As far as these questions go, I've posted contract jobs and full time jobs
on IxDA and I would not pay $200 + to do this, (I don't make anything off
these jobs).
As per individual questions:
1)Would you pay a fee to post a job at IxDA.org using Coroflot’s
service,
knowing that half of the fee you’ll be paying would go to fund IxDA
activities? - JRR - Not that high of a fee, maybe a sliding scale, starting
at $50.00. I think IxDA could earn enough to operate via focussed fund
raising events, (or just ask members for $$$ for specific purposes).
2) How would you want to deal with other job-related opportunities such as
internships, PhD, part-time positions and so on? - JRR - These should be
free/low cost if possible.
3) How valuable would the portfolio service be to you? - JRR - Having
duplicate portfolios along with my business site is nice, some very simple
service could do probably just as well.
4) Should a Coroflot-hosted Job Board at IxDA.org display available jobs in
categories OUTSIDE
of Interaction Design? The other specialities they presently handle
include fields such as Architecture; Art Direction; Design Management;
Industrial Design; and Motion Graphics. - JRR - This dilutes IxDA message,
and is of questionable benefit, unless somehow tied to the fact that these
jobs are of an IxDA nature.
