Beyond writing about a new company and its entry level jobs every day, there’s a lot of behind the scenes work that I have to do to continue One Day, One Job’s growth. A huge portion of that work falls under the categories of internet marketing and search engine optimization. Maybe I’m biased because I’m doing the stuff every day, but I think that being able to understand and implement internet marketing concepts will be essential in many of the career paths that today’s new college grads take. If you want to set yourself up with the internet marketing skills that aren’t being taught in most undergraduate curriculums, you should consider a first job at a place like HubSpot, a Cambridge, MA based internet marketing startup.

We first came across Tocquigny when were featuring another Austin, TX based company on One Day, One Internship. We thought that Pierpont, a PR firm, had cool internships and a cool office. We were right about the internships, but it turned out that the office in Pierpont’s Flickr stream was actually Tocquigny’s (here are more pictures of their office). An ultra cool office is enough to get us excited, but we’re also impressed to see that Tocquigny was named the #2 Interactive Agency by BtoB Magazine. If you’re looking to break into advertising, interactive agencies are a good way to go. New media is becoming more and more dominant as old media dies a slow, painful death. We’re not saying that the traditional ad agencies are going anywhere, but new college grads have a much better chance of landing a job and building the foundation for a successful career by becoming familiar with the interactive side of advertising.

If you haven’t realized it yet, we’re big fans of social media. Twitter, Youtube, Blogs, etc. The better a company’s recruiting social media profile, the more likely we are to take notice of their jobs and write about them. We first found out about ZURB through one of their employees’ tweets on Twitter. We were impressed to see that they’re also blogging, Youtubing, and StandoutJobbing. What’s Standout Jobs? It’s a company that’s bringing Corporate Careers sites into the Web 2.0 world. Here’s ZURB on Standout Jobs. Before you go diving into ZURB’s social media profiles, you’ll probably want to know what they’re all about. ZURB “helps companies design better web sites, services, and products online.” They do so by helping other companies with user interface (UI) design, product strategy, identity design, SEO and SEM, team building, visual design, and grassroots un-marketing.

The word “faction” usually insinuates dissension, discord, or disagreement. We hope that Faction Media media chose their name because they are dissenting from the norm in the marketing solutions that they offer their clients, not because of a factious office political climate. Faction Media’s focus is on “business-to-business digital marketing with measurable ROI.” They do so through services such as strategic planning, digital marketing, search engine marketing, interactive development, systems integration, analytics and insight, media buying and planning, and content development. They sound like an interesting company, and they are hiring at the entry-level, so let’s take a look. Continue reading about Faction Media…
There’s no doubt about it. Traditional media is dead. Even the stodgiest newspapers and magazines have been forced to go online. Television stations can’t thrive without a web presence. That means jobs in traditional media are dead too. We understand that some of you still aren’t trusting of jobs at Internet companies and that you want the “safety” of a well established company. That’s setting yourself up for failure. Sorry to be so blunt, but to paraphrase Seth Godin, every day you spend in a traditional media job is a day that the skills that you are building become less valuable. If you’re looking for jobs at a major media company with a proven track record, why not take a look at CNET Networks? Continue reading about CNET Networks…
Today, I saw on Twitter that recruiting Blogger and HR SEO extraordinaire, Joel Cheesman, is looking to add a journalist to the Cheezhead team. Yes, we’ve found a new job searching tool here at One Day, One Job. It’s not the most practical thing for college students to use, but we’ve already found a few internships and entry-level job opportunities in a week of use. In case you don’t know, Twitter is a social networking site / time waster that is best explained to college students as a combination of Facebook’s status updates and walls. All messages have to be 140 characters or less, and there’s not much more to it. Finally, the networking part of social networking is paying off! If you use Twitter, you can follow me here.
