Not really a commercial post but www.asteriskhelpdesk.com is good place to at least post your profile or resume. Although it appears there is little activity on www.asteriskhelpdesk.com, there are quite a few projects being posted regularly. The service allows you to post project as well as job opening. The reason it appears so bare is because as soon as a customer decides on a "Guru", the listing disappears from the "Open Projects'. Anyways, the service is free and will stay that way. I may get around to upgrading and anding functionality. I can tell you that I received at least a dozen "Thanks Yous", for helping people find business. Last I checked, there were around 150 consultants and including core Devs such as OEJ and other people that really know their stuff. Anyone wanting to help improve the site is welcome to.
