March Recruitment Month

I am exhausted! I'm now working 2 departments, having a lot of fun and staying busy at work. Going to go over points in bullet form.

* Tonight's meeting is canceled- everyone has a scheduling conflict :)
I'd like to have one for March discussing recruitment, please email if you have any suggestions/days and times that (don't) work well for you or places we should meet.

* Posters are DONE and being hung, thanks to Bethany for getting us the approval and HUGE thanks to Emily in the reception team for putting them up! I modified each poster so they would include the Invitrogen logo (so people would know it's a company event) as well as the local contact (moi) and website streamers.... because really- who's going to remember my name or the blogspot address? :) Hoping for a few bites from interested folks.

* I am still working on friends and family to help out with the team. Kyia has 2 family members interested and together they've raised $135!! Way to go KYIA!!!!

* Created an email list: relayivgneugene@yahoogroups.com so our group can stay in contact. All pertinent information will now be emailed as well as logged on this blog. To join, if you haven't yet gotten an invitation, just go to : http://groups.yahoo.com/group/relayivgneugene

* Some interested parties haven't yet "officially" signed up. The walk is months away, but we're behind our ideal in fundraising. Please sign up as soon as possible. Right now we're just working on individual fundraising, we'll work on group fundraisers starting in April.

*The meeting Wednesday went splendidly. I was not able to attend so Bethany went and picked up useful information and ideas for our team. She was also able to suggest a better tent site behind the main stage. It's a little quieter, but still right on the track for easy access.
Way to go BETHANY!!!

*I'll see about getting more promo items: pins, pens, and teammate information. Hoping to be able to run over tomorrow on my lunch break.

Ttfn! Hope you and yours are doing well and I hope to hear from everyone soon!

Sorry- I'm not in charge of H.R. or hiring. You can see available positions on Invitrogen.com:

http://www.invitrogen.com/content.cfm?pageid=10468
Has the job listings.
You can submit your profile and apply for open positions online.

It's well worth persuing- it's a great company to work for!

The walk is in July, if you want to walk with us great, if not that's okay too. We do have non-employees on our team walking with us :)

Good luck with your team!
