British Mug Scarcely believable job ad prices; Digital Britain; latest jobs; and do marketers hate Twitter?

 

Hello, thanks for tipping by. We’ve 13,571 UK marketers pitching up for tea and cakes this afternoon so please, come on in. Some of us are in the kitchen, others on the terrace, whilst in the Lounge clever folk are chatting about this:

 

Are you recruiting?

Until Friday at 5pm we are offering 28-day featured listings (worth £295) for just £100!  To claim yours, call us on 08452 011 552 or go ahead and create a recruiter account now!

 

In the Marketing Lounge this week…

Tony Coll casts this one out: “With big budget cuts looming, should your public sector clients wait meekly for the axe to fall or take pre-emptive action to fight their corner? If so, what strategy do you advise?”  Read and discuss.

David Bernstein reflects on the current UK jobs market and asks simply: “How are you finding it at the moment?”  Read and discuss.

Jonathan Hughes’ freelancer conundrum has already blown a gust, but there’s plenty of mileage in this one: “If you are currently unemployed do you wait for a secure job or take the plunge and work for yourself?”  Read and discuss.

If you’re digitally-focussed get in on Jessica Wilson’s act as she muses: “What can we expect from Web 3.0?”  This is one for the clever folk.  Read and discuss.

And finally…

Myriam Da Costa has posted that ever-revolving subject about getting a marketing job. She’s stuck in application quick-sand – can you help pull her out?

In the marketing blog right now…

Are you following the Digital Britain governmental initiatives?  Here’s the latest proposal update.

Had enough of Twitter yet?  Watch the amusing day-in-the-life video “How Twitter ruined my life”.

If you are a jobseeker or recruiter (or just interested in the hiring process), there are 13 UK recruitment blogs you should be following.

We’re all off to David’s house to give him our full support. We’d have gone to Gordon’s but with £10m less in his campaign coffers, we’re not convinced he’ll pay for lunch. And having cycled 21.4 miles to Westminster, we’ll need more than a ham sandwich, thank you very much. Minister.
