Yes, it is much cooler down here than Brisbane, but it's nowhere near as cold as everyone made out. I'm only wearing one jumper at the moment.... I'm still providing some web space, and I'm happy to keep providing that until I need the space myself. Here's a few things I was hoping to do with the list, but never found the time: * Talk with all my contacts in Brisbane recruitment agencies about sending tech comms jobs to the list. I have been approached by different recruiters at different times, and they have been interested in getting contacts from me. Why should they go through that process when the list will do all(some) of the work for them? * Pass the list address to the HR departments of everyone on the list. My old HR department at ADC was always having trouble finding tech writers to jobs. * Inform southern recruitment agencies about the list, as they often advertise jobs in our area. Just a few thoughts Cheers, Geoff ********************************************************** To unsubscribe from astcq-discuss, send a message to astcq-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field.
