Orchidians: Does anyone know of the existence of a job search web site
specifically for jewelers? Does this site also list faculty or
teaching positions?
I know that Charlotte Cody operates a placement service for the
industry. I am not aware of one that posts openings for academic
positions, or a “help wanted” board for small stores or shops, or an
apprenticeship wanted/available list.
Thanks,
Doug Zaruba
the gia particularly http://www.gia.edu/careers/capositions.cfm can
help here and the ags has job placement help as well
Comment to Karen Stamp who is searching for a jeweler’s position, the
web site she was looking for is http://jewelryheadhunter.com.

Hi Doug, MJSA runs a “Career Center” with space for job listings and
resume postings on their web site (http://www.mjsainc.org).
Unfortunately, it does not seem to be well utilized. When I checked it
out recently, there were no jobs listed and only a handful of
resumes.
I don’t know if the problem is lack of awareness on the part of the
industry (I don’t know whether MJSA has advertised it at all) or lack
of jobs. I suspect the former – but perhaps if more people take
advantage of it, it’ll grow in usefulness in time.
Not much help, I know, but perhaps a start.
