Internal Blogger on Strategy and Business Practices

The professional who is selected to write an Internal Blog on Business Strategies for Google would by necessity be expected to consume a huge volume of printed, published, and otherwise documented information related to the company which would include information saved on internal shared company drives, as well as information that is published externally about the company from analysts reports, media coverage and competitive reviews published about the company and other partner and competitive companies.  In addition to the ability to consume a tremendous volume of printed information, this professional would also be expected to attend, audit or participate in internal and shareholder-focused meetings on a near-continuous basis.

This individual would need to possess the ability to understand the progressive nature of the core capabilities of the company, and position themselves to find and decipher fragments of information that show the future intentions and un-disclosed plans/strategies of competitors, partners and other industry organizations. This individual would be required to assimilate this information into a series of confidential blog posts which would be structured to provide company executives with a snapshot of the information (which although well documented) would by necessity take the form of executive level summary reports. This individual should be able to withstand high-level strategically focused demanding Q&A sessions with company executives who are setting and adjusting the core strategic business plans for The Company.   

I would really, really like to apply for this position, but it is not included in the list of jobs that are currently advertised at jobs.google.com, so I have applied for the following job instead:

Director of Employment Marketing, Branding - Mountain View

 This series is a skills showcase of Clint Garwood, a senior-level marketing consultant actively campaigning to get a Google job. I am happy to interview for and discuss this and other positions with Google (or with other companies) where my skills and extensive experience can find a good home. I am willing to relocate and/or travel extensively as a condition of any suitable work offer made to me. Thank you for considering me for Your Team. I am looking forward to hearing from you very soon.

Internal Blogger for New and Existing Products

This new position recommended for The Company would share insight through an internal blog to document and discover the perceptions of Google labs and beta-level products, which are being developed and internally tested, by employees and various proprietary partners under confidentiality agreements. The Internal Blogger for Developmental, New and Beta Level products would be a password (intranet) level blog that makes use of internal communications channels to help provide developers with a history of feedback on products as they go through the development cycle.

This professional would be an internal champion of tested products, but also a bearer of bad news for any and all the products of which they review. The blogger would be required to develop a schedule of upcoming products to review and would also be responsible for updating old blog posts with fresh feedback as it is received. The blogger would be expected to understand the developmental timeframe that products are constrained by, and would be expected to solicit first-person feedback in a manner that provide engineers who are developing the product with ample time to include the feedback that is received back into the development of the product before the products are offered for review to external audiences.  

It would be a pleasure to apply for this position, but it is not included in the list of jobs that are currently advertised at jobs.google.com, so I have applied for the following job instead:
