Johnstoun Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Paul Smith or Susan Weir should get a decent shot at this opportunity. I wouldn't mind but I don't do sales or marketing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indicator Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 It is St Johnstone Football Club's policy as an employer to treat all people equally irrespective of race, ethnic origin, sex, marital or parental status, sexual orientation, creed, disability, age or political belief. Have they covered everything here, I mean there's bound to be somebody out there that is offended that their particular situation hasn't been mentioned. Look out Cynical Saint - I'm after your title.

mainstand Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 I believe that Paul turned it down. Astonished that the Club offered him the job without advertising and seeing what is available out there.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they covered everything here, I mean there's bound to be somebody out there that is offended that their particular situation hasn't been mentioned. Look out Cynical Saint - I'm after your title. Disclaimer statements are popular when advertising posts - the statement "St Johnstone FC is an equal opportunity employer." would have sufficed. Astonished that the Club offered him the job without advertising and seeing what is available out there.? Internal promotion for promoted posts is extremely common - if the right candidate was available internally it would have been efficient of Saints to appoint from within. However, if internal employees are interested they can still apply, so the club is getting the best of both worlds here. Advertising with The Scotsman - easy seeing we're a club alright for money!

andrew Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 No worries, i'm just amazed pedantic pete and his pedant pistol didn't spot it first. Or any number of your fans for that matter. I saw it about four hours ago. Decided not to bother pointing it out. I thought this next bit lost him the job. "I have good health and have an had no sickness related absence in the last 10 years." Apart from the typing error, I want to know what non-sickness related absences have you had, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
