The power of Craigslist!

I didn't have any time to "blog" this week as we were reviewing over 300 responses to our Craigslist posting for a Part-Time, Seasonal "administrator".  I've used Craigslist in the past to look over resumes that people have posted -- and found two fantastic support folks,  Beth Lipski and Larinda Ives.  I decided to be "proactive" this time and list the type of person we were looking for.

Posted the listing Saturday afternoon and by Sunday morning I was already swamped.  Monday turned into a scene from "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" where Mickey Mouse kept trying to keep up with the water buckets!  Deleted the posting Monday afternoon as it became apparent that there was LOTS of talented people looking for this type of job.

To the many people who responsed, I am sorry that we are not able to get back to each of you individually.  At this time of the year, we need to be totally focused on organizing coat drives, matching stores and sites with agencies, reaching out to learn about agencies who can distribute coats, etc. 

We are so pleased to welcome Maureen Murphy as "Agency Coordinator" to our team.  Maureen is a Domestic Engineer (yes, she had that listing on her resume -- I loved it!) in the Bay Area with an MBA from Clemson University. 

Stay tuned for news on our activites -- we have some amazing partners coming up in the new few months.
