The real DHARMA Initiative. If you don't already know about this (LOST did a take on them for the tv show)- then read on..
If you haven't seen my other DHARMA blog see it first, especially if you are not aware of the DHARMA or Hanso Foundation (founder of DHARMA): http://alysagoodstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/lost-spin-on-real-dharma-hanso.html
This blog site has good real DHARMA information including videos (some videos aren't truth so look here and see for yourself, this person listed pretty accurately and has a couple posts, some for the tv show too) http://www.squidoo.com/jointhedharmainitiative
When I viewed the blog above and other blogs I noted in my blog post, I noticed information about the Hanso Foundation (DHARMA Initiative founder) videos, commercials, stuff I didn't notice or realize that my favorite tv show was based on a real scientific experimental foundation, really! Anyway, the one above, I saw in 2008 they were possibly recruiting under the name: "Octagon Global Recruiting" well I googled and all websites regarding DHARMA, Ocrtagon Global Recruiting gone and even for the Hanso Foundation also gone. So I decided to do another search, I typed in Octagon recruit and found Job listings just recently posted at http://www.startuphire.com/search/?Search=Advanced&companyname[]=Octagon+Research+Solutions&k=c . Then I went to the website listed for Octagon Research Solutions, Inc.: (page titled "Who we are") The information quoted below is from their web page: http://www.octagonresearch.com/who-we-are.html
Okay, so here is the details as seen on the site for Octagon Research. The company started "in 1999 as a development partnering organization", they provide regulatory services to the life sciences industry. They have an Octagon symbol within the logo... DHARMA? They do clinical data collection. The site says, "Presently, Octagon has four strategic lines of business that include
Regulatory, Clinical, Process Consulting and Software solutions. Our
offerings combine people, process and technology to provide complete
capabilities to our valued clients."
The site also says: "The Octagon Team has developed “Octagon's Eight Rules of Thumb” that guide our actions and foster an entrepreneurial culture across the
organization. The Rules of Thumb are an integral part of our daily
activities. Because they are so important, the rules can be seen
throughout our various locations and have been incorporated into our
recruiting processes. We encourage entrepreneurial thinking and reward
execution toward our corporate goals.
We develop a solution rather than present a problem
when confronted with an issue.
Everything we do, we do on time and to our highest
standard; what we deliver
reflects on us and the company.
We are people with passion, a sense of urgency, and
self-confidence.
We recruit “smart” people with high personal standards
and a bias for action.
We seek people to enrich our culture, not reinvent it.
We understand that every client interaction affects
our growth and success.
We service the clients, community and each other with
commitment and integrity.
In order to be successful at Octagon we all need an
entrepreneurial mindset."
ahh humm, Sounds like DHARMA Initiative to me!? What do you all think?
