As a Rubyist, I am really surprised at - so much anger for a legit job posting, just because it did not had 'Python' keyword in its description. I can't obviously speak for everyone, but I believe there is no such thing as Python Job or Ruby Job - for 90% of exciting programming jobs out there. Ideally, what the community should do is, set out a guideline for a legit job posting such as: - Does it have [JOB] or something in subject, so as people can steer clear if they want? - Does it exactly say, what the requirements are and for which company? - Does it mention location? - It should not sound phony. If a job posting matches all of the above, it is all good. However, as a community if everyone agrees, one can add: - Must mention Python as keyword in job posting. But then, every recruiter will add that anyways. What does a recruiter want, more keywords! _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
