News writing doesn’t have to be boring! If a writer can’t learn to spice up the story with the right angle, readers will skip right past it - no matter how important the content.

Writing an interesting news piece isn’t hard. You just have to learn how to approach it in a more interesting manner. Readers need to know what happened at last night’s school board meeting, but is it necessary to bore them with a basic rundown of the agenda? Of course not! Even at the most mundane meeting, a good writer can find a unique angle or twist to highlight some aspect of what’s being discussed. Just stay away from sensationalizing and editorializing in order to create a story. It may seem that that’s what sells these days, but a true news journalist should always strive to get the story - the real story - and present it in a fair and factual manner.

Angles Are Everything:
What is an angle? It’s an articles selling tool. It’s what takes those boring who, what, where, when, and why facts of the story, and gives it a little extra pop! It’s a new twist on an old idea. That doesn’t mean that every story deserves (or can handle) an offbeat angle, but it does need to fresh and interesting.

While feature writing encouraging trying unique angles, using them in hard news can be a bit trickier. Solid news writing should be first and foremost factual, informative, and to the point. Readers need to know about that new “playground tax” discussed at the Board of Supervisors meeting, but, instead of presenting it as a sensationalistic piece on yet another burdening tax on local citizens, or a dry lowdown on how much this tax will cost homeowners, why not try a more interesting angle?

Find out why the Supervisors find it necessary to implement such an unusual tax. Visit the playgrounds in town and see their disrepair. Show your readers the safety concerns under question, and explain the cost of refurbishing the playgrounds in detail. Find out about communities that have closed their playgrounds. Did boredom cause an increase in vandalism? Offer some alternatives to the tax — like community fix-up days or corporation and church-sponsored fundraisers.

Another angle you might like to try: interview doctors at a local emergency room to the results of the head injuries and broken bones caused by under-maintained playgrounds in your area. Interview a young child and their parents who have suffered a debilitating injury from a playground accident. Give your readers a chance to see the importance of this tax. If you find there isn’t one after doing some research, than show that too! Prove your findings using lots of statistics and human interest.

How To Find The Right Angle:
Every story has at least a dozen angles. The writer’s job is to find one that fits your readership and publication’s style. Stuck for finding a way to make your next news story jump off the page? Try these tips for finding just the right angle:

-Observation is Everything. No matter what the subject, take the time to sit back and really observe what’s happening around you. Not only will you find an interesting angle, you just might find the story everyone else is missing. Are all the reporters covering the school board meeting as a whole? Take one interesting little tidbit from the meeting and run with it. Maybe the school superintendent won’t agree to attend the annual training seminar this summer he has for the past 20. Ask why? Maybe he’s planning a unique family vacation that week - or maybe he’s going to resign before the end of the school year and hasn’t announced it yet. Be on the lookout for strange or unusual behavior. It may lead you down a more interesting story path.

-Keep An Open Mind. Don’t overlook any possibility when looking for an article angle. After all, that messy eater you saw at the local community dinner may be all the inspiration you need to write an article on proper picnic etiquette.

-Write Down Everything. Keep meticulous notes. Don’t worry so much about gathering facts and statistics you can gather later. First, concentrate on gathering images and bits of conversations that will be lost and forgotten once the meeting or event is over. Those are the real gems to bring your article to life. Save them.

-Let Your Subject Captivate You. Really listen during an interview. Feel what your subject is feeling. Bring that personal aspect to your story. After all, if you can’t get excited about your subject matter, how can you expect your reader to?

What makes a good news writer? Most readers agree it’s the ability to find new ways to tell old stories. There will always be a new tax on the table, or a controversy in the courthouse. Learn to take those bland and ordinary facts and turn them into interesting articles readers will want to read.

When you claim to have certain skills, you simply mean that you do a certain thing very well. The best way to grab the most appropriate job for you is to recognize and understand your skills and communicate the same in a very effective manner, in both oral and written form, to prospective employers. In other words, you match your skills to suitable jobs in the job market.

A variety of jobs require a variety of skills. So, how do you match your skills to the job advertised for?

1. Identify Your Skills

People acquire a lot of skills in the course of their lives. These skills could be based on knowledge acquired or they could be acquired as volunteers, students, homemakers, or while engaged in myriad other activities. It is possible to match your skills to any desired job atmosphere.

You may not have any work experience; so, you may not have adapted any skill to any condition of work. The good news is that skills do not have to be tested and proved in a work atmosphere. In other words, you stand a very good chance in the job market even without job experience. Moreover, if you succeed in effectively communicating your skills, you could become the leading candidate for the post.

2. List Your Skills

First, separate aptitudes and interests from your work history. Your aptitudes and interests include the activities in which you have participated in the past, your hobbies, and anything and everything that interests you. First, make a list all these things, and then identify the skills that you required to achieve each of these items.

For example, your skills based on interests and aptitudes could be sports, repairing cars, keeping home, and many more. These skills indicate your ability to work in a team, multi-task, interact with others, handle mechanical and technical problems, and so on. The list is, of course, endless, but ensure that these skills are of use in a working environment.

