Linking The Laid Off On BlitzTime

Will work together to help people find their next job and their next opportunity - one conversation at a time.

The partnership's first significant effort is a 24 hour marathon of conversations and micro-interviews called "Linking The Laid Off on BlitzTime". The marathon is scheduled to start at 12:00 AM and run to 11:59pm on April 15, 2009.

"Linking The Laid Off on BlitzTime" is a 24 hour online event designed with one purpose in mind: Helping the laid off find jobs already available in the American economy.

Specifically, our precise mission is to help 100 people find a job in ONE DAY.

We intend to do this by devoting 24 full hours to generating 1,000+ 6 minute long conversations/interviews focusing on 18 specific cities stretching from Boston to Honolulu and from Miami to Anchorage.

Daunting? Perhaps.

As well-connected, entrepreneurial networkers and professional recruiters, the leaders of these four web sites believe "Linking The Laid Off On BlitzTime" is the perfect platform to share already existing job opportunities with people who are looking for work.

Everyone knows that there are a host of open job positions out there. Every day laid off people hear about these openings from friends, colleagues and family. Most of the time these open positions are not "the right fit" for the person hearing about them, and many of these positions are not even suitable for professionals.

"Linking The Laid Off on BlitzTime" is like a Pink Slip Party merged with a Job Fair. The event connects laid off people in as many as 10 personal, one-on-one conversations that let them share these hidden opportunities with each other. As an added bonus, some participants will be also connected with employers or recruiters who have open positions just right for them.
