President's Award Recipient Congratulations to
Susan Hoover who has been awarded the SLA-NY President’s Award for her longstanding contributions to the Community and in particular for managing the
SLA/NY JobLog so successfully.
Susan is a Research Specialist for the ad agency, VMLY&R, where she has worked for the last thirteen years. She is also a longstanding member of the SLA-NY Community and has been responsible for maintaining the
JobLog for many years. As President of the Community, Victoria North would like to recognize all her hard work spent maintaining this invaluable resource for members both seeking new positions and looking to recruit. Her management of the log is seamless, it always appears to be up to date and she maintains an impressive log of all previous postings.
