Reader Mail: Check Out the Ads

Check out both Brooklyn Park vs. Maplewood. Not only are the styles and details different, Maplewood is offering more (multiply hourly by 2080 for annual salaries).

I just thought I'd add this to the mix for your readers to see if they chose to check it out.

Keep up the good work. I lived in Maplewood many years ago and thought it had finally crawled out of the dark ages.

Looks like Brooklyn Park's job has a slightly higher range of salary ($51,540 to $60,636 versus $44,616-$59,800 for the Maplewood job, using the 2080 x hourly rate calculation).

Boy is there a world of difference between the minimum qualifications, though -- Maplewood wants only BA in Recreation or 2 years of rec programming experience, and a valid driver's license; Brooklyn Park requires the BA (and prefer post-graduate work as well) plus at least five years of experience, etc.

    Not to mention the exquisite English in the Maplewood one

    Performs supervisory and profession work to develop, implement, market & oversee recreation and leisure activities/programs.

    Maybe a professional would have said professional.
