Employment Committee Manager

Committee affiliation: Employment

Responsibilities

The Employment Committee maintains job announcements and talent pool Web pages for Washington, DC - Metro Baltimore Chapter members and potential employers. Members who are looking for work may contribute copies of their resume to the resume bank. Committee members participate in developing the Salary Survey and assist in publishing the results of the survey. The Employment Committee also provides members with informal "career counseling" and helps potential employers identify their needs. This personal touch makes the Employment Committee a powerful advertising tool for both the Washington, DC - Metro Baltimore Chapter and the field of technical communication itself.

For more information, see the Employment / Career Resources page or contact the Washington, DC - Metro Baltimore Chapter Employment Committee Manager.

The Education Committee manager does the following specific tasks:

  • In June or July, develop a budget for planned projects for the year ahead (a sample budget is available).
  • Guide members of the committee so that all committee duties are fulfilled.
  • Develop and distribute a contact list of committee members and their roles.
  • Respond to inquiries about employment.
  • Review Employment Web pages and provide input when needed.
  • Conduct a chapter salary survey every two to three years.
  • Help arrange a Career Day event.
  • Provide input for the Employment Booth at the annual conference as needed.
  • Submit a monthly status report by e-mail to the President and Vice-President (or post to the Admin Council Group's monthly status reports files) regarding all current and upcoming committee activities.