Make a list of all your previous employments. This is your work history and includes all the jobs you have done as a volunteer, part-timer, freelancer, including all the summer jobs and full-time jobs you have held. Once you have completed your list, make a list of skills you required and acquired in the course of each job.

Now that your list of skills is ready, it is the time to seek the help of professional job services. Ask job agencies to help you find a job that matches your set of skills. However, you have to remember that you have to match your skills to the precise requirements of individual employers. A certain degree of customization is required when you apply for different jobs.

Most job seekers are terrified of the titles of jobs. There is nothing overwhelming about a job title. If your skills and cabilities match the needs of the company or your prospective employer, you stand a greater chance of getting that job.

There are a lot of myths going around about how you should choose your career - the sad part is that many of them are treated as fact. Let’s talk a little about five of those myths that can cause significant problems for you as you try to choose a career.

1. Someone Else Can Choose My Career

Sadly, many people make this mistake. They try to get career counselors or parents to choose a career for them. Although the people involved might know you well and know your talents, they can’t be relied on to make your choice. You should involve them and ask for their advice and opinions, but in the end, the decision is yours alone. Many people who follow this path spend the rest of their lives blaming someone else for a career they hate.

2. The Highest Paying Job is the Best For Me

Okay, I know that every year someone publishes a “Highest Paying Job” list, but that doesn’t mean you have to choose one of those jobs. If a career you would love happens to be on that list, that’s great! If it’s not, that’s okay too. When you’re stuck in a miserable job, the money really won’t matter all that much.

3. Hobbies and Jobs Don’t Mix

From personal experience, let me tell you, this is a LIE! You can do something you love. If your hobby is building model airplanes, and you know your area could use a store, you should open it. Why let someone else have the great job that you would love? Hobbies can easily turn into jobs, and you can have both a job and a hobby that you love.

4. A Career is Forever

Wrong answer! Most people have at least 8 careers during their lifetime, and that’s normal! You don’t have to do the same thing for the rest of your life. You can decide to do one thing now, and in ten years, change your mind. Choose a career that you want to do now and that you might like later. If it turns out you get tired of it, you can go back to school and enter a new career. Or you can open your own business in the same field. A career choice is never forever. Even if you get half way through school, you can still change your mind. I did, and I even graduated a semester early in the process.

5. Working in the Field Will Tell Me Whether I Like It

While this is somewhat true, it lacks a very important consideration - you can learn about a career and even experience it to some extent before entering the field. You can always call and shadow a current professional in the field; they really don’t mind. You can get a summer job working in the field or around the field. Maybe you want to be a nurse, then you should volunteer in the hospital. You’ll learn a lot from that experience about whether or not you want to be a nurse.

Debunking the myths helps you for one reason - it allows you to realize when you’re giving in to these ways of thinking. Follow your heart and be practical at the same time, and you can figure out a job that you’ll love, at least for a while. Know that you can always get some hands-on experience before making your choice and it’s okay to change your mind later.

Before you rush out to find that perfect job or internship, you’ll need to write your resume. And not just any resume, but the kind that will separate you from all the people applying to your college of choice or eager to land with that dream job of yours. Here are some ways to avoid the pitfalls of resume writing and land your self in the spot light.

However, one thing to be kept in mind is that, resume to be prepared by a high school student is different from the one prepared by a professional. Hence, you need to focus mainly on the given points while preparing your resume.

1. Focus on Relevant Information:

A lot of students think a generalized resume describing everything they’ve ever done is a great way to get any kind of job or internship. Not true. The first rule of thumb for resume-writing is to only include information that is useful to the job you’re applying for.

If you’re applying for summer jobs or internships in a variety of fields, be prepared to write more than one resume. Once you have the first done, use it as a template and just cut and paste the most relevant information for different jobs.

2. Enlist your hobbies and interests:

It is very necessary for you to enlist your interests and hobbies that you indulge in. No matter where you’re applying or what you plan to study in college, potential employers want to know you’re a well-rounded member of society. Listing your participation in a program, such as Habitat for Humanity, or your weekly work at a local soup kitchen can definitely add some pizzazz to a resume short of work experience. It’s also an added bonus for younger high school students to list any associations they’ve belonged to.

3. Highlighting special skills:

Let’s face it, technology is everywhere. Knowledge of computers will most likely be a requirement for just about any job. List any and all experience you have with computers, naming the actual program names you’re familiar with (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Photoshop). Next is your language proficiency. The world is getting smaller and smaller, especially in the job market. Knowing a second or third language can put you at an advantage in qualifying for a job and will certainly separate you from other candidates.

Be sure to describe your roles and accomplishments with strong action words and key terms that will pop out at employers, usually ones that signify leadership and team roles you’ve had. These include words such as: team work, team player, and multi-tasking, executed, organized, performed, maintained, supervised, managed, directed, developed, and implemented.

After getting all this done, make sure you have organized them in the proper order and the facts revealed are true. Being truthful about your qualifications and experience would help the employer make a good impression on you and thus gives you more chances of success in this extremely competitive world.
