Thanks to everyone for your feedback and to everyone who applied for the position - we had some really great applicants, and one or two exceptionally good ones.
The position has now been filled, but we will keep everyone who applied on file for future ref. I should also take the opportunity to mention that we have other openings coming up in the next few months which are purely Python/Django based - and we are also considering taking on interns this year.
