Well put, Javier. I personally don't see any need for this mailing list to duplicate opportunities which are already listed on job search websites. Those who prefer to receive job listings in their inbox rather than actively trawling the sites are likely signed up to receive relevant postings matching search keywords (e.g. Melbourne + Python).
I agree with what seems to be the general sentiment: employers who prefer to engage directly with our community - and in sufficient detail - are very much welcome to post; with extra warm fuzzy feelings toward those who are already members of community for reasons of genuine personal interest. -Lee Beer From: Javier Candeira [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, 26 February 2015 11:59 AM To: Melbourne Python Users Group Subject: Re: [melbourne-pug] Job Opportunity - Software Engineer/Developer (Python) I think there is a difference between a job offer on a community list and a recruiter non-offer. Job offers that I can remember came from the BOM, Medibank, Biarri, Graeme Gumnow. They spoke of the stack being used, the kind of job, and often a clear salary expectation. They were also by someone who was part of the community and could engage in meaningful discussion. These type of job leads are great, and I think should be very welcome on this list. The ad we are discussing now: - Does not mention an employer, or even an activity - Does not mention a tech stack - Has a salary bracket so wide as to be meaningless - Is by someone who won't discuss the job or the employer, and does not form part of the MPUG community. For that, anybody interested or looking for a job can do a search themselves on Seek or Monster for Python/Melbourne. There is zero loss to the community in keeping this type of messages off the list. I repeat my request that these messages not be approved, following the criteria that I set in the previous recruiter thread.
