Safety first


How to Increase Safety in a New Home
To keep you and your loved ones safe should be priority number for anyone looking to move into a new home. Whether it’s your first or second time buying, it’s important to keep safety in mind and to accommodate those living with you as best as you can.
If you’re welcoming an elderly parent or relative into your home, assessing safety hazards is not something to be taken lightly. Fortunately, home safety doesn’t have to be a headache; all it takes is a few subtle renovations to make any living space a safe haven for you and yours.
Bathroom
Of the many rooms in a home, the bathroom is hands down the most dangerous. Not only is it frequently slippery, it is a room that you visit many times throughout the day. Upon visiting the restroom you risk potential falls, slips, and in some extreme cases, death due to wet surfaces. If bathroom safety is a concern of yours, try some of these affordable and easily installed solutions.
• Grab bars, shower chairs and raised toilet seats can significantly decrease bathroom mishaps upon installation.
• Lay down non-slip mats around your shower and bathtub, or anywhere harmful puddles gather.
• Keep all electrical devices and appliances away from sinks, showers, tubs and outlets.
• Ensure that your bathroom is always well lit.
Kitchen
Fires, grease spills, hazardous chemicals and sharp objects are all too common in a kitchen. Many have underestimated the dangers that lurk in this part of the home and have suffered countless, debilitating injuries. Although traditional kitchen etiquette can keep you out of trouble, there are still certain things you should always have in the back of your mind when you throw open the fridge and prepare a meal.
• First and foremost, get to know the appliances you use, including knives, to avoid unnecessary injury.
• Don’t rush yourself in the kitchen, always exercise extreme caution and be way of your surroundings.
• Cut back on distractions by keeping pets and children out of the kitchen.
• Always stir away from the body to prevent spills and burns.
Garage
The number of people who have suffered bodily harm in a garage is alarming. Among the many causes of death in a garage, exposure to chemicals and heavy machinery are two of the most prevalent. It’s also common for those working in a garage to lose limbs and fingers to power tools gone awry while working on home improvement projects. If you’re the DIY type, it may be safer to hang up the tool belt rather than putting yourself in harm’s way. But, if you insist on fixing it yourself, keep these practices in mind next time you start feeling like the Tool Man.
• Keep all tools regularly maintained and stored away.
• Remove objects that could potentially cause you to trip or fall.
• Store ladders horizontally to avoid head injuries and to prevent children from climbing.
• Unplug all power tools when not in use, and if you’re to be away from the garage for an extended period of time, unplug your garage door as well.
It doesn’t take much to make the family home a safer place. No matter whom you live with, or who you have over, always make sure that they have what they need and that the space you live in is a safe place to be. All it takes is one mistake for someone’s life to be changed forever, so as you assess the dangers in your home, be thorough, be understanding, and most importantly, be welcoming

NDT job Resume Tips & Tricks

Resume Tips


Applicant Tacking Software (ATS)Today, large employers use applicant tracking software (ATS) programs for initial applicant screenings. ATS allows employers and recruiters to screen, rank, and filter resumes and CVs. This information is useful for finding matches between openings and applicants. Employers use ATS programs to maintain a database of applicant and job information. The value of this information is enhanced if it can be stored and retrieved electronically comprehensive recruitment workflow, screening, ranking, filtering, scheduling and searching candidates along with custom reports and dashboards.

Make sure the keywords in the executive summary and bulleted qualifications and achievements replicate those in the job posting.
Keywords alone aren’t enough. State-of-the-art ATS technology relies on contextualization as well. Frame keywords with descriptive material that demonstrates experience and familiarity with the subject.
Do not use abbreviations such as “Mgr” instead of “Manager.” It is unlikely that the ATS has been programmed with a list of abbreviations to stand in for keywords.
Avoid misspellings. A misspelled keyword is a keyword that the ATS will miss, lowering your ranking.
If the ATS offers options, opt for uploading your resume instead of cutting and pasting. This feature often parses information and saves it in the optimal format, ensuring the cleanest presentation.
To avoid choking an ATS with a highly formatted resume, make sure your resume is in a clear, concise format, with your contact information located at the top instead of in the header or footer.
Do not include graphics or logos on a resume; they can garble the information the ATS processes.
If you’re being referred by an employee, make sure the ATS knows it, because it’s “smart” enough to recognize it and will rate your resume higher.


Include an executive summary at the top of the resume. In a few sentences describe what makes you a solid match for the particular position.
Provide employment summary details. Sort your previous positions by date; start with your most recent employer, and then continue in descending order.
Gaps in employment longer than 30 days should be covered. You'll be more likely to impress an employer if you can show that you used the time between jobs to acquire new skills or additional qualifications.
Make the most of your skills and strengths when building your own resume. With your resume before them, employers can visualize how you will operate within the framework of their organization, and how your skills and abilities will be utilized in the future development of the company.
If you have served in the military, include this experience. Military personnel offer a great deal of experience and dedication to prospective nondestructive testing employers.
Provide the record of your college, technical school and/or certificate history. Emphasize those skills, the education and training that specifically pertain to the position you're looking for. List the highlights of your education and training that clearly fit the type of skills employers are looking for.
Include all of your necessary skills and background information. This section provides employers with the general overview of your NDT experience, training and background that they request. Be as specific as possible. Provide full names when listing NDT methods, applications and equipment used.
Include key accomplishments that demonstrate your success as an employee. Wherever possible provide metrics used to illustrate having met goals and desired performance objectives.
If you’ve received honors and/or recognitions which are demonstrate skills or talents relevant to the position, include those in your resume.
