This is a generic article that's been written at least 9,000 times in the last ten years. You can find a version of it on every career advice web site in the universe, along with top ten mistakes on resumes, top ten mistakes applicants make on applications and top ten ways to ace that interview.

I'm making a generic newspaper. I think I'll add this article, along with "Pope Denounces Violence," "Lindsay Lohan Behaving Strangely" and "Flaw Found in Microsoft Operating System."

Exactly, that's why I keep seeing the same fluff recycled over and over again.

It's what they call in the trade a "standing headline."

As in:

CHILD MAIMED IN PIT-BULL ATTACK

MOTHER PLAYS IN CASINO, LEAVES BABY IN CAR IN 90 DEGREE HEAT

LOCAL POLITICIAN MIRED IN SEX SCANDAL

RETURN OF SPRING LINKED TO GLOBAL WARMING
