Where to Advertise for Open Source Job Openings?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the plugged-into-the-network dept.

OS Jobs asks: "The startup I work at is looking for an IT maven to design and run a large cluster (1000s) of Linux machines. We are fully plugged into the open source philosophy and would like to build this cluster using only open source tools. We have advertised at most of the regular places including Monster, various LUGs, and so forth. In response to our ads we see people with industrial experience who know every proprietary product in existence, but almost none who are steeped in open source development. So my question to the Slashdot community is: Where should open-source conscious employers advertise their open-source friendly jobs?"

    You'd have to post it as a lament though.

    Man, I wish I could find some programmers as good as you guys for my positions starting at $95k with full medical and dental. It's amazing how many people turn down our 401k and stock option program, especially with the incredible opportunities for advancement.

    Anyway, you make a good point about user mode autodetect with the current situation, although I still think in-kernel autodetect should be the goal.

    How about in your .sig for starters?

    so... what are the qualifications you're looking for? ;)
