I've been out of the work force for 4 years due to having/raising a child and relocating out of the country because my husband is in the military. We are getting ready to return to the states. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
How do you explain a gap in employment?
I would tell the truth. There is nothing wrong with what you did and it's perfectly acceptable reason. I'm usually on the hiring side and have no problems with someone taking time off raising children. Besides, starting off your employment with a lie is not a good way to begin things. HR folks can usually smell something fishy a mile away.
Good luck!

How long do employers have to keep employment applications on file in alabama?
Most places discard unhired applications after a year as not "fresh"; hired ap's stay with employee records, usually untill 7 years after they leave.
How long do employers have to keep employment applications on file in alabama?
I don't think they're required to keep them on file at all. They can just throw them in the trash if they like.

Why employment agencies hurry to get your signature then do nothing much?
How they benifit without finding a job..Is there anyway to directly approch employers, like putting my resume to the web and employers read this?
Why employment agencies hurry to get your signature then do nothing much?
In most cases, employment agencies do absolutley NOTHING for you. I was registered with at least 5 agencies last year and some would call me and ask me if i am interested in a job and i'd say yes - they'd send my resume to that company - who was not interested. I did get some assignments from agency "A" but then after one where i was basically "begged and coerced into it" i decided that agency was not a help. - long story - Others called me up after i had sent them a resume with promises of jobs - only to find out there were none. This happened with one in particular. The others were eager to help me at the time, but nothing ever happened. In most cases agencies pay crappy wages. my time and education is worth money i do not work for minimum wage whe n i know the going rate is much higher. The agency who coreced me - recently called me up again and told me about a job in my field i was actualy excited about this -until she indicated there'd be reception involved. Now this woman knows that i don't do reception she knows that it is not my thing and yet she still calls me about it geez. These agency people do not listen either - you say the kind of job you want and WHERE you are seeking work and still the calls come in where the location is in tumbuktoo where it would take 2 hours one way to get there.
Reply:I think they only benenfit when you work. They probably want you to list everything you know how to do, open up and stuff, and when you're not a match, they forget about you and move on. They probably assume if they don't seem interested you wouldn't follow through. Just a guess!

Reply:A co-worker was found drinking on the job. He's a great guy, just was in a bad life situation. Problem was, he is the shop teacher. They gave him a year off to go into rehab. He's back now and better than ever.
Reply:I think it can fall under a safety violation because they were mentally impared.

How do you delay an offer of employment to see what other opportunities arise?
I have a second interview with a company tomorrow, but I'm not really sure I want to work with them. I am waiting to see a response Monday from another company. What should I do if the first company makes an offer at the interview? Just say I cant make a decision right away?
How do you delay an offer of employment to see what other opportunities arise?
the best thing i can think of as an employer is to tell them you would like to take the weekend to think it over

Would like to move to the UK from the United States. How can I find employment first?
Our family would like to move to the UK soon from the United States. Are there any recommendations on where to find employment in the UK while still living in the States? I understand you can only immigrate while you have a work Visa. You cannot just show up and then start job hunting. So how do you get a job in the UK before you move? Thanks!!

The UK economy is doing pretty well at the moment, if you are really good at anything you can get a good job, but costs are high and wages lower than in the states. The social wage, i.e. Health care education is good in the UK but only for UK/EU citizens - you need to check this out as free health and education is one of the reasons wages are lower. London and the South East economically are completely different from the rest of England - more on a par with Switzerland financially. Niche jobs in the health service are in short supply, skilled tradesmen earn, Website developers with Flash Pro skills can name their price. In other words it's a sophisticated market. Serving coffee is dominated by the Polish, lower level service jobs are definitely to be avoided.

Reply:Well I would not object at all to you coming to the UK to work! But it won't be easy.
It would be a question of finding a skill or trade that is in short supply in the UK. Many British people long to become skilled or get a trade and can't because there is no Government funding to help them do this. So when the Government say there are "skill shortages" what it means is that there are people willing to train up to do these jobs but they can't be bothered to help them because its cheaper to import labour than train it up from within.
The UK job market is currently flooded with Eastern European migrants and they are driving down wages and making it harder for even some skilled UK workers. however I do beleive there are still areas where the Government claims there are "skill shortages" and there are always places for highly educated academics, doctors etc.
The first question would be what do you do, what experience you have and then researching jobs and companies in that area. Good luck!

I´m actually not sure - I´m just embarassed by how ignorant some people make the British sound - please don´t listen to the idiots that make out as if we´re full - they are so short-sighted i doubt they´ve been out of a ten metre diameter in their lives!! Sounds like some people have given sensible answers so listen to them - although I would really suggest seaking advice from an immigration lawyer - they will have far better advice. Good luck!!
