Summary: The Work in Sports podcast is brought to you by <a href="http://empowrd.com">EMPOWRD</a> This is the most important election of our time. Period. It’s is incredibly important for you to see through the noise, the chaos, the misinformation -- and VOTE. Your VOTE matters. I have already returned my early ballot, dropped it off in person at a designated official dropbox...and you know what happened. Rainbows. Immediately. If you want to stay informed, engaged, and ready to vote, check out the EMPOWRD app -- super powerful full of local information, tons of resources to help you. Download the app today at <a href="http://empowrd.com/">EMPOWRD.com</a> Hey everybody, I’m Brian Clapp, VP of Content and Engaged Learning at <a href="http://workinsports.com">WorkInSports.com</a> and this is the Work in Sports podcast... Before we get into our new favorite segment, the stat line, quick note -- the final part of our four-part series on social justice in sports told through the eyes of our young diverse aspiring sports professional panel...is Wednesday. I hope you have been listening. If not. Do it. Start with part 1. After this series is complete we’ll get right back into our weekly sports industry interviews -- with a returning champion, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynchjoan/">Joan Lynch</a>. Joan is the Chief Content Officer for WorkingNation, which means she studies the job market and has incredible advice. <a href="https://www.workinsports.com/blog/joan-lynch-the-future-of-sports-employment-work-in-sports-podcast/">Her first podcast episode</a>, last year at this time, was one of our most popular of all-time. Like, way more downloads than <a href="https://www.workinsports.com/blog/nfl-agent-leigh-steinberg-on-the-work-in-sports-podcast/">Leigh Steinberg</a>, but not quite as many as <a href="https://www.workinsports.com/blog/mailynh-vu-cleveland-indians-director-of-talent-acquisition-work-in-sports-podcast/">Mailynh Vu</a>. Which puts her in rockstar status. We’ve already recorded this interview and I have to say, I think it’s some of our best work -- Joan knows her stuff, and I get all fired up, and then she brings insightful data, and I rant and rave -- we are like a perfect yin and yang. So plan on tuning in, next Wednesday. Alright… let’s get into The stat line… The total number of jobs on WorkInSports.com -- the number one job board for the sports industry -- 17,286 -- pretty much flat week over week. We added 2,093 new jobs in the last week, an average of 299 fresh sports jobs per day during the last week. That’s a lot of fresh activity. Three cool jobs -- #1 The South Carolina Stingrays are hiring a Marketing Coordinator - great entry-level job -- I’ll wait a few seconds for you all to google search to figure out what sports the South Carolina Stingrays play. If you guessed Minor League Baseball as I did, you’d be wrong, this is an ECHL hockey team - minor league sports are a great career starter, check this one out. Go, Jamie Harrison! #2 The Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs are hiring a Director of Digital Media and Communications -- The Iron Pigs President and GM Kurt Landes was on this show...and the Iron Pigs, the Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies are just 20.8 miles from my house. So if you get this job, let’s hang out.
