[jsfg_cinti] Attention please! - Procedure for responding to Job Postings

Dear JSFG E-mail Mailing List Subscribers:
We hope that you find the JSFG E-mail Mailing List to be a valuable resource.  
We believe that the information posted here is useful to individuals involved 
in a job search, especially the Job Postings.  

Let me remind you of an important aspect of the Job Posting which is, 
specifically, the "How Should Candidate Apply?" part of the Job Posting.  It is 
very important that you follow the employers directions on how to apply for the 
job.  

To do otherwise eliminates you from consideration for the job (after all, no 
employer will hire someone who cannot follow simple instructions) and sullies 
the reputation of the JSFG and its members.

So, for example, if the employer indicates in the Job Posting that applicants 
should apply by mail (and only by mail) then you must apply only by mail.  Do 
not telephone or e-mail or FAX or personally visit the employer even if that 
kind of contact information is included in the Job Posting.

We recently had a situation where a JSFG member ignored the instructions 
contained in the Job Posting and called the potential employer on the telephone 
even though the Job posting clearly directed applicants to respond only by 
mail.  

Naturally, that JSFG member will not be hired for the job.  And the employer 
was very upset with the JSFG over this faux pas committed by one of our 
members.  This may cause them to stop posting job opportunities on the JSFG 
E-mail Mailing List.  If so, that will hurt all JSFG members.

In summary, please apply for the jobs posted to the JSFG E-mail Mailing List 
only by the method identified in the "How Should Candidate Apply?" portion of 
the Job Posting.

Have a great day!

Regards,
Lance Feldman
JSFG Computer Committee Chairman
