Voice talent, teacher, help desk among July jobs

Metro job description may be in jeopardy

The Hispanic Nashville Notebook hosts a job site called the Workbook, but it is not the only Hispanic or bilingual employment listing in Middle Tennessee.

Franklin's Latin Market Communications circulates a monthly job listing in the bilingual paper Que Pasa and also makes the list available by e-mail. The July 2008 Que Pasa jobs are below, including a Metro job requiring Spanish (if this job's use of Spanish is discretionary and considered "official" communications, would a proposed Metro charter amendment* outlaw the bilingual part of the job description?).

Two other jobs that have come to my attention lately are the voice talent opening below, and the next job for a bilingual teacher at First Steps.

Freelance voice talent:
Recording studio in Nashville specializing in audio for corporate phone systems is looking for Spanish-speaking professionals to expand our freelance voice talent roster. Experience helpful but not a requirement. Prefer neutral accents if possible, and fluent English is always a plus. E-mail voiceover0807@hispanicnashville.com for more information.

Who decides what "communications and publications" means - i.e. is a verbal communication in another language forbidden if the verbal communication is not "published"?
