Addition Challenge = 10 questions, a little more challenging this time


Here is my best attempt at a crossword puzzle for job seekers. Can you think of another employment related word and a clue I can add? Email or message Paul with your idea! Thanks!


Chess Puzzles – Paul’s favorite!

Solving a few chess puzzles prior before an interview will prime your mind to think logically, preparing you to think a few steps ahead. Read the puzzle instructions below the chessboard, then drag/drop the pieces to execute the next best move!

Click the green play button for another puzzle, the Life Preserver icon for a hint, and the Blue Question Mark icon shows you the solution. Enjoy!


Subtraction Challenge = 10 questions, a little more challenging this time


Want to practice your knowledge of Flags from countries around the world? Below is a flashcard deck that will randomly choose 50 flags out 235 countries around the world. If you want to take a crack at the whole deck, or just try them by region, click here. They are free to use (like everything on this page).

These tools were originally created to help my kids study for tests in school and it didn’t make sense to just delete them. Turns out they work as great mental preparation tools for professionals before interviews!

Click the flag to flip the card. Clicking “Needs more practice” puts the card back on the bottom of the deck to give you another try at it. Good luck!
