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 politely decline, I thought offering a web board focused on web development jobs would be more useful. Yes, there are many other boards that have come up in the past couple of years, but I might be able to do something different.
Pricing
I plan on keeping the postings and main system free for use, though I reserve the right to remove spam/mass posting.
Future plans
I have a somewhat unique opportunity to also promote jobs via the podcast. I’d planned a webdevjob podcast some time ago, but have too many projects on my plate as it is. If this new jobs.webdevradio.com web development job board becomes useful for enough people, I will revisit the jobs podcast idea again.
Category specificity
I’ve got categories for PHP, .NET, Java, etc. I’m wondering if this is the best way to go, considering that many positions do require multiple tech. Is this too narrow of a focus? Or do you still think of jobs as primarily a Java job, even if some Python may be involved, for example?
Please post any open positions
If your company has any openings, please consider posting (or reposting) them at jobs.webdevradio.com. I’m looking to have a few base jobs in many of the categories before I announce it on the webdevradio.com podcast. As I said before, this may turn in to more of a hybrid job service, with a podcast series to go with it as well.
Thanks!
