Get a career in connected entertainment at Microsoft
Just when you thought Microsoft was ‘uncool’ and jobs are as rare as a pink elephant, they step up and create a new social networking recruiting website called Microsoft Entertainment Jobs. If you’ve always wanted to work on the Xbox, Zune, Media Center or other entertainment products and divisions at Microsoft, this is the website to be at. As Todd Bishop pointed out some of the profile features at the website.
The recruiters’ profile pages feature their pictures, a favorite video, the available positions for which they’re recruiting, and links to their profiles or feeds on such sites as Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. The Microsoft site also has a built-in feature that people can use to tell their friends about available jobs using social-networking sites and other online tools.
Microsoft has actually aimed to provide a cool, friendly and easy to reach image with M.E.J. Even though candidates might not find jobs right away, it’ll keep them connected with each other and give them a chance to interact with the recruiters. It also gives Microsoft a chance to have an additional talent pool available at their service for whenever they need it. This website isn’t just the only way through which Microsoft is trying to give a positive vibe, despite the economic crisis.
