Welcome to MichaelCheckoway.com - the only site on the internet that offers you spectacular rewards including trips to Las Vegas, New York City, Los Cabos, Mexico, and CASH simply for helping me find a job. Due to the current economic situation I've had difficulty finding a full-time job so I'm getting creative and calling on you for assistance.
All you have to do is provide me with good, qualified leads and referrals, and if one of those leads gets me a job, you'll have your choice from a number of exciting prizes including vacations and cash. The better the job I get, the greater the reward for you. And if you hire me yourself, then you can cash in on the rewards.
Click
here to learn more about me, my qualifications and what types of jobs interest me. You can also view and download my
resume. Email me your leads and referrals, along with your contact information, and you could be a winner. The sooner I find a job, the sooner you get your reward.
Here's how it works. There are three levels of rewards, based on my new job's base salary, starting at an annual base salary of $55,000. When I accept a job, here's what you'll win.
Level 1 - $55,000-$74,999 annual salary
Three-night trip to Las Vegas for two people, including airfare, hotel, tickets to a show and $300 spending money
OR
Two-night trip to New York City for two people, including airfare, hotel, tickets to a show and $300 spending money
OR
$2,000 cash
Level 2 - $75,000-$99,999 annual salary
Seven-night trip to Los Cabos, Mexico for two people, including airfare, hotel and $500 spending money. Hotel stay will be at Hilton Los Cabos Beach and Golf Resort, The Westin Resort and Spa or Fiesta Americana Grand Los Cabos. Airfare and hotel based on availability.
OR
$4,000 cash
Level 3 - $100,000 and above annual salary
THE GRAND PRIZE - Choose one prize from Level 1 AND one prize from Level 2.
Thank you in advance for your interest and assistance in helping me find a job. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Legal stuff you need to know
Job must be based in Atlanta. Salary levels refer to base salary only. In order to claim your prize, I must accept the job and be employed for 90 days. You must provide 30 days notice prior to taking trip to allow time to book travel arrangements. Air travel will be in coach class. Cash rewards will be paid monthly in $1,000 installments. Only one contest winner will be awarded. Las Vegas hotel stay will be at MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay or The Mirage. New York City hotel stay will be at The Westin New York at Times Square, Marriott Marquis or Doubletree Guest Suites Times Square. Los Cabos hotel stay will be at Hilton Los Cabos Beach and Golf Resort, The Westin Resort and Spa or Fiesta Americana Grand Los Cabos. All airfare, hotel and show tickets based on availability, and certain blackout dates may apply such as holidays or special event weekends.
Here's an idea. With your experience in public relations and creatitivity, Why dont you market the resumes of people in similar situations ( may be through this website or may be new one) and make money :-).
Wish you all the best.

To the person making $20k/year complaining about Michael's desire to earn more money, I say this (some of this is going to sound repetitive):
My family and I invested about $80,000 on my 5 years of college (state college, double major in finance/accounting). That's 5 years that you were working that I chose to focus on my education instead.
Remind me again in which country do we live? The last time I checked we were a capitlist system, where it's ok for me to choose to invest in my future and to reap the rewards of doing so. Should we all earn $20k/year and have to "figure out how to make it work?" Yes, Doctor, I'd like fries with my double bypass surgery. I'll pass on that notion, thank you very much.
Finally, I would like to point out that for each employment transition I have made in my life, excepting roles where I have been self-employed (as I am now), my new employer based my compensation in no small part on my previous salary. For professionals, it is very difficult to restore earning potential once it has been given up, voluntarily or otherwise.
So what you're saying in your general argument is that he should suck it up and climb back down the ladder to do whatever job he can find, foregoing his education and training and work experience, just go earn a paycheck. I disagree, and I applaud Michael's innovation in applying his obviously vast creative talents to keep his resume sharp and focused on his professional career.
Best of luck to you Michael! Something tells me you are headed for bigger and better things...
With regards,
David

This is defiantly a very creative way to get your name out there. Very cool. But after reading some of the comments, why are we so hung up on getting a J-O-B. These things called Jobs are all but temporary. American was not founded on people coming to American to get a J-O-B. People came, and are at this very instant, for the opportunity of FREEDOM. Fight for it. Go into business for yourself and experience the very foundation this great country was created on. There are so many options out there today because of the internet to make extra money. Build a business and you'll never ever have to look for another J-O-B again. Fight for your FREEDOM.
If anyone out there in interested to know more about what am talking about e-mail me

Good Luck to the J-O-B hunt Michael.

Michael: We need thinking and action like yours at the brand new Peace of the Pie. You could help business folks who really, really need it. And change the world at the same time. What do you think?

Hi Michael,
I don't have a job lead for you, but I was in a similar position not too long ago and also made a web site to try and get through it: http://www.happyjobsearch.com . It helps you organize your leads and keep track of what to do next. It's completely free, so I hope you don't mind my mentioning it here!
