JOTW 42-2022
October 17, 2022
The Free Job of the Week Newsletter
This is JOTW newsletter number 1,969
The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious of the rose.
– Kahlil Gibran
This edition of JOTW comes to you from Springfield, Virginia.
*** October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
*** Welcome to the JOTW network!
You are one of more than 5,970+ members in the JOTW subscriber network.
This is the award-winning free Job of the Week e-mail networking newsletter for professional communicators, dedicated to the positive unanticipated consequences of networking, or as we call it, “nedworking.” JOTW is a cooperative service. That means JOTW relies on the contributions of its members, like you. We share job opportunities, news and information about the job market, as well as swapping stories about life’s peculiarities. We connect you with others who are like you, and together we help each other. What a concept. Did I mention it’s free?
*** To submit a job for sharing on JOTW, please provide the job title, organization or company, and location and send it to Ned at lundquist989@cs.com. Provide a link or contact info so people can check out your listing or follow up if interested.
*** Posting a job is free. Recruiters can submit up to three jobs for free. Each job listing may be posted once in the newsletter for free
I request that you do not send pdf files that I have to copy and reformat. I prefer you provide your very brief job description in an email rather than an enclosure. Please limit the size of your position descriptions (generally to 500 words or less). “Can’t Wait” blast email priority listings are $300, and “Top Job” placement is $100. Just send to me at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** This is a cooperative service. It relies on your participation and contribution. As you receive the benefit of this free newsletter, you should also send in jobs you learn about. This is especially the case when there are job listings in the companies that you work for.
*** To sign up for JOTW’s new Google Groups list, send an email to Ned at lundquist989@cs.com and request to join the JOTW listserv. If you received this as an email from neds-job-of-the-week@googlegroups.com, then you are on this list.

*** One Paragraph Pitch:
EZ Newswire is the first tool that allows small businesses to easily automate the writing and publishing of news releases; it’s free and only takes a few minutes. We’ve taken the pain out of the PR process with our turnkey solution so that businesses of every shape and size can get their news out, create buzz, and grow sales. At the same time, we are working with local publishers so that they can learn about, and possibly cover, business news affecting their community as well as attract advertising dollars away from Google and Facebook and back toward their own publications.
EZNewswire has been used by:
- Alibaba and Hello Alice to promote their SMB (small medium sized business) grant program
- NY Chamber of Commerce for grand opening events attended by local elected officials
- Startups and multi-location firms across the country to announce new hires, locations, and partnerships
*** Send your One Paragraph Pitch submissions to lundquist989@cs.com. You can pitch yourself or your business any way you want, as long as it’s short and to the point. You can include a photo, too! There is no waiting list. Or, if there is, the queue is pretty short. And it’s free! Submit yours today!

*** From Claudia Gonzalez:
Hi Edward,
We would love to run this opportunity in your newsletter.
These jobs are campaign jobs that require various skills, but in a nutshell, it is: creating pitches, training folks on tightening up their pitches, working in the community, and engaging the community to vote, and leadership skills as they will manage a team of canvassers.
Best,
Claudia

Recruiter
The Outreach Team
15.) Field Director, Black 2 The Future, Greensboro, NC
We are hiring Field Directors to work on a survey campaign to engage Black voters (and non-voters) across North Carolina. Our campaign aims to build Black political power by engaging our communities, centering issues most important to those communities, educating and organizing around those issues, and transforming Black communities into constituencies that impact policy to better serve our needs and dreams in the city and statewide.
Field Directors will recruit, train, and manage a team of local canvassers to engage with voters in Black communities in Greensboro. Additionally, the Lead Campaign Director will manage a team of two or more Deputy Directors and will be responsible for building an office to scale from the ground up.

Equity: If you are interested in this position but don’t think you qualify for everything, please don’t let that stop you from applying! At The Outreach Team, we prioritize equity and inclusion and believe our work is better when it benefits from the knowledge, experience, and wisdom of people who have faced systemic barriers.
We are an equal opportunity employer and we strongly encourage Black, indigenous, people of color, women, people with previous felony convictions, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and others who identify with underrepresented groups to apply.
