Cynopsis: Classified Advantage 12.21.10 Good morning – it’s Tuesday, December 21, 2010, and this is your weekly issue of Cyn opsis: Classified Advantage! This marks the last edition of the year for Classified Advantage – we’ll be back on Tuesday, January 4, 2011. Intelligence and Personality Tests The purpose of both tests are to compare you with the company’s idea of a “perfect” employee. It is important to note that you are being compared with an ideal, and not an actual person. While no test is perfect, most companies use tests with proven reliability and validity. Reliability meaning, the test works the same way each time it’s given; validity meaning it tests what it purports to test. It is against the law to be asked about disabilities that you may or may not have. Questions about your private life, such as sexual preferences, religion or ethnic background are inappropriate but not always illegal. However, most companies stay away from these types of questions to avoid possible if not probable, legal problems. The Personality Test These tests are multi-layered, asking the same question in very different ways. This is called a lie scale, built in, to determine who is telling the truth about themselves versus who is merely trying to impress the company with their responses. These test are often long and somewhat frustrating because the options given may not be your first choice. This is on purpose, again to weed out the impostors. Choose the best option, though it may not reflect what you would actually do given more choices. Perhaps the best advice for a personality test is to believe it is both reliable and valid, and answer the questions as honestly as you can. Trying to guess what the company wants to hear versus your own beliefs will most likely result in a poor score. Understanding that the test is meant to be difficult and frustrating, may lessen the stress. Intelligence Tests Most employers will not use just intelligence tests alone, because there are questions about the validity of intelligence tests – similar to the questions about standard IQ tests and SATs. In an attempt to make these tests more valid, intelligence tests are usually combined with other types of tests, to create a more accurate assessment of any applicant. Taking practice tests online may help, not so much in gained information, but rather in the manner of these tests. Logic problems, word problems and pattern identification are not entities that can be studied for the night before. Some believe practice provides only comfort in working with the problems, but not necessarily added insight in solving the problems. (Remember that SAT class you took in high school? Same idea here.) The best advice for intelligence tests may be to acknowledge there is no short term way to decidedly improve your score, so relax, believe in yourself, and again, avoid the stress.

Merry Christmas | Happy Holidays | Happy New Year
Cyn opsis Media will be off the week of December 27 – 31, 2010.Don’t forget to read the 2010 Year in Review on January 1st 2011! Past e-publications, classifieds & industry calendar of events can always be found on our website. Having a goal is critical to your career. Not just the short termism of getting through today’s to-do list or the default goal of not getting fired. But the longer term vision of where you would like to find yourself in five years or so. Would you like to be working for yourself? Would you like to be traveling the world? Would you like to own the company you work for? Would you like to have your boss’s job? If you have a long list of dreams and are confused, I recommend using the prioritizer: http://tinyurl.com/rx2o7 to help you see which ones rise to the top. Once you have settled on something, then every day think about what you can do in the next 24 hours to advance towards your chosen goal. If travel is your dream, be investigating which overseas offices or clients. If promotion is your goal then figure out who is in charge of that decision and what you think they might be looking for in their next upgrade. If a career change is on your mind, then do the research, learn about the new business, build your network, polish your chops, get the qualification to get you moving in the right direction. Clarity about your goal will make many things easier for you. When you are faced with more than one option, you have a basis for deciding: by considering which one moves you further in the direction you want to go. Having a goal will help you from the moment you get up in the morning to decide what is important and which choice to make. If you have a job that isn’t challenging you, challenge yourself. Even if your client or boss is not demanding, you can surely come up with some spin on your work that will make it more relevant to where your interests lie and move you closer to your goal. Pick challenges that will make you smarter, more marketable, more relevantly experienced. All with an eye on where you want to get to. So here is the actionable part of this column where I ask you to write down your goal. Your “What-do-I-want-to-be-doing-in-five-years” goal. Yes, write it down. Interesting how it changes and focuses itself when you aren’t just holding it somewhere in the back of your mind, where it never quite formed into anything beyond “I want to be happy and in charge of my destiny”. And don’t panic, it can change don’t feel you are going to be trapped by it. If you are always working towards your goal, then you will find satisfaction and maintain your drive. If you are just trying to stay afloat each day, then that is the best you can hope for. Get yourself a goal and work yourself towards it. It is fun, productive and so very much more satisfying than drifting. Michael Pollock is President of Pollock Spark ( www.pollockspark.com ).

If you have any specific questions you’d like our Experts to address, please email them to me, John Cox at [email protected]. I have spent the last decade working in non-profit media, primarily in television. Hoping to make the leap into commercial media, I completed my MBA in Media Management, to be sure I had the requisite knowledge of for-profit business fundamentals in my chosen industry. Though I see lots of former for-profit executives being hired in the non-profit sector, it doesn’t seem to flow the other direction. I have applied for countless media-related openings over the last two years, but I have yet to be invited to interview, usually hearing my “skillset isn’t a match.” To confirm, yes, I do relate my qualifications to the job requirements in both the cover and resume. What course of action do you recommend for pursuing leaps like this? Are there ways to improve the chances of getting noticed, aside from networking? What “fears” may be in the minds of the recruiters when seeing this kind of applicant? My suspicion is that you are over-emphasizing at least to yourself the non-profit part of your background. What if the first sentence of your question dropped the word non-profit? It would still be true and would reframe your thinking. Focus on the media and television part of what you have done, the programming or production or whatever is your area, and think of it in terms of its relevance to the job you are applying for regardless of the business’s taxation status. Your experience and skills need to stand on their own merit whether you were at PBS or CBS. Did you make great television? Did you identify amazing new talent? Did you get impressive corporate sponsorships? Put your effort into presenting these credits. If non-profits are hiring executives from the for-profit sector, then this suggests that the skill-sets needed are the same. So make the case that not only do you have what they need but you also bring the added benefits of the MBA. There seems to be unwritten rules at my office, like leaving early on Fridays and wearing very casual clothes, also on Fridays. I’m fairly new here and have resisted following others in these pursuits because I have yet to see any written information on it. When I did ask if this was actual company policy, I got a somewhat flippant, of course! Should I do what most of the other department is doing even though they seem to be the only ones, or do I remain the lone stick in the mud, become the outsider within my own department and actually work on Fridays past lunch? As to dress, I would wear what makes you feel comfortable. If you are most comfortable wearing a yellow checked suit and an ascot – then why not! If by not dressing like the others you are feeling the outsider, then go ahead and join in. As to working after lunch, I would ask yourself what it takes to excel at your job and gain advancement. Whereas your choice of clothes is not necessarily going to help your work or your recognition (unless you work in the fashion business), doing a better-than-expected job is just the way you do want to stand out. And if that entails working past lunch on Friday then do it and build yourself an awesome career. Michael Pollock is President of Pollock Spark ( www.pollockspark.com ).
