I’m starting a new series today over at http://phpjobbook.com which will cover a number of job boards that are useful to PHP developers (in other words, they have listings for PHP jobs). If you’ve got a favorite job board you’ve used with good results, let me know!

Web development job board update
May 6, 2008
I put up a job board for web developers which I’m going to promote in a webdevradio podcast shortly (likely tomorrow) which I hope will get the word out a bit more. I’ve got a couple ideas on promoting it, and also for a couple variations on the idea as opposed to the open-ended [...]
WebDevRadio podcast series - Interview with Brian Moon on scaling LAMP
May 3, 2008
This is the last in my MySQL conference series. Brian Moon, author of Phorum and Sr Developer at Dealnews.com, sat down and gave a recap of his two presentations. We have here nearly a full hour of his insights in to PHP/MySQL scalability, both with an app like Phorum and a more complex environment like [...]
New jobs board at jobs.webdevradio.com
April 29, 2008
I’ve been meaning to do this some time, and finally found the time to do it - jobs.webdevradio.com is up and functional (though quite empty at this point!) One of the things I mentioned on my podcast (webdevradio.com) one more than one occasion is that I tend to attract recruiters. Rather than just [...]
New PHP job resource
March 31, 2008
I just chatted with Manuel Lemos of phpclasses.org fame. He’s recently launched a new PHP professionals center aimed at matching up PHP developers with people looking for specific skills. The premise is simple - sign up, add your skill history (easier to do than I’ve seen with other systems) and you’re done. The idea is [...]
Recruiting companies focused on web software
February 13, 2008
Are there recruiting companies that focus specifically on web technology professionals? Some headhunters will focus on certain verticals - financial, biotech, etc. Many recruiters tend to focus on particular geographic niches - cities, regions, etc. And when talking with some recruiting companies, I get the sense that certain recruiters in a company [...]
Raleigh web job market
October 25, 2007
If you’re in the Raleigh area and are looking for a job in the web development market, give me a holler - I’ve had recruiters calling night and day. AND they’re not all calling with the same position. That used to happen once in a while - I’d have calls from three recruiters that were [...]
Mandriva upgrade - ouch
October 12, 2007
Actually, the ‘upgrade’ wasn’t an upgrade so much as a switch back. I’ve been on ubuntu from dapper through fiesty, and switched over to mandriva 2008 yesterday. I thought I’d backed everything up, but I’d forgot a few things.
Everything in /var
doesn’t sound like much, except that’s where my development php code was, as well as [...]
mensa on my mind (and resume)
October 10, 2007
I was talking to a recruiter the other day (I’ve been contacted a whole lot lately for some reason) and she asked about the reference to “mensa” in my extracurricular/other section. I’m not even 100% sure why I put that there - I haven’t updated that section in a while. I asked her if it [...]
LAMP software architect - top 10 on google!
October 1, 2007
I got a call the other day from a recruiter looking to get me to move to the US Virgin Islands. I was a bit curious where she’d found my resume, so I looked in my logs to see the referrer info. She’d typed in lamp software architect - no quotes or anything. My resume [...]
