Wherever he could find work, he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d hitch a ride there, find a couch to crash on, and immerse himself in whatever profession was at hand.<\/p>\n<p>Thousands of people began following his journey, looking to him for inspiration in their own lives. The media covered the story extensively: The New York Times, Rachael Ray Show, Good Morning America, CNN, 20\/20, CBC Newsworld, FOX News and countless others.<\/p>\n<p>Sean realized he hadn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t started on his own journey. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d started a movement. \u00c2\u00a0Now at the end of his journey, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time to share the complete story and the lessons learned along the way.<\/p>\n<p>Sean has since written a book, The One-Week Job Project, is working on a film about his experience, and has started the One Week Job Program.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About The One Week Job Program<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The One-Week Job Program is designed to provide others the opportunity to participate in a similar experience to Sean\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s original journey.<\/p>\n<p>The first semester of the program is currently taking place, with winners from Canada and the United States. \u00c2\u00a0The three \u00e2\u20ac\u0153jobbers\u00e2\u20ac\u009d of the inaugural semester will work 8 different One Week Job\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s of their choosing, and will receive a $3000 grant towards their travel expenses.<\/p>\n<p>Inaugural Participant Amanda Lowe is spending one of her jobs with Reframe Marketing, a strategic planning and business marketing company based in Vancouver. \u00c2\u00a0This event is her first event-planning project, and she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s looking forward to sharing the program with you!<\/p>\n<p>Contact: Karen Milde, Reframe Marketing 778.837.4163, <a href=\"mailto:kmilde@reframemarketing.com\">kmilde@reframemarketing.com<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/reframemarketing.com\">www.reframemarketing.com<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Immediate Release, July 28, 2010 Contact: Karen Milde, Reframe Marketing 778.837.4163, kmilde@reframemarketing.com www.reframemarketing.com The One-Week Job Project \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Now in Vancouver!
