NEW: Job Wanted board -- SM - Moderator


Posted: May 03, 2010

We now have a Job Wanted board available.  This is a board for you to make confidential posts that list what you are looking for in your job search. 

There are many ways to use the Job Wanted board.  There are also safe practices you, as posters, should take for professional security.

Posters responding to your job-wanted ad can be recruiters, facilities, any business wanting to respond to you.  Other fellow posters (MTs) can also make suggestions about companies to apply to that offer some or all of the opportunities you list in your ad. 

It is very important to understand that a job-wanted post allows others to contact you via email.  No individual or business contacting you through this board will see or know your email address by using the contact options.  Once you receive an email, if you choose to respond to then you choose to expose your email address and any identity or information you provide (both in your ad and in your email correspondence, etc.) to that person/business.  Make sure you know who you are responding to before doing so.  You alone take the responsibility for such interaction. 

There is a name field available that allows up to 25 characters.  Our suggestion is that you only put a first name or a nickname but not your full name.  Any person and/or business in the world can read what you post - including your name.  Make sure you do not expose your identity unless you feel completely comfortable with such. 

Use the password feature.  Enter a password you can remember so that you can edit or delete your own ad if you choose to. 

You agree to accept emails by posting on the Job Wanted board; however, you do not have to respond to those emails.  If you have a harrassing or objectionable email, please forward it to the Moderator (cher@mtstars.com).  Just be aware that just because you do not want that particular email does not make it harrassing - you agree to receive emails by posting here. 

Our advice would be to create a specific email address to do your job searching through. 

Posters who want to make suggestions on where you can get the line rate you are looking for, the worktypes, the schedule, the status, etc., that you list can do so by using the contact option.

Be creative with the headline/subject field.  It allows up to 50 characters.  You want to make your job-wanted ad to stand out.

The job-wanted board is for temporary (30 days) and/or additional job searching.  The resume board will remain in full use.  If you need/want to post your resume for potential employers to peruse for longer than 30 days, make sure you keep your resume in the resume bank. 

The Job Wanted board simply provides ways for you to state clearly what you are looking for and others (other posters/MTs, MTSOs, recruiters, etc.) to be able to respond with suggestions, direction, interest, offers, etc. 

If you have any questions, please notify the Moderator.

Something Noticed On The Job Wanted Board,
May 04, 2010

your job-hunting results.  There are a lot of people with 10-20+ years' experience seeking work.  I'm in the same boat.  My experience so far has been that NOBODY is interested in hiring older, highly-experienced MTs.  Any of you starting to feel that vibe? So I'd be interested to know what sort of results you get from the Jobs Wanted board.  When you truthfully state your many years of experience, are you getting any offers?  Are they willing to com ...

Moderator: Will We Still Be Getting A 'jobs Wanted' Board, And
Nov 05, 2009

is there a way to fix the search feature to where you can search for short terms?  Right now, it won't let you search for terms like 'QA' or 'MDI' etc. because they're too short.  It also limits you to one page of results.  The Google search box we used to have worked much better.  TIA. ...

Wanted To Go PT
Jun 04, 2013

My plan was to retire PT and work PT, however, I was told MModal is no longer allowing employees to go PT only if you are grandfathered in.  Yet, today I see on MTJobs MModal is looking for PT workers.  If I do not go PT, I will lose quite a bit of money monthly from SS retirement.  I also was told we are only allowed to take 3 sick days a year.   ...
