Question: What is diplomacy? Essential criteria in a job application?

Ok so I’m pretty sure I know what the word means… I think but I’m feeling out an application that one of the essential criteria is diplomacy?? How do I prove that I’m diplomatic? It’s for a fundraising job by the by
I mean filling not feeling

Answer: It has more than one meaning, diplomacy can be abvout governments but in your case its about being ‘diplomatic’ in a situation-
If your diplomatic, it means your skilled in dealing with sensitive matters or people…

means you can deal with, handle and or manage certain situations…

perhaps your a good listener, understanding, a problem solver…work well under pressure etc etc

To prove it give an example of where you have handled a situation diplomatically : When have you shown these qualities before? At school, college, a previous job?

Relate it to the volunteer job.

good luck…

“I’m leading the effort to rein in Wall Street,” he said at his weekly on-camera news conference. “I’m going to make sure that in this legislation I do everything within my ability to make sure that banks aren’t too big to fail.”

and now the real knee slapper…

When news of Reid’s Goldman Sachs fundraiser was circulated yesterday, NRSC spokesman Brain Walsh said, “One can only presume that Sen. Reid will be return these donations immediately.” Today, Manley said the majority leader plans to keep the money.
