(Gimbel) “People are using their personal fun, cute emails. And they need to get one that’s professional. First name, last name, at a standard domain. Make it simple, make it easy.” Another common resume mistake, says Gimbel… Using abbreviations to save space. (Gimbel) “Don’t abbreviate, use real words, let’s be adults here.” Here’s what you should have on your resume… (Gimbel) “What your computer skills are, what you’ve actually accomplished, certain projects you took on, software packages that you’re a master at.” And if you’re a recent college grad, your education, put it up high. (Gimbel) “When you get over that 10 year period, you may want to put it at the bottom, but advertise it. If you have a degree, especially a masters, put it up front.” For more resume do’s and don’t’s go to casoneexchange.com. I’m Cheryl Casone with the FOX Business Network for FOX News Radio.

This is the time to figure out what skills you need to work at this company, and also to talk about future career plans. Impress them now. Ask for a written recommendation that you can keep. If the internship company isn’t hiring, give them a detailed list of what you’ve done this summer, and make sure they put it on letterhead in digital or paper format. Send thank you notes. We know the younger generation doesn’t hand write notes anymore, so be unique, and send them a hand-written thank you on paper. Write a list of internship accomplishments and skills learned. Update that resume ASAP because you never know when a connection at your current company can lead to another company’s doorstep. Finally, stay in touch. Your supervisor, fellow interns, and anyone that is a decision making individual at that company. A job may not be open now, but it could open tomorrow!

If you want to come across well at work — make sure you are properly interacting with others. FOX Business Network’s Cheryl Casone has some tips in this week’s “Hired”: Getting you Hired! I’m Cheryl Casone with the FOX Business Network. When it comes to body language at the office, you may be making some big mistakes that could cost you that promotion or hurt your reputation. Don’t touch your co-workers, even if it’s on the back of the arm or shoulder. Many of your colleagues are not comfortable with even innocent gestures. Be careful. Don’t avoid eye contact. Lack of it implies deception, and it can also point to insecurity or lack of confidence. Authority and confidence are traits you will communicate if you hold eye contact 50% of the time. Don’t have a bad handshake. You’re going to get instant credibility with a strong firm palm to palm handshake. Be careful of the dead fish handshake, and you don’t want to be to strong, as that comes across as a bully stance. Don’t tilt your head while listening to others. For women especially, you think you are expressing interest, but you actually come across as if you don’t understand what’s going on. Don’t forget about posture! Leaning back looks lazy, leaning forward looks aggressive. For more on all of this, go to casoneexchange.com. I’m Cheryl Casone with the FOX Business Network for FOX News Radio.

This week our look at the job market focuses on internships. FOX Business Network’s Cheryl Casone reports in “Hired!”: Getting you “Hired”! I’m Cheryl Casone with the FOX Business Network. There are an estimated 1.5 million internships presented each year, and at least one million undergrads will take an internship. Here are some internship do’s and don’t’s to get you eventually hired. Don’t complain! It’s okay if you don’t like the internship, but only let close family and friends know. You may get coffee and make copies all day, but you will need that reference at some point. It’s all about the resume. Don’t dress down or inappropriately. Your first impression has a lot to do with your clothes. It’s better to overdress than under-dress. Don’t say no! Hopefully at the end of the internship, you’re gonna get hired, but you have to stand out, and that means going the extra mile. Take any and all extra work opportunities. Finally, don’t forget your phone etiquette. Twenty-somethings don’t know what life was like without mobile devices and computers. Business gets done over the phone. Make sure you not only answer the phone, but get all the information needed for your boss or superior, they will appreciate your thoroughness. For more, go to casoneexchange.com.
