Project Get Mark a Job
Oct. 11th, 2011 12:22 pmThe nice fellow who helps me with this website, Mark, is about to lose his job. His entire branch office is being closed. I could talk about how many times his employers have pulled a tactic like this because they want to make more money, but I'll be doing an Occupy Wall Street post soon, so later on that.
Mark still needs a job.
Mark has been applying like mad in the Cedar Rapids-Iowa City corridor area, because the writing's been on the wall for a while. He would prefer to stay in the area, but now he understands that he may need to cast his net a little wider.
This is where you come in. If you know of any computer guy type job, just let me know where the information is, and whom to apply to, and I'll make sure Mark gets it.
Here are Mark's skills particularly:
"My work experience has been pretty exclusively in IT. Specifically I've worked as Tech Support, Software Tester and a Data Analyst. I'm familiar with working on multiple OSes (WinXP, Windows 2000, Ubuntu Linux, CentOS). In my last 2 jobs, I've worked a lot with SQL; primarily MySQL though I've also worked with Microsoft SQL Server 2000."
Mark has had experience with the following languages: Python, PHP, HTML, XML, CSS and SQL. He's a smart guy. He can learn new ones.
No lead is too far away. I figure I know so many people, some of you have got to have leads. I've already had one just from asking an internet friend. If you know of any particularly good tech job sites, send that information along as well.
And thank you.
Catherine
