Employee Name Job Title Start Date Supervisor Preparation: Fill & Download for Free

Worried about bad references and future job interviews.Unless you are independently wealthy and do not need employment for shelter and sustenance, future nterviews are inevitable.If by bad references you mean that your former employer (s) would provide input on poor performance and you are worried that those comments would end chances for another position, because today’s society is so litigious very few employers are still providing references, good or bad. Employers now usually only provide name, dates of employment and job title.What is very important for your future is what issues caused the likelihood of bad references. If those issues were within your control, bad references will be the least of your problems because unless you can change your behavior those same issues will occur again and again and counting on former employers not to share their experience/opinion becomes more and more risky.Having said that, if an employer, say a financial institution or a govt. agency is involved, they use background checks by third parties. Those third parties will often go to (or call into) former employers and ask employees as well as supervisors for their opinions.While I wouldn’t suggest that any job candidate volunteer derogatory information about themselves or lie, I would say--- Be prepared with a plausible (to your best advantage) answer if you are asked why you left your last employer and it should track with what might be said by a former employer.Post Script---My advice to the management of my former employers was always that no one within the organization provide a verbal or written reference or discuss any current or former employee with an outside party. All such inquiries were to be directed to HR. I also always insisted that corrective action and documentation be comprehensive and encouraged being contacted at the start of any problems. However, when inquiries for positions that required clearances (Top Secret etc.) or bonding, we did provide only objective and well documented input on performance.

Starting a business entails understanding and dealing with many issues legal, financing, sales and marketing, intellectual property protection, liability protection, human resources, and more. But interest in entrepreneurship is at an all time high.Understand the Commitment and Challenges Involved in Starting a Business:· Coming up with a great and unique product or service· Having a strong plan and vision for the business· Having sufficient capital and cash flow· Finding great employees· Firing bad employees quickly in a way that doesn’t result in legal liability· Working more than you expected· Not getting discouraged by rejections from customers· Managing your time efficiently· Maintaining a reasonable work/life balance· Knowing when to pivot your strategy· Maintaining the stamina to keep going even when it’s toughProtect Your Personal Assets by Forming the Business as a Corporation or LLC:· Always use the corporate name· Always use proper signature· Follow all corporate formalities· Make sure to keep funds separate· Make sure to keep taxation separate· All transactions made by the corporation should be clearly separate from any individual transactions.Come Up With a Great Name for Your Business· Avoid hard-to-spell names.· Don’t pick a name that could be limiting as your business grows.· Conduct a thorough Internet search on a proposed name.· Get a “.com” domain name (as opposed to “.net” or another variant).· Conduct a thorough trademark search.· Make sure you and your employees will be happy saying the name.· Come up with five names you like and test market the name with prospective employees, partners, investors, and potential customers.Focus on Building a Great Product—But Don’t Take Forever to LaunchWhen starting out, your product or service has to be at least good if not great. It must be differentiated in some meaningful and important way from the offerings of your competition‎.Everything else follows from this key principle. Don’t drag your feet on getting your product out to market, since early customer feedback is one of the best ways to help improve your product.Of course, you want a “minimum viable product” (MVP) to begin with, but even that product should be good and differentiated from the competition.Build a Great Website for Your Company· Check out competitor sites.· Start by sketching out a template for your site.· Come up with five or six sites you can share with your web site developer to convey what you like.· Be sure the site is search engine optimized (and thus more likely to show up early on Google search results).· Produce high-quality original content.· Make sure your site is optimized for mobile devices.· Make sure the site loads quickly.· Keep it clean and simple; visual clutter will drive visitors away.· Make sure you have a Terms of Use Agreement and Privacy Policy (and comply with the European GDPR rules).· Make the navigation bars prominent.· Obtain and use a memorable “.com” domain name.· Make the site visually interesting.· Make sure it’s easy for site visitors to contact you or buy your product.Perfect Your Elevator Pitch· Start out strong.· Be positive and enthusiastic in your delivery.· Remember that practice makes perfect.· Keep it to 60 seconds in length.· Avoid using industry jargon.· Convey why your business is unique.· Pitch the problem you are solving.· Invite participation or interruption by the listener—this shows they are interested and engaged.Make the Deal Clear With Co-Founders· How is the equity split among the founders?· Is the percentage of ownership subject to vesting based on continued participation in the business?· What are the roles and responsibilities of the founders?· If one founder leaves, does the company or the other founder have the right to buy back that founder’s shares? At what price?· How much time commitment to the business is expected of each founder?· What salaries (if any) are the founders entitled to? How can that be changed?· How are key decisions and day-to-day decisions of the business to be made? (by majority vote, unanimous vote, or are certain decisions solely in the hands of the CEO?)