Hey there forum crew. We have been trying to do a lot more outreach into the community here, which you can probably tell from the posts about the Signature Series and questions to you about SDA. I realized we haven't really done much connection in terms of letting you all know what jobs are available at Polk and Definitive's parent, Sound United. There are quite a few new positions open that I thought some of you might like to know about. The full list is continually updated here:

http://www.soundunited.com/career-listings/

Open positions as of this posting:
PR / Social Media Coordinator
Manager of Digital Marketing – SEO/SEM
Inventory Planner
Senior Transducer Engineer
Director of Inventory Management and Supply Chain
Associate Brand Manager
International Sales Associate

    Thansks for sharing that information. That's very cool and excellent of you to do on the company's behalf.

    I am thinking you don't get much call for biochemists, though (especially telecommuting biochemists) so I think I am "out".

    PR sounds fun..

    I personally think it's about time all college and pro sporting events show the name Polk Audio on all them headsets you see people wearing instead of Bose. :o

    Yea, it's doable.

    Good point, LED lights are lessening that requirement meaning fewer jobs.
    How does PR sound?

    Then why am I working seven days a week to keep on schedule? And also hiring new Techs every month? ;)
