Before attending any "career development workshop," make sure the
following questions are answered: What work is available? What is the job/work description? Is this the genuine, standard job/work description? How is performance measured? What is expected of you? How long do you need this product or service? Who from the state has circulated this requirement? What are the essential departments in every state? All people do not need to work at the same time on-site, in the field, or other locations. Who provided this requirement? How was the requirement calculated? Is this work going to enhance essential ingredients of the economy? Is this work possible over the Internet? Is this work been provided already over the Internet? If this work already has been provided over the Internet, only work credits and remuneration is required. What is the remuneration? What kind of education and training are you offering beyond that which is available at www.qureshiuniversity.com or http://www.globe.bz/? How have educational programs been organized?

What statements, questions, and advertising banners are circulated to lure individuals with intent to harm or without any proper service?
Career development workshop. Job readiness training. Do you need a job? We can help! What have been various findings of these activities? They do not really help. They may have intent to harm. Ask relevant questions before attending any job/work counseling. Why is a job/work description essential? An advertisement does not provide a job description; actually, they were getting remuneration from the system without helping people. An advertisement that provided a job description behind the scenes was actually exploitation of women and a criminal conspiracy. All questions were not answered by the advertiser. Here are various guidelines. |

You need to identify essential and non-essential ingredients of the economy.
Those who have been involved in non-essential ingredients of the economy
should be redirected to properly enhance essential ingredients of economy. Those involved in harms should be punished. If there are no products and services, what will people consume? A worker may be unfairly getting credits or remuneration for work; thus, practically, he or she may not enhance essential ingredients of economy. Those who cannot work should say so. The focus should be on quality products and services. These should be distributed fairly. Those who can work should declare their skills and knowledge, products and services. Is this the genuine, standard job/work description? Is a first job/work description an essential or useless professional examination? A first job/work description is essential. What is the job/work description? The answer to this question is essential. Hundreds of individuals were asked to appear for an irrelevant assessment examination by one resource. There was no job/work description available. These assessment examinations are a futile exercise. What is the proof of your competence? Always show abilities, skills, and knowledge relevant to specific profession or professions in the real world, particularly through advertising or media. You should be able to answer questions correctly. The same should be displayed publicly. Don't show license number, accreditation, and membership, but real world experience. Quacks in America and outside America with license number, accreditation, and membership.They don't have correct answers to basic questions with regard to their work. If anyone is getting comparatively more remuneration, they should know they do not deserve it. If anyone is offering free essential services, you should know they get a quota and grants from the system. A company shows serving products and services to banks or hotels. None of them is an essential ingredient of economy. Do you know the difference between economy and budget? Do those managing the state and associates know the difference between the economy and budget? Do they have answers to relevant questions of good character, good behavior, rights, and competence? If those managing the state and his or her associates do not have correct answers to these questions, you need to replace them with good charactered, well behaved, competent people who have correct answers to these questions. I came across a competitive examination controversy. There are tailored procedures to oust specific individuals, even those who are fully competent. I can create dozens of competitive examinations and others can create dozens of competitive examinations, in various formats, ranging from multiple choice questions to other formats. This is a futile exercise. You need to answer these questions precisely. What are the essential ingredients of an economy? What is economy? What is budget? How do you define state economy? How do you define a state budget? What is the Essential Commodities Act? What is the Essential Services Maintenance Act? What is the Fair Housing Act? What are the essential ingredients of an economy? Take a look at this Particularly for Women. Job allurements, conspiracies, tricks, traps, offers, administration, organizations and companies. Any advertisement of job opening or work order. Make sure the following questions are answered before you proceed. Make sure the following details accompany the advertisement. There are lots of Mafia-driven activities within America. Q: What is expected of you? Q: How is performance measured? Make sure this is posted with advertisement. Q: Where else has the advertisement been posted? Q: Who among the regulators are involved? Q: How many have been appointed from the same vicinity and ethnicity? Q: Who is the head of the regulatory organization? Q: Who was the previous head of the regulatory organization? Q: What did you understand? |
