Campaign #HireHoff a success!
There is one less person on the job market now that #HireHoff has been hired!
If you remember, on June 14, 2010, I launched my Campaign #HireHoff.
I had an overwhelming amount of support during this time.

Campaign #HireHoff a Success
I had multiple people contact me during this time for various positions. I was able to network with some wonderful people, and I learned a lot about being proactive and managing my own brand: Sarah Kay Hoffman.
So what position did I take on that 43rd day?
Community Manager – Fitness/Sporting Goods (FitClub) – Sears Holdings Corporation
If you know anything about me, you know that I am most passionate about social media/content marketing and health, fitness, and food. Merging the two is the perfect fit for me.
I believe that a company who can take advantage of this will benefit – at least that’s what I am making a 100% commitment to!
I look forward to learning about and engaging with the “community.” I am excited to embrace change, growth, and success in this role and bringing forth many posts to accommodate it all! (Please note: This blog will continue to be based on my personal views.)
At the end of the day, I can honestly say that even though I was forced into Campaign #HireHoff, it only re-confirmed that, everything happens for a reason.
Xox,
SKH
