I need to hire some writers/editors for my brand-spanking new blog. I’m looking for top talent. What’s the best source for hiring? Thanks!

Thankyou Jodee!

P.S. I’ve always been the perfect child. That’s why my parents are so eager to kick me out to see the world… right?

@Elizabeth – We talked about why people flag jobs before and there are people who admitted to flagging jobs they don’t approve of – they feel the pay is too low. Though I used to be quite vocal regarding really low payers, now I’m more of the belief that if you don’t like something you should just move along. I’m not the Craigslist judge and jury.

Also if anyone here has posted a job on Craigslist and wishes to repost it here, just let me or Jodee know and we’ll be happy to put it up for you.

@ Maryam: There may be 190 applicants, but if you don’t apply you have no chance of getting the gig. Just focus on presenting yourself in the best possible way and don’t let the fact that other people may have applied bother you. Someone is going to get the job and it could be you! (Sending some positive thoughts your way….)

@ Jenny B: You are most welcome. It’s very kind of you to take the time to thank me. It really does mean a lot.

i am glad people find so many good gigs, that’s awesome!
I just found out that oen blog i applied for had 190 applicants! Eghads, the odds are they won’t pick me that’s pretty intimidating!

I would love to write children’s books, that one about multicultural stuff seems right up my alley we shall see…
