Job Opening: Copywriter

An unnamed agency in Coeur d’Alene has an opening for an experienced Copywriter.  From the craigslist job listing:

Experienced copywriter needed for ultra-busy Coeur d’Alene advertising agency. Please note the word “experienced” as this is not for the untested. If you haven’t cranked out incredibly creative copy in the heat of battle, don’t apply. We’re looking for a cool head, a quick wit, and a resourceful get-it-friggin-done demeanor. We’ll surround you with support. This is not a technical writing position. We need talent combined with the mind of a marketer. Please send a resume and recent samples.

Contact information and how to apply can be found on the original post.

A Familiar Face in a New Place

While catching up on some neglected feed-reading over the past few days, I was surprised by an entry on Rizen Creative’s blog: Welcome, Jason.

And now, for the abridged version:

Jason Hamilton has left Fuel3, and is now with Rizen Creative.  While their blog post was not clear as to what Jason’s role is within the agency, I’m sure that he’ll be a great addition to their team.
