It's critical to keep current.
2008-12-05 byWe all know the importance of keeping current on trends in our own industry. But the well-rounded individual – someone who has the confidence to speak about subjects outside of their comfort zone – is the one who stands out in an interview.
What arena do I recommend job seekers devote themselves? Technology. It’s the easiest way to keep abreast of what’s happening as it relates to your industry and to the world at large. Change your homepage. KurzweilAI.net offers current events and breaking news in the technology arena, while ARS Technica puts cutting edge information on technological trends and capabilities in front of you daily. Taking 20–30 minutes to read one or two articles from either site is all that’s needed to begin to give you facility with the subject matter.
