Changes In Life

A new day…new month.. how about new me?  Well this is one of my another random rambling, might not make sense but as time passes by and when I look back the time line I’ll cherish the achievements over years. I hope I stick to my plans and actions.

A change that I’ve been awaiting…! Oh well, as long as there is a time.. there is always a change. But beware.. a time once lost cannot be regained again. Use your opportunity and let success be yours.

And if this post didn’t make you think I was crazy, you should also look at my recent tumblr post. When are you going to Change?

My New SEO Job at Juretic Media – Search Engine Optimiser

What a great way to start a month with a confirmation on your Job Offer! Yeap, I am very glad to announce through my blog that I have been recruited as Search Engine Optimiser at Juretic Media.

Established in 2001, Juretic Media is an Internet Marketing Agency based in the centre of Brighton. It’s a great place to live and work, with the sea just a stone’s throw from the office. Brighton is the silicon beach of the UK and has attracted a whole host of amazing and successful media companies. It’s a great place to keep your finger on the pulse of the latest technologies and web trends.

It’s been a great and to be precise the best experience I had through my interview process, people following me over this blog would have known about my previous experience here, here and here. Juretic Media is par excellence in recruitment process and I had spent quality time from day 1 since when I met Mr. Neven Juretic (Director, Juretic Media).

To wrap things simpler, applied for this position after receiving an RSS Alert from Wired Sussex on July 20th 2008, to my surprise I got an response the very next day (which doesn’t happen or never happens with most other companies) with a kind response requesting my availability on Tuesday (23.08.2008) and as any enthusiastic candidate would do, I confirmed mine very soon after receiving the email.

The interesting twist here was, Juretic Media were looking out candidates with Commercial Experience, and my CV carried no information on my experience over SEO/M and the email I had received also explained me about it and the reason they were interested was because of my CV and Websites (URL’s in CV!) , which they reviewed (and found interesting) and invited me for an interview.
