This is the post to which you add your Warm-Up 1 task as a Comment (i.e. click on the Comment button below). When you add your Comment, don't forget to write your name on the post! You'd be amazed how much detective work I sometimes have to do to find out who actually wrote the comment!
Warm-Up 1 asks you to write a personal presentation for a web site. This is a general message that goes out to everyone who visits the web site of the new company you've just got a job with. I.e. it needs to be informative, but a bit general - and a good piece of advertising for your new employer. In other words, you need to show how smart your new employer is for hiring you!
You'll find a couple of useful links on the Warm-Up 1 page: one from the 'How to Do Things' site with some general advice, and an example of personal presentations from the Ericsson company.
You'll also find the 'Warm-Up 1 and Send-In 1' Podcast to be of help too.
You'll also find the 'Warm-Up 1 and Send-In 1' Podcast to be of help too.

Let us welcome out newest and much anticipated employee Robin Richardsson!
Robin received his Bachelor degree 1987 in the class of Economic Management but has also studied courses alongside concerning Public Relationships.
Working with a business, helping it to improve and accomplish goals that require hard work has always been a passion for Robin.
In the past he worked with problems related to ours such as finding ways to get the business going strong again. Robin succeeded with his mission on his latest place of work called The Västervik Experience and was no longer needed at the company for a while, and that's why he's looking for new business to help out. He strongly believes that he can make a huge difference to this company and exploit the marketing in China because of his previous studies concerning Puplic Relationships.
When Robin's not working he likes to practice sports, associate with friends and music has become a new big interest of his. He is currently in a relationship which makes it hard for him to travel around too much.

Påryd Projektering latest addition to the team is Ms. Magdalena Johansson . With a bachelor degree in Nautical Science from the Merchants marine academy in Kalmar 2002 and more than 20 years at sea she is our new Project manager.
ReplyDeleteIn her two year trainee program from Maersk Shipping she concentrated in the international relations in shipyard/ new build market. At Damen Shipyard in Gothenburg she worked as project manager for a two year period with the best remarks. She has been in charge of both small and big projects in one of the world largest shipyard company. The largest was the rebuild of M/S “Sundance Kid” in 2011.
We believe that Ms. Magdalena Johansson can give us at Påryd Projektering a new eye on the international market and with the combination of communication skills and global aspect the day to day work in our new team will be more exiting and dynamic than ever. She has both technical and economical skills. Our aim is to be able to offer turn –key projects in 2015, and with Magdalena Johansson we have a long term goal that we are convinced to achieve.

ReplyDeleteThe condition of the car was under no circumstances acceptable. In the middle of the highway the engine stopped working and because of that I was promised to get a discount and reimbursed $50, which was the cost of the tow truck.
When I saw my credit card statement I realized that the discount and the reimbursement hadn't been registered.
As a customer I'm really disappointed with how you handled this case by making me feel uncomfortable and making an inconvenient situation.
I trusted this company and expected you to be serious and professional
