The Free Job of the Week Newsletter
This is JOTW newsletter number 1,992
“A brave man is a man who dares to look the devil in the face and tell him he is a devil.”
– James A. Garfield
This edition of JOTW comes to you from Springfield, Virginia
*** 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.
*** This week’s Can’t Wait postings:
Can’t Wait jobs: These jobs are forwarded to the entire list as soon as they are received, and do not wait for the Monday newsletter, and are posted prominently on the JOTW website. Then they are posted first in the weekly JOTW newsletter. Can’t Wait postings cost $300. Contact Ned at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** This week’s Top Job:
None this week.
Top Jobs: Stand above the rest. Your job can be right here, at the top of the weekly JOTW newsletter. Top job placement costs $100 per job per week. To be on top, contact Ned at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** If you find out about a job opportunity in communications, send it to me (lundquist989@cs.com), and I’ll share it with the JOTW network.

*** One Paragraph Pitch:
Leslie Strazzullo
I’m an accomplished b2b marketer with a track record in developing strategic and actionable marketing campaigns across multiple geographies and industries, including chemicals, HVAC, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, telecoms, and travel & leisure. I’m comfortable with simple plug-and-play products to highly technical solutions. In addition, I’m skilled at communicating up and down organizations. I can easily tap into the expertise of subject matter experts and translate this into aligned, focused, and localized communication materials that work across numerous countries and languages. My success is demonstrated through consistent returns on investment, significant lead generation, and customer growth. With an early career in corporate communications, I broadened my business background in marketing after completing an MBA in the USA and Italy. I am a native English speaker (American) who has lived in Europe for a significant period. I’m now looking for a regional or global role where I can bring my marketing and leadership expertise to deliver business growth. For more information about me, please check out my LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lesliestrazzullo/ or email me at lafstrazz@gmail.com.
