FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Quintessential Careers Honored with National Awards
(QUINTESSENTIAL CAREERS: DeLand, FL) -- Quintessential Careers
(http://www.quintcareers.com/), a
leading job-search and career-development Website, has recently been honored
with two prestigious awards.
The first award is the 2003-2004 Golden Web Award in recognition of creativity,
integrity and excellence on the Web, awarded by the International Association of Web
Masters & Designers. This is the third time in the last four years that Quintessential Careers
has been honored with this annual award.
The second honor is being selected by Forbes Best of The Web as one of the “Best
of The Web” for Spring 2003. In fact, Quintessential Careers was chosen as a “Forbes Favorite,”
as the best site in its category by Forbes Best of The Web.
“Our mission is to be the ultimate career, job, and college site, offering free expert
career and job-hunting advice -- through articles, tools, tips, and tutorials, as well
as links to all the best job sites,” states Dr. Randall Hansen, publisher of the Website.
“And winning these two national honors really helps validate a lot of what we do for
students and job-seekers.”
Quintessential Careers has garnered many other awards too numerous to mention
(more than 100). Some of the site’s proudest accomplishments, however, include
its listing as one of the best Websites in many career books, including, America’s Top
Internet Job Sites and CareerXRoads: The Directory to Job, Resume, and
Career Management Sites on the Web (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003), as well as its
designation as a USA Today Hot Site.
Besides serving as publisher of Quintessential Career, Hansen is also an associate
professor of marketing at Stetson University. Hansen also writes a career advice
column published in the Daytona Beach News-Journal as well as under the name
The Career Doctor (http://www.careerdoctor.org/),
and is co-author of the cover letter bible, Dynamic Cover Letters, now in its third edition.
