As a child and young adult I was very independent. Regardless of the situation, if I was doing something I was determined to do it myself and not ask for anyone's help. In my eyes asking for someone's help was akin to admitting defeat or somehow showing others that I was weak or incompetent. My attitude was "If someone else can do it, I can do it". How Naive.

Colleagues, I feel your pain on this issue.
Scenario #1: You’ve got a critical position that needs to be filled by a qualified candidate, and quick. For every day the position doesn’t get filled, your in-box fills up a bit more with work to be done because your unfilled position hasn’t been staffed. You see tons of resumes and have interviewed scores of candidates, but the rock star you’re looking for isn’t emerging. You refuse to “settle” for a mediocre candidate, but the work is piling up and you’ve got to do something.
So you're browsing Career Builder or reading the classifieds and you see the job of your dreams staring you right in the face. You brush up your resume, write a killer cover letter and send it in sealed with a kiss and a prayer. A week later, someone from HR calls telling you they'd like you to come in for an interview. Wahoo!!! So the hard part is over, now you've got the hard part left. To help you nail the interview and be sitting pretty in the job you've always wanted, keep these nuggets tucked in your bonnet:
Joseph Ellis, a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, was suspended for a year from Mount Holyoke College for lying about serving in the Vietnam War.
