AND NOW FOR THE REAL KICKER ...
Compensation: $10 per Hour
· Yes, you read that right ... 10 bucks an hour for an educated, experienced marketing specialist with proven experience and tons of software knowledge. Please tell me ... have I gone into the time machine and wound up in 1960???
Can you believe this?? They want someone who can design marketing programs, plan and execute events, and perform market research and analysis for $10 an hour.
As I've said repeatedly ... gimme a break people - get a clue. This is 2010 we are talking about. An education alone costs $200,000. At $10 an hour, the employee will be dead before he/she has earned enough to recoup their investment in education.
Okay, let's get real here. That much experience and expertise should pay no less than $20 per hour and probably more because of the extensive knowledge base the organization is requiring.
For all you marketing majors out there ... good luck. If this is what I'm finding, you've got a long road ahead of you.
Oh well, better me than you!!
