Topic: We are looking for an Executive Recruiter/Talent Scout: on to fill on our team. As a national leader in marketing communications, we've been named the best place to work—and we're at the very top of our game. Are you at the top of yours? Because to get where we’re going we need a superstar Talent Scout/Executive Recruiter to help us find the very best prospective talent for the McMurry team. This position is based out of our home office in Phoenix, Arizona. Your focus will be on identifying the best people in the field of marketing communications, getting to know these people, building relationships with them, and making them aware of McMurry. This is not typical corporate requisition-based recruiting. Rather, you would function like a talent scout does in the sports industry, but in the field of marketing instead of sports; searching out and cultivating relationships even though you may not be in a position to hire at the moment. You would also at times work like an executive headhunter, performing research, lead generation, direct sourcing and extensive networking in order to locate the best people. As someone who is skilled in understanding people, you can get to know people in informal settings that do not include job interviews, and pre-qualify them for possible future opportunities. Ideally, you understand the field of marketing communications so you can speak the language and understand the mind-set. Since you are tech-savvy, you will be able to build a database of contacts that you can engage through your marketing efforts. As a strategic, creative thinker, you will identify ways to position and promote McMurry within the advertising, marketing, and publishing communities. You’re persuasive, can get anyone on the phone, love working a room, and you never met a stranger. Postings, resume reviews and formal job interviews are not usually part of your responsibilities. Your degree is in marketing, advertising, communications, psychology, or business; and you are a seasoned professional with at least five years of experience. Is this you? If so, we’d love to hear from you. The right person will enjoy generous compensation, strong benefits, and the excitement that comes with achieving unsurpassed professional success. If you’re looking for a career move with no ceiling above you and lots of support around you, this is the one. All responses will be treated with the utmost in confidentiality and discretion.

Topic: How to Develop Strong Thesis Writing Skills: ievement. The ability to convey ideas and to describe something convincingly serves a writer well in any kind of document. There are certain organizing strategies, which can help to organize thinking and to put one's ideas easy to follow and clear in understanding (Wilson, 2006). Almost every assignment, no matter how complex, can be reduced to a solitary question. Your initial step, then, is to condense the assignment into a precise question. For instance, if your assignment is, “Write an account to the local school board explaining the possible benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade group,” turn the demand into a query like, “What are the probable advantages of exercising computers in a fourth-grade class?” After you’ve selected the question your thesis will respond, make up one or two entire sentences responding that query. To improve the writing skills is to recognize the standard writing structures in English. Writing is a sophisticated art and to convey your idea and thoughts to other it is necessary to follow certain rules and standards. These standards include grammar, the overall structure of writing, paragraphing and coherence. Grammar is perhaps the most important and essential factor behind any document, a correct, clear and simple grammar not only necessary but also makes the document easy to understand for the readers. It is important that a writer should be well equipped with English grammar and sentence structuring. To define the general topic, issue, or area of concern, thus providing an appropriate context of the document. Pointing out overall trends is what outlining is, this process basically covers the basic structure of any written material. Outlining comprises of three parts, the introduction, body and conclusion (Wilson, 2006). The Introduction present relevant background or contextual material, it defines terns or concepts and explains the focus of the paper and its specific purpose. The body provides the reader with strong "umbrella" sentences, the preciseness of a paper or document is determined from the insights put in the body. The conclusion sums up the meaning of the piece or points, it gives a reader clear perspective on what they have just read. The most important thing to remember is that your job as a writer is to convince people in a coherent way about an issue. A writer must describe the subject of the essay/article/paper in some detail according to he/she thinks the reader should know. In case of an essay or a paper a writer must assert himself by making a definitive judgement. This judgement ought to be the author's thesis sentence. The other entire paragraph should seek to prove the thesis. A thesis statement tells us readers how the author will interpret the significance of the subject matter under discussion. Such a statement is called an argument, or the main idea. Observe that a thesis is an explanation of a subject not the subject matter itself (Wilson, 2006). The Subject might be 'gun control' or 'Attack on Iraq'; a thesis must then offer a way to understand the war or an issue that other might dispute. A strong thesis not only grasps the interest of the reader, it also provides the focus of your argument, one to which every part of your paper refers in the development of your position.
