Job interview coaching, Episode 393.

Unlike most, we don’t focus on the STAR method or predictable interview questions.

Instead, we prepare you to connect with the interviewer on a deeper level, demonstrating – with your words, actions, and presence – that you are the ideal fit for the role.

You may not realize it, but many top-level decision-makers rely on their intuition alongside logic. Our approach is designed to influence their heart, not just their mind.

Join me and experience this unique coaching firsthand. Like many VPs and C-suite managers who have been my guests, you’ll leave feeling truly empowered.

To Your Success, Anatoly

#MustWatch Young, Famous and African  (Reality TV Series)

У нас в Уральском регионе очень красивая природа. Здесь много лесов, гор, рек и озёр.
В 100 километрах от Екатеринбурга есть уникальный природный парк. Этот парк был создан в 1999 году. Его площадь 12000 гектаров.
Парк называется «Оленьи ручьи». Однажды здесь нашли наскальный рисунок оленя. Поэтому парк назвали «Оленьи ручьи».
Туристы очень любят этот парк. Это удивительное место! Можно весь день гулять по лесу, пересекать реку по мостам, подниматься на скалы, заходить в пещеры. 
Туристам предлагают 5 маршрутов по парку. Самый короткий маршрут – 4 километра, а самый длинный – 18 километров. 
Летом люди плавают по реке на каноэ и сапах. А зимой обычно приезжают сюда, чтобы сходить в русскую баню и сделать шашлыки на свежем воздухе. Если хотите, на территории парка можно остаться на ночь в небольших удобных домиках. 
Еще одно интересное место - пещера древнего человека. Археологи нашли здесь следы присутствия охотников времен мезолита, неолита, энеолита и бронзового века. 
Ангел Единой Надежды – скульптура, которая стоит на скале над рекой Сергой.
Её автор - талантливая художница из Швеции Лена Эдвалл. Такие скульптуры расположены по всему миру. Они дарят людям свет и надежду. Говорят, что если подержать Ангела за крылья, то он исполнит ваше желание.

Короткие истории. 2. Уникальный парк на Урале.

In many of the world's richer countries, young adults feel they can't afford to start a family. They also see the idea of buying a house as an impossible dream.

So, they're going on holiday instead!

And Elizabeth Currid-Halkett from the University of Southern California told CNN that young people are happy to take on some debt to go on a trip.

That's because it feels like a very small amount of debt compared to the cost of college or a house.

In fact, a May 2024 survey by US money website WalletHub found that two out of five Americans agree: they think it's worth going into debt to be able to have a good vacation.

Some call it "doom spending" — spending money on short-term pleasure, not saving it for something bigger in the future.

People point to the fact that house prices have increased much faster than wages, and so young adults today feel that saving for a home isn't realistic.

They feel the money would be better spent on a nice vacation.

There are also airlines that let customers book a flight but pay for it later, something that may appeal to these younger travelers.

However, experts say doom spending is a risky way to use your money, especially if it becomes a habit.

Money expert Louise Hill told Sky News that spending on short-term pleasure also makes it even harder to save for big things in life like a house or a family.

She said: "By the time you've saved enough for it, think about whether you still really want it."
