A HAPPO poem
By Rob Smith
Oooohhhh yeah it time for Rob Smith to get HAPPO.
If you hire me I’ll deliver in my first year like Ravens QB Joe Flacco
When you meet me you noticed I’m very tall
Had a dream to play pro basketball
But that dream came to an end
because I couldn’t shoot, jump or defend

It’s been a dark few weeks. A volcanic eruption halted global commerce. LOST showed a repeat this week. Crazy Siobhan was sent packing on American Idol. Kate Gosselin somehow was on “Dancing With The Stars.”

With HAPPO just hours away, I have compiled some “pitches” from some VERY qualified pros! Some are rising college seniors, some are pros that got crunched in the recession and others are looking for their next career move.

Note from Mike – With HAPPO just days away, I reached out to my good friend Jolie Downs at Paradigm Staffing for her top tips for interviewing. What she sent is above and beyond any expectations! Job-seekers, please use this as a resource. Employers, don’t accept less than the best!
