about an opening before the general public.
Another tip for job seekers that is under-utilized is making phone calls to companies. If you know there is an opening or think they are going to hiring soon, do what you can to get on the phone with the hiring manager, or that person's supervisor. This may take a little digging to find out who the right person is to contact, but your initiative could be rewarded with an interview. For example, if someone in your alumni club mentions to you that XYZ, Co. just got a new contract and will need to add staff. Call the new project lead and ask for an interview.
When you are actively job seeking, staying organized can be the most important advice. Keep track of your prospects. You will want to have the job announcement, your cover letter, along with notes about the position and company, the names of the interviewers, the status of the interview, and any tasks for follow-up, including a thank you card. Keeping track of this information will help you if you get called back and for networking possibilities. It is important to follow-up with all interviews. While you may have dropped out of the running for the original position, by following up and reminding them of your skills and availability, you may considered for the next position they have available, or agree to pass your name on to others in the company or industry.
Research and preparation can never be minimized when job seeking, but when times are tight, this can help you stand out. Don't go into an interview without a good understanding of the company. Research the services or products and come up with one or two clarifying questions about the company. This will show the interviewer that you are interested in the work they do and are already thinking about how you could contribute. Many companies have web sites that can give you this information quite easily. If you can get a sense for the corporate philosophy, be sure to incorporate this into your answers in the interview. The more you know about the company, the more you can apply your skills directly to the work they do.
Depending on what career section you are looking at, your prospects may not be so bad. Service sector jobs are actually on the increase, to include technical and professional services, food service and health care. Regardless of your field, going forward with these tips and a positive attitude will make a difference to prospective employers.

Using Social Media To Improve Job Chances

December 8 2011 - An analysis of 100 polls conducted by worldwide job search engine www.SimplyHired.com has shed some light on the impotance of social media in the process of job-hunting. Gautam Godhwani, co-founder and CEO said:
"The slow recovery of our economy has changed the way job seekers look for jobs as well as what they look for in the work they choose. Today’s job seekers rely more heavily on social networking and referrals to find a job. In addition, job seekers are looking for more than just financial security - they prefer jobs that fit their personal requirements, whether that means location, benefits or even the company’s recycling policy."
Some of the highlights of the survey:
  • 51% of employees were hired through a friend’s referral
  • Among people using social networks in their job search, LinkedIn was most effective (54%), followed by Facebook (22%)
  • 82% of job seekers would prefer a lower-paying job they loved than a higher-paying one they didn’t like
  • 41% of job seekers with children would prefer to work full-time - even if money and childcare were not issues
  • 18% of recent graduates had a job lined up upon graduation
Until recently, the rules of the game were simple: post your resume or CV on a host of jobsites and recruiters would come looking for you. But the game has changed and is continuing to evolve, according to recruiters at MRINetwork, one of the world’s largest search and recruitment organizations.
Tony McKinnon, president of MRINetwork said:
"Social media sites have become increasingly important platforms for finding jobs by facilitating connections and demonstrating the achievements and interests of job seekers. But capturing the attention of prospective employers and recruiters - who have made the sites a routine part of their searches - has also become more difficult because of the overwhelming amount of information available."
He offers several useful tips to adapt job seekers' messages so they are more likely to 'go viral':
  1. Keep it simple. Text should be pruned to a core message and always stick to the point. Don't leave room for misinterpretation. McKinnon advises that any superfluous or flowery language and clever wordplay should be removed. "Remember, too, that your audience may include many for whom English is a second language." But, he cautions, brevity should not come at the expense of clarity. People should be able to tell:
    • what your message is
    • why it is important
    • why it affects them personally, and

Guide to Psychometric Tests for Interim Jobs

We’ve all had the conversation. A friend’s been for a job interview, "Blimey," he says nervously, "They asked me to do a psychometric test. No idea if I ticked the right boxes..."
Between 65% and 70% of interim management job interviews now involve some form of psychometric testing with many standard job positions also requiring these tests to be performed as part of the hiring process. But what is a psychometric test? What’s your potential new employer really looking for? And what’s the best way to make sure you pass the test and get the job?

Typically, a psychometric test might include questions on numeracy and literacy - but there’ll also be questions about your attitudes and feelings as well. And don’t be surprised if some questions seem to repeat themselves. That’s to check the consistency of your answers.
So if you’re faced with a psychometric test when you go for your interim job interview, what is the best way to make sure that you do well? Here are a couple of tips:
