New BilingualHire Contact Us Form.

by David Molina on July 19, 2010

If you’ve recently visited BilingualHire, you’ll notice a few, slight and minor changes around the edges. This includes the header links, the online banner and the new contact us form. We made these mostly to make your life easier eg. if your looking for a job, and need to find something in your area quickly. The online banner, “Need diversity? Attract bilingual talent here. Post a job now” redirects organizations HR departments to our new BilingualHire contact us form. The easy to fillout form asks for the basics, but it helps us quickly figure out where we could help. The cool thing about the form is that as founders we get inundated with emails both personal and work related that are asking us for our attention and the info provided here gets forever stored and saved so we don’t lose your request. As many founders/business owners/entrepreneurs/executive directors/managers/leaders (fill in the blank) will attest, we hate losing, misplacing and forever missing your comunique that is important, took some time to write and respectively sent. Without a viable sytem in place that can easily store, filter and track, we can easily just hit and miss (think email). With that try it out, and let us know what your thoughts are. We’re listening.
