We have almost completed the aftermath analysis of National Hug Your Boss Day - what brilliant and far-reaching involvement we had this year. We saw mentions including pictures and videos of hugging with bosses and colleagues spanning around the Globe, from Australia to The USA, from The Phillippines to Germany and many more. It really was fantastic to see some many people having fun with the day and hopefully thinking about the serious side of it too :)
You can now see some of the pictures we managed to capture up on the website here.
If we did not publish yours and you want to see it here, please do email us and we would be glad to include your picture.
So, until next year, do remember that your working relationships are hugely important to your everyday happiness at work so please do invest some time in developing them.

We are pleased to share some changes to TipTopJob. We have now increased the limit of the CV/Resume sizes you can upload into your account. They used to have a limit of 500Kb but it is now 750Kb giving you 250Kb more space! This may not mean much to you in terms of Kb but you can be rest assured that you will be less likely to receive any errors when uploading larger CV/Resumes.
It is however still recommend to limit the number of pictures includes as this can greatly increase the size to an unmanageable amount. Including pictures of yourself can also add an element of bias or judgement to a recruiter and in some Countries it is probably best avoided as less common practice. You will also want to leave out any pictures of visas/permits etc and supply these directly to a recruiter upon request. There is no need to include them in your CV/Resume at this early stage and usually they increase the size too much.
Given the adjustments in limits, we have reduced the number of CV/Resumes allowed in the accounts from 5 to 3. We have found many duplicates and therefore unnecessary to have these multiple items. If you want to apply for more than 3 jobs and require a different CV/Resume for each, once you have made an application you can simply remove an existing CV/Resume and upload a new one.
If you have any questions relating to these changes, please do get in touch with us via email.
