"That Redhead" Featured on AOL Careers Online

I am featured in an online article in the "Find a Job" section of AOL Online. Check it out HERE.

The article also features Michael Williams, who started www.joblessredhead.com (and stood with a sign on a freeway exit in California to advertise his website). We were connected through a twist of fate and our shared interest in marketing. You can find out more in the article.

If you need the full link to the article, it's http://jobs.aol.com/articles/2010/03/25/jobless-redhead/. I'm grateful to get some online coverage, and hopefully it will lead to some good job leads. Let me know what you think of the article. As always, also let me know if you hear of any good job opportunities.

Streamlining The HireThatRedhead Site

I've made a lot of updates recently. If you've not visited HireThatRedhead.com in awhile, I encourage you to do so.

I added my most recent job experience to my resume - Book Pool Coordinator at Goodwill Industries of the Big Bend. Check out my RESUME to find out more.

I added an option to subscribe to blog posts by email on the homepage, care of www.FeedBurner.com.

I scrapped the old BLOG page on HireThatRedhead (on which I originally embedded my blog site) in favor of a simple link to this blog on the sidebar. I enjoyed the novelty of the former page, but I enjoy simplification and "ease of use" more.

I changed the RECOMMENDATIONS page to more easily exhibit all the recommendations I've received from three different sources - traditional letters, blog comments, and Linkedin.

I've put the website through a process of continual improvement over the last few months. I think it's pretty good for someone whose forte is not necessarily web design.

Let me know what you think of the improvements.
