From: "Lee Stogner" Date: July 28, 2008 9:36:42 AM CDT To: "Region 3 Excom 2008" , "Region 3 Section Chairs" , "Region 3 MD Chairs" , "IEEE SC Council" Subject: [Region 3] Director Elect Report - July 28, 2008 Region 3,   The economy continues to shed people at all levels.  To support Region 3 members in case they need to make a career change, we have created a Region 3 Employment Assistance web page at,   www.ieee.org/r3jobs   This web page has career information and a growing base of links to information that can help you write a resume, prepare for an interview and find job openings.  If you are not aware of potential companies in your area or an area that you would like to move to, the web site has a Company Directory download.  To use this feature, enter your geographic query into the online form.  The company directory will then be emailed to you within 24 hours.  We can provide more company detail with a focused request such as a city, county or zip code.  Please don't ask for an entire state.   We're making additional updates to the site this week.  Please let me know of any additions you would like to see especially in the "Area" job link pages.   We also have a dedicated resource for working one-on-one with members.  His name is Carl Hussey and can be reached at,   c.hussey@ieee.org   Carl is the Region 3 Representative to the IEEE-USA Career & Employment Assistance Committee and can detail a full range of employment support for IEEE members.   The best way to find a new job is through "networking".  Please be aware of what jobs are open within your company and bring that list to the next Section meeting.  Remember, the person you help this year can help you in the years to come.   Thanks,   Lee Stogner,  PMP Mobile   864-360-9415 Email    l.stogner@ieee.org   Region 3 Director Elect  2008 - 2009   Chair,  South Carolina Enginering Cluster www.southcarolinaengineering.org
