The Free Job of the Week Newsletter
This is JOTW newsletter number 2,064
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
– Dale Carnegie
This edition of JOTW comes to you from Danville, Virginia.
*** Welcome to the JOTW network!
You are one of more than 5,700+ 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.
*** A special message to my JOTW subscribers
Thank you for the many notes you have sent me about JOTW coming to an end. And additional thanks to those who have volunteered to keep it going. I’ll post some of the comments in this and upcoming issues of JOTW. As for determining who to pass it along to, I hadn’t given it much thought, and I don’t have a mechanism to determine the most-worthy successor. I’m working on that now.
*** Here are some comments about the Job of the Week Newsletter and its impending shutdown:
*** From LB:
Hi Ned,
I’m mainly a digital comms and event person but I’ve found (and posted) a few jobs via your newsletter over the years.
That said, I would also like to thank you for your work and service to job-seekers and job posters over the years.
Best wishes,
LB
*** From James J. Henderson III:
Even though I’ve never been hired as a result of any of your postings, the newsletter is a genuine pleasure to read. I’ve been a subscriber for at least 15 years. I especially enjoy your April fools edition.
I hope that you enjoy your time. Thank you for your service.
James J. Henderson III

None this week
*** 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.
