Tackling those tricky questions.



As we head towards end of year exams, graduations and possibly summer jobs - or maybe just jobs!  I thought this upcoming workshop at the City Business Library on the 29th April title 'Winning at Interviews' might be useful for some of you.

As you can see from the list there are lots of other sessions you also might find useful as well and all for the princely sum of £3 (plus train fare of course)!

You can find out how to get there here: http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/about-the-city/Documents/how-to-get-to-guildhall-map.pdf

Happy New Year! (Tax year that is)

Just to get you in the mood the BBC have compiled this short quiz:

I'm too embarrassed to tell you my score but see how you get on.

I'm Miley Surprised when reading the FT.

Well at first I  was going to show you this:http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-26865174

But then I saw this and if there was ever something I thought would never happen it would be finding Miley Cyrus on the front cover of the Financial Times (the online cover at least)! Yes you read that correctly - the FT has Miley Cyrus on their front page.  

Briefly summarising,  the young lady involved has a few concerts booked in a Helsinki venue owned by 3 Russians who appear on the recent US sanctions list; making it a little tricky to complete financial transactions between the concert organisers and venue.  

 If you have signed up to the FT website you can read it here: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/0a0dcbbe-ba6e-11e3-aeb0-00144feabdc0.html

Or the entire article will appear in our newspaper database, Newsbank, soon (there is a slight time delay). 

Or head on over to Level 1 of the library where we have the hard copy on our newstand.
