This week we visit Second Life to attend TMP's first UK virtual careers fair. We're walked around TMP's UK Island by Phil Owers, TMP Deputy MD, and speak to some job seekers about their…

The Republican Party never felt right even when I was 10 (about the time I decided on what I was). I would rate my ethics high, which means I could not be a part of anything that took from others, destroyed land or resources for my own profit, and put myself above anything or anyone else.
