Career development website

Getting a job in the current economic climate is difficult and many people are poorly prepared for searching for a job, putting together a resume, the process of submitting resumes, and putting your best foot forward in the event of an interview. Coherent Marketing recently turned over a new website to a group who will be actively engaged in helping people with this process.  The site, called Career Development Solutions, uses one of the new Top Level Domains or TLDs dot.solutions for the Fish Out Of Water group.  

The group, headed by Vanessa Cogdell, are all professionals with a long history of working with people being reskilled and in the area of career counselling, career coaching and related expertise.  The site will provide a way for interested people who are either interested in preparing for a career shift or those searching for work to get the help they need to be competitive in a competitive job marketplace. 

 

The site provides information about the services they offer, upcoming workshops, testimonials of people helped, and a blog about the field called Career Bites.  The website was built using Joomla and is fully responsive - a key element for those who may have access only to a phone to read about the services they offer.  As is common with sites built by Coherent Marketing, we provide training to small businesses on how to use their website and populate it with their own content, enabling small business owners to minimize costs and learn how to use their site at the same time. 

 

We turn over the site with Latin filler text and a quick search will reveal which pages still need to be completed.

If your organization is in need of a new website, please CONTACT US.

  • Skype's demise creates new method of spoofing and malware - malicious Microsoft Teams invites

    The demise of Skype and people switching to Microsoft Teams is producing a new wave of socially-engineered malicious activity using spoofed email meeting requests, some with attachments.

    Now that Skype has Skype has been retired by Microsoft, people who once used the voice and video platform for meetings have been told to switch to Microsoft Teams.  So instead of seeing a message notification in Skype, it is now much more common to see in your inbox a calendar notification email with time blocked out tentatively on your calendar.  Because meetings often require associated subject matter for the meeting, attachments and links are also quite typical. 

    It is both this increased frequency post-Skype, and the normality of having attachments for meetings that make them an ideal vector for malicious activity - something that is being exploited as the switchover from Skype happens.

  • Ten years of working with the African Leadership Institute

    In this industry, clients often hire for a project, and when the project is done, that’s the end of the relationship. Projects can last a few weeks or months, and then it’s turned over. It’s seldom that clients develop the trust and a working relationship that lasts a decade, but it’s a milestone that’s been accomplished at Coherent Marketing.

    In 2013, the African Leadership Institute wanted to transition from a web 1.0 site to something that would better reflect the work they did in developing the next generation of world-class African leaders through their flagship programme, the Archbishop Tutu Leadership Fellowship.

  • Falling foul of copyright ambulance chasers

    When selecting a vendor to provide website development or digital communications, make sure that they provide services that prevent your organisation from legal action due to possible copyright infringement. More importantly, your vendor should help your organisation put in place processes to ensure you manage images and music, understand digital rights and licenses, and save the licenses for images you use.  This is true for digital content used on your website or in social media posts.  Choosing a vendor just because they had a really, really low price to produce your website - but expose you to copyright claims - becomes a quick method to discover that you get what you pay for.

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) now makes it easier for copyright trolls to threaten organisations for use of an image they have used online. Here's how to avoid that.
