Since I am looking for a job now, I spend alot of time searching Monster, careerbuilder, salesforce, hotjobs, etc. Monster seems to be most productive, but how impersonal is monster for actually applying for a job. I am curious how many people actually apply for and receive jobs by actually using the monster form for submitting applications? I have tried a few, we will see.
I would love a job in business development, sales, or marketing. This would increase my experience and exposure to business operation and growth. I am extremely flexible and would consider contract or termed employent. Peformance based compensation would be a big plus especially for a company who really cares about results.
Does this region need a marketing company that can assist companies with the 21st century growth they need to stay competitive in the coming decades? There is so much new thought about business and marketing that needs implemented. What was the last ad you responded to in the newspaper? on TV? one that inspired you to take action. Probably hard to remember. Not to say they do not work at all, but it is easier to spend money doing the same old thing, and it takes alot of work to implement new ideas and strategies. I guess the demand for a new marketing company lies in the number of firms who are ready to embrace new things.
