What’s more fun than a playground? Nothing. That’s why you should work for KaBOOM! - a non-profit organization that envisions a great place to play within walking distance of every child in the USA. Darell Hammond started KaBOOM! in 1995 with its first community playground build after he read about two children who suffocated while playing in an abandoned car in Washington, D.C. He wanted to make sure that a tragedy like that would never happen again. Today KaBOOM! is building hundreds of play places every year and giving children – especially those in low-income, urban neighborhoods – safe places to have fun.

Say you and your college roommate are having a disagreement over whether Uncle Jesse from Full House’s last name was Cochran or Katsopolis. 10 years ago, resolving such an important dispute would require either endless hours of watching Full House reruns or the consultation of an astutely knowledgeable third party – maybe your brother who has no job and watches tv on the couch all day. Today a quick Google or Wikipedia search can resolve the dispute (the answer is both – John Stamos asked that his character’s name be changed after the first season from Cochran to Katsopolis to represent his Greek heritage).
When businesses, legislatures, arbitration panels, and regulatory boards have important disputes like your hypothetical dispute above, they can’t just use Google to find the expert opinions and advice that they need. LECG is a firm that provides experts in a wide variety of fields. LECG’s experts provide independent expert testimony and analysis, original authoritative studies, and strategic consulting services to a list of clients that includes Fortune Global 500 corporations, major law firms, and local, state, and federal governments and agencies.

Did you know that eating wild salmon is the best way to save wild salmon? It seems counterintuitive, but that’s the word that Save Our Wild Salmon is trying to spread. Their goal is to restore sustainable runs of Pacific salmon with a focus on the Columbia-Snake River Basin. Unfortunately, there is a lot more action needed to save our wild runs of King, Coho, and Sockeye Salmon and Steelhead than choosing to eat wild fish, but that’s the best way for an average Joe to make a difference. Want to do more? Why not take a job at Save Our Wild Salmon?

Normally on One Day, One Job, we try to focus on jobs that are below the radar. We know you’re visiting the big job boards, going to on-campus recruiting events, and hopefully using google to find jobs. Every day we like to show you career opportunities that you haven’t seen before, but today we’re going to talk about a company that you’re likely familiar with. GEICO has their online entry-level recruiting down to a science. Researching careers at GEICO may be so easy a caveman could do it, but we still want to put them in the spotlight as an example for other companies to aspire towards.
