Telling you about a new company every day is just part of what we do—our blog is filled with articles that will help you land a job. If you haven’t read my post on How to Use Facebook Ads to Make Employers Hunt You Down, then you haven’t had the full One Day, One Job experience yet. I’m bringing that up specifically because this morning I came across a guy who used Google AdWords brilliantly in his job search. (You need to see this!) And if you love these creative marketing ideas, then you’ll love what Fast Horse does. They’re a Minneapolis, MN based boutique consumer marketing agency with expertise in non-traditional marketing. Their clients include Coca-Cola, Odwalla, Radisson, and Marvin, and they’ve eschewed a traditional corporate website in favor of a blog format.

Get on a Fast Horse

Fast Horse doesn’t seem to have a portfolio page, but they do have an Our Work tag for blog posts that show off what they’ve done. One of my favorites is the short movie that I’ve embedded below (RSS and e-mail readers will have too click through).

Another quirk about Fast Horse is that they host their Jobs page on Facebook. Well, it’s not exactly a Jobs page. It’s more “a resource for aspiring professionals seeking internships or entry-level positions in advertising, graphic design, marketing, public relations, interactive, etc.” But it’s also how they recruit their own entry level talent. They’ve just announced their Summer Intern Search on both the Facebook page and the Blog. Usually I leave the internships to One Day, One Internship, but they’re looking for someone who is a recent grad and they’re offering the potential for this to turn into a permanent position (the internship is paid). The really interesting thing is that they’re only accepting video applications, and they’re letting their Facebook page’s Fans/Likers/Whatever Mark wants us to call them these days, make the final decision on which of the top 3 applicants will get the position. This is a really cool idea, but I worry that it’s a discrimination lawsuit waiting to happen (I’m not a lawyer, but I did major in Industrial and Labor Relations and took Labor Law). Anyway, if you’re interested, you can find all of the details here.
