Resume Revolution Webinar
by Phil Rosenberg

Tuesday night, 1/24/12 
Thursday, 1/26/12 

When there are job shortages, there are plenty of candidates who meet the basic 
employer needs - so it takes more than skills to win. 

The candidates who win jobs have 2 things in common: 

1) They have better information than their competitors 
2) They understand the employers' hiring processes (both formal and informal) 
   better than their competitors 

Why let others beat you in the job market, when you can learn how to get your resume seen more often, get more interviews, and beat the job market in 2012?

ANALYSES AND REPORTS




The percentage of Polish entrepreneurs who plan to increase the employment is still higher then of those expecting reductions. The majority of companies expects no change in the level of employment.
Of the 750 Polish employers surveyed 14 percent expect to add to their workforces in the coming quarter, 11 percent plan reductions and 71 percent expect no change in payrolls in the January-March time frame.
The strongest optimism for 1st quarter of 2012 is reported by employers from the Transport, Storage & Communication and Finance & Business Services industry sectors. Job seekers in the Construction (+8%) industry sector may also expect some offers in the quarter ahead; the Outlook declines slightly from previous quarter, but improves from Q1 2011 by 8 percentage points, suggesting employers may be moderately more confident in their ability to justify adding to their payrolls compared to last winter season.
Regional Outlooks are modest and indicate the first-quarter hiring pace will slow. Positive hiring intentions are reported in five of the six regions. The strongest regional Outlook is reported in the South region (+7%). (Manpower Group)


According to HSBC Global Research Poland offers the cheapest equities in the CEE.
The authors of HSBC report “Mispriced. CEEMEA equity projections” find Polish valuations among the cheapest on emerging markets what bears testimony to its attractiveness and great investment opportunities compared to the rest of Europe.
Furthermore, the HSBC’s experts note relatively good macroeconomic data: remarkably steady growth, inflation and interest rates under control.
Valuations are attractive by historical standards, and both domestic and foreign liquidity could provide support.
In 2011 EPS (Earning per Share) growth is 27,7%, while the forecasts for EMEA is 20,5%, and for emerging markets 10,4%.
- Our key overweights are Russia, Turkey and Poland - the HSBC’s analysts report - we are reducing Hungary to neutral. Czech and Egypt stay neutral. (HSBC)

Japanese investment in Katowice - Yamazaki Mazak Technology Centre

Japanese investment in Katowice- Yamazaki Mazak Technology Centre

Yamazaki Mazak, the world's largest producer of machine tools for metal cutting, constructs a technology centre in Katowice.
In 2004 at the beginning of its operations in Poland Yamazaki Mazak chose Katowice due to the location of major Polish industry units, good communication context of the city and the access to highly skilled engineering staff. Today the Poland-based section of the company employs 21 people in the departments of trade, technology and service.
The new Technology Centre, which Yamazaki Mazak Corporation also decided to locate in Katowice, will become not only the distribution and service centre for machine tools, but above all a place where the company’s latest technologies in metalworking will be implemented as well as a place where Polish specialists will get professional training. The Centre's activities will focus on technical and technological support for users of machine tools produced by Yamazaki Mazak and on the organization of training courses for their buyers and users. - We really wanted to attract thet Yamazaki Mazak here because it is a company active in high-tech industry. We also hope that this project will encourage other Japanese companies to invest in Katowice - says Piotr Uszok, President of Katowice.

Yamazaki Mazak Technology Centre

The new building will consist of two-storey office section area of about 400m2 and a space prepared for the organization of exhibitions (of about 500m2). Japanese firm Takenaka Europe is the general constructor of the building. In fact, the company carries out almost all building projects run by Japanese investors in Europe. Yet the company’s subcontractors are local construction companies from Silesia. The Construction Technology Centre was launched on March 1st, 2011 but the new building will be ready in December 2011. The project was actively supported by the Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency (PAIiIZ).
Yamazaki Mazak was founded in 1919 in the Japanese city of Nagoya. The Japanese manufacturer of weaving machines was developing relatively quickly and started producing machines for the processing of wood and metal. In the 1960s Yamazaki Mazak entered the international arena, starting to export its products to the U.S. Yamazaki Mazak Corporation, currently in its nine manufacturing facilities (located in Japan, Singapore, China, USA and UK), employs approximately 7,000 employees, of which about 900 in Europe. Yamazaki Mazak is the official supplier to Formula 1 Team Vodafone McLaren Mercedes, supplying machine tools, on which this team’s cars are produced. (UM Katowice).
