Key terms
- Employment. In the workspace, employment is an agreement between an employer, who agrees to compensate an employee in exchange for his or her work time, and an employee, who agrees to follow the employer's directions during work hours in exchange for the employee compensation, as well as a process and/or result of that exchange.
- Employment motivation model. A framework for analyzing employment motivation that identifies three domains that contribute to the motivation to work. These domains include the job itself, its compensation, and its fit to one's life.
- Work-life fit.
Script
- Employment is an agreement between at least two parties, which are an employer and employee. The employer compensates the employee for his or her work time. The employee agrees to follow the employer's directions during work hours in exchange for the employee compensation. In the United States, the employee compensation must include money.
- An employer usually hires an employee to deliver some increments that the employer sells to the customers. Ideally, the employer collects money from the customers and pays the employees for the delivered work.
- The employment motivation model demonstrates what motivates people to be hired. In order to work, an employee needs to be comfortable with three things. The first is the nature of job itself, the second is the job's compensation, and the third is so-called work-life fit or job's fit to employee's life.
- If you are interested in either becoming a WorldOpp fellow or joining the CNM IT Taskforce, you would be able to enroll in the CNM Cyber Placement. The Taskforce's onboarding for a newbie to the digital industry usually lasts 3-5 weeks. The others can make it faster.
- The fellows land their jobs through the WorldOpp Pipeline programme. If they start from ground zero, dedicate at least 20 hours a week, they land initial jobs as apprentices within 2-3 months in the programme. It takes 2-3 years to be competitive for well-paying jobs.
- Currently, there is a $100 bonus payable to anyone who refers a WorldOpp fellow upon his or her admission to the WorldOpp programme.
- If you are not interested in enrolling in the CNM Cyber Placement upon your completion of the Orientation, you are welcome to utilize CNM Cyber for their career enhancement, become a partner, contractor, or volunteer mentor for CNM Cyber Team, as well as just do nothing.
- Whomever you choose to be within the CNM Cyber Workforce, the Orientation will provide you with detailed instructions how to make that real.
Work Sellers is the successor lectio.
