Surprise Appearance

We originally didn't expect to have a post today, but we got several nice direct-to-us submissions that we didn't want to wait on until we fully return to operation late this week or next week.  Enjoy.

Also, don't forget to scroll back for yesterday's short run of previously noted opportunities closing this week. 

USAID (through Apprio Inc.) is hiring for a new Press Lead to support its U.S. Global Development Lab. They are looking for a communications professional who has 4-6 years of experience working with the media, who is comfortable building relationships both internally and externally, and who is psyched to help tell stories like these. [note: while the comment field alerted us to a possible link malfunction, we've been further told that needed to post it in that fashion, but they'll be looking for people with media/external communications skills – so our suggestion would be that you apply for job as posted, but also highlight any media relations/communications/PR background.  Hope that helps].

Residential & retail developer/operator EDENS is looking for a Communications Director with 10-15 years of relevant experience – local properties (of their dozens nationwide) include Union Market, the Mosaic District, and this coming-soon-in-North-Old-Town development.

Squared Communications seeks full-time & well-organized PR Intern with strong written & verbal communication skills – $11/hr – Union Station area – January start date preferred.

… and finally: Kimberly Clark passed along their Welcome Original Thinkers recruitment campaign, which features a multi-choice personality quiz.   It’s quick, well-conceived and fun, and in their words, will help prospective employees learn what kind of thinkers they are, what kind of jobs they'd best fit; here’s some more info as to what they’re up to.  And, after we took the quiz (we’re Analyzers here, it appears), we searched through jobs with KC and turned up these recent communications-related opportunities:

• Global Corporate Social Responsibility Communications Consultant – Dallas, TX
• Communications Consultant, Sustainability – Dallas, TX or Roswell, GA

It Must Be the Office Holiday Parties

We have a comparatively light haul of previously noted opportunities closing in the upcoming week; our theory is that HR folks around town are girding for the potential mischief & mayhem that occasionally occurs at the annual office holiday fête – and here's some solid advice for your own seasonal party regimen.  Also please note: we will have a new post tomorrow, after all.
