Leveraging the Tools of Business: Microsoft Office

February 13, 2011Brandon S. Ellison, MBA, PHRwww.thehrwiz.com Moving along with this month’s topic, I want to stress that this blog is by no means supposed to be about technology tutorials. After this month, I want to get to more HR and Recruiting related topics, but I feel that these are the most basic tools of every professional. If you work with these programs on a daily basis, it will benefit you to have a working understanding of their capabilities.…See More

Brandon S. Ellison, MBA, PHR replied to Rayanne's discussion 'I Hate to Be the One to Disagree, But...'

"Well said. I've written hundreds of resumes for clients over the years and I can't agree more. I used to write IT resumes, and I never used a cover letter. I would always include a short executive summary at the top, but no cover…"

Leveraging the Tools of Business: Microsoft Office

February 3, 2011Brandon S. Ellison, MBA, PHRwww.thehrwiz.comNew month, new topic! I have been kicking around several different ideas of topics to cover in the month of February and I’ve finally landed on one that I think well be beneficial to most people: Microsoft Office.
