Our next employee spotlight highlights our Director of Talent Aquisition, Carla Meyer! What is something you've learned recently that has had a positive impact on your work? "I am a lifelong learner and always looking for opportunities to increase my knowledge – in the last year I have been learning more about developmental coaching. It’s still very much a work in progress, but I feel coaching has increased my ability to listen to others." Describe a place that holds special meaning to you and why: "Placencia, Belize is a beach that holds special meaning for me, as it is a place my partner and I go to escape city life and really relax. Letting go of my responsibilities is difficult for me and Placencia enables me to just “be calm”. 😊" What hobbies or interests do you bring to the workplace, and how do they impact your creativity or problem-solving? "I love books, concerts, traveling, and just being in nature – my hobbies have enabled me to keep an open mind, treat others with respect, and tolerate differences – all of which are important in a collaborative work environment like zLinq!" #employeespotlight #bestemployeesever #teamculture #transformtelecom

At zLinq we have are committed to fostering a community of diversity, inclusion and acknowledgement. Today marks an important date in American history, Juneteenth. The holiday, observed on June 19, is also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, and has been celebrated by communities across the US for more than a century. What Is Juneteenth? On January 1, 1863, in the middle of the Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation was issued by US President Abraham Lincoln. It granted freedom to “all persons held as slaves” in 10 Confederate-controlled states. However, for the most part, the order was not enforced until Union soldiers were able to advance into these areas after the end of the war, the beginning of which came in April 1865 with the surrender of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. Where did Juneteenth get its name? The origins of Juneteenth date back to June 19, 1865, when Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger, a U.S. Army officer and Union General during the Civil War, issued an order in Galveston, Texas, announcing that all slaves were free under the Emancipation Proclamation. About 250,000 Black people enslaved in Texas were the last in the country to receive notice of the proclamation, which President Abraham Lincoln had signed into law more than two years prior granting freedom to all enslaved people in Confederate states. Wishing Everyone a Happy Juneteenth!

This week's employee spotlight hires our Marketing Coordinator Sarah Hopkins who has been with zLinq full-time since Feb 2024! Can you tell us a bit about your role and responsibilities at the company? I am the Marketing Coordinator at zLinq, which means I act like the swiss-army knife of marketing. I joined zLinq's marketing team in February 2024, and have worked on everything from website redesign to managing our paid media channels, eBook design, webinar creation, and anything else Stew comes up with.   What's your favorite childhood memory that still brings a smile to your face? When I was 9 years old, I got the chance to compete at USA Jump Rope Nationals in Orlando, FL. It was my first time competing on the national stage, and I ended up on the podium in mixed doubles freestyle! It was also my first time traveling to the east coast, and experiencing so many things out of my element at once taught me composure in the face of adversity (both the competition and the humidity). Disney World was pretty fun too!   Do you have a favorite recipe or dish that you love to cook or indulge in? I love cooking with fresh pasta and vegetables! Living in Oregon means everything grows big and fast, so I've been able to cultivate quite the garden - tomatoes, basil, oregano, bell peppers, to name a few. #employeespotlight #weloveouremployees #transformtelecom
