[edit] Discussion

I remember the search committee in 2014 said they didn't state how many hours per month the position was, and that meant people only applied that were looking for a full-time position.

I think we should drop "Simply Accounting" as we've been using Quick Books the last few year.

I think we should beef up the computer skills to something like "comfortable learning new computer skills" given the reliance on the wiki and phone.com.

In 2017, most effective was on-line ads: Kijiji and The Voice. Ad in Shootin' the Breeze had no responses. The Echo had one response.

The 2017 ad could have created the impression that the administrator only needed to be in Pincher once a month. Whereas the actual need is once a week, with flexibility on when to arrive except for the monthly meeting.
