This edition of the JOTW newsletter comes to you from Tokyo, Japan.

***  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.

 

JOTW is sent out on Mondays by email with a list the jobs posted in the full newsletter, which is posted online at www.nedsjotw.com.  This is designed to keep the size of the emails to a more manageable length.

***  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.

Writing with Clarity

 

Your business success depends on your ability to craft messages and stories with clarity, efficiency, and focus. Whether you are writing a persuasive e-mail to an executive, an entertaining story for your intranet, a news release, or a disappointing message to a colleague, your writing needs to be precise, interesting, and convincing.

 

Ken O’Quinn’s Writing With Clarity workshops have helped thousands of professionals worldwide at such companies as Chevron, Visa, Oracle, Campbell’s Soup, Raytheon, Sprint, John Deere, Burson-Marsteller, and Fleishman Hillard.

***  Mochi Pounding:

 

I had an opportunity to see the Chief Petty Officers of both the U.S. Navy and Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force get together here in Yokosuka on the JMSDF base for the annual Mochi Pounding.  It was a family affair, with traditional Japanese and American fare (I stuck to the Japanese food, but our hosts loved the American barbeque).  I stayed away from the sake.

 

Mochi (餅, もち?) is Japanese rice cake, with the rice pounded into a glutiinous paste and molded into the shape, such as crackers or cakes.  It is made in a traditional ceremony called mochitsuki.  The kids got a chance to slaw the mallet into the paste.

 

Mochi pounding is an art form in itself…and a skill to be perfected.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olTuSpJTL2g

 

I enjoyed wonderful udon noodles and takoyaki.

 

Takoyaki (たこ焼き or 蛸焼?) is a ball-shaped snack made of a wheat flour-based batter–typically filled with octopus (tako) and other goodies, and served with pickled ginger and takoyaki sauce and mayonnaise, and sprinkled with seaweed (aonori) and dried bonito (katsuobushi).

 

***  Dinner on Saturday was at Sangosho (www.sangosho.net) with Darian Wilson and family/friends.  I enjoyed the mushroom and the eggplant curry, ribs and the garlic french fries.

 

It has kind of a cool Hawaiian decor and vibe, but the food is unique, and not Hawaiian.

Our bold and beautiful offices are located in Plymouth Meeting, minutes from the entrance to the Blue Route, the Schuylkill Expressway and the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

How to Apply: E-mail your resume to Jessica Phelan at jphelan@vaultcommunications.com.

36.)  Supervisor, Public Relations, Allen & Gerritsen, Philadelphia, PA

 

As Olivia Pope would say, “It’s handled.” Or, “I’m never out of options.” And better yet, “If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work, but you have to try, because if you try, if you leap and you try, and it doesn’t work out, it’s not on you.” (Yes, that’s something she actually said.)

 

Basically, we’re looking for the next Olivia Pope (male or female) to join our PR team as a Supervisor. Don’t worry, you won’t have to help take down a secret government agency as part of the gig. But bonus points if you have any idea what we’re talking about here because we heart pop culture.

 

Our new team member will be psyched to both ideate and implement – we want an innovative thinker who can see a big idea through to execution. Someone with demonstrated creative thinking in PR beyond earned media who’s intensely curious about what’s next for the industry and how we can stay ahead of the curve.

 

Great writing is a must. Stellar media relations skills are, too. And enthusiasm for working hand in hand with other agency practices (creative, social, etc.) is key to the success of our new team member.

 

The winner of this position will have a critical role on the Agency PR team, with frequent responsibility for identifying and telling agency stories. Also central to our PR growth strategy is the A&G Brand Newsroom, so if you’re excited about being a reporter and/or an editor, we’re excited to hear from you. (Not sure what Brand Newsroom is? Google “Laser Ham” + “Michael Ian Black.”)

 

We want someone who is aware of the idiosyncrasies of practicing PR within an advertising agency. Someone who wants to make a mark on a national level, yet who doesn’t think they’re above pitching a story or writing a conference report. Our new team member will need to do lots of both.

 

Think you have what it takes? Tell us why – and feel free to send along links to your Twitter, LinkedIn, blog, or any other online presence you may have. How else will we dig up dirt on you? (Definitely send it but we’ll find it anyway. Remember, Olivia Pope is our spirit animal.)
