Mehmet Cankiri - Job Ad Analysis

1. Power Construction is a very old and stable company. They only perform work in greater Chicago area. I have known about Power Construction for about 3.5 years. Power Construction always attends to Building Construction Management (BCM) job fair and is a partner of BCM department.

2. Yes, Power Construction has a website like most other companies do since we live in the technology era. The url for the website is http://www.powerconstruction.net. Power Construction’s philosophy consists of five components. They are, Integrity: Trusting and long-term relationship with their customers, Excellence: Consistency and excellence creates loyalty, Teamwork: Shared achievement and prosperity for both the owner and Power Construction, Innovation: Being creative to grow, and finally Financial Stability: Optimize and measure financial risks for long-term security.

3. Power construction is getting more than 90% of its work from repeat clients. This clearly shows the company philosophy and policy, so the most important keywords I should have on my resume are “commitment” and “loyalty”.

4. Power construction website doesn’t necessarily show what they require from the students, but one quote I saw was “Anything can look good on paper, but need to experience it to confirm your passion.” As far as I experience the job fairs every company requires and first thing they as is whether if you had an internship or not. I think commitment is the most important skill for construction industry. If you don’t dedicate yourself to work, construction can become very frustrating.
