The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

Description:

EXPERIENCED LINGUISTS FOR FREELANCE NAMING PROJECTS

Ever wonder how brand names get to market? Think you can do better?

Keen Branding, an international branding consultancy that works with
leading companies such as GlaxoSmithKline, Bristol-Myers Squibb,
Kellogg's, Agilent, HP, P&G and many others to create global names for
new companies, products and ethical drugs, seeks creative linguists to
contribute to projects on a flexible basis. Work on your own time,
weekends, evenings or days, to fit your schedule. Freelancers may
choose to work only within specific industries such as high tech,
pharma/biotech, consumer or industrial, or on projects with companies
throughout various industries.

We have need for linguists to work with us in two different ways:

1) Name Creation: Join our team of namers to work on a project basis
to create names for new companies, products and ethical drugs. This is
a freelance position. An interest in - and ideally a proclivity for -
naming is appreciated. Training is provided.

2) Name Review: Review names periodically for various issues that will
impact the usage and impact of a brand name in its market.

Send/fax/email resume, including with any relevant experience and
indicating your area of interest, to Keen Branding. For more
information, our web site address is http://www.keenbranding.com . We
look forward to hearing from you!
