Mohawk Communications

This website was created quickly (in 6-days) and was originally designed to present information related to my qualifications and skills for positions within Mohawk Flooring. In other words, an assignment to prepare for an interview. Rather than offer a Powerpoint presentation or YouTube video detailing my experience and qualifications, I opted to package as much information into this web format as the limited lead time permitted. This website (rather than a Power Point CD-Rom) should indicate innovation, creativity, trend-setting accomplishments. Online communication is "the" communication source in today's world.

This website contains detailed information related to my (Michael Hilton) work history and achievements. This Employment or CV Website should be a unique and innovative concept. It should demonstrate out-of-the-box thinking which can be substantiated by my employment history.

The most powerful point (Powerpoint?) that can be made for this web presentation is that in only 4 days from conception to purchase of this domain name, and upload of its' first pages, I have been able to leverage this website into the #1 result listing for keywords- "mohawk communication manager" and "mohawk communications plan". Consider that this domain name DID NOT EXIST PRIOR TO APRIL 21, 2009! and by April 26, the website had been indexed by Google and was ranked #1. Typically a new website requires 6-months to be indexed and ranked by Google (unless you understand the procedure.) However, what better communication message than to be able to quickly broadcast the Mohawk message to the world, quickly, and at no cost?

Creating this website was an enormous undertaking, given the short lead time of 7 days for this assignment. This was an original, innovative undertaking (I'm not sure a website has ever been built specifically for one job interview). It was actually a fun challenge.

If I were to provide a short conceptual description or phrase to define or describe my employment history, it would read "NO ROADMAP NECESSARY". This phrase would describe the numerous projects I have undertaken, which were the first of their kind or were in areas that had never before been addressed. Hopefully this website will identify those trailblazing accomplishments.

By the way, Michael Hilton is still looking for his next career challenge.

This website contains information intended to fulfill three Mohawk HR Assignments;

Rewriting the Communication Manager employment ad
Development of a Communications Plan for a new Mohawk Manufacturing facility,
Development of a Presentation that reviews my CV or Accomplishments.

The Mohawk Communications Manager position is one of the most important positions within Mohawk. While the Mohawk Communications Manager position is not considered a Marketing position, it would be helpful for qualified candidates to possess some understanding of marketing and understand innovative ways of communicating the Mohawk Corporate message.

Mohawk Communication Manager The Mohawk Communications Manager position is a new position within Mohawk and it requires a uniquely innovative and imaginative individual to shape the responsibilities of this new position. An existing Communication Manager for an existing company (applying for this position) may be able to perform the duties of this position, but they may attempt to mold this position into a duplicate copy of an existing position at a completing company. Mohawk is the oldest carpet company in the United States. It did not become one of the oldest and largest Carpet manufacturers in the World by duplicating the products and processes of other Carpet companies.

Consumer surveys indicate that Mohawk is the most recognized and trusted name in Carpet. The Mohawk, Karastan, and Bigelow brand names are among the most respected brands in the world for any consumer product category. The Communication Manager cannot fully appreciate the importance of the position without understanding how the history of the company and how the position came to be.
