Employment Forms When conducting a job search, it is important to be aware of the forms that employers may require so you are prepared to interview, prepared to be hired, and ready to start a new job. The last thing you need is a glitch and missing documentation that could stall the hiring process. I know paperwork is boring, but, if you take a few minutes to get the employment forms you need in order, you won't have to stress over them at the last minute. Sunday January 23, 2005#

Job Search Tax Deductions It's the time of year most of us dread - time to start thinking about calculating your income tax and settling up with the IRS and with your state department of taxation. The good news is that many job search expenses are deductible. If you've been looking for a job in the same line of work you're currently in, many of your expenses like phone calls, the costs of preparing and copying your resume, and career counseling are deductible.

Summer Jobs and Internships I've been asked several times this week about whether it's too late to start looking for a summer job or internship. It's definitely not too late. It actually might be a little early since employers don't always know their hiring needs this far in advance. However, it's never to soon to starting reviewing summer job and internship listings and to start planning a summer job search. Tuesday January 18, 2005#

W-2 Forms It's the time of year when employers start sending out W-2 Forms with earnings information from last year. After filing your tax return, make sure you keep your W2 copies in a safe place in case an employer requests them to verify income. Is it appropriate for an employer to request a copy of your W2 form? That depends on when and why they are asking. Saturday January 15, 2005#
