Recently Princeton University hosted an “Innovation Agenda” roundtable made up of Scholars, CEOs and Government officials at Princeton University. Participants discussed enhancing support for the physical sciences as well as expanding energy research. At a press conference following the roundtable one participant Norman Augustine, the former president and CEO of Lockheed Martin brought the discussion into sharp focus when he said, “…this is about jobs… The majority of the country’s adult population is dependent on the science sector for their jobs and their future.”
He has something here doesn’t he? Realmatch brings employers and job seekers together with our innovative Real-Time matching technology. For us every day “is about jobs” and not Apple Inc.’s Steve Jobs either but real jobs in real time. It’s about a better way for job seekers to get that job by letting the technology work for them. It’s about removing the barrier of pay-to-post pricing for employers of all sizes to post their jobs and find the highest quality candidates available. It’s about innovation and ultimately innovation is about jobs.
“Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” -Steve Jobs, CEO Apple Inc.
At Realmatch we are leading. Leading the online job board industry and transforming it every day with our innovative solutions. By creating science job matches with partners like Scientific American and MIT’s Technology Review we are leading the way for the “majority of the country’s adult population… dependent on the science sector for their jobs and their future (Augustine)”.
Now, there are folks out there that bombard us on a daily basis in the media, they say that the time is not now, that your luck will come later, batten down the hatches and ride out the storm because now is not the time for near misses.
“Life is a series of near misses. But a lot of what we ascribe to luck is not luck at all. It’s seizing the day and accepting responsibility for your future. It’s seeing what other people don’t see, and pursuing that vision, no matter who tells you not to.”-Howard Shultz, CEO Starbucks Inc., “Pour Your Heart Into It”.
Together “we” can overcome the aspersions of those that don’t see. Together the “we” of employers, job-seekers, and Realmatch will continue to pursue the vision of innovation by leading science and technology job matching into a vision of a future not bound by the limited imagination of those that say, “You can’t”. To all those that have been matched with a job, welcome to being part of the “we”. To the employers that found the quality candidate more efficiently and effectively, welcome to the “we”. We continue to innovate and lead at Realmatch and by working together “we” continue to match the jobs of the future that all of us depend on.
