Call For Sponsors For The 7th Annual JobMob Guest Blogging Contest

Get seen in the biggest blogging contest of the summer. My annual guest blogging contest is back for the 7th time! It might just be the longest running blogging contest, period. I say it every year and I'll say it again this year - this edition will be the biggest yet. (Planning to enter the contest? Get started on your entry to be eligible for early bird prizes, the official kickoff is coming soon.) Get great exposure and great benefits: Become a Sponsor The 2012 edition of the contest generated over 400,000 visits and 800,000 pageviews here on JobMob, 63% and 100% increases over the year before. Participants, the people vying for your sponsored prizes, were mainly business owners such as job search experts, coaches and recruiters. There will be 5 levels of sponsorship this year: Titanium, Gold, Silver, Bronze and Chrome. I want you to feel that your sponsorship was one of the best campaigns you or your company ran this year. So when it comes to benefits, I always try to give you as much value as possible, hopefully much more than the value of your sponsorship.

Speak Your Mind

[POLL] Have You Ever Dumbed Down Your Resume?

This poll was inspired by a comment from a friend. Does it make finding a job easier? A friend of mine contacted me recently to ask for advice about this job search. Among other things, I told him to send over his CV so I could give him some feedback. Once he did, I noticed something strange. He used to be the CEO of a small company but on the CV, he had put his job title as Marketing Manager. When I asked him why not include the CEO mention, which sounds impressive, he responded that "when people see that, they won't take me to be 'just' a marketing manager" because a CEO position "is not what I am trying to get." This reminded me of another story.
