    Happy New Year from JobsPeopleDo.com!

    Welcome to a brand new year!

    If you’re like many people, you’re probably thinking about what sort of resolutions you would like to make for 2015. Maybe you want to get higher grades, save more money or get organized. Whatever you resolve to do, set small, achievable goals for yourself. As you cross each one off of your list, you will feel a great sense of accomplishment and you will find that it will motivate you to keep going.

    This month, we have some tips for you on how to get higher grades this year, how to deal when you DON’T get the grade you want and, of course, scholarships and bursaries to help you reach your educational dreams.

    If you haven’t yet, check out our brand new Community Living page. It’s full of great information and resources for students with disabilities who are ready to make the transition from high school to university, or who are looking to enter the workforce for the first time.

    This year, we’ll be adding more videos and job profiles than ever before. We’re excited to help you as you get ready to conquer your exams and find the career path of your dreams!

    Happy 2015!

    Happy New Year from JobsPeopleDo.com!

    2014 is officially upon us, and with it comes a new set of goals and responsibilities. If you’re graduating from high school this year, you’re probably already counting down the days until you’re finished. With the excitement of graduation bearing down on you, don’t forget to take some time to plan for your future, too. High school will be over, but many of you will also be entering college and university in the fall. That means you’ll want to get your scholarship and bursary applications in soon – it’s never too early (or too late) to get free money for your education.

    Have you made any resolutions for the new year? Sometimes the changing of the calendar also brings with it a changing of your mindset – it feels like a fresh start. Take advantage of this feeling by setting some goals for yourself. It could be as simple as, “I want to spend one hour per night studying”. Making your resolutions into smaller, bite-sized goals will increase your chances of succeeding. Good luck!

    This year is bound to be a big one for JobsPeopleDo.com. We have lots of fun and surprises in store for you, so keep checking back every month. We always want to hear from you, so let us know what you want to see on the site. Remember, JobsPeopleDo.com is YOUR website!

    From all of us, we would like to wish you a happy and productive 2014!
