Hello,
As per my post on the round table, here is more info from Jeff:
If there was only one thing I could say about Federated, it's a great
group of people to work for. Check it out at federated.ca. Both the IT
Manager (Jeff Nordick) & the Technical Support Supervisor (Allan
Mozel, who'd be your boss) are very friendly, personable & intelligent
people. You'd have no problem working with them. And the company as a
whole is very good, with decent pay structures, benefits, bonus
structures, training opportunities, etc. Honestly, I wouldn't have
recommended the positions to a friend unless I thought they were good
opportunities. I've been here for 11 years now, moving from first a
Junior to an Intermediate Programmer to now a DBA & I'm still happy.
My wife has been with the company for over 21 years.
As far as resumes, if you feel comfortable you could just send them to
me & I'll be happy to forward them to the right people in our HR
department. Otherwise you could email them straight to HR(a)Federated.ca
or snail-mail to:
Human Resources
Federated Insurance of Canada
717 Portage Ave, 4th Floor
Winnipeg,MB R3G0M8
If you send them directly make sure to reference the job title & make
sure you mention that you found out about the job through me (like I
said, I get goodies if you get hired). For you personally of course
you'll get a nice shiny recommendation :). Feel free to list me as a
reference. Either way, let me know the names of the applicants so I
don't look dumb-founded when HR asks me who this guy is :>.