· Under what circumstances can a founder be removed as an employee of the business? (usually, this would be a Board decision)· What assets or cash does each founder contribute or invest into the business?· How will a sale of the business be decided?· What happens if one founder isn’t living up to expectations under the founder agreement? How will it be resolved?· What is the overall goal and vision for the business?· If one founder wants to leave the business, does the company have the right to buy back his or her shares? At what price?Obtain a Tax IDIn most instances, you will need to get a tax ID from the IRS for your company. This is also known as an “Employer Identification Number” (EIN), and it’s similar to a Social Security number, but for businesses. Banks will ask for your EIN when you open a company bank account. You can get an EIN online through the IRS website.Set Up a Good Accounting and Bookkeeping SystemYou will need to set up a bookkeeping/accounting system to keep track of your finances, income, expenses, capital expenditures, EBITDA, profit and loss, etc. This is important in order to understand your business’s cash flow situation and also for tax-filing purposes.Perform a Comprehensive Reference Check Before You Hire an Employee· Verification of job titles and dates of employment· Verification of educational degrees and dates of attendance at schools· Verification of starting and ending salary· Verification of prior job role and responsibilities· Inquiry as to why the applicant left the prior employer· Conversations with prior supervisors as to the applicant’s strengths and weaknesses· Inquiry as to the applicant’s ability to get along well with other employees and customers· Inquiry as to the applicant’s ability to take on the new role· Inquiry as to punctuality or absenteeism issues· Reference checks with other people not listed by the applicant as a referenceUse a Good Form of Employee Offer Letter or Employment Agreement· The job title and role of the employee· Whether the job is full time or part time· When the job will commence· The salary, benefits, and any potential bonuses· Whether the position is “at will” employment, meaning either party is free to terminate the relationship at any time without penalty (although employers may not terminate employees for legally prohibited reasons, such as for age discrimination or retaliation from sexual harassment allegations, etc.)· Confirmation that the “at will” agreement may not be changed unless signed by an authorized officer of the company· Confirmation that the employee will need to sign a separate Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement (described below)· If the company chooses, a statement that any disputes between the parties will be resolved solely and exclusively by confidential binding arbitration (also discussed below)· Any stock options to be granted to the employee and the terms of any vesting (details usually laid out in a separate Stock Option Agreement)· The supervisor to whom the employee will report· Protective language stating that the offer letter constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the employment relationship, and that there are no other agreements or benefits expected.Make Sure All Employees Sign a Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement·The employee may not use or disclose any of the company’s confidential information for their own benefit or use, or for the benefit of others, without authorization.· The employee must promptly disclose to the company any inventions, ideas, discoveries, and work product related to the company’s business that they make during the period of employment.· The company is the owner of such inventions, ideas, discoveries, and work product, which the employee must assign to the company.· The employee’s employment with the company does not and will not breach any agreement or duty that the employee has with anyone else, nor may the employee disclose to the company or use on its behalf any confidential information belonging to others.· Upon termination of employment, the employee must return any and all confidential information and company property.· While employed, the employee will not compete with the company or perform any services for any competitor of the company.· The employee’s confidentiality and invention assignment obligations under the agreement will continue after termination of employment.· The agreement does not by itself represent any guarantee of continued employment.Consider the Steps You Should Take to Protect Your Intellectual Property· Patents· Copyrights· Trademarks· Service Marks· Trade Secrets· Confidentiality Agreements· Confidentiality Agreement for Employees and Consultants· Terms of Service and Privacy PolicyBecome a Strong SalespersonIf the business is to become successful, you must become a great salesperson. You are going to have to learn how to “sell” your business not only to customers but also to prospective investors and even to potential employees.Understand Financial Statements and Budgets· What are the company’s three-year projections?· What are the key assumptions underlying your projections?· How much equity and debt has the company raised, and what is the capitalization structure?· What future equity or debt financing will be necessary?· How much of a stock option pool is being set aside for employees?· When will the company get to profitability?· How much “burn” (losses) will occur until the company gets to profitability?· What are your unit economics?· What are the factors that limit faster growth?· What are the key metrics that the management team focuses on?Market Your Business Like Crazy· Learn the fundamentals of SEO (search engine optimization) so that people searching for your products and services online might find you near the top of search results.· Use social media to promote your business (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc.).· Engage in content marketing by writing guest articles for relevant websites.· Issue press releases for any significant events.