Initiate Randomization Sequence

For your Tuesday specialty programming, we eschew the usual cocktail of search engines and job boards that normally generate most of our listings, and instead rely exclusively on picking a week's worth of posts from more than a year ago and re-searching those particular employers for fresh opportunities. Some of these jobs may indeed also show up on the most popular search engines and public affairs job boards; but that's not how we found 'em. We like to think this approach turns up some opportunities you might have otherwise missed, along with spiking the job search process with a little bit of chance, kismet & chaos.
