Syniverse and my journey to the center of the connected world

Hi Syniverse peeps!

I had the pleasure to speak with Talent Acquisition Associate Manager Jonathan Taddeo on September 26th about the Senior Creative Writer position. I think this job could be right up my alley. Let’s go down through the job posting and see how I match up, shall we?

How can Cliff help you? A journey through your job posting

“…partner with visual design to build concepts collaboratively for integrated, multichannel digital campaigns…”

For the past 12 years, I have collaborated with designers, producers, strategists, and video creatives to infuse the written word into an array of materials including social media, video, web, email and blogs—the works!

“…telecom and messaging technology experience and knowledge a plus…”

I’ve helped create hundreds(!) of digital properties for T-Mobile including web pages, videos, digital retail experiences, and social media campaigns.

“…ability to interpret, simplify and communicate complex technical concepts…”

This is where all my years working in special education really paid off. I’ve helped explain complex topics like SaaS application delivery controllers. mRNA, SD-WAN and AI-driven ultrasound. (Boy, that’s a lot of acronyms!)

What you’ll get from Cliff McCloe

Leadership at every step

I’ve led clients and internal teams at every phase. The Tone-Setting First Call. The Nitty-Gritty Strategy Session. The Free-For-All Concepting Meeting. The Follow-Up Laser-Focused Concepting Meeting. The First Client Preso (aka The Big Show). The Egos-Be-Damned Production Frenzy. The “I-Can’t-Wait-To-Work-With-Your-Team-Again” Post-Delivery Call & Backslapping Session.

A veteran storyteller and educator

I have performed in thousands of audience-interactive improv shows at the SAK Comedy Lab and at Universal Studios Orlando, which pretty much gives me a dual Master’s Degree in Collaboration and “Making Wonderful Things Out of What the Audience Gives Us.” I’ve also spent seven years as an educator in special ed classrooms. Both of those experiences taught me an irrefutable truth: If you want to take your audience somewhere cool, you have to start by meeting them where they are.

I’m ready to bring bold ideas and work at the center of the connected world. So, if you’re game, I’m game.

Cheers,

Cliff
