Jobseeking can be an emotionally challenging time, with the constant stream of rejections and unanswered applications taking a toll on one's spirit. It's disheartening to see individuals taking advantage of this vulnerability by using click-bait tactics to gain attention or followers. This behavior is not only hurtful but also demoralizing to those who are already struggling in their job search. If you're not genuinely committed to assisting job seekers, I implore you to reconsider your approach and refrain from offering false hope or empty promises. Consider the emotional impact of your actions and the effect they have on those who are earnestly seeking employment. Let's foster a supportive environment where individuals feel respected and valued, rather than exploited for the sake of personal gain. #jobseeking #jobadvertising

I hope this (small) list can open up a few ideas of fulfilling a dream of working in sports. There are so many opportunities!!

Networking means sharing jobs with others. You may not be qualified for a job or aren't looking, but you know others who are. In that vain, I'm sharing these jobs where I have a direct contact. Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest NJ is seeking an Onsite Copywriter and Digital associate, and a Hybrid Content and Communications Manager - Sue McLean is seeking someone with basic IT skills and has a foundation in some area of Retail - or better yet, Fashion/Apparel. (i.e. store systems, merchandising, inventory, supply chain) for a perm, hybrid role in NYC for one of the largest retail apparel companies in the world looking to expand their headquarters team in NYC. In a given week I probably get 5-10 job leads from others (not the mass email ones) but from recruiting friends like Janelle Razzino and Marty Latman, CPA, CFO, Consultant, Career Coach, Mentor who fill their job through networking with others. Is the job market rough? Absolutely! That doesn't mean there aren't jobs out there but it's knowing who to connect with and why? Even though I'm not looking anymore I maintain relationships with recruiters (in house and executive ones).
