Hire a Flyertalker
 

Note: SPN Lifer Suggested that Comicwoman restart this thread as she was the OP, if she would like to do so, I'm happy to let this one take a back seat :) In the meantime...

I'm in the process of adding some folks for our offices in Fl & Ca and thought I'd review the "Hire a Flyertalker" thread started by Comicwoman. Unfortunately, admin tells me that old threads didn't make it to the new FT so I'd like to start this one again. We are looking for:

Great to see this thread re-started! Hopefully we have lots of FlyerTalkers back flying and working in great jobs - and that we can add to their numbers with the help of others who read this board.

Keep the original intent of this thread in mind; Post your skills if you are looking for another position or have one open at your company - If there are no takers I guess the economy isn't as bad as some would have us believe ;)

Don't Take This the Wrong Way
 

The Healthcare industry is well noted for not talking to people "without prior healthcare experience". When it comes to IT related things, we don't see the point. None of the hardware companies make different computers just for hospitals, and other industries (say international equity traders) also think it mission critical for IT to work all the time.

People in health care seem to think that those of us not in the industry are too stupid to understand doctors, and will waste the physicians' valuable time.

I can well understand that software deelopment needs industy knowledge to create a useful product, but Internet is Internet and it works the same for everybody.

It is a shame that the original Hire a FlyerTalker thread has vanished. Comicwoman had a brilliant idea when she launched that thread. May this thread be far more successful and useful than the original version!

This is a reminder that the The FlyerTalk Business Exchange Forum thread still exists for those people who wish to promote commerce within the FlyerTalk community and inform other FlyerTalk members of the products and services offered by their businesses.

Hopefully, if the The FlyerTalk Business Exchange Forum is successful enough and helps FlyerTalk members grow their business and therefore need to hire more employees, then this thread will become even more popular and useful...

So, let's see. I think that would bring my lifetime total to...one. :p

In our case, we hired a company with no previous healthcare experience and their learning curve was pretty steep - this translated into much higher cost for our project just because these guys had to learn on our dime

Carnasie Thanks for posting the link, I was looking for it ^ :)

Well it's been quite an amazing journey of two and a half years through Laid-Off Land for me. I have finally received a full-time offer and will be rejoining the ranks of the employed. We're haggling over details but I wanted to share my good news with the others who might still be unemployed. Hang in there and my best wishes are with you.

Congratulations!!! ^ ^ :-:

CozumelJen Good for you ^ guess you won't be doing much mystery shopping from here on out though huh? ;)

Congrats Jen! After seeing your credentials I am shocked that it took you this long for some employer to see the light. I wish you all the best with the new position. ^

wow, thank you all so much!

Just don't haggle yourself back to the unemployment line

congrats

CONGRATULATIONS! ^

No more biking to the beach during the week..... ;)

Way to go, Jen!
 

Hearty congratulations, Jen, and so well-deserved. I admire the way you've kept moving forward in such good spirit for all of those difficult months. Best of luck for brighter days ahead.

Aloha!

Let's not go crazy now.

Well, okay, but it might round to one.

go jen!

while I was unemployed Jen sent me tons of opportunities for "mystery shopping" and lots of notes of good cheer!

now as of today I am unemployed again so keep those sggestions coming in folks!

bump.

maybe this thread and the Business Exchange thread should be made sticky?

Knowledge of the Act? Does ANYONE have knowledge of it? Does anyone really know what they're doing yet? Our specifications have changed several times based upon who is actually interpretting the act.

We've been at it since last July, it is a nightmare, plain & simple.

Good luck, you're going to need it ;)

I'll let a few of our IAs know about your position. They're dropping like flies in our offices ;)

Mr. Spellbound2 knows a lot about Sarbanes-Oxley Act!
 

Primarily as it relates to information security controls, section 404. In order to meet the requirements, a company must show that proper controls are in place for identity management (who has access to the financial records) and data protection and integrity (are the financials valid and un-altered?). He recommends and implements a range of security controls such as proper use of encryption and authentication to help companies achieve SOX 404 compliance.

sllevin, we'll let you know if we find any people for you at his upcoming conference ^ :cool: http://www.sans.org/sanslamp04/description.php?tid=55

FWIW, I've filled one of the above positions, but am still hoping to find a FlyerTalker for at least one of the other two positions!

Another unemployed flyertalker
 

Hi,

Well as of last night I am unemployed :( thanks to the sudden closure of the facility I worked at :( It's not a total suprise (see my online shopping comparison thread for a bit about the last 3 weeks....

Anyway - change brings opportunities so if anyone has a job out there in the US (anywhere in the US - am happy to move) that they know of please let me know - my resume will give you a decent idea of my background etc (Call Center implementation and management, sales & marketing, and university student recruitment). So please drop me a line ([email protected]) if you know of anything.

A few items: I am a citizen of Australia and South Africa and a US Permanent Resident (Greencard) - so I need to maintain my US residency for the next 4 years to become a citizen.

I don't have a security clearance :(

Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.

Andrew

just a quick bump. Still looking (I know its day 4 but I really don't like to be out of work:) ).

Well its happened to me for the first time..
 

After dodging layoffs in the IT undustry for years, I finally got nailed..
I'm an ex "big 4" technical leader/project manager.. I made a bad career move and It's come back to haunt me..

I've got a long history with networks (I remember using 10base5 and 10base2!) but haven't had more than cursory hands on with the modern stuff (Cisco 6509s etc)

I have a nack for spotting future trends (I've been a linux promoter since 1999), a Novell administrator since 1988) and can adapt to new technologies faster than most.. and I've travelled all over the world to use those skills.

The above is rather vague, simply because I've covered such a large range of topics during my 18 year career, I've lead international teams with $20million implementation budgets, I've managed network transitions for fortune 500 clients.. and I've done it all on time and under budget.

If anyone has any suggestions, post them here, or email me at mailto:[email protected] and I'll reply as soon as I'm able

Thanks to all of you that support this list..

Best wishes

Brian

As long as the thread has been bumped, I have a single System Administrator position open. (see above for more description).

I'm currently a financial software consultant. I travel around the US to our client institutions and help configure software to comply with the new Check 21 law. I've worked with financial institution fraud protection, including kiting (which will soon be obsolete, given the future absence of float).

I graduated with an MIS degree and dwelled on project management, capacity management, logistics, scheduling, and implementation.

My desire is to continue to travel. I currently travel M-F a couple times a month. I would ultimately love to have a position where I would just travel for a couple days several times a month.

I would love to consult and find better solutions for customers. Basically, I'd like to take more advantage of the capacity management portion of my studies. The way my brain works, I'm always thinking of better ways to do things and love to solve problems to get to that point. I'm definitely willing to learn new things. I don't see myself in the financial institution industry for too much longer. But I'd really like to help people make whatever they're doing much better. If I had the proper experience, I'd love to help people book trips (not really a travel agent, maybe a travel consultant?). But there are several things out there that I would really enjoy doing.

That's just a generalization of what I'd love to do. I have my resume and all that jazz. I just hope someone would give me a chance.

Our company, a $1B, publicly traded computer services firm, is growing and is looking to fill a number of sales and technical roles. Click here to navigate to a list of open positions.

Many of these positions are geography agnostic, meaning that depending on the role you may not have to relocate. Almost all require some to extensive travel.

You're welcome to PM resumes and interest to me, or of course to apply directly (though that won't be nearly as effective). Full disclosure: a few of the positions, depending on exactly what they are, carry a referral bonus. Most do not.
