Hello, Jobs List Members: <s>
This FAQ will be sent to all Job List members on the first
Friday of each month to keep you up to date with HWG
information. Keep the most current monthly FAQ in a
convenient location for easy reference to the latest
Guild resources and information on this List.
The HWG-Jobs List has posted close to 60 opportunities
for List member's review in the month since the list was
activated. A wide variety of opportunities as well! We are
very excited about the activity and the quality of positions
that have been offered thus far. And, feedback from
employers has been extremely positive!
The List Guide Team is always available to answer your
questions and address concerns about the HWG-Jobs List.
We can be reached by emailing lg-jobs(at)hwg.org.
Have a great weekend!

1. Mailing List Tip of the Week
=====================================================
At the top of each job posting will be the email reply to address for that
particular opportunity. Please remember that by just hitting your reply
button you will send your inquiry/information to the HWG-Jobs List Guide
Team, not to the party responsible for the opportunity.
2. What are List Guides?
=====================================================
The List Guide Program was created to assist members on the HWG
Mailing Lists to get the most from the lists. We perform the task of helping
the lists get and keep quality, valuable, valid content. In addition, List
Guides provide assistance to all who request it and help enforce the HWG
policies for the mailing lists. Information on the List Guide program can be
found at http://www.hwg.org/lists/intro.html .
We are here, always in the background, to assist you with your questions
and concerns. The List Guide program is authorized and endorsed by the
HTML Writers Guild Governing Board. If you have a problem with an action
taken by a List Guide you may address that with their manager(s) by
sending mail to alg-managers(at)hwg.org.
