Since it’s Friday, we’re going to try something a little different. We keep hearing that video is the future of the web, and we found a great video of Astadia CEO, Ernie Riddle, describing what his company does, so instead of introducing you to Astadia ourselves, we’re going to leave it up to the person who knows them best. We hope that this video works for everyone, and if it doesn’t, please let us know. It may not show up in the feeds or e-mails, so all the subscribers will have to click through to the main post to see the video. We want to hear feedback from everyone. Is this something that you like? Do you prefer to read instead of watch? Please use the comments section to let us know your reactions.
For those of you who aren’t going to watch, Astadia is a consulting firm that specializes in four areas: Sales, Marketing, Customer Service, and Employee Performance. Astadia works very closely with SalesForce.com, and is the largest consulting firm that specializes in helping companies implement and integrate SalesForce.com into their business practices. They’ve been growing at a ridiculous rate (1,762.8% 3-year growth) and saw $9.7 million in revenue for 2006, which put them at #83 on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing private companies. With this rapid growth comes the need for lots of hiring – some at the entry-level. Also, if you liked this video, check out Ernie Riddle talking about SalesForce.com’s integration with Google Apps.
Astadia offers careers all across the world. We’re going to focus on jobs in North America, but you shouldn’t hesitate to look at their Careers pages for Europe, Middle East, and Africa or Asia Pacific. Although we were able to find a number of entry-level jobs listed on Astadia’s Careers page, we were disappointed by the user experience. They have listings for positions as Sales Associates, Data Architects and Technical Architects, Technology Trainers, and Employee Performance Consultants – all of which appear to be suited for new college grads, but the descriptions are only a few sentences long, which makes it difficult to tell. Even stranger is that Astadia doesn’t say where the jobs are located. We know that they have offices in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, and San Diego, but there is no mention of which offices these jobs would be based out of.
They do make it really easy to apply for a job directly from the job descriptions on their Careers page, but not many people will want to apply for a job when they don’t know where it is. Astadia could definitely do a better job providing career related information on their website, but at least they seem to be doing some interesting things. It has to be fun working for a company that is growing so quickly, even if you have no idea where you’re located.

I just wanted to let you know that I like the video idea but it didn’t open.
The video worked great for me!
I saw a presentation showing Astadia’s personnel spread across 28 US cities. That distribution is because they they really “live” in the Saas/OnDemand technology world that allows talent to live and work almost anywhere.
