PostHeaderIcon Career Change Resumes – Tips To Create An Impressive One

You need to consider various aspects of your past working experience to write a career change orientated resume. Rules are same for writing the resume for career change, irrespective of the fact
focus is on your choice or due to redundancy.

Your resume for career change orientation should focus on the skills of the worker that he or she has acquired over their working experience and that could be useful for the new job. For example, If you were a plumber and is choosing your new profession as a tradesman then your skills would be beneficial in your new job. Skills acquired and mastered by a plumber such as handling receipts, dealing with suppliers and keeping accounts would be beneficial for a tradesman in his or her retail industry. However this may not be that important in the labor intensive industry. Such skills play a vital role in the design of resume for your career change.

In this case the resume for career change of a plumber with his skills would demonstrate how well he or she would be able to handle the administrative tasks in trade. For the job of teaching, plumber’s skills such as previous training of apprentices, people skills, communication and career change format would prove to be beneficial.

If you are a worker who is looking for a profession in teaching then the most appropriate skill for you would be training apprentice. If you have the ability to pass on knowledge and share skills, then you are the perfect candidate for teaching job. Moreover, if you have some hands on experience or list of courses then it would be easy to impress prospective employers.

There are common skills required in every job. So, if you are writing a resume that is career change minded to migrate from outdoor lifestyle to any less physical career, even then you can figure out some common skills required for the job. For example, if you are a tour operator and had been doing all the jobs such as keeping accounts, books and receipts, has good communication skills, people skills, teamwork, independent work efficiency, being responsible, understanding safety, first aid training etc. then all these skills are required in retail or data entry jobs also. Although these may don’t have relevance at first glance but in a career change orientated resume it becomes very important.

Always look beyond the basic skills of your past trade or job while designing the career change format resume. You must figure out the relevant skills in both the jobs and analyze your expertise in those skills. Everyday work experience is the best proof of accomplishment for any job or skill. This would lead you to get the job of your dreams easily.

PostHeaderIcon The Basics of Good Bathroom Design

To a plumber, the difference between one bathroom and another is a matter of degrees; some baths are bigger, some have more fixtures, but in the end, everything flows downhill. Get the fresh water in, get the wastewater out ? mission accomplished.

But planning a bathroom is much more than just connecting the pipes. There are many possible configurations and types of baths and a large number of finishes and fixtures to select. And it?s one of the most expensive rooms in the house.

We all know what a bathroom is used for ? that hasn?t changed ? but baths today are designed for specific users. In today?s homes the ?masters? of the house usually have a private luxury bath, and their children often have baths of their own. Another bath may be set aside for guest use, and if the home has a lower-level recreation room, there will probably be a conveniently located bath to go with it too.

The Muck Stops Here

You probably didn?t? grow up in a house with a utility bath but your mom wishes you did – it?s the bath that comes between the muddy kids and mom?s nice, clean floors and gives dad a place to wash his golf clubs (other than in the kitchen sink). Ideally, the utility bath is part of a family entry/mud room area, probably between the garage and the kitchen. It?s also often combined with the laundry room ? the basin can do double duty as a washtub. A toilet and a basin are the only necessary fixtures; add a small shower if you?re a frequent gardener or if your kids often find their way to the creek in the backyard.

Two Kids, One Pail Of Water

Upstairs baths come in a wide variety of configurations. The basic ?hall bath? has a sink, toilet, and tub and is accessed by two or more bedrooms through a common hallway. A hall bath can be as small as 5 feet wide by 8 feet long.

But because the hall bath has all of the fixtures in one room, only one person can use it at a time. A better solution is the compartmentalized bath ? a slightly larger version of the hall bath that places one or two basins in a separate room from the toilet and tub. Now one teenager can use the tub or toilet in privacy while another uses the basin. It?s a far more family-friendly arrangement and doesn?t take up much more space.

Separate baths for each bedroom are the ultimate in convenience and privacy, but nearly as good is the ?Jack-and-Jill? bath. Young Jack and young Jill share a common tub and toilet, but each has a private basin, countertop, storage drawers, and mirror. Usually that basin is accessible directly from the bedroom and provides a private dressing and grooming area for each child. It?s a great way to keep teenagers from fighting over the basin and countertop space without the expense of two separate baths.

Domain of the Master

The big whirlpool bathtub was the centerpiece of the luxury ?master bath? just a few years ago, but in many designs its? prominent place is challenged by the luxury shower. In fact, we?ve recently been asked to design several new homes with a big shower but no tub at all in the master bath. It?s a bit unusual, but why install a tub you?ll never use?

The large showers we?re designing in homes today are hard to beat for relaxation. Most have multiple showerheads and body-spray fixtures; all have large built-in bench seats. A few have steam units and built-in media centers.

The greatest luxuries in these baths are privacy and personal space, so every luxury bath has a separate basin and countertop space for each of the owners. They?re occasionally side-by-side but often they?re completely separated from each other. Every luxury bath must also have a private toilet room ? an absolutely essential feature if more than one person is to use the bath simultaneously.

American Standards

It wasn?t long ago that the average American home had no more than two baths ? one upstairs and one down ? but as the size of homes has grown, so has the number and complexity of baths. It?s not uncommon today to find four or five baths in a home, each one dedicated to a specific occupant or specific use. Careful consideration of who?s using which bath will help to make your home more convenient and comfortable for everyone in it. Even the plumber.

I have over 20 years? experience in the field of architecture and have designed homes and buildings across the country.


I see my work as much more than just designing homes – I see residential architecture as an expression of a social art; an art with a strong responsibility to culture and environment, expressed in its enrichment of family life and by its contribution to community.


I truly love my work, and look forward to sharing the excitement of the custom design process with you.
