Job

Hello everyone,

I want to thank everyone for responding so articulately in regards to the ad. 7 people responded to the message put out on Craigslist. I did have in mind one position to help me with the work...I didn't anticipate so many people responding.

I know that a team atmosphere is much more fun and at the heart of the idea is a teambuilding system so it makes sense to make a team. There is plenty of work to be done so that is not an issue.

I have done a few online research projects before and it can be quite interesting to see what can happen. Because we are all in Vancouver we can incorporate both online and offline aspects....At the beginning though, most of the work will be online.

I have learned to take things a step at a time because there is much to learn and one of my conversational patterns has been to give too much information too quickly.

So we will proceed in Missions....and these missions break down into assignments.....when you complete the assignment you go to the next assignment. When all assignments are completed you completed the mission and go onto the next mission. How does this sound to you?

I know you have many questions and all will be answered over time. The first assignment is to create a communication forum and platform to get the assignments and have a place to learn, create and communicate together.

Some of you might drop out, others may come on board but essentially as long as you do the work you can stay in the project. The only thing I really stick to is participation. All work assignments are negotiable but you have to participate. It's not good for you, the team, or me to have people that are not really interested in what is going on. Its best to take your leave. But I ask you one thing...if you are going to drop out...you don't do so by not communicating...Communicate to the group that you are leaving and why you are doing so.

This is a research project and it is a research project in regards to how to do the research process itself. It will be quite different I am sure to what you are use to. It may press you. It may challenge you. I can guarantee you this will be a rich experience, good for the resume, and there are many future potentialities in regards to your career if you so choose.

I know there is not a lot of information about what you will be doing here but that will come...I am going to invite you all to a Wiki...the New Paradigm Toolkit Research Lab....which is quite dormant right now but that will change quickly with you involved. You can look around but don't take it as ready for action....we have much to fill in....

I will set up the space for this team to work in.....so you will be getting an email soon that will be an invitation to the lab.....

Welcome all of you....you responded to the call...let's see how amazing we can make this together.


This is an email I received from somebody advertised for a research assistant in writing a book on success!
I don't know what will happen.

I also received a response from another position as a media and communication assistant to go for interview. It's just 3-4 days I am searching for job!
Isn't it good?!
