En el currícu lum, las mujeres em pleamos menos verb os activos que los hom bres y así ellos se vend en mejor. Te enseñam os a poner el lenguaje d e tu parte.
De sobra es sabido que encontrar las palabras oportunas en una entrevista de trabajo puede llevarte al wéxito… o al fracaso. Más aún si lo dice la directora de Linkedin España y Portugal, Sarah Harmon, quien no sólo se refiere a la soltura, la capacidad de comunicación o la resolución, sino también a la forma con que hombres y mujeres describen su perfil o contestan a las ofertas. Los estereotipos, según la experta, pesan como losas: ellos se muestran más activos mientras que nosotras, incluso cuando tenemos puestos de gran responsabilidad, solemos presentarnos de forma modesta. Un estudio de esta comunidad social, basado en los datos de más de 141 millones de sus miembros en Estados Unidos, señala que las mujeres nos promocionamos considerablemente menos. Además, nuestros perfiles son más cortos e incluyen un 11% menos de habilidades, incluso cuando se trata de ocupaciones y grados de experiencia similares. “No es una característica innata a la mujer, es algo cultural y educacional -apunta Harmon-. Parece que no está bien visto que presumamos de nuestros logros en el trabajo. Pero eso tiene que cambiar”. Para ello, la experta aconseja utilizar más términos y verbos activos, y no tener pudor al poner nuestras hazañas en las redes sociales, sobre todo las relacionadas con el mundo laboral: “También animo a las mujeres a usar la primera persona. Cada objetivo cumplido tiene un equipo detrás, pero si estás liderando ese esfuerzo, deberías decirlo en voz alta”. Si te da vergüenza, Harmon sugiere que dejes a otros que hablen por ti, poniendo reseñas de tus virtudes laborales en tus perfiles.

Are mosquitoes getting more dangerous? - It's not news that mosquitoes carry a number of viruses and parasites that can be harmful to human health, including malaria, dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, West Nile virus, and eastern equine encephalitis.
Mosquitoes seem to be everywhere this year, and they're not just a nuisance at outdoor gatherings. Health experts say they're carrying some serious diseases—a fact that's hitting home in the U.S., as some towns in Massachusetts have shut down public parks and other outdoor areas in the evenings, after mosquitoes in the region were learned to be carrying eastern equine encephalitis, a rare but deadly virus. And Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's former top infectious-disease expert, was recently hospitalized with a West Nile virus infection he is believed to have acquired from a mosquito buzzing through his backyard.
There can be only one Sally Rooney
A FEW YEARS AGO, SOMEONE POSTED a photo of a man walking through Brooklyn with a copy of Conversations With Friends tucked in the back of his trousers, the words SALLY ROONEY peeking out above his waistband. It was an accessory that telegraphed as much about his personal style as his choice in attire did. Less than a month earlier, the book critic Constance Grady had published an essay titled \"The Cult of Sally Rooney,\" deeming it \"aspirational\" to be a fan: \"If you read Sally Rooney, the thinking seems to go, you're smart, but you're also fun and you're also cool enough to be suspicious of both 'smart' and 'fun' as general concepts.\"
