12 Jul 10 Clarifying expectations

Having been around the blogging community for eight years now, this blog (and the Blogspot-hosted one that preceded it) have enough content that makes it stand out in search results for certain keywords.  I also have made myself accessible through this blog.

Since I have been getting more emails lately from individuals asking for advice, I feel that it’s important that I help clarify what it is that I’m doing over here so you know what to expect from me.

Clarifying expectations

1. This blog is something I’ve done as a hobby, out of a desire to share what I’ve found interesting or useful in my own job searches and career development.
2. I am just a guy who writes this blog in his free time. Much less free time, now that I’m back in the workforce, since earlier this year. (I’m sure you agree that this is a very good thing.)
3. I am not an expert on SCOTI, or as it’s better known, Ohio Means Jobs, even though this blog post remains the most popular one here and continues to rank highly in search engines. (As far as I know, when you register for unemployment benefits, you’re registered for this program. Check with your state unemployment representative for more details.)
4. Whatever I share in this blog or in response to personal emails from the Contact page is simply my own opinions, which come with no express or implied guarantees.
5. Whenever you contact me through this blog or via email, you understand these things and are comfortable with them.

Now that we have an understanding, I’d still love to hear from you. Feel free to contact me via the comments or the Contact page.