· Network continually.Use Consultants and Freelancers to Supplement Your TeamAt the early stages of your startup, you will likely want to have a small employee team to minimize expenses. A good way to fill in for specialized expertise is to use freelancers or consultants.That way, you avoid taking on employee costs and benefits payments. And there are a variety of sites that can help you access freelancers, such as Freelancer.com, Guru.com, and Upwork.com.Have a Great Investor Pitch DeckPitch Deck Do’s· Do include this wording at the bottom left of the pitch deck cover page: “Confidential and Proprietary. Copyright by [Name of Company]. [Year]. All Rights Reserved.”· Do convince the viewer of why the market opportunity is large.· Do include visually interesting graphics and images.· Do send the pitch deck in a PDF format to prospective investors in advance of a meeting. Don’t force the investor to get it from Google Docs, Dropbox, or some other online service, as you are just putting up a barrier to the investor actually reading it.· Do plan to have a demo of your product as part of the in-person presentation.· Do tell a compelling, memorable, and interesting story that shows your passion for the business.· Do show that you have more than just an idea, and that you have gotten early traction on developing the product, getting customers, or signing up partners.· Do have a soundbite for investors to remember you by.· Do use a consistent font size, color, and header title style throughout the slides.Pitch Deck Don’ts· Don’t make the pitch deck more than 15-20 slides long (investors have limited attention spans). If you feel you need to add more information, include it as an appendix.· Don’t have too many wordy slides.· Don’t provide excessive financial details, as that can be provided in a follow-up message.· Don’t try to cover everything in the pitch deck slides. Your in-person presentation will give you an opportunity to add and highlight key information.· Don’t use a lot of jargon or acronyms that the investor may not immediately understand.· Don’t underestimate or belittle the competition (and never say “we don’t have any competition”).· Don’t have your pitch deck look out of date. You don’t want a date on the cover page that is several months old (that is why I avoid putting a date on the cover page at all). And you don’t want information or metrics in the deck about your business that look stale or outdated.· Don’t have a poor layout, bad graphics, or a low-quality “look and feel.” Think about hiring a graphic designer to give your pitch desk a more professional look.Drive Traffic to Your Website· Pay Google, Bing, Yahoo, or other search engines to send you traffic (such as through the Google Adwords program).· Build a great site with lots of high-quality, original content that is search engine optimized.· Have a smart social media plan to drive traffic from Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other free social media sites.· Get links to your site from high-quality sites.Make Sure Someone Hasn’t Already Invented Your Great New Idea· Do a Google search on the keywords associated with your invention.· Do a search online of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office at United States Patent and Trademark Office.· If nothing comes up and you want to get a patent for your idea, hire a patent lawyer.Don’t Go Overboard on a Business PlanIt’s useful to come up with a business plan to think through what you want to do for the development of the product or service, marketing, financial projections, and more. And you should then get input from trusted business and finance advisors. But don’t go overboard with a 50-page business plan.Secure Capital to Finance Your Business· Personal funds· Credit cards· Friends and family· Angel investors (see Angel Investing: 20 Things

cents per share (the fair market value of a share of XYZ common stock at the time of grant).· The options are subject to a four-year vesting period with one-year cliff vesting, which means that John

The salary of mailmen isn’t as much as you would think. It hasn’t gone up much in 20 years. I used to be a postal clerk 20 years ago and topped out at $18/hr, even at a higher level pay than when I started at level 4. I was a level 6.Mailmen earn around $17-$18/hr to start (information obtained from Job Search | Indeed , a website that lists jobs currently available). See below for a script of that job offer. The person who commented on $32/hr is not accurate. The post office likes to add in benefits, like sick leave, annual leave, health insurance and retirement to the pay/per/hour, making it seems much higher. There is no other company that does this when calculating the pay/per/hour. I think they do this because otherwise they have trouble obtaining employees and retaining them for a variety of reasons (long story). Here is another website where I obtained information on hourly pay: Postal Service Mail Carrier Hourly Pay in Phoenix, Arizona This validates my information.There isn’t much increase in pay after you’ve reached the top of your level in about 2 years. After that. it’s the measly amount that cost of living provides. It is less than the average teacher makes, which is roughly $27/hr. Because mailmen or woman don’t work on Sunday, the also don’t get Sunday premium, and they also don’t get overtime, except maybe at Xmas holidays. There may be times when they work an ‘off day,’ to fill in for an absent carrier, so that would be overtime. But, as a general rule, it is a day job with no overtime and no Sundays, therefore, no Sunday premium. It is rare that the postal office allows overtime for carriers. For clerks and mail handlers overtime is the normal.I wish these postings by the USPS would make their sentences uniform and justified at the margins of left/right. I copied the job ad just like it was on the INDEED website. Peoria, AZ is within a close proximity of the Phoenix, AZ area.CITY CARRIER ASSISTANTUnited States Postal ServicePeoria, AZ 85381Part-timeUnited States Postal ServiceExternal Publication for Job Posting 10432641If this job requires qualification on an examination, the number of applicants who will be invited to take or retake theexamination may be limited.BranchArizona DistrictJob Posting Period05/30/2020 - 06/02/2020This job has an exam requirement.
