[python-uk] job postings to this list
Hi All, What's the current state of play with job ads and this list? Last I knew, they weren't allowed. Seems to be the majority of list content now... Chris ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
Re: [python-uk] job postings to this list
The rule that I believe we arrived at, through some wonderfully nebulous consensus, was that occasional job postings from community members that could name the ACTUAL company were okay. I mean I would have never found my first Python job without those posts being allowed...

Seems to be the majority of list content > now... Hi Chris, A few years ago we discussed it and most people felt they were harmless, or even interesting, as long as it wasn't CV-trolling by agencies. There's not a lot one might want to discuss on a location-specific list, apart from jobs and meetups - Andy ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk

Of course, recruiters advertising for a specific job with an appropriate level of detail about the job in question (location, salary, expectation of role, desired skills and experience, information about what the company does) is also fine. What is recruiter spam? How about, "exciting opportunity for Python ninja in green-field project at one of London's most exciting employers" is, IMHO, NOT welcome. It's just meaningless noise and probably recruitment phishing.
