Get on the-ladder

Advantages: Employers can see more than the standard 2 page A4 CV
Disadvantages: It takes a while to fill out the form

I think the-ladder.com is brilliant. It offers the chance to get your real potential as a graduate employee on show for companies to see. There are two "entrances" on the bright yellow site - 1 for students, and 1 for prospective employers, and access can be gained to either of them - which is useful in particular for students, so that they can see what sort of selection criteria a company is looking for, and fill out their cv accordingly. After entering the site through the student entrance you are offered the chance to fill out details about yourself in a form (which can be done offline) which creates the basis of an extended and detailed cv. This enables employers to view more that can be fitted on to the usual 2 sides of A4 which make up a regular cv. There are certain fields which you have to fill in, as well as optional ...

Snakes and Ladders

Advantages: educational, fun for children, available at reasonable prices, easy to play
Disadvantages: not so fun for adults!

If they land on the head of a snake then they have to go down the snake to the square where its ...

Review of Snakes and Ladders

Play Wabbits & Windows? Nah! Snakes & Ladders!..

Advantages: A good kids game.
Disadvantages: None at all.

Snakes and Ladders! An old game played by kids, A good classic game. You all know the rules, you have all played the game, so why are you even reading this review? Good question, yes, but the other question is, Why am I writing it? The answer is this:-. I start with the fact that the game is easy, so easy in fact that you don't even need instructions, you could get people who have never seen a board game before, to play around and have a good time. Age is immaterial, so is gender. This is a small game to stow away, so you won't have to throw it away to create more space, In the old games, the board folded in half, but nowadays the new ones actually fold in quarters, so the box is very small. It is one of those games that actually bring a family together, rather than causing kids to argue. This is I think the main reason ...
