Ok, I know it is a holiday week so people are cruising at half speed, but there is no room for some errors.  Spelling mistakes in the title is inexcusable.  The title is the only information that is displayed on most job boards so you can see the significance of this mistake.

The position’s title:

Egineer – Mulitple Positions

Honestly, I am embarrassed for the company.

Ok, there are plenty of college football games to digest this holiday week so why not try something different on New Year’s Day?  We here at The Hire Sense are huge hockey fans and all of our sons play in our local association and high school program.

The NHL is a second-tier (at best) league in the US, but they are fairly progressive in their approach to marketing their league.  Online Media Daily has an article titled NHL’s ‘Winter Classic’ Coverage to Include Historic Broadband Firsts.

In case you haven’t heard, the NHL will have an outdoor game on Jan. 1 from Buffalo, NY.  I love this idea (they held an outdoor game in Edmonton a few years ago).  Their tie-in to the Internet is well-constructed:

For the first time, the NHL is creating two live broadband shows, which will be available exclusively on NHL.com.

The first program will be a live preview show from the XM Radio Studio within the NHL Powered by Reebok store in Manhattan. Hosts Don La Greca and E.J. Hradek will cover topics such as outdoor games of years past, game analysis and the decision process behind the AMP Energy NHL Winter Classic.

The second show, hosted by Bill Clement and Sam Rosen, will broadcast live from Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo, and will attempt to capture the experience of being on-site at the event, giving a behind-the-scenes look at creating an outdoor ice rink.

Buffalo natives William Fichtner of the Fox television series “Prison Break” and Chad Michael Murray, star of The CW’s “One Tree Hill,” are scheduled to participate in the NHL.com’s blogging community.

Smart, very smart, by the NHL to go to these lengths.  If you are tired of college football that day, click over to NBC and watch some of the coolest game on Earth…outdoors.
