Week 7 EOC: The Pitch

Paix Vodka is essentially the best vodka for any casual get together. It is made in France with only the freshest apples available. It is 40% alcohol, which means each bottle is 80 proof. It has a slightest touch of the crisp apple taste, making it enjoyable for a sipping vodka or a shot of vodka. Followed by the crisp apple taste will be a hint of cinnamon with a follow through of almond. The last part of this journey is the scent of apple cedar wood fragrance the is bound to enlighten the room. Each bottle comes in an elegant matte grey box with a pull tab that reveals the Paix Vodka, which lies in a nest of shredded cardboard. Every thing about the packaging and bottle is recycled, giving the drinker an experience others thirst for, yet a purpose that serves the better of the planet. Paix Vodka was created to help the planet and those who are in need. We care about our customers, and though some may not be able to purchase our products they are our affiliations. With every bottle of Paix Vodka sold, a clean water source will be given to a community in need. Paix Vodka serves a purpose larger than being an alcoholic beverage, our purpose is to better the world and bring peace and harmony to those who need it most. Paix Vodka, we are more than alcohol. Drink for a pleasure, drink for a purpose.

Social Networks and Job Hunting

While I don’t like the fact that Facebook is being used as a job recruiter, Facebook's use as a job-recruitment tool remains small, but its appeal may be growing, I do think it is a good profit for Facebook. Personally, I don’t use Facebook often, however I do have on and I do have my current education and my previous jobs listed. I use Facebook to connect with friends and family, but never have I thought that my personal page would be scouted for jobs. Facebook can utilize this new development and try to make a profit out of it, because even though it may be creepy and inhumane, it is a good investment and tool. Companies that are hiring can use this to their advantage by trying to leak their company through some ones account by the “Where do you work?” question on Facebook. Brands ranging from Burger King to the Chicago Bulls are “tweeting” on Twitter, so why can’t other companies use this as another way to get in the social media network. Companies regularly post ads or custom videos on video-sharing sites such as YouTube, which can be directly posted on to Facebook. Now I already stated I don’t like this version of job-recruitment by using Facebook and staking employees to see what they really are in real life, but it is very helpful. A job interview is one thing, but when a company hacks into your real life they see what you are hiding under the suit and tie. It can be used as a safety precaution, similar to a criminal background check. Or it can be used as a regular “who am I really hiring?” to see what type of personality this person actually has. Whatever or however it is used, in the end networking is networking.
