My husband is looking for a career type job, so I thought I'd post his info here and hope someone might be able to help out. Where: NE GA, we live in Winder but he doesn't mind a commute. If the job is in midddle GA, that's fine too since he has a place to stay down there during the week. His basic info: - MA in German from UGA with thesis - clerical experience - payroll using Access, MS Office, filing, etc. - electrical experience - electrician's helper for a few years (what he's doing now to pay the bills while he looks for work) - teaching experience - taught two semesters of intro level German courses while working on his MA If anybody has anything that might fit, I'd really appreciate it if you'd PM me or give me your email address here and I can send you a copy of his resume.

I know this isn't what you asked for, but I'm sure your husband could easily become a pro-level translator at Gengo.com. My BA's minor was in German and I passed the test for pro-level. Over the past 6 months I've probably made about $300 for doing little projects on the weekend when they pop up.

I'll pass it along to him. I've thought about suggesting it, but I didn't know where would be a good place to go for that kind of freelance work. Hell, I might brush up on my German (I have a BA) and see if I can pass the test for it. I need stuff to do in between spending a million hours a week on genetics anyway. Thanks for those links!

My company is always recruiting, so I figured I'd throw something here in case anyone is interested. Location: Tianjin, China I work for a Chinese-American education consulting company in Tianjin, the third/fourth largest city in China (pending your views on Hong Kong). We work with international students who are planning to go abroad, guiding them through the entire process, starting with preparation for entrance exams all the way up through sending them off with their visa to university. Some students come to us at 9th year students and work with us for three years while others come simply for their 12th year to prepare. We work with the students in a one-on-one setting, helping them choose their first year of classes/majors/dorms, and work with them in group settings as they prepare for whatever entrance exam, focusing different meetings/lessons/classes on speaking, reading, critical thinking, culture preparation, etc. Pay is competitive to local companies who hire foreigners in education, maybe a bit higher. Applicants with no educational background will be considered, though it is preferred in some aspect. If anyone is interested, you can PM me here, or leave your email address if you like. I do not feel comfortable leaving my email address here and will be happy to contact you if you have more questions or would like to learn more about what positions we have open.

Location: Los Angeles, CA (El Segundo, specifically) Position: Tech Support representative at a call center. Pay is $15/hour, $16/hour after you pass your 90 days. Job is 40 hours/week with a set schedule. As far as call center jobs go, it's one of the best I've seen (and I've seen plenty.) There is good health/vision/dental available, as well as 15 days PTO per year (not including company holidays!) Tech experience required is minimal. If you a tech-savvy goon who has the sense to Google error messages, you can probably handle the tech side of things. Good customer service skills (read: know how to talk like a human) will set you apart from the pack. We promote a ton internally, I started as a phone tech but got promoted to trainer. It's a good place to be. PM me for more info, or just respond in the thread if you have any questions.

Well if nothing else, every new post bumps the thread for other people, right? SEEKING DAT JOB LOCATION: Seattle ... or pretty much anything within a commute (however unreasonable) of Seattle. AVAILABILITY: December, potentially even November if the job was compelling enough. EDUCATION: Master's degrees in Criminal Justice and Political Science, A.B.D. in Political Science doctoral program, research primarily on immigration, border security, biometric surveillance, privacy, feminism EXPERIENCE: College teaching, political campaigns, local government, immigration research, computer game reviews(!). LOOKING FOR: Literally any job that is not telemarketing/cold-calling/canvassing/generally annoying people, manual labor, or any job that is just "administrative assistant" by another name (though I would probably take such a job if it were called STRIKE COMMANDER or something). I have applied to hundreds of government, academic, and non-profit jobs over the past year, nothing yet (except an ongoing Secret Service Special Agent process but who knows). I am starting to feel like getting the sort of job that my experience and education has best trained me for may not be possible in the current economic climate. CONTACT: PM is fine, or user name at GMail if you must.

I have a CCNA (routing & switching) cert, I'm one exam (out of three) away from an MCSA in Windows Server 2012, and I have the ITIL Foundations cert. My job has me day-to-day working on network administration (setting up and installing Cisco routers/switches) and server administration (mostly Active Directory and file/print server stuff, but I have experience with IIS, BackupExec, Citrix XenApp, VMware, etc.), but I'm rated and paid as a helpdesk level 1 support guy. I'm desperately looking to get out and find something where I'm actually doing things and creating things and working on projects, instead of trying to fit those things in between 100 "can you reset my password" phone calls per day. I'm in Winston-Salem right now working in Greensboro, but my wife and I are looking to move to Minneapolis sometime within the next few months or so. If something works out here, great, we'll stay around for a while, but if something happens for us in Minneapolis, that's even better.
