In the times of recession and countries running out of money, and banks giving more out to the fat cats than they can afford. It is time to start keeping an eye on the job markets. Not that I am looking for a job, and not that I have the best job in the world. The best job in the world has got to be chief chocolate taster in a well know Swiss chocolate factory. Yummy. Or maybe a beer tasting brewery for the boys, grrrr.
Anyway, here at ISMTE we have a Career Centre, where you can do a number of things;
- Post an anonymous resume (US) or CV (UK).
- View new jobs each day
- View the resumes
- Post a job
- Post a personal job alert
If you go to http://www.jobtarget.com/home/index.cfm?site_id=7287 have a little play around and see what is around.
For example the other day a job in Boston was posted for a technical editor for the American Meteorological Society. There are jobs for copy editors, editorial assistants, production assistants, editors, project managers.
Create yourself an account and keep an eye on things, if you are a publisher you can view peoples resumes/CVs. If you are a company you can advertise yourselves or find others. I find it very interesting to see how the industry is moving and believe it or not their are jobs out there.
So if anyone finds anything or finds it useful the please feedback on how we could improve it. let me know as I am interested to see how helpful it is.
And if anyone wants to find me a beer tasting job on a small sunny island surrounded by lovely ladies then please let me know. Until then I shall be at my desk wading through copy for our next issue or maybe I might push the boat out and edit something. (Damn it).
Toodle pip.
