[ale] employment list discussions

[Jeff Lightner]

Haven't really used it but http://www.recruiterless.com
<http://www.recruiterless.com/>  is for Principals only posting of IT
Jobs.   It isn't Linux specific.  Maybe hooking up with the folks
running that site for a sub-site for Linux specific that are also
visible on broader searches would be a good idea.  (e.g. UNIX Admins
would probably be interested in Linux specific positions during a job
search.)

 

The site has been mentioned at AUUG a few times.

It has been brought to my attention that the ale-employment list is no
longer alive. I think that should be remedied.

So this is a thread to discuss a how-to on this topic.

1. We can always startup another mailing list
2. How about a separate wikki page?
3. Or maybe a blog page that is open
4. Should we send notices to as many legit recruiters as we can find
announcing this?
5. Should we look at something even more substantial?

My ONLY caveat to ANYTHING we do is a requirement for any job posted
there must be a need for Linux skills to be used spelled out in the
posting. If they want a janitor who can do time entry on a Linux system
I'm OK with that. (Hey! It gets Linux in the business world! Cool,
huh?!) 

Hmm. Thinking at the keyboard here...

Maybe an open-access blog that uses a form fill-in for the posting with
email verification? So ANY person with a job or looking for a job can
put in their data and a listing, and the post is scanned for
[Ll][iI][nN][uU][Xx] and if found the posting is sent to the supplied
email address for email verification. It is then posted on the read-only
blog when the confirmation reply email comes in.

Maybe we should link this up with other LUG's?

Come on ALE'rs! Toss in your ideas!
