The other day, CNN had a story on working at Google. Out of curiosity, I went to the Google employment web site (I'm not looking, but just curious). In perusing their job posts for statisticians, preference is given to those who use R and python. Other languages, S-Plus and something called SAS were listed as lower priorities.
When I started using Python, I noted they have a portion of the web site with job postings. CRAN does not have something similar, but think it might be useful. I think R is becoming more widely used in industry and I wonder if helping it move along a bit, the maintainer of CRAN could create a section of the web site devoted to jobs where R is a requirement. Hence, we could have our own little "monster.com" kind of thing going on. Of the multitude of ways the gospel can be spread, this is small. But, I think every small step forward is good. Anyone think this is useful?
