    Hi, Wanted to be sure that everyone had a chance to read the recent article in the Wall St Journal (Tuesday, May 28, page B1) on the growing demand for linguistics in the New Economy. As a headhunter with an MA/Linguistics who specializes in Computational Linguistics, Information Science, Ontology, KR, and related fields, I was able to provide the journalist with the bulk of the background for this article. Since the WSJ is not available for free on-line, my firm has arranged for Linguist List readers to access the article through the following link for free, for a limited time (until July 9): http://www.djreprints.com/jitarticles/trx0001450901287.html I currently have positions available in the following specialities, among others: NLP, Information Retrieval, Knowledge Representation, Ontology, AI, Taxonomy. These positions are located in some of the following geographic areas, as well as other areas: Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Texas, Boston, Rhode Island. The more computational experience and skills candidates have, the better (scripting languages, programming languages). The more commercial experience candidates have, the better (outside of academia). For more information, or to discuss potential applications of your Linguistic experience, please contact me at any time.
